Filter by:The Belinostat-Erlotinib trial is designed as an open, non randomized phase I / II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of Belinostat in combination with Erlotinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer who are eligible for treatment with erlotinib.
The stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) procedure is an emerging alternative to the standard treatment for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), typically lobectomy with lymphadenectomy. This procedure (lobectomy) does not fulfill the medical need as many patients are poor operative candidates or decline surgery. This study assesses the feasibility of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) as a tool to produce therapeutically useful computed tomography (CT) scans, using standard water-soluble iodinated compounds as the contrast agents.
This is a multi-center, open-label, non-randomized Phase I study to define the safety profile, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and potential pharmacokinetic interaction of regorafenib in combination with pemetrexed and cisplatin in patients with Stage IIIB or Stage IV nonsquamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and to determine the impact of the combined administration on the pharmacokinetics of regorafenib, pemetrexed, and cisplatin. In Part A of this trial, regorafenib will be administered in a sequential dosing with a seven day wash out period before the next infusion of pemetrexed and cisplatin. Regorafenib will be administered at a dose of 160 mg qd from Day 2 to Day 14 followed by a 7 days break. In Part B of this trial, regorafenib will be administered continuously from Day 1 to Day 21. Only in Cycle 1, regorafenib dosing will start on Day 2 in order to assess the pharmacokinetics of pemetrexed and cisplatin without concomitant regorafenib dosing.
Test the effect of combined regiona/general anesthesia on lung cancer recurrence compared to general anesthesia alone.
The goal of this clinical research study is to study the safety of giving larger daily doses of proton radiation therapy than the standard dose levels given to treat lung cancer. Researchers want to find the highest daily dose of proton radiation that can be given without having to stop therapy due to side effects.
The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of the immunotherapeutic product GSK 2302032A when given to Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients, after tumor removal by surgery.
A Phase I trial of weekly topotecan in combination with sorafenib in treatment of relapsed Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) has been commenced. In the present randomized phase 2 study, the investigators will research whether Sorafenib maintenance prolongs progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with ED-SCLC who achieved CR or PR after platinum-based induction chemotherapy.
RATIONALE: Gathering health information about patients with non-small cell lung cancer who never smoked cigarettes may help doctors learn more about the disease. Collecting and storing samples of blood from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about cancer and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is studying internet-based clinical information and blood sample collection from patients with non-small cell lung cancer who never smoked cigarettes.
Surgical resection with mediastinal lymph node sampling is currently the therapy of choice for early stage (I-II) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Selected patients unwilling or unable to tolerate surgery are referred for so-called 'curative' high dose radiotherapy. This has shown to result in a long term local disease control rate and a high cancer specific survival. The current trial addresses the issue if progression free survival (PFS) in patients treated with radiotherapy can be predicted by a multi-variate model derived from a composite of bio-imaging and biomarkers
Surgical resection with mediastinal lymph node sampling is currently the therapy of choice for early stage (I-II) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Selected patients unwilling or unable to tolerate surgery are referred for so-called 'curative' high dose radiotherapy. This has shown to result in a long term local disease control rate and a high cancer specific survival. The current trial addresses the relationship between blood and tissue biomarkers, bio-imaging and pathology in patients with early stage NSCLC treated with hypofractionated radiation therapy and surgery.
