Filter by:Lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer related-deaths worldwide, with an overall all-stage 5-year survival of approximately 17%. The primary treatment of early stage (I-IIIA) NSCLC is curative surgery. Although patients treated with curative surgery have a better prognosis, the 5-year survival for patients treated with surgery alone remains low, ranging from 67% (stage IA) to 23% (stage IIIA). Several randomized trials comparing postoperative chemotherapy versus no chemotherapy have shown a significant overall survival benefit from postoperative chemotherapy in completely resected patients with NSCLC stage II and IIIA. Likewise other randomized trials have demonstrated preoperative chemotherapy improves survival and recently the analyses also based on individual patients data of 15 randomized trials showed a significant benefit of preoperative chemotherapy on survival with the same survival improvement of 5% at 5 years. Then, neoadjuvant chemotherapy has also become accepted in many countries. Targeting of PD-1 receptors and its ligand PD-L1, and inhibiting their engagement is an attractive therapeutic option in the early stage NSCLC, which may reactivate host immune responses and enable longterm tumor control.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of rovalpituzumab tesirine administered in combination with nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab in participants with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and evaluate the safety of delivering chemoradiotherapy, the usual approach to non-small cell lung cancer, in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3745), followed by consolidation pembrolizumab after surgical resection. Consolidation therapy is treatment given following the initial treatment. Pembrolizumab is an investigational drug (also known as Keytruda), which has been approved by the FDA for use in certain types of skin cancer (melanoma), and for use in certain types of head and neck cancer. However, it has not been approved for use in other cancers such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pembrolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to the surface of some cells of the immune system and activates them against cancer cells. It is not chemotherapy.
This is an open-label, multi-center clinical trial, aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination of oral Navelbine and Cisplatin followed by metronomic oral Navelbine in Patients with advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The study comprises two stages. In the 1st stage (Week 1-12), all patients will receive combination chemotherapy. In the 2nd stage (Week 13-25), patients who complete the combination chemotherapy with acceptable tolerance and have no progressive disease (PD) will be allocated into 2 arms, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of maintenance chemotherapy with metronomic oral Navelbine (Arm A) or other regimen (Arm B).
To characterize safety and tolerability and identify a recommended dose and regimen for the LXH254 in combination with LTT462 or trametinib or ribociclib.
Rationale: Completely resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with histologically confirmed N2 disease are a heterogeneous population. After complete resection and postoperative chemotherapy (POCT), 20%-40% of cases have a risk of locoregional recurrence (LRR). Postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) should be an integral component of the multidisciplinary treatment for patients with stage IIIA(N2) disease. Postoperative Radiotherapy (PORT)-first strategy may have an advantage of the early administration of locoregional therapy to the mediastinum, in which the tumor burden is presumed to be higher than that of systematic micrometastases. It is not yet known for subsets with specific prognostic factors that confer higher LRR risks, what is the optimal timing of PORT and how to integrate with POCT (in a sequential fashion or concurrent fashion) when PORT is considered for patients with completely resected stage IIIA(N2) NSCLC. Purpose: This randomized phase III trial is studying the optimal timing of PORT to evaluate whether the PORT-first strategy (PORT administered first with concurrent or subsequent POCT) may be more effective than the PORT-last strategy (PORT administered sequentially following POCT) in treating high risk of LRR patients with completely resected pathologic stage IIIA(N2) NSCLC.
The optimal prioritization of second-line chemotherapy and immune therapy based on demographic or biomarker data is an area of ongoing investigation. The hypothesis of this study is that there may be an additive or synergistic antitumor effect of combined chemotherapy and nivolumab in the second-line treatment of NSCLC as an important concept to test in a clinical trial. Previously treated NSCLC remains a setting of unmet clinical need despite recent clinical research progress. Early progression for a subset of NSCLC patients receiving nivolumab is a specific area of clinical need.
For the phase I component of the trial a classic 3 + 3 dose escalation design will be utilized, with a fixed dose of pembrolizumab and an escalating dose of the lenalidomide. The patient population will all have histologically confirmed advanced solid tumor malignancy. The primary endpoint for the phase I component of this protocol will be determining the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of lenalidomide in combination with pembrolizumab. The phase II component of this trial will utilize a two stage design, initially enrolling 13 patients, followed by 13 more patients if the early stopping criteria are not met. The target population will include patients with histologically confirmed diagnoses of non-small cell lung carcinoma, regardless of histologic subtype; who have completed one line of standard therapy. The primary endpoint for the phase II component of this protocol will be determining efficacy as measured by progression free survival (PFS)
This is a multi-institutional, randomized, open-label phase II study of pembrolizumab compared to topotecan, administered to patients with SCLC who have progressed or relapsed after first-line treatment with etoposide and platinum. Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 fashion to receive pembrolizumab or topotecan. Participants in the topotecan arm that progress will be allowed to cross-over to the pembrolizumab arm.
This phase II trial studies how well targeted therapy works in treating patients with incurable non-small cell lung cancer with a genetic mutation. Giving drugs that target other genetic mutations or other specific proteins may work better when a patient has cancer caused by a driver mutation and the treatment that targets that mutation stops working.
