Filter by:This is a non-randomized, open-label, single-center, phase II trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of surgery or radiotherapy after PD-L1 inhibitor (TQB2450) and chemotherapy induction therapy followed by maintenance therapy as first-line treatment in patients limited-stage SCLC.
This is a double-blind randomized controlled trial evaluating the effect of perioperative dual bronchodilator therapy on post-operative pulmonary function and health-related quality of life (QoL) in mild-to-moderate less symptomatic COPD patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. Investigators hypothesized that dual bronchodilator, as compared with placebo, would prevent reduction of pulmonary function after surgical resection and improve postoperative health related QoL.
prophylactic cranial irradiation （PCI）was verified to decrease the brain metastases rates and improve the overall survival（OS）for patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer.We hypothesis that patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer after chemotherapy and thoracic radiation can also benefit from PCI.
Accessing nodules located in the most outer part of the lung is challenging. Tissue that will be removed from the lung will be used to see if we can reach and see the nodule with a very small camera. This camera that may reach in the smaller and outer airways is called a composite optical fiberscope (COF). The purpose of this study is to evaluate insertion ability of the COF and visualization of the lung tumor by the COF. In order to do so, we plan to evaluate 50 patient samples from the University Health Network over the span of 2 years.
The hypothesis for this study is that addition of a moderate dose of radiotherapy to the primary tumor and mediastinal nodes after three months of medical treatment could reduce the tumor burden, partly as an abscopal effect, and thereby improving quality of life and possible also prolonging survival for stage IV NSCLC.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Camrelizumab plus chemotherapy in the treatment of adult participants with medically inoperable Stage I or IIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
A Phase II study of the BRAF inhibitor Encorafenib in combination with the MEK inhibitor Binimetinib in Patients with BRAFV600E-mutant metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
This phase II randomized study is to investigate the efficacy and toxicity of fractional thoracic radiotherapy combined with albumin bound paclitaxel and nedaplatin twice a week in the treatment of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer compared with weekly chemotherapy.
About 20%-40% of NSCLC patients develop intracranial metastases, and most clinical studies suggest that the survival of lung cancer patients will be significantly shortened once they develop intracranial metastases. EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) remain the standard first-line therapy for patients with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC, including brain metastases(EGFR BMs). The survival rate of NSCLC patients with EGFR BMs was significantly improved compared with that of mutation-free patients. Third-generation EGFR-TKIs have unique advantages in the treatment of NSCLC BMs due to their improved blood-brain barrier permeability, and with the development of radiotherapy technology, stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) has also demonstrated its remarkable qualities of high efficiency and low toxicity in a limited number of intracranial metastases. The clinical mechanisms of resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKIs are far more complex than those of first-generation TKIs, and the treatment paradigm for disease progression including intracranial progression is challenging. It would be interesting to design prospective clinical studies of patients with EGFR BMs treated with the third-generation TKIs followed by salvage SRT for oligo-progression. Therefore, the investigator designed this prospective, phase II clinical study of intracranial oligo-progression applied with stereotactic radiotherapy as salvage therapy in EGFR BMs patients after failure of the third-generation EGFR-TKIs.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the country, surpassing deaths caused by colorectal, prostate and breast cancers combined. Veterans are at higher risk of lung cancer due to the higher rate of smoking and environmental toxin exposures. The lack of effective therapy for lung cancer provides the impetus to search for alternative, safe, and effective treatment agents to improve treatment strategy against lung cancer, enhance the probability of a cure and reduce recurrence. Based on encouraging preclinical and clinical findings from an early phase I lung cancer prevention study, using a special formulation of a standardized grape seed extract with enhanced absorption called leucoselect phytosome (LP), the purpose of this new CSR&D Merit Review project is to evaluate the potential usefulness of LP for pre-surgical treatment of early stage lung cancer patients in a phase IIa clinical trial. Findings from this study may set the stage for larger, confirmatory trials in the near future.
