Filter by:The purpose of this study is to perform prospective data analysis on tumor response in terms of local tumor control after 2 years, potential acute and late toxicity and survival in patients with non-metastatic, non-small-cell lung cancer treated by radiotherapy that are medically inoperable due to coexisting comorbidities or that refuse surgery. SBRT regimens used will be 4 fractions of 12 Gy or 3 fractions of 17 Gy depending on tumor location in a risk-adapted approach.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate S1 capsule plus Cisplatin as adjuvant treatment in stageⅡ and Ⅲa non-small cell lung cancer. It is the first study in the world to investigate the safety and efficacy of S1 capsule using in stageⅡ and Ⅲa non-small cell lung cancer patients after the complete resection.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, randomized, 2-stage crossover study consisting of 2 phases: Stage I - Pharmacokinetics (Bioequivalence), with an Extension Stage II - Pharmacokinetics (Food Effect) with an Extension This study will enroll approximately 60 subjects in stage I and 60 subjects in stage II with hematologic or solid tumor malignancies, excluding gastrointestinal tumors and tumors that have originated or metastasized to the liver for which no standard treatment exists or have progressed or recurred following prior therapy. Subjects must not be eligible for therapy of higher curative potential where an alternative treatment has been shown to prolong survival in an analogous population. Approximately 23 sites in the US and 2 in Canada will participate in this study.
In case of PET or CT based cN1 (suspected) NSCLC, ESTS guidelines propose mediastinal staging by echo-endoscopy OR mediastinoscopy. Recent data show a sensitivity of less than 50% for echo-endoscopy to detect N2 disease in cN1 NSCLC patients, while prevalence of mediastinal nodal disease was 24% (unpublished data Aster II).2 The investigators plan to perform a prospective multicentric observational study to measure the sensitivity of mediastinal staging by video-assisted mediastinoscopy (VAM) in cN1 operable and resectable (suspected) NSCLC patients.
The purpose of this study is to investigate how effective and how safe the combination of radiation therapy and an investigational medication targeting the immune system known as Ipilimumab in the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The investigators would like to see if this combination of radiation and Ipilimumab can stimulate the body's immune system to stop the growth of tumors that are outside the field of radiation. The investigators would like see if using this combination of radiation therapy with Ipilimumab could help the body reject the patient's own tumor or at least help their immune system to maintain the disease stable and/or slow its growth. Radiation therapy (RT) is currently a standard procedure for treatment of NSCLC. Ipilimumab is considered an investigational medication because it is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of NSCLC. Ipilimumab has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of metastatic melanoma.
In this study, participants with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will be randomized to receive single agent pembrolizumab for up to 35 treatments or standard of care (SOC) platinum-based chemotherapy (carboplatin + paclitaxel or carboplatin + pemetrexed for 4 to 6 21-day cycles). Participants in the platinum-based chemotherapy arms with non-squamous tumor histologies may receive pemetrexed maintenance therapy after the 4 to 6 cycles of chemotherapy. The primary study hypothesis is that pembrolizumab prolongs overall survival (OS) compared to SOC chemotherapy.
All patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) resection of lung cancer will receive standard therapy including lobectomy or sub-lobar resection and mediastinal lymph node dissection. After completion of the standard of care, intraoperative ultrasound will be used to evaluate lymph node stations for the presence of any missed lymph nodes with particular focus on lymph nodes which may appear pathologic on ultrasound evaluation. Data will be reviewed for rates of pathologic upstaging, and sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound as an additional diagnostic tool in the operating room will be evaluated. It is hypothesized that Intra-operative thoracoscopic ultrasound following standard video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) dissection will increase the rate of pathologically staged in N2 nodes in non-small cell lung cancer patients undergoing definitive surgical resection.
This randomised, multi-center, controlled trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of icotinib with concurrent radiotherapy versus chemotherapy with concurrent radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy in treating patients with breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Stereotactic body radiation therapy delivers fewer, tightly-focused, high doses of radiation therapy to all known sites of cancer in the body while minimizing radiation exposure of surrounding normal tissue.
This pilot clinical trial studies proton beam radiation therapy in treating patients with thoracic cancer that has come back and have received prior radiation therapy. Proton beam radiation therapy uses high energy protons to kill tumor cells and may cause less damage to normal tissue.
