Filter by:This phase II trial tests whether CD105/Yb-1/SOX2/CDH3/MDM2-polyepitope plasmid DNA vaccine (STEMVAC) works to shrink tumors in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. STEMVAC targets specific immunogenic proteins that help lung cancer cells to grow. STEMVAC is made up of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which is a natural substance in every living organism. DNA acts like a blueprint that tells all the cells in your body how to function. The DNA used in this study contains instructions for your body to produce parts of the 5 proteins the investigators identified (CDH3, CD105, YB-1, MDM2 and SOX2). STEMVAC is given with granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) which is being used as an adjuvant to help create a stronger immune response. Giving STEMVAC with GM-CSF to patients while on maintenance therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may help activate certain immune cells to recognize and kill lung cancer cells.
This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, phase 2 study aiming to assess the efficacy and safety of adjuvant use of Ensartinib in stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with positive ALK-fusion. Enrolled patients will take Ensatinib for 3 years or until recurrence of the disease or intolerable toxicity, following complete tumour resection with or without adjuvant standard chemotherapy.
MR-guided radiotherapy is an innovative technique which supports sophisticated approaches towards pulmonary adaptive radiotherapy (ART). Such individualized treatment approaches can lead to reduced toxicity and potentially better local tumor control for patients with LA-NSCLC in the future. PUMA is an early clinical trial, which aims to demonstrate the feasibility of MR-guided online ART to locally-advanced NSCLC. In a second step, the investigators aim to use the data from this feasibility trial to design and launch a further phase I/II clinical study that directly compares the benefits of MR-guided online ART of LA-NSCLC to CT-based (A)RT approaches.
Non-interventional study that will be collecting clinical and molecular health information from patients with NSCLC who will receive longitudinal blood collection in addition to their standard of care therapy and disease surveillance.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of PBF-1129 in combination with nivolumab in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has come back (recurrent) or spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as PBF-1129 and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
Lung carcinoma is the second most common cancer and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. In Egypt, lung carcinoma ranks the 5th among all cancer cases. Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive neoplasm that arises from mesothelial cells which form the lining of the pleural. There is a strong resemblance between epithelioid mesothelioma and lung adenocarcinoma, some of peripheral lung adenocarcinoma or SCC present with pleurotropic growth like mesothelioma. Glypican-1 (GPC1) is one the six glypican family members. It is one of cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans that acts as a growth factor signaling. The aim of this study is to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of Glypican-1 in pleural epitheloid mesothelioma, lung adenocarcinoma and lung SCC
This is a multi-centre, prospective cohort study, aiming to evaluate a blood test in early detection of the four common cancers, based on the investigation of the circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA). Primary objective: To evaluate the performance characteristics of the blood ctDNA test in early detecting cancers. Secondary objectives: - To evaluate the performance characteristics of the test in determining the origin of tumour, as compared to the findings of the imaging diagnostic tests. - To determine the risk of cancers development in the high-risk population, as compared to that in the moderate-risk group.
Previous studies have yielded inconsistent findings regarding the association between obstructive sleep apnea and the prevalence and mortality of lung cancer. Smoking history, a common risk factor for lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and obstructive sleep apnea, may act as a confounding variable, limiting interpretation of the results. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea in never smokers with lung cancer and to determine the effect of obstructive sleep apnea on the prognosis of lung cancer. Enrolled patients will undergo respiratory polygraphy before beginning treatment for lung cancer. This prospective cohort includes both cross sectional and longitudinal analyses.
Studies have shown that combining chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) prolongs survival compared with chemotherapy alone in extensive stage small-cell lung cancer (ES SCLC), but the survival benefit is modest. The main aim of this trial is to investigate whether there is a synergistic/additive effect of concurrent thoracic radiotherapy in ES SCLC patients receiving carboplatin/etoposide/durvalumab.
This is a prospective, multicenter, open label study to investigate the safety and efficacy of Gentuximab plus Almonertinib in metastatic NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation-positive.
