Filter by:Postoperative pneumonia is one of the most common complications after lung cancer surgery and associated with a morbidity and mortality. Postoperative lymphopenia has been recently identified as one of risk factors for postoperative pneumonia. According to recent studies in polytrauma, cancer or septic shock, T cells dysfunction may be related to high expression of inhibitory receptors on lymphocytes.
At present, with the increasing intensities of the tobacco industry and air pollution in China, the incidence and mortality of lung cancer have become the most important issue that threatens human health.Over the past two decades, the treatment of SCLC still stays in the mode of treatment based on radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This is a prospective, single-center, one-arm clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib plus chemotherapy for second-line and above treatment of advanced SCLC. 30 patients will receive apatinib 500mg qd orally, if the patient has a grade 3/4 adverse reaction during apatinib treatment, it can be reduced to apatinib 250mg qd orally.The dose was later reduced from 500 mg to 250 mg per day based on a recommendation of the principal investigator to reduce the adverse events. Chemotherapeutic agents are limited to irinotecan or docetaxel alone.The primary outcome endpoint was progression-free survival
To determine if the addition of vancomycin to SBRT increases a Th1 immune response measured by cytokine expression (IFN gamma)
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of autologous dendritic cell-adenovirus CCL21 vaccine (CCL21-gene modified dendritic cell vaccine) combined with intravenous pembrolizumab, and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving CCL21-gene modified dendritic cell vaccine with pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
The third generation epidermal growth gactor receptor-tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor（EGFR-TKI） osimertinib has obvious curative effect for EGFR sensitive mutation and T790M mutation(PMID 27959700), but acquired drug resistance will occur. Previous studies show that apoptosis escape can lead to EGFR-TKI resistance.Osimertinib resistant cells show abnormal activation of PI3K/AKT/BIM activation(PMID 28765329). The classical drug aspirin can effectively decrease AKT phosphorylation and activate of BIM(PMID 28881293).So Investigators speculate that aspirin may decrease the PI3K/AKT/BIM signaling pathways, then promote osimertinib resistant cells apoptosis. The current study aims to evaluate the combination of aspirin and osimertinib in patients with EGFR/T790M mutations.
This is a Phase II, non-randomized, open-label study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of dabrafenib and trametinib in stage IV disease to subjects with BRAF V600E mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Subjects will receive dabrafenib 150 mg bid and trametinib 2 mg once daily in combination therapy and continue on treatment until disease progression, death, or unacceptable adverse event.
The study's hypothesis is that using Nivolumab as early switch maintenance, after 4-6 cycles of standard first-line chemotherapy, might improve survival in patients with advanced stage squamous NSCLC.
This experiment has now collected 50 cases, all through CT chest scans and blood exosome detection. Twenty-two patients underwent surgical treatment and 14 tissue specimens were examined for cancer and paracancerous tissue exosomesWe found that exosomal micor-A was highly expressed in early stage lung cancer tissues and was significantly higher than paracancerous tissues. The micor-A in the adjacent tissues was significantly higher than that in peripheral blood exosomes
Some patients with limited disease small-cell lung cancer (LD SCLC) are cured after chemo-radiotherapy, but the majority relapse and die from their cancer. Better therapy is needed. Immunotherapy represents the largest advance in cancer therapy in recent years and has demonstrated promising activity in SCLC. In this study we will investigate whether atezolizumab prolongs survival in LD SCLC patients who have undergone chemo-radiotherapy.
This study is designed to identify the target Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) population(s) that overexpress c-Met (c-Met+) best suited for telisotuzumab vedotin therapy in the second line or third line setting (Stage 1) and then to expand the group(s) to further evaluate efficacy in the selected population(s) (Stage 2). After the Stage 2 global enrollment is completed, an additional cohort at an alternate dose level will evaluate the safety and efficacy of telisotuzumab vedotin (Stage 3).
