Filter by:The Phase 2 portion of this study evaluates the efficacy and safety of MRTX849 monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in cohorts of patients with advanced NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation and any PD-L1 TPS and who are candidates for first-line treatment. The Phase 3 portion of the study compares the efficacy of adagrasib in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab in patients with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic nonsquamous NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation and PD-L1 TPS >=50% and who are candidates for first line treatment.
Combination of concomitant Radio-Chemotherapy showed a significant improvement (Takada) of OS and PFS in limited disease SCLC patients. This clinical trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel group phase II investigator initiated trial (ITT) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Durvalumab in combination with Cisplatin/Etoposide/Radiotherapy in patients with limited disease small-cell lung cancer (SCLC).
Immune-checkpoint inhibitors have recently become available as a new therapy for a variety of cancers. This drugs function by boosting the anti-cancer immune response, but unfortunately, may cause off-target, non-specific immune activation, resulting in liver and gut toxicity. In order to understand the development of liver immune-related adverse events we aim to collect full clinicopathological data from patients with advanced lung cancer treated with immune-checkpoint inhibitors at Blacktown, Westmead and Nepean Hospitals. Patients treated with standard chemotherapy will be used as a control group. This study aims to establish clinical risk factors that can predict the occurrence of liver immune-related adverse events in patients with advanced lung cancer treated with immune-checkpoint inhibitors. Such predictors may assist in the stratification of patients based on their risk for development liver toxicity as a result of immunotherapy, allowing early cessation/modification of treatment prior to the development of severe adverse reactions. In addition, this retrospective study will aim to determine the significance of pre-existing liver damage on the development of liver adverse events as well as establish a timeline defining the development of adverse events in the liver.
This implementation study will examine the best ways to refer heavy smokers to information about lung cancer screening.
This study seeks to evaluate a multiparametric test including 6 immunohistochemical markers (PD-L1, CD8, FoxP3, PD1, CD163, CD15) to predict the cumulative incidence of death or progression on treatment with pembrolizumab+first line chemotherapy in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, regardless of the PD-L1 status and in the absence of ALK, ROS1 or EGFR alteration.
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding whole brain radiotherapy with hippocampal avoidance and memantine to stereotactic radiosurgery versus stereotactic radiosurgery alone in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain and come back in other areas of the brain after earlier stereotactic radiosurgery. Hippocampus avoidance during whole-brain radiation therapy decreases the amount of radiation that is delivered to the hippocampus, which is a brain structure that is important for memory. The medicine memantine is also often given with whole brain radiation therapy because it may decrease the risk of side effects of radiation on thinking and memory. Stereotactic radiosurgery delivers a high dose of radiation only to the small areas of cancer in the brain and avoids the surrounding normal brain tissue. Adding whole brain radiotherapy with hippocampal avoidance and memantine to stereotactic radiosurgery may be effective in shrinking or stabilizing cancer that has spread to the brain and returned in other areas of the brain after receiving stereotactic radiosurgery.
The neoadjuvant Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) or ICI combination with chemotherapy for Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) had induced higher major pathologic response (MPR) and complete pathological response (PCR). However, the RECIST underestimated the therapeutic response of neoadjuvant ICI therapy. In this study, dynamic PET/CT compared with RECEST 1.1 for the prediction of therapeutic response of NSCLC treated with neoadjuvant ICI combination with chemotherapy.
In this study circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) blood testing is used to detect the residual blood cancer. If residual cancer using this blood test is detected there may be at higher risk of having the cancer return. The study is going to test whether or not the number of circulating cancer cells detected in the blood can be reduced by administration durvalumab after the standard treatment if you are tested positive for the residual cancer.
Low-dose CT Screening has been shown in two large trials in the United States (NLST) and Europe (NELSON) to increase overall survival in subjects 55 years of age and older with a strong smoking history. Unfortunately, in both North Carolina (NC) and South Carolina (SC), subjects are found to have the above referenced smoking history prior to reaching the minimum age in these studies. This study is aimed at decreasing the minimum age of screening in a high-risk population.
In this study, providing access to physiotherapy applications by telerehabilitation method and the effectiveness of this application will be examined for patients who have undergone lung surgery in the early postoperative period during the pandemic process in which social isolation continues.
