Filter by:Based on promising data from our laboratory demonstrating synergy between ablative local radiotherapy and FLT3 ligand immunotherapy in murine NSCLC models, investigators are performing a phase II study combining FLT3L immunotherapy and SBRT for patients with advanced NSCLC that has progressed following standard systemic therapy. All patients will receive daily subcutaneous injections of CDX-301 (75 µg/kg) for 5 days, beginning on the first day of SBRT. SBRT will be delivered to a single pulmonary or extrapulmonary lesion. The SBRT regimen will depend on the size and location of the target lesion. The primary endpoint will be progression-free survival at 4 months, defined using immune-related response criteria (irRC).
This randomized, multicenter, Phase III, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of alectinib versus crizotinib and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of alectinib in asian participants with treatment-naive ALK-positive advanced NSCLC. Participants will be randomized 2:1 into one of the two treatment groups to receive either alectinib (600 milligrams [mg] twice daily [BID]) or crizotinib (250 mg BID) orally, respectively.
The study is a randomized study of patients living in four municipalities in Eastern Jutland. After geriatric assessment half of the patients will be offered a tailor-made intervention in their homes. The follow-up will last for at least 90 days and include treatment of the patients' multimorbidity, e.g. of dehydration, anaemia, infections, and malnutrition. The other half of the patients, the results of the assessment and recommendations will be given to the patients and their general practitioner. The primary efficacy variables are accomplishment of planned cancer treatment, reduction of complications and admissions to hospital and increased quality of life,. If geriatric assessment and a tailor-made follow-up result in a better quality of life with less complications and admissions the offer may be extended to a longer period, younger age groups and other cancer diagnoses.
Targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) provides a promising method for diagnostic purposes by enabling the simultaneous detection of multiple gene mutations. This study is to evaluate the feasibility and application value by using NGS into identifying genomic mutations in multiple or multifocal primary lung cancers in cell-tumor DNA (ctDNA) from surgical patients
The study is a prospective, randomized controlled phase III trial, to test the efficacy, safety and neurocognitive outcomes of advanced NSCLC patients, following stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for 1 inoperable brain metastasis or 2-10 brain metastases, treated with NovoTTF-200M and supportive treatment compared to supportive treatment alone. The device is an experimental, portable, battery operated device for chronic administration of alternating electric fields (termed TTFields or TTF) to the region of the malignant tumor, by means of surface, insulated electrode arrays.
This pilot research trial studies the effects of dexamethasone in patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has not responded after previous treatment. Drugs such as dexamethasone can affect how tumors grow and respond to treatments. Imaging tests, such as fluoro-L-thymidine (FLT) positron emission tomography , use a small amount of radioactive substance to show changes in tumor cells. Studying the effects of dexamethasone on lung tumors using FLT positron emission tomography may help doctors plan better treatments.
UCPVAx is a therapeutic vaccine based on the telomerase-derived UCP designed to induce strong TH1 CD4 T cell responses in cancer patients. Three doses of UCPVax (0,25 mg, 0,5 mg and 1 mg) will be tested in this phase I/II study by using Continuous Reassessment Method (CRML) dose escalation design model. The phase I is a dose escalation study designed to evaluate safety of use of UCPVax and to estimate its Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). The phase II is a dose deescalation designed to evaluate the immunogenicity of UCPVax according to the dose level.
The purpose of this this study is to administer BMS-986012 in Combination with Platinum and Etoposide as First-line Therapy in Extensive Small Cell Lung Cancer.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether plinabulin (also known as BPI-2358) has an effect on cancer and body in combination with nivolumab, a standard treatment for metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer with progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy. Plinabulin inhibits tumor growth by targeting both new and existing blood vessels going to the tumor as well as killing tumor cells. Plinabulin is an investigational drug, a drug that is not approved for use outside of research studies by regulatory agencies. Up to 38 patients will be enrolled.
A randomized phase II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of selective metabolically adaptive radiation dose escalation in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer receiving definitive chemoradiotherapy. Eligible and consenting patients will be randomized to receive conventional chemoradiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy with a radiation (RT) integrated boost. All patients will receive a fludeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scan within two weeks prior to starting treatment. The primary outcome is to determine if dose escalation to metabolically active tumor subvolumes will reduce local-regional failure rate at 2 years.
