Filter by:This is a multi-center, parallel group treatment, Phase 2/3 open label study evaluating cobolimab in combination with dostarlimab and docetaxel in participants with advanced Non-small cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who have progressed on prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy and chemotherapy.
Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in Austria with 2.868 men and 2.009 women diagnosed in 2016. Reflecting the high mortality of this disease, 2.415 men and 1.534 women died from lung cancer. Therefore, lung cancer is the most common reason for cancer associated death in men and second most common reason in women. This malignant disease can be divided into two main groups: small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC is a paradigm for personalized medicine, with an increasing number of targetable gene alterations. Despite this growing diversity of molecular subtypes, in most patients no targetable mutation can be detected. For these patients check-point inhibitors with or without chemotherapy is the mainstay of the initial tumor therapy. Until recently, little progress has been made in the treatment of SCLC in last decades. Recently, an overall survival benefit by the addition of an immune-checkpoint inhibitor to first-line chemotherapy for advanced SCLC has been reported. Despite the progress in the treatment of NSCLC, the performance of predictive biomarkers is weak. Therefore, the development of more precise prediction models is of great importance for the progress of personalized treatment strategies.
The prospective study aims to explore the value of total-body PET/CT dynamic imaging (uExplorer) in assessing tumor metabolic heterogeneity and predicting prognosis for patients with locally advanced, unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (stage III) treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus nivolumab and definitive concurrent chemoradiation therapy.
The aim of this study is to investigate the mechanisms underlying the complex interaction between Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer. Therefore, in order to identify a possible role of immune checkpoints not only in the susceptibility to COPD development but also in its evolution towards lung cancer, will be evaluate the correlation between PD-L1 expression and cigarette smoke exposure in COPD patients. Although there are many epidemiological studies highlighting the interconnections between COPD and lung cancer and the influence of cigarette smoke, the molecular bases of this association are less well defined. Initially they were thought to be driven just by innate inflammation, however, recent studies have also demonstrated the influence of the adaptive immune system. Despite this, the role of immune checkpoints in chronic lung inflammatory diseases such as COPD is less well understood. COPD is currently the 4th leading cause of death worldwide but is assessed to be the 3rd by the end of 2020 resulting in an economic and social burden that is in continuous progression.
This trial is a randomized, 2-arm, phase II study to determine the effect, if any, of the timing of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) relative to immune checkpoint inhibitor (IO) therapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread (metastasized) to the brain.
Background: About one-third to one-half of all people dying of extrathoracic malignant diseases have cancer that has spread to the lungs. Surgery may help some people. But most people with pulmonary metastases do not survive long. Researchers want to see if a combination of drugs can help. Objective: To find a safe dose of Azacytidine, when taken as a fine mist that is inhaled (aerosolized Azacytidine), together with Bintrafusp Alfa to treat cancers that have spread to the lungs. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have cancer that has spread to the lungs, cannot be cured with surgery, and has not responded to standard treatments. Design: Participants will get Azacytidine by breathing treatments once a day for 3 days each week, for 3 weeks. The 3-week period is 1 cycle. Each course of treatment is 3 cycles. Once per cycle, participants will get Bintrafusp Alfa via IV. An IV is a small tube that is put into an arm vein. Participants will keep a diary of any side effects. Participants can take the study drugs for as long as they can continue treatment. Participants will have medical histories and physical exams. They will give blood, urine, and lung lining fluid samples. Tumor samples will be taken via bronchoscopy. They will have lung function tests. Participants will have an imaging scan that shows how spray particles move in their airway when they inhale. They will have tumor imaging scans of the chest and brain. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after they stop treatment....
Cetuximab to reduce the amound of circulating tumor cells in early stage NSCLC
This is a phase I, single arm, open-label trial that will utilise a Time To Event Continual Reassessment Method (TiTE-CRM) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of atovaquone in combination with concurrent CRT in NSCLC. Twenty evaluable participants will be recruited at three centres.
SHR-1316 as Maintenance therapy for limited stage small cell lung cancer without progression after first line platinum based concurrent chemoradiotherapy
This is a phase Ib/II , open-label, multicenter single arm study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), and immunogenicity of AK104 combined with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed/ Paclitaxel as first-line therapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
