Filter by:This is a phase 2, multi-center, single dose, open-label, exploratory study in suspected lung cancer patients scheduled to undergo endoscopic or thoracic surgery per CT/positron emission tomography imaging based on standard of care. This study aims to assess the efficacy of OTL38 and Near Infrared Imaging (NIR) at identifying pulmonary nodules within the operating theater, and to assess the safety and tolerability of single intravenous doses of OTL38.
People who may be at increased risk of lung cancer due to age and smoking history will be invited to participate in this international study to determine the best way of using computed tomography (CT) of the chest to screen for early lung cancer. Overseas data show that CT screening (screening tests can find diseases early, when they're easier to treat) can reduce deaths from lung cancer and this study will help determine who is most likely benefit from screening.
A study to evaluate the safety of Nivolumab given in combination with Ipilimumab in patients with advanced cancers. The initial group will enroll patients with newly diagnosed Stage 4 or non-small cell lung cancer that has come back.
This study looked at how effective the study drug (tepotinib) was at stopping the growth and spread of lung cancer. This study also measures a number of other things including safety of the study drug and the side effects, how body processes the study drug, or how the study drug affects your quality of life. The study also has an optional pharmacogenetic research part. Pharmacogenetic research is an important way to try to understand the role of genetics in human disease and how genes impact the effectiveness of drugs, because differences in genes can change the way a person responds to a particular drug.
Objectives: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of cell therapy using precision cells to treat Advanced Lung Cancer. Eligibility: Individuals greater than or equal to 18 years of age and less than or equal to 65 years of age who have been diagnosed with Advanced Lung Cancer.
Background: Mithramycin is a new cancer drug. In another study, people with chest cancer took the drug 6 hours a day for 7 straight days. Many of them had liver damage as a side effect. It was discovered that only people with certain genes got this side effect. Researchers want to test mithramycin in people who do not have those certain genes. Objectives: To find the highest safe dose of mithramycin that can be given to people with chest cancer who have certain genes over 24 hours instead of spread out over a longer period of time. To see if mithramycin given as a 24-hour infusion shrinks tumors. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have chest cancer that is not shrinking with known therapies, and whose genes will limit the chance of liver damage from mithramycin Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood and urine tests - Lung and heart function tests - X-rays or scans of their tumor - Liver ultrasound - Tumor biopsy - Participants will be admitted to the hospital overnight. A small plastic tube (catheter) will be inserted in the arm or chest. They will get mithramycin through the catheter over about 24 hours. - If they do not have bad side effects or their cancer does not worsen, they can repeat the treatment every 14 days. - Participants will have multiple visits for each treatment cycle. These include repeats of certain screening tests. - After stopping treatment, participants will have weekly visits until they recover from any side effects.
This pilot trial studies the side effects of giving pembrolizumab together with stereotactic radiosurgery to treat patients with melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving pembrolizumab together with stereotactic radiosurgery may be a better treatment for patients with melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
This randomized phase III trial studies how well management of a tobacco treatment intervention works in reducing surgical complications in patients with newly diagnosed lung cancer who smoke cigarettes. Management of a tobacco treatment intervention compares varenicline (a drug that reduces the craving and withdrawal symptoms that occur with abstinence from nicotine) and behavioral interventions (consisting of a brief clinician-delivered intervention and tobacco quitline [tobacco cessation service available through a toll-free telephone number] follow-up) with placebo (a pill with no active medication) along with similar behavioral interventions. It is not yet known whether management of a tobacco treatment intervention is more effective in reducing surgical complications than placebo.
This is a prospective diagnostic pilot study to create hypotheses regarding immunocytochemistry (ICC) PD-L1 analysis of pleural effusions in NSCLC patients as compared to the reference standard of PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC). This comparison will be done to assess sensitivity and specificity of PD-L1 detection by ICC in pleural effusions.
This is a randomized, open-label, Phase 2 study of TAS-114 administered in combination with S-1, to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of the TAS-114/S-1 regimen in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC. The study will be conducted internationally in 2 regions: Asian [Japan] and Western [Europe and US]. Patients will be randomized into TAS-114/S-1 arm versus S-1 control arm in a 1:1 ratio.
