Filter by:The purpose of this study is to collect samples to evaluate the ProGRP and NSE assays independently as aids for monitoring the course of disease and therapy in subjects diagnosed with SCLC.
To determine the 1 year progression-free survival (PFS) of the combination of metformin and standard chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated advanced or metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
The aim of this present study is to test the feasibility and toxicity of individualized hypofractionated radiotherapy, and to report outcome data. In case this phase II trial has favorable results, a phase II/III trial on maximally tolerable, individualized, hypofractionated radiotherapy within a shorter overall-treatment time is aimed for.
Chloroquine can make tumor cells less resistant to chemo/radiotherapy. In this trial chloroquine is given during radiotherapy. The dose is increased in cohorts of at least 3 patients.
The purpose of this study is to facilitate application of the known biomarkers to patients presenting today, and to establish a collection of biospecimens that will be useful for discovering and validating new biomarkers for future use.
The purpose of this study is to determine the dose that the vaccine can be given safely to patients when injected directly into the lung tumor, without any serious side effects.
This is the first study where BAY1000394 is given in combination with chemotherapy: cisplatin / etoposide or carboplatin / etoposide. Patients with small cell lung cancer will be treated. Every patient will receive drug treatment, there is no placebo group. Different groups of patients will receive different dosages of BAY1000394 to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BAY1000394 in combination with chemotherapy. The dose of chemotherapy is the standard dose usually administered and will not change. The study will also assess how the drug is metabolized by the body and changes in tumor size. BAY1000394 will be given per mouth, twice a day for three days every week. Treatment will stop if the tumor continues to grow, if side effects occur which the patient can not tolerate or if the patients decides to exit treatment.
This research study is looking at an alternative way of delivering radiation therapy with protons. Protons are tiny particles with a positive charge that can be controlled to travel a certain distance and stop inside the body. In theory, this allows better control of where the radiation dose is delivered as compared to photons. Information from other research studies suggests that proton radiation may help to reduce unwanted side effects from radiation and allow an increase in radiation dose that increase the odds of tumor killing. The purpose of this study is to determine the safest dose of proton radiation therapy to give in combination with standard chemotherapy in participants with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
The primary objective for this trial is to determine the biological ability of apricoxib to decrease T reg cells in the peripheral blood and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in subjects compared to those who have not in subjects with early stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). The secondary objectives are to determine the efficacy of apricoxib to inhibit CD4+CD25+ T reg and FOXP3 function and exploration of COX-2 dependent biomarkers of apoptosis resistance, angiogenesis, invasion, and immunity.
This phase I trial studies how well talactoferrin works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or squamous cell head and neck cancer. Biological therapies, such as talactoferrin, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing
