Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if the commonly administered chemotherapeutic agents including cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin, docetaxel and gemcitabine for solid tumors in clinical oncology, either a single format or given as combinations followed by surgery are effective in the treatment of relapsed and refractory non-small cell lung cancer patients.
The purpose of this study is to test PT-112 in Combination with Docetaxel in Subjects with Advanced Solid Tumor in a Phase I Dose Escalation Study and in Subjects with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of cell therapy using Precision Cell Immunotherapy to treat Advanced Lung Cancer. Eligibility: Individuals greater than or equal to 18 years of age and less than or equal to 65 years of age who have been diagnosed with Advanced Lung Cancer.
Objectives: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of cell therapy using precision cells to treat Advanced Lung Cancer. Eligibility: Individuals greater than or equal to 18 years of age and less than or equal to 65 years of age who have been diagnosed with Advanced Lung Cancer.
This is a Phase II, multicentre, open-label, randomized, and controlled study, evaluating the efficacy and safety of combined modularized treatment of treosulfan, pioglitazone and clarithromycin in patients with with squamous and non- squamous cell lung cancer, respectively after platin failure.
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancer and the leading causes of cancer death in worldwide. Approximately 80% of NSCLC were inoperable. The prognosis of patients with LA-NSCLC remains disappointing. Investigators hypothesized that use of simultaneous integrated boost intensity modulated radiotherapy (SIB-IMRT) technology can safety increasing the radiation dose and benefit for inoperable NSCLC patients.
Treatment of a stage IV NSCLC is based on chemotherapy and requires before each session to check clinically, biologically and radiologically absence of infection. This biological evaluation is based on the CRP rate. Lots of infections may occur in this situation and could reduce by three the patient's life duration. However it is very important to make as early as possible a correct diagnosis of infection. CRP rate is classically higher for those patients even without any infection. In comparison with CRP, Procalcitonin (PCT) is well-known for its better sensibility and specificity for the infection diagnosis but has never been study in case of active cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate the Procalcitonin basal rate for those patients suffering from NSCLC. It could be a simple and reliable method to use. So the investigators decided to include each new patient with NSCLC stage IV coming for his first-line chemotherapy without any infection sign, and to realize a Procalcitonin dosage before the start of the treatment. This sample will be analyzed at the chemical laboratory and the result will not be communicated to the patient physician. A new clinical evaluation will be realized either at the hospital or by phone at day 7 to search any sign of infection. In absence of infection, patient will be reevaluated at day 14, 21 and 30. In case of infection, a new Procalcitonin (and CRP) dosage will be performed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the concordance between Positron E mission tomography parametric imaging versus standard PET for the 1 year prognosis of patients with NSCLC treated by radiochemotherapy. The ancillary study will evaluate the interest of parametric PET imaging during the treatment (around 42 Gray) to detect the local relapse of the lesion in order to propose a treatment re-planification or intensification (not realized on the present study).
This is an open-label positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) study to investigate the diagnostic performance and evaluate the efficacy of 68Ga-NOTA-3PTATE-RGD in lung cancer patients and neuroendocrine neoplam patients. A single dose of 111-185 Mega-Becquerel (MBq) 68Ga-NOTA-3P-TATE-RGD will be injected intravenously. Visual and semiquantitative method will be used to assess the PET/CT images.
Sarcoma which has spread to the lungs is most often treated with surgery. Even with surgery, most patients will not be cured and will die from their disease, probably because of small cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, but cannot be seen or detected. It is for this reason that we are looking for a better treatment. Giving chemotherapy after surgery is generally not recommended because it has significant side effects and no benefit has been proven. This study is investigating a new technique for delivering chemotherapy directly into the lungs at the time of surgery. Delivering chemotherapy directly to the lungs could potentially kill any microscopic cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, while sparing other major organs in the body from the side effects of chemotherapy. This technique is called In Vivo Lung Perfusion (IVLP). This is a Phase I, non-randomized, dose escalation study that will act as a pilot study for a larger prospective, multicenter, controlled clinical trial. Patients who have bilateral disease will have one lung undergo IVLP and the other lung will remain untreated with the IVLP (the other lung will be treated as current standard of care - either surgery or radiation) as a control lung. The patients will undergo a posterolateral thoracotomy. Lung metastases will be identified by visualization or palpation. After surgical isolation of the lung by proximal control of pulmonary artery and veins, IVLP will be initiated. After 3 hours of IVLP, the lung metastases will be removed in the usual fashion. Patients will be cared for post-surgery according to institutional standards. The patients will be followed for up to 2 years. The primary endpoint is safety. Secondary endpoints include additional safety endpoints and efficacy.
