Filter by:Rationale: Pemetrexed is a multi-targeted folate antagonist, which is primarily indicated for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and mesothelioma. Dosing of cytotoxic agents like pemetrexed requires balancing the dual risk of sub-therapy and toxicity. Administration of pemetrexed to patients with a creatinine clearance <45 ml/min is currently not advised. Pemetrexed is dosed based on body surface area (BSA), while renal function and dose are the sole determinants for systemic exposure. This causes 3 major issues: 1. In patients with renal dysfunction, BSA-based dosing may lead to haematological toxicity 2. Patients have to discontinue treatment due to declining renal function, and are withheld effective treatment 3. Even in patients with adequate renal function (GFR >45 ml/min) treatment may be improved by individualized dosing based on renal function, resulting in less toxicity. Also, BSA-based dosing may lead to ineffective therapy in patients with above average renal function. The investigators aim to address these problems. Objective: The overall main objective is to develop a safe and effective individualized dosing regimen for pemetrexed. Study design: IMPROVE-III is an explorative microdosing study to assess the extrapolability of microdose-pharmacokinetics to the pharmacokinetics of a therapeutic dose. Study population: IMPROVE-III includes 10 patients of IMPROVE-I and/or IMPROVE-II. Intervention: patients will be administered a microdose with subsequent pharmacokinetic assessment. Main study endpoints: The predictive performance of microdosing to predict full dose pharmacokinetics

Objective: The overall main objective is to develop a safe and effective individualized dosing regimen for pemetrexed. Study design: IMPROVE-II is an open label, double arm, randomized study to compare renal function-based dosing of pemetrexed versus BSA-based dosing on attainment of therapeutic exposure. Study population: IMPROVE-II includes 94 patients with NSCLC or mesothelioma that are eligible for pemetrexed treatment. Intervention: patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Arm A (BSA-based dosing according drug label) or to Arm B (renal function based dosing). The renal function-based dose will be calculated to reach the target AUC. Pharmacokinetic assessment after administration will be performed after the first pemetrexed dose in both arms. Main study endpoints: The fraction (percentage) of patients with attainment of therapeutic exposure with BSA-based dosing versus renal function-based dosing. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: The investigators consider the extra burden from participating in the planned studies limited. The extra interventions compared to routine care, consist of sampling extra blood. The pharmacokinetic assessments require placement of one additional intravenous catheter. To ensure minimal impact of study participation on daily life, a limited sampling strategy will be used. Patients may benefit from participating in IMPROVE I and -II, as they will be treated with a potentially safe and effective drug that is dosed individually, which prevents toxic exposure.
Create a living biobank of PDOs from Stage I-III lung cancer patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Apatinib Combined With Vinorelbine Used for Driver Gene Mutation Negative Third-line and Third-line Posterior Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCAGN02390 in participants with select advanced malignancies.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of apatinib mesylate tablets and chemotherapy drug Irinotecan in treatment of recurrent SCLC stage IIIB&IV patients. It is a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Pilot study of an exercise program among patients with all stages of lung cancer examining feasibility and acceptability. Preliminary outcomes include objective measures of physical function, depression, adherence to lung cancer treatments, Quality of Life (QOL), and social support.
Radiomics is an attractive field in objectively quantifying image features, and may overcome the subjectivity of visually interpreting computed tomography (CT), or positron emission tomography (PET). It is reported that the features related to treatment response, outcomes, tumor staging, tissue identification, and cancer genetics. Therefore, the investigators try to explore the key features for the outcome of lung cancer patients.
This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of Erlotinib/Gefitinib combined with bevacizumab in the real world for advanced non-squamous cell lung cancer with EGFR mutation, explore new drug resistance mechanisms under the A+T regimen and consistency between plasma and tissue detection driving genes, and finally assess the predictive value of plasma dynamic detection driving gene mutation profiles in predicting disease. The role of disease progression risk.
The purpose of this trial was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of capmatinib in combination with spartalizumab in adult participants with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) wild type (for exon 19 deletions and exon 21 L858R substitution mutations), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement negative in locally advanced (stage IIIB, not eligible for definitive chemo-radiation) or metastatic (stage IV) Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after failure of platinum doublet and checkpoint inhibitor treatment.
