Filter by:Purpose: Selectins are vascular cell adhesion molecules involved in adhesive interactions of leukocytes and platelets and endothelium within the blood circulation. Plasma soluble P selectin (sP-selectin), is a one of member of selectin family, an adhesion molecule and component of the membrane of the platelet alpha granulate has been proposed as a one marker of platelet activation. In this study we evaluate of expression of P selectin on platelets of blood between serum samples from lung cancer and healthy individuals.
Several reports have examined Programmed Death 1 (PD-1) expression on tumor-infiltrating T-cells, and its correlation with prognosis has been discussed. However, Programmed Death 1 (PD1)/Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PDL1) expression on the peripheral blood T-cells of cancer patients, particularly in those with lung cancer, has not been sufficiently studied. The purpose of this study is evaluate the expression of PD1 and PDL1 in subpopulations of peripheral blood and tumor cells patients with lung cancer non-small cell (NSCLC), associating with clinicopathological features of the patients studied.
The advantages of thoracoscopic surgery include smaller wounds, fewer postoperative complications, and shortened hospital stay. However,complications such as pain, pulmonary function insufficiency, pneumonia,postoperative pneumothorax, persistent air leakage, subcutaneous emphysema, cough, and hemoptysis may occur in older patients after thoracoscopic surgery. Pulmonary rehabilitation has been demonstrated by evidence-base medicine could effectively reduce pulmonary complications and dyspnea as well as improve lung function, quality of life, exercise ability, and functional status of patients after traditional heart and thoracic surgery. Studies have suggested that pulmonary rehabilitation should be performed for at least 4 weeks to optimize the training effect .However, most patients who undergo thoracoscopic surgery were discharged within 3-5 days. Such a short hospital stay impeded the delivery of pulmonary rehabilitation. Home-based pulmonary rehabilitation appeared to be an option for these patients The purpose of this study is to determine whether Pulmonary rehabilitation are effective on patients who had thoracic surgeries.
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate, among 54 stage early stage lung cancer patients, whether a behavioral intervention versus an educational Control group results in improved function at 6-months.
uPAR PET/CT as a prognostic marker in non-small cell lung cancer.
The goal of this study is to determine specific perfusion patterns for radiation induced lung changes and residual/recurrent lung malignancies in patients treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy SBRT and thus improve to distinguish radiation changes from residual/recurrent lung cancers. Currently CT is often unable to make a clear differentiation between benign and malignant changes in the lung after SBRT treatment necessitating additional wait time to perform follow up CTs or biopsies. Optimal treatment may be delayed. The investigators want to apply a CT perfusion sequence in addition to the routine follow up CTs with the goal to obtain perfusion values of post treatment lung changes and lung tumours. The investigators' hypothesis is that CT perfusion values will help differentiate benign post radiation changes from residual/recurrent tumour in the lung with higher confidence and may help avoid unnecessary delays in cancer treatment.
To evaluate Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients clinical profile and the outcome after treatment with Gefitinib in Pulmonary Oncology Outpatient Clinic Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia.
This study is designed to establish biosimilarity of SB8, a proposed biosimilar product of bevacizumab, to EU-sourced bevacizumab, in patients with metastatic or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in Taiwan. Early diagnosis of lung cancer may improve cancer survival. Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) was thought to be the best screening tool for lung cancer. However, there is growing concerns about radiation exposure, high cost, and high rate of false-positive screening result. Epidemiologic studies from western countries showed that cigarette smoking is the major cause of lung cancer, and other risk factors may include age, environmental pollution, occupational exposures (included of radon exposure), gender, race, and pre-existing lung diseases. Adenocarcinoma is the major type of lung cancer in Taiwan and is less attributable to smoking. The investigators need a different risk prediction model adapted to the investigators country. National Taiwan University Hospital Chu-Tung Branch initiated the lung cancer screening by LDCT since June 2015. Many people can get the LDCT screening with affordable price with the subsidy from enterprise donation. The purpose of this study is observing those participants with 2-year follow-up. Furthermore, those data may connect with another study of "Low dose computed tomography screening study in nonsmoker with risk factors for lung cancer in Taiwan" （Non-smoker study）which is implemented in other hospitals in Taiwan.For reality limiting, After one year, the enrollment rate was a lot lower than expected. We extended the enrollment time but only observe those participants for one year not two year..
This research study is studying capmatinib as a treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with MET exon 14 skipping, where the participant has already received prior therapy with a MET inhibitor.
