Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test whether the combination of bevacizumab and erlotinib can prolong progression free survival as compared with erlotinib alone as first-line treatment in patients with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with activating mutation of EGFR.
The primary objective of this study is to establish circulating tumor cell (CTC) derived xenografts and assess the activity of novel DNA repair inhibitors as a function of DNA repair mutations detected in CTC samples (personalize DNA repair therapy).
This clinical research study is being carried out in two parts, Phase 1 and Phase 2. The primary purpose of the Phase 1 portion of the study is to observe the safety of the combination of rociletinib and MPDL3280A in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients. The primary purpose of the Phase 2 portion of the study is to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor effects of the combination of rociletinib and MPDL3280A, at the best doses for the combination determined in Phase 1, in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
Treatment efficacy of afatinib will be assessed in patients with lung cancer harboring EGFR mutations which were detected from circulating tumor DNA.
The investigators prospectively evaluated in this study the efficacy and safety profiles of afatinib as 3rd or 4th line treatment after prior failure to systemic chemotherapy and first-generation EGFR-TKI under a Boehringer Ingelheim sponsored Compassionate Use Program (CUP), with comparison of our historical cohort who received erlotinib after previous failure to systemic chemotherapy and first-generation EGFR-TKI.
This study will compare two clinically accepted protocols for surveillance imaging in individuals who are found to have a small pulmonary nodule on chest computed tomography (CT) scans.
The study aims to explore the prevalence of EGFR mutations assessed with ctDNA samples in advanced NSCLC, who had received ≤ 1 prior systemic chemotherapy regimens.
Bone metastases are common in patients with advanced lung cancer and can have devastating consequences. Preventing or delaying bone metastases may improve outcomes. Bisphosphonates are inhibitors of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. The current indications for bisphosphonates include the treatment of metabolic disorders of bone metabolism (e.g., osteoporosis and Paget's disease), the treatment of hypercalcaemia of malignancy (HCM), and the prevention of skeletal-related events(SREs)from malignant bone disease. Clinical trials also confirm that bisphosphonates, and zoledronic acid(ZOL) in particular, can prevent bone loss from cancer treatment.There is also emerging evidence that the benefits of bisphosphonate therapy in the oncology setting are more extensive. This study will evaluate whether the addition of ZOL 4 mg every 3 months for up to 1 years in patients with stage IIIB/IV lung cancer could reduce the rate of bone metastases ,improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival(OS), and delay time to bone metastases .
Open, non-interventional, prospective, multi-center clinical research platform with the main objective to assess molecular biomarker testing, treatment and outcome of patients with NSCLC or SCLC in Germany
This phase I trial studies the side effects, best dose, and best way to give pembrolizumab when given together with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab together with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
