Filter by:A retrospective observational longitudinal medical chart review study of randomly sampled patients diagnosed with advanced/metastatic NSCLC. The minimum observational period for each patient will be 12 months.
Dose distribution calculations for proton therapy are more accurate when based on DE-CT than on SE-CT. It is however unclear what the quantitative benefit of repeated DE-CT calculations is for lung cancer patients.
The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of cryosurgery plus NK immunotherapy to advanced NSCLC.
LUNG-EST is a retrospective study including 152 patients who benefit from lung surgery during the years 2012 to 2013 at Hospices civils de Lyon and with a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinomas. For all patients, clinical data and histopathological data are available. The objective of this study is to characterize these lung adenocarcinomas by the LungCarta Panel using the mass spectrometry array Sequenom. This panel could identify 214 DNA mutations and/or frameshift insert/deletion among 26 oncogenes. Once included in the study, the adenocarcinomas are also included in a Tissue MicroArray (TMA) in order to perform immunohistochemical analysis. Immunohistochemical staining with innovative antibodies are correlated with clinical, histopathological and molecular data. Our hypothesis is that this TMA could constitute a good tool to screen interesting protein's expression.
The primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy of osimertinib (AZD9291), in terms of the objective response rate in patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC with EGFR mutations and the EGFR T790M mutation at diagnosis as defined by RECIST 1.1 criteria. Safety and efficacy will also be measured.
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancer and the leading causes of cancer death in worldwide. Approximately 80% of NSCLC were inoperable. The prognosis of patients with LA-NSCLC remains disappointing. Investigators hypothesized that use of simultaneous integrated boost intensity modulated radiotherapy (SIB-IMRT) technology can safety increasing the radiation dose and benefit for inoperable NSCLC patients.
The objective of the proposed clinical trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of CV301 in combination with Anti-PD1-Therapy in subjects with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The clinical trial is designed to evaluate the possible enhanced antitumor activity of CV301 with Anti-PD1-Therapy. The rationale for combining CV301 with Anti-PD1-Therapy is based on the hypothesis that CV301 can induce specific immune response in the tumor, and that in combination, Anti-PD1-Therapy may augment the T cell-mediated immune response generated by CV301 by blocking the inhibitory signal of the PD-1. The trial will include a Phase 1 portion and a Phase 1b portion with 2 cohorts. The Phase 1 portion is a dose escalation part to assess the safety and tolerability of CV301 alone, prior to moving into the combination with Anti-PD1-Therapy (the Phase 1b component). The following Phase 1b portion of the trial aims to test the safety and tolerability of the combination treatment using a two cohort approach with cohort 1 receiving CV301 plus Nivolumab and cohort 2 receiving CV301 plus Pembrolizumab.
Objectives: To examine whether NK cell activity associates with two confirmed risk factors: (1) presence of indeterminate lung nodule(s) and (2) smoking exposure after controlling for potential confounders, including age, gender, body mass index (BMI), personal history of any cancer, and family history of cancer. This project is aimed at measuring NK cell activity, which may eventually help in reducing false positive rates of LDCT screening, improve early detection of lung cancer, and assist in risk assessment in patients with lung cancer. The investigators hypothesize that measurement of NK cell activity may be a useful tool for assessing changes in immunosurveillance in patients with conditions or diseases where NK cell activity has been shown to be reduced, such as lung cancer
The primary hypothesis is that disease-free survival is improved in patients undergoing resection for tumor thought to be stage I-III primary non-small cell lung cancer in patients with combined general-epidural anesthesia & analgesia as compared to patients receiving general anesthesia and postoperative patient-controlled opioid analgesia. Patients having surgery for resection of potentially curable lung cancer will be randomized to combined general and epidural anesthesia or general anesthesia with opioid analgesia. The primary outcome will be disease-free survival.
Background: Anetumab ravtansine is a new drug. It kills cancer cells that carry mesothelin. That is a protein on the surface of tumor cells in many types of tumors, including most lung cancers. Researchers want to find a safe dose for the study drug for lung cancer. They want to see if it can shrink tumors in mesothelin-positive lung cancer. Objectives: To test the safety and effectiveness of anetumab ravtansine for lung cancer. Eligibility: Adults 18 years and older who have lung cancer that has gotten worse on other therapy Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Tumor tissue sample. This can be from a previous procedure. Blood and urine tests Heart tests Scans. For one scan, a small amount of radioactive substance is injected into the blood. Eye exam The study will have 21-day cycles. On day 1 of each cycle, participants will get the study drug through a tube inserted in a vein. Participants will repeat a heart test in cycles 1 and 2. They will have blood tests weekly in cycle 1, twice in all other cycles. They will have scans every 6 weeks for the first 6 months, every 9 weeks until the end of year 2, then every 12 weeks. Participants will have samples of tumor tissue taken twice. About 30 days after stopping the study drug, participants will have a follow-up visit. This will include medical history, physical exam, blood and pregnancy tests, and heart and eye tests. Some will be called a few times a year to discuss their health and treatment.
