Filter by:The Manchester Lung Health Study (qUEST) will assess the uptake of a community-based lung cancer screening service and its impact across a deprived area of North and East Manchester, which has high rates of lung cancer. One measure will be to compare the number and stage of lung cancers detected through screening to those detected outside of screening. In addition we will investigate the potential of a blood and nose test to detect lung cancer or to help decide who would benefit from screening. We will also see if these samples can help with the interpretation of CT scans. One of the problems with lung cancer CT screening is that you detect lung nodules in which we are not sure if they are benign or cancerous. Therefore we are also looking to see if a biomarker can help us work out which are cancerous and which are benign.
A registry-based randomized screening phase II trial. A total of 68 patients with metastatic non small cell lung cancer on systemic therapy with oligoprogression to 1-5 extracranial lesions will be randomized using a 1:1 ratio to standard of care (begin next-line systemic therapy, best supportive care, continue current systemic line, based on treating physician decision) vs. receive stereotactic ablative radiotherapy to all oligoprogressive lesions while continuing their current systemic therapy.
Twenty years after KBP-2000-CPHG study and ten years after KBP-2010-CPHG study, the CPHG proposes to conduct a new epidemiological study on primary PLC in order to evaluate and analyze the changes that have occurred over the last decade. Primary endpoint: Estimate 1-year- and 5-year-mortality rates in patients with PLC. Secondary endpoints: - Describe PLC patient population managed by pulmonologists at French General Hospitals in 2020 - Describe PLC diagnostic and therapeutic management by pulmonologists at French General Hospitals in 2020 and compare them to KBP-2000-CPHG and KBP-2010-CPHG studies - Estimate prognostic factors - Compare patient and tumor characteristics to those observed for KBP-2010-CPHG and KBP-2000-CPHG studies - Compare observed survival rates to those reported for KBP-2000-CPHG and KBP-2010-CPHG studies
This is a nationwide, multicenter and prospective cohort study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the synergistic effect and safety of Elemene plus TKIs in EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
This is a single-arm, multi-center clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TQ-B3139 capsules in patients with MET gene abnormal advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
Neoantigen vaccine is a new field of research in tumor immunotherapy, and some studies have been conducted with success on Melanoma and glioblastoma. Nearly 80% of lung cancers are diagnosed in an advanced stage (IIIB, and IV) and EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer will be resistant after targeted drug treatment. Neoantigen vaccine is a new treatment method for lung cancer, especially for patients with drug resistance.
The investigators hypothesize that a personalized neoantigen vaccine combined with durvalumab will improve the progression free survival of patients with extensive state small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
Various driver gene mutations have been identified in lung cancer. Among them, human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) was identified in approximately 2% of non-small-cell lung cancers. Pyrotinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting both HER-1 and HER-2 receptors. This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label phase II study, designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib combined with thalidomide in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patients with HER2 exon 20 insertions.
This is a phase II, non-randomised study examining the safety of treating high risk centrally located non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumours and single pulmonary oligometastatic lesions using radiation therapy (RT), for patients whose disease is inoperable. The method of delivering the RT in this study is image guided stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (IG-SABR). This method involves using imaging to ensure the radiation is being delivered to the correct location within the body and using higher than normal doses per treatment (fraction) to treat the lung cancer (NSCLC)/oligometastatic lung lesion. This study aims to determine its safety by looking at the number and severity of side effects. This study will deliver 8 treatments/fractions of RT with 7.5 Gy delivered in each fraction. To be eligible for this study the initial treatment plan for the patient must be shown to not fulfil certain criteria relating to doses to the tumour and surrounding normal tissue. This study has its own study specific criteria which must be adhered to. Translational sub-studies (optional) are open to patients in participating centres only. Patients will have the option to consent to participating in both translational studies or to neither.
Surgery is the first choice of treatment for early-stage primary pulmonary malignancies, but up to 15% of all patients, and 33% of patients greater than 75 years of age, are not surgical candidate's due to locally advanced disease, poor cardiopulmonary reserve and significant medical co-morbidities. Some patients are also unwilling to undergo surgery. This has prompted the development of alternatives to surgery so that local control of unresectable tumors can be achieved. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is currently an alternative therapy for these patients with 3-year survival rates of between 42 and 60%. SBRT has excellent local control rates and a favorable toxicity profile relative to other surgical and non-surgical therapies. Radiation pneumonitis (RP), amongst others, is one of the major toxicities which can limit the maximal radiation dose that can be safely delivered to thoracic tumors. Reported rates of SBRT induced RP requiring clinical intervention range from 0% to 29% and life-threatening toxicities have been reported in up to 12% of cases in various studies. The potential for toxicities from SBRT could limit the number of times a patient could be treated with SBRT for residual, recurrent or new pulmonary lesions over time. Following the first report of thermal ablation for lung malignancies in 2000, this modality has been used to treat primary and secondary malignancies and has emerged as an effective, low-cost, safe and repeatable alternative to SBRT for local tumour control. The most widely practised technique is radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Microwave ablation (MWA) is a relatively new therapy and offers all the advantages of RFA, but with significant additional advantages 3. These include reduced procedure times, lower complication rates, increased ablative temperatures, improved propagation of thermal energy particularly in the lung, improved efficacy in lesions that are in close proximity to blood vessels due to reduced heat-sink effect, and less procedure associated pain 2,3. Using high energy MWA to treat 87 pulmonary tumors, Egashira et al achieved a primary technical success rate of 94% and technique effectiveness of 98% at a median of 15 months. MWA is performed by Interventional Radiologists using CT guidance. The treatment is performed under general anaesthesia and is repeatable. Multiple lesions can be ablated in one treatment session. Patients can potentially be discharged the same day of treatment, if there are no adverse events. MWA is a relatively new treatment option that could be considered in situations where the patient is not a candidate for further treatment with surgery, SBRT or chemotherapy, or the patient declines the recommended standard available treatments. Objectives for Phase I: The primary objective for Phase I of this study will be to demonstrate the Safety of MWA performed for treatment of lung malignancy in patients not suitable for surgery, chemotherapy or SBRT. Primary objective (Safety): to determine the proportion of patients experiencing local adverse events at one week definitively related to the mwa procedure. Secondary objective (Feasibility): To determine the proportion of patients in whom technical success of MWA was achieved by assessing completion of ablation on CT at the time of the procedure, indicated by replacement of tumor by ground glass change (including a 5mm ablation zone in normal surrounding lung parenchyma). Objectives for Phase II Primary objective (Efficacy): To demonstrate efficacy by measuring the proportion of patients demonstrating absence of residual tumor on follow up CT at 1 month after MWA. Secondary objective: To determine the proportion of patients needing re-treatment for recurrent tumor at 1 month post MWA.
