Filter by:This clinical trial investigates the acceptability of electronic cigarettes (JUUL) for smoking cessation (quitting smoking) and the reduction of surgery-related complications in patients with newly diagnosed head, neck, or lung cancer. Smoking before surgery is associated with increased risk of complications during and after surgery. Electronic cigarettes are a type of special product that gives small, steady doses of nicotine to help stop cravings and relieve symptoms that occur when a person is trying to quit smoking. Stopping cigarette smoking before surgery may reduce the risk of complications during and after surgery in patients with head, neck, or lung cancer.
The aim of EP0057 - 202 is to assess the safety and efficacy of EP0057 in combination with Olaparib (a PARP inhibitor) in two cancers where there is a high unmet need: extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and ATM-negative gastric cancer (GC). EP0057-202 is a non-comparative, multi-arm, multi-centre, open label, Phase 2 study to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of EP0057 in combination with olaparib (an approved PARP inhibitor) in defined patient populations with relapsed* GC and SCLC. *(see Eligibility Criteria for definition of "relapse" for each tumour type/population) The treatment cohorts will open sequentially at the Sponsor's discretion and patients may be enrolled into each cohort concurrently. EP0057 is an investigational nanoparticle-drug conjugate administered intravenously. The rationale for developing EP0057 is to enable selective entry of EP0057 into tumour tissue and as a result create preferential accumulation of EP0057, and therefore of the payload Camptothecin, to translate into maximum tumour cell killing.
At present, the main characteristics of the enrolled population in the clinical study of HER2-mutated non-small cell lung cancer are the YVMA mutation type. There are no relevant clinical trials specifically targeting rare mutation types. Pyrotinib has been approved for the treatment of HER2-positive advanced breast cancer in China, and pyrotinib has shown good development prospects in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The purpose of this study is to observe the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib maleate in patients with HER2 rare mutation in advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
This phase II trial tests whether oral iloprost works in preventing lung cancer (chemoprevention) in former smokers. Oral iloprost has previously been shown to reduce abnormal lung cells in former smokers, suggesting a clinically significant impact on lung cancer risk. The use of oral iloprost may help keep cancer from forming and reduce abnormal cells in the lung in order to lower the risk of developing lung cancer in former smokers.
This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of a conversation tool on patient-centered health and decision-making outcomes in patients with lung cancer making treatment decisions. This research is being conducted to help doctors understand the information patients need to participate in shared decision-making about their lung cancer treatment options. The focus of this research is to study how patients choose lung cancer treatment options and the information needed to make that choice, with a focus on patients with lower health literacy.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based regimen has been widely used in first-line treatment of driver-gene-negative non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. This study investigate the efficacy and safety of the combination of bevacizumab plus nab-paclitaxel and platinum as second-line treatment for driver-gene-negative non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients progressed after ICI-based treatments.
This clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of a remote monitoring program for lifestyle changes in patients with lung cancer related fatigue (CRF). Fatigue is a common symptom of lung cancer and a side-effect of cancer treatments. CRF has a negative impact on patients' quality of life, daily activities, employment, social relationships and mood. Health coaches enable patients to develop and achieve self-determined wellness goals and assist patients to use their insight, personal strengths, goal setting, action steps, and accountability toward achieving healthy lifestyle changes. Remote monitoring with health-coaching may help relieve lung cancer related fatigue and increase the quality of life in cancer patients.
People with cancer affecting the lungs tend to be older and frailer compared to people with other cancers. As a result, they may have poorer quality of life and are less able to tolerate treatments for their cancer, such as chemotherapy. Research to date show that nutrition and physical activity support helps people with cancer, but not many older people are included in these studies. The investigators want to develop and test a nutrition and activity programme for older people with lung cancer that can be tailored to each patient to help them have the best possible quality of life from the moment they start a new line of cancer treatment. The research team has conducted the development work to find which nutrition and activity programmes are best for this patient group and how best to deliver the programme by looking at prior studies and talking to patients and carers as well as health care providers. The next step is to test the developed programme in a small pilot study, to i) see if it is possible and acceptable (to patients, families, and staff) to deliver and ii) see if it helps patients have and cope with anti-cancer treatments and improve patient quality of life.
This is trial studying the safety of adaptive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with durvalumab immunotherapy, platinum chemotherapy, and etoposide chemotherapy in platinum refractory extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
The purpose of this study is to examine the combination of osimertinib and carotuximab to assess the safety and find the recommended dose for treatment of advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Safety and tolerability will be measured by the number of dose-limiting toxicities, according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5, to find the maximum tolerated dose. The secondary objectives include evaluating the rate of objective response rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, and disease control rate, along with assessing biomarkers through tumor tissue and circulating tumor DNA.
