Filter by:The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety of adding MDPL3280A to standard chemotherapy (a combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel) and radiation in patients with lung cancer. You are being asked to take part in this study because you have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is unresectable (cannot be removed by surgery) and has not spread. This is an investigational study. MPDL3280A is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes only. Paclitaxel, carboplatin, and the radiation therapy are all FDA approved for the treatment of lung cancer. The use of these drugs in combination is considered investigational. Up to 40 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of albumin-bound paclitaxel plus gemcitabine in patients with advanced squamous cell lung cancers. The investigators would like to determine the percentage of patients with squamous cell lung cancers who experience shrinkage of their tumors following treatment with this regimen. This combination of drugs is not a standard therapy for patients with squamous cell lung cancers. However, each of these drugs, when given alone or with other chemotherapies, is FDA-approved for the treatment of this disease.
The purpose of the study is to define the safety and tolerability of this drug combination. The study will also define the response rate of patients with advanced and unresectable NSCLC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HepaSphere interventional therapy using digital subtraction angiography（DSA）for lung cancer.
This study part will be conducted in an open-label, non-randomized, Phase I conventional 3+3 dose-escalating design to define the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and MTD of BAY 1000394 (Roniciclib) given in a 3 days on / 4 days off schedule in combination with docetaxel in subjects with second- or third-line NSCLC.
This research study is evaluating two drugs, alectinib and bevacizumab, as possible treatments for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Screening with the use of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) reduces mortality from lung cancer. Relatives with family history of lung cancer are at increased risk of lung cancer compared to those without a family history in pooled analysis. A prospective trial using LDCT of lung to screen the relatives with family history of lung cancer is needed.
This randomized phase III trial is studying gefitinib and synchronous pemetrexed/cisplatin chenmotherapy to see how well it works compared to pemetrexed/cisplatin chenmotherapy alone in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stage II-IIIA(N1-N2) lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR activating mutation in Asian population.
Non-small cell lung cancer is characterized by aggressive growth and treatment resistance. New approaches include immunotherapeutic strategies but spontaneous immune responses against tumor antigens remain unclear. The aim of this study is to characterize localization and frequencies of spontaneously induced memory T cells specific for a panel of tumor-associated antigens in peripheral blood and bone marrow of non-small cell lung cancer patients.
The development of anti-angiogenesis drugs has led to renewed enthusiasm in lung cancer treatments. Apatinib, also known as YN968D1, is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor which selectively inhibits the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) and also represents mild inhibition to PDGFR, c-Kit and c-src tyrosine kinases. It is an orally bioavailable, small molecule agent which is thought to inhibit VEGF-mediated endothelial cell migration and proliferation thus blocking blood vessel formation in tumor tissues. Previous studies have identified that apatinib was well tolerated at doses below 750mg daily. In phase I/II study, investigators reported an objective response rate of 68%. In a phase III trial conducted in advanced pretreated gastric cancer, the median overall survival was significantly prolonged in the apatinib group compared with placebo group. Thus, in this trial, the investigators aim to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in previously treated advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
