Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well ramucirumab and pembrolizumab work in treating EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer that has come back (recurrent) or spread to other places in the body (metastatic) while on systemic therapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ramucirumab, a drug which has anti-angiogenic and pleotropic immunomodulatory effects and may synergize with the effect of an anti-PD-1 agent. The study investigates the effect of targeted anti-antitumor activity of immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab and immune-suppressive activity of VEGF-inhibitor ramicirumab to evaluate the efficacy and the tolerability of the combination.
This trial studies how well endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle-aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) with suction works in obtaining samples from patients with suspected lung cancer that has spread to the nodal. EBUS-TBNA samples obtained with additional suction may help to improve material-amounts and decrease blood contamination in the samples.
This study evaluates whether it is safe to Focused Ultrasound Ablation (FUSA) treatments with and without PD-1 blockade and with and without intratumoral poly-ICLC. A device called the Echopulse will be used for the FUSA therapy. Patients will be assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts depending on their disease and treatment status. In Cohort 1, patients will receive FUSA therapy while receiving PD-1 blockade therapy as part of standard clinical care treatment. In Cohort 2, patients who discontinue or are ineligible for PD-1 blockade therapy will undergo FUSA without concurrent systemic therapy, with the goal of utilizing the FUSA to boost the innate immune response. The optional secondary regimen will combine FUSA (+/- PD-1 blockade) with intratumoral poly-ICLC.
Anlotibib (AL3818) is a kind of innovative medicines approved by State Food and Drug Administration（SFDA:2011L00661） which was researched by Jiangsu Chia-tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Anlotinib is a kinase inhibitor of receptor tyrosine with multi-targets, especially for VEGFR2、VEGFR3、PDGFRβ and c-Kit. It has the obvious resistance to new angiogenesis. The trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential anlotinib followed by EP regimen plus concurrent radiotherapy for unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).
Crizotinib is a first-generation ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (ITK-ALK). It is the standard first-line treatment for patients with advanced NSCLC with ALK gene rearrangement. Alectinib, ceritinib and brigatinib are second-generation ITK-ALK. They have been shown to be effective in the first line of treatment in randomized trials. Alectinib has shown superiority to crizotinib as the first line of treatment in three randomized therapeutic trials, positioning this ITK-ALK as the treatment of choice in first-line treatment. Despite the effectiveness of these new treatments, all patients will virtually experience a relapse. There is no data on second-generation TKI-ALK resistance mechanisms when given as first-line treatment and the best therapeutic strategy for progression is undefined.
Immunotherapeutic approaches targeting immune checkpoint proteins PD-1/PD-L1 have recently demonstrated clinical efficacy in several cancer types, and have changed the therapeutic landscape in metastatic melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The monoclonal anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab has been registered by both FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and EMA (European Medicine Agency), for metastatic NSCLC patients, after failure of a prior platinum-based chemotherapy. The approval was based on the results of phase III clinical trials in metastatic NSCLC. But all the trials only enrolled patients with good general condition, PS (Performance Status) 0 or 1. However, the prevalence of poor PS patients at time of diagnosis is high in lung cancer patients. For patients with metastatic NSCLC and PS 3, there is no standard treatment except best supportive care, since all trials that accrued unselected PS 3 patients fail to prove any survival advantage, and most PS >3 patients die within 2 to 4 months from diagnosis. Indeed, these patients are currently excluded from clinical trials. Specific dedicated clinical trials and treatment guidelines for this patient population are urgently needed, taking into account for the high prevalence of such patients.
This study is a randomized, controlled, open-label, prospective, single-center phase II clinical study. Target population is patients with stage II and IIIA resectable non-small cell lung cancer who had not received systemic chemotherapy. Study objective is to evaluate the major pathologic response of SHR-1210 + carboplatin + paclitaxel-albumin in subjects with resectable non-small cell lung cancer. SHR-1210 is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody.
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancer diseases, globally and locally. Several health benefits of increased physical activity (PA) have been reported for people with cancer. PA plays a critical role across the cancer trajectory, from prevention through to post-diagnosis and has been proposed as an alternative for improving physical and psychosocial health outcomes, reducing cancer recurrence, and cancer-specific and all-cause mortality. Although there are a variety of exercise intervention programs for cancer patients, those programs were quite intensive, requiring individuals to commit extra time and effort. Feeling of overwhelmed appointments, lack of time, other barriers, including high cost and limited access to facilities are the most frequently reported barriers that prevent people from starting and maintaining exercise. Hence, the investigators propose to use a brief messaging lifestyle modification intervention program to incorporating simple and easy-to-do patient-centred home-based lifestyle-integrated exercise into daily activities of patients with lung cancer. The aims are to increase patients' physical activity and improve their fatigue, emotion and quality of life, compared to the control group.
This is a randomized, active-controlled, parallel-group, double-blind Phase II trial, of oral restorative microbiota therapy (RMT) or placebo combined with intravenous (IV) durvalumab (MEDI4736) plus chemotherapy in patients with treatment naïve advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
Lung cancer is the leading cause of deaths in the world. Engagement in physical activity can provide important benefits for cancer patients. The current study is a cross-sectional questionnaire survey and in-depth interview to understand the physical activity preferences of patients with lung cancer. This process could help to develop a lifestyle modification program based on our patients' needs and preferences.
