To Determine if SAbR improves survival over SR in High Risk Operable Stage I NSCLC
Background. During the clinical course of patients with locoregionally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) who have undergone aggressive treatment, brain metastasis (BM) is a frequent seen pattern of disease relapse, which cannot be ignored. It still remains unresolved whether prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) via whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) should be recommended for NSCLC patients with stage III or pathologically nodal positive disease. Actually, PCI would significantly decrease the incidence of BM; however, potential WBRT-related neurocognitive function (NCF) sequelae are indeed a concern, which has made PCI seldom applied in clinical practice. In terms of the time course of WBRT-induced NCF decline, it might vary considerably according to the specific domains which are selected to be measured. Early neurocognitive decline principally involve impairments of episodic memory, which has been significantly associated with functions of the hippocampus. This study thus aims to explore the impact of PCI on the subsequent risk of developing BM and the multi-domain neurobehavioral functions in our eligible patients. Methods. Potentially eligible subjects are postoperative NSCLC patients with a status of pathologically nodal metastasis (pN+). Patients randomly assigned to the PCI arm will undergo the course of hippocampal-sparing PCI after they complete the fourth course of adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. Radiotherapy dose will be 3000 cGy in 15 fractions during three weeks. Except for the administration of hippocampal-sparing PCI, patients assigned to the observation arm should receive the same baseline and follow-up brain imaging examinations and neurocognitive assessments as those in PCI arm. Accordingly, a battery of neuropsychological measures, which includes 7 standardized neuropsychological tests (e.g., executive functions, verbal & non-verbal memory, working memory, and psychomotor speed), is used to evaluate neurobehavioral functions for our registered patients. Expected results. This randomized controlled study aims to verify that the incidence of BM still can significantly be reduced by hippocampal-sparing PCI; additionally, NCF preservation regarding neurobehavioral assessments might also be achieved by hippocampal-sparing PCI as compared with the observation arm without PCI. No matter what the final results present, it is believed that this randomized controlled trial (RCT) will provide us solid evidence concerning the exact value of hippocampal-sparing PCI in our patient setting.
The investigators propose to create a database at the regional level, the principle is to include all patients in whom a mutation was detected from a single platform (Lille). The creation of this regional cohort, smaller than the national cohort of Biomarkers France, will perform a more comprehensive collection of clinical data, and molecular monitoring data of patients included. To increase the completeness of the collection of information, it will not be based on voluntary prescribing clinician but will be largely carried out by CRA dedicated to this activity.
The tumor associated CA-125antigen for diagnosis and follow-up of ovarian cancer was well defined. Increased serum CA125 level may have many diagnoses other than ovarian cancer, including breast, colorectal and lung cancer. 80% lung cancer patients were diagnosed at advanced stage. Malignant pleural effusion secondary to lung cancer represented the condition of cancer cell involved pleura. The CA-125 level may reflect the extent of tumor involved in pleura (tumor burden), it could be correlated with the prognosis. This study was performed to examine the properties of CA-125 by measuring pleural and blood CA-125 levels in lung cancer with or without malignant pleural effusion; meanwhile to examine whether the rate of decline in CA 125 during primary therapy as a surrogate indicator for survival.
The purpose of this study is studying induction nimotuzumab plus gemcitabine and carboplatin followed by surgery to see how well it works in treating patients with unresectable stage III squamous cell lung carcinoma.
Motive: In order to improve the treatment technique, a comprehensive follow-up program is needed to obtain all relevant patient, treatment and toxicity data from lung cancer patients. Goal: To set-up and maintain a database containing treatment results in terms of tumor control, side effects, complications and patient-reported quality of life. A standard database of patients receiving photon treatment will be created. These data are then linked to dose-volume data of radiotherapy, with the aim to build prediction models for both tumor control and toxicity after radio (chemo) therapy that can later be used for selecting patients for proton treatment.
The trial will assess the addition of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) to standard anti-cancer therapy (SACT) in patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be randomised to receive either standard treatment alone (SACT) or standard treatment with conventional radiotherapy (RT) and SABR.
In this clinical study, the investigators evaluate the efficacy and safety of S-588410 in patients who underwent an adjuvant chemotherapy after the complete resection of non-small-cell lung cancer.
The current standard of care for unresectable locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a combination of chemotherapy and thoracic radiotherapy (TRT). The standard regimens consist of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy.Icotinib(BPI-2009, Conmana) is the first self-developed small molecular drug in China for targeted therapy of lung cancer.Icotinib is a novel oral quinazoline compound that has proven survival benefit in Chinese patients with lung cancer,especially in EGFR mutation lung cancer. This randomised, multi-center, controlled trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of icotinib with concurrent radiotherapy versus pemetrexed + carboplatin with concurrent radiotherapy in inoperable stage III non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR mutation, the primary endpoint is progression-free survival.
