Filter by:Non Small Cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains the first cause of death by cancer in the World. For the patients presenting a NSCLC stage IV, the median of survival is about 15 months today. The chemotherapy with platinum is the standard treatment for these patients but immunotherapy showed these efficacy in 1st line for patients PD-L1 positive. On the other hand, the duration of treatment by immunotherapy is not clear. Indeed, prolonged responses and long survivals have been described in patients having interrupted the treatment. In the melanoma, a treatment of 6 months of ipilimumab demonstrated its efficacy. The objective of the study is to demonstrate that a treatment of 6 months followed by an observation (stop and go) is not less effective than a treatment given until progression or toxicity. This strategy would allow to decrease the accumulated toxicities, to improve the quality of life of the patients and to decrease the costs.
A safe and effective surgical environment is important for nonintubated thoracoscopic surgery. The investigators hypothesize that mini-dose succinylcholine can induce ultra-short period of apnea, by which the ventilatory responses to open pneumothorax were abolished and may facilitate rapid and satisfying collapse of the operated lung during nonintubated thoracoscopic surgery.
This study has 2 parts. The first part was open to adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The second part was open also to adults with other types of advanced cancer of the lung, brain, skin, and liver. After early encouraging results, more people with liver cancer can now take part in the study. The participants get a combination of two medicines called BI 836880 and ezabenlimab. BI 836880 is a type of an antibody that blocks new blood vessel formation. New blood vessels are needed by the tumour to continue growing. Ezabenlimab is an antibody that may help the immune system fight cancer (immune checkpoint inhibitor). The purpose of the first part of the study was to find out the highest dose of the BI 836880 that the participants can tolerate in combination with BI 754091. After the best dose of BI 836880 for the combination with ezabenlimab was found, it is used in the second part of the study. The purpose of the second part is to see whether the combination of BI 836880 and BI 754091 is able to make tumours shrink. The participants are in the study as long as they benefit from and can tolerate treatment. During this time, they get infusions of BI 836880 and ezabenlimab every 3 weeks. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
The investigators propose to study the carbonic anhydrase inhibition (acetazolamide) associated with concomitant radiochemotherapy in localized small cell lung cancer due to: 1. The over-expression of carbonic anhydrases in this type of cancer, 2. The Anti-tumor effect in preclinical acetazolamide in various tumor lines including neuroendocrine tumor lines, 3. The observed synergy between irradiation and inhibition of carbonic anhydrases, 4. Potential anti-tumor immune effect caused by decreased extracellular acidity.
Epidermal growth factor receptor Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR TKI) have been approved to treat NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation as first-line therapy. However, the acquired resistance of EGFR-TKI is a common and severe problem.The study explore the superiority of anti-angiogenesis drugs (Apatinib, endostatin, anlotinib) plus EGFR TKI versus single EGFR-TKI.
A Phase 1 Dose Escalation and Expanded Cohort Study Of PF-06821497 In The Treatment Of Adult Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC), Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) And Follicular Lymphoma (FL).
Based on the existing research results, Osimertinibi is effective not only for patients with sensitizing EGFR mutations, but also for other less common EGFR mutations. However, no studies have been done so far regarding the difference in efficacy of various EGFR mutation subtypes. Meanwhile, the presenting studies data of the safety and efficacy of Osimertinib as first-line therapy for NSCLC is very limited. Therefore, this study aims at assessing the safety and efficacy of Osimertinib as First-line therapy for patients with EGFR mutation-positive locally advanced or Metastatic Non-squamous NSCLC as well as the its difference in efficacy of various EGFR mutation subtypes.
The primary objective of this study is to compare Assay results to diagnoses determined by currently accepted standards for lung cancer detection. This will be accomplished by analysis of sputum samples from three cohorts including healthy Participants, high risk Participants, and cancer patient Participants using the Assay as developed in accordance with findings of bioAffinity protocol BA-001 to confirm assay results. Adjustments will be made as necessary to finalize Assay design for clinical trials and commercialization. The secondary objective of this study is to determine optimum methods for collection of sputum samples. Three sputum collection methods used by high risk Participants will be compared. Individuals at high risk for lung cancer will be assigned to one of three sputum collection cohorts including (1) acapella® airway assist device under medical supervision to obtain a single sputum sample; (2) acapella® airway assist device to obtain a sputum sample over a three-day period, and (3) individuals who under medical supervision will collect a single sputum sample assisted by nebulization of between 0.9% to 10% hypertonic saline. Samples will be compared to determine the optimal collection method for sample analysis by CyPath® Lung.
AZD9291 Early Access Program (EAP) was available in Taiwan during October 2015 to September 2016, a time period before the approval of AZD9291, to supply the unlicensed AZD9291 for the NSCLC patients who received at least one prior EGFR TKI therapy. At the end of September 2016, more than 450 patients have been under AZD9291 treatment through the EAP. This observational study aims to evaluate the clinical benefit of AZD9291 treatment for these patients who were in the EAP
This was a study to investigate the potential clinical benefit of G1T38 as an oral therapy in combination with osimertinib in patients with EGFR mutation-positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. The study was an open-label design, planned to consist of 2 parts: a safety, pharmacokinetic, and dose-finding portion (Part 1), and a randomized portion (Part 2). Both parts were to include 3 study phases: Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and Survival Follow-up Phase. The Treatment Phase began on the day of first dose with study treatment and completes at the Post-Treatment Visit. Approximately, 144 patients were planned to be enrolled in the study.
