Filter by:This study will evaluate a new imaging technology, termed optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) for detecting and diagnosing pulmonary malignancy in the central airways.
Clinical study investigating the feasibility and safety of using an anchored Calypso transponder in the airways of the lung for real-time monitoring of tumor location during radiotherapy
The administration of Anamorelin HCl in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer-Cachexia (NSCLC-C) is expected to increase appetite, lean body mass, weight gain, and muscle strength.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate progression-free survival among subjects with KRAS mutation positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) treated with erlotinib plus tivantinib (ARQ 197) compared to single agent chemotherapy.
The purpose of this post approval study is to further characterize the safety profile of the ProGEL™ Pleural Air Leak Sealant in commercial use, with specific reference to long-term safety over 90 days of follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the images of the primary lesions of lung cancer and any metastatic lesions seen from the investigational SPECT/CT 99mTC-EC-DG scans are the same as the PET/CT 18F-FDG scans.
Nimotuzumab (hR3) is an IgG1 humanized monoclonal antibody that recognized an epitope located in the extra cellular domain of the human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Clinical efficacy has been shown in adults with head and neck cancer. This study assesses the efficacy and safety of the combination of Nimotuzumab administered concomitantly with chemotherapy in patients with NSCLC. This is a randomized, muti-center sites trial of this treatment.
Pazopanib is a new cancer drug that works by limiting the growth of new blood vessels in tumours. About half of patients who take pazopanib develop high blood pressure (hypertension). This side effect can make patients have to reduce or stop their cancer treatment, and can cause other health problems. The aim of this study is to find out exactly how the drug causes high blood pressure.
The purpose of this study is to access the effect and safety of radiotherapy combined whth Iressa for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer with harboring active EGFR mutations.
Many authors have recognized the need to overcome the different barriers to continuity of cancer care, such as inadequate communication between specialists and family physicians (FP), insufficient information provided for the long-term follow-up care and difficulties to transfer back to FP the responsibility for cancer care at the end of treatments. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of a multi-faceted intervention to improve continuity of care for patients with lung cancer. Newly diagnosed lung cancer patients who have a FP will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or to usual care and they will be followed at baseline, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 months ( or until death for those with a survival of less than 18 months). The intervention comprises 4 components: 1) systematic appointments with FP at 3-month interval ; 2) transmission to FP of a standardized comprehensive summary before each appointment; 3) systematic transmission to the oncology team of patients' information resulting from FP visits; 4) development of a priority access to FP for cancer patients. In both groups, outcomes related to patients and to care processes will be measured at baseline and then after 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 months (or until death for those with a survival of less than 18months). Patients' principal family caregiver will be invited to participate to the study and they will complete questionnaires at baseline, at 6 months and at the end of the study. In addition, patients' FP will also be invited to complete a questionnaire at baseline and at the end of the study.
