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 primary objective of this phase 1 trial is to determine the dose-dependent toxicity and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of oncolytic adenovirus-mediated cytotoxic gene therapy in combination with SBRT in medically inoperable stage I/IIA (T1A - T2B) NSCLC. To accomplish this objective, 9 subjects will be enrolled in the study. We hypothesize that the combined treatment will demonstrate acceptable toxicity, and that it will be feasible to quantify adenovirus-mediated HSV-1 TK gene expression in the lung by PET. This phase 1 trial will lay the foundation for a follow-up phase 2 trial designed to examine efficacy.
The study will investigate whether PD-L1 and other immuno-markers will be influenced by osimertinib treatment in advanced epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR）T790M positive advanced NSCLC patients. In addition, we will explore whether PD-L1 and other immuno-markers can predict the safety and efficacy of subsequent use of immune checkpoint inhibitors at the time of PD due to osimertinib resistance.
Investigators use a genome-wide approach within a case-control design to identify SNPs that show evidence of association with lung cancer risk and survival.
This study aimed to detect cell free DNA (cfDNA) in the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma, and to determine whether cfDNA can be used for concomitant diagnosis to improve the treatment efficacy and prognosis of patients with brain (meningeal) metastasis by monitoring tumor-related genetic mutations in cfDNA in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid.
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).
This phase I/Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of intrathecal nivolumab, and how well it works in combination with intravenous nivolumab in treating patients with leptomeningeal disease. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works in treating patients with stage IV lung cancer or that has come back after initial treatment who has high mutation loads. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells.
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effect of a preoperative rehabilitation program at home in patients resected for lung cancer, comparing a control group (C group) receiving only chest physiotherapy and a rehabilitation group (R group) receiving both a training program at home and chest physiotherapy
This active surveillance aims to collect the safety data of 100 NSCLC patients treated with nintedanib per the approved Indian label within 2 years from the date of commercial availability of the drug in India (23rd January 2017). The objective is to look at the safety of nintedanib in the real world setting.
