Filter by:The goal of this clinical research study is to compare armodafinil, bupropion, curcumin, and minocycline when given alone or in combination to learn which is better for controlling symptoms, such as the side effects of chemoradiation, when given to treat lung cancer.
The primary purpose of this study is to explore the safety and tolerability of AZD0530 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in Japanese patients with non small cell lung cancer and epithelial ovarian cancer.
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 adult with head and neck cancer. The study assessed the safety, and efficacy of the combination of Nimotuzumab administered concomitantly with chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The aim of this study is to determine the diagnostic values of EBUS-TBNA in the mediastinal re-staging after induction treatment in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Primary objective: 1. To determine the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and the accuracy of EBUS-TBNA in the detection of mediastinal metastasis in mediastinal re-staging after induction treatment. Secondary objectives: 1. To compare the diagnostic values of EBUS-TBNA and integrated PET/CT in mediastinal re-staging 2. To evaluate the changes of ultrasonographic features of mediastinal lymph nodes after induction therapy 3. To determine procedure related complications
A side effect occurring in a majority of patients taking erlotinib (Tarceva®) consists of a skin rash. Sometimes, symptoms associated with the rash necessitate erlotinib dose reduction or discontinuation. Some physicians have successfully treated the erlotinib-induced rash with doxycycline. At the same time, it has been observed that in patients who develop the erlotinib rash, the cancers respond better to erlotinib treatment. This research study is designed to determine how well doxycycline treats the erlotinib rash and whether doxycycline affects the blood levels of erlotinib.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and highest safe doses of XL647 in combination with XL147 in adults with solid tumors. XL647 is a small molecule that potently inhibits multiple receptor kinases, including EGFR, VEGFR2 (KDR), and ErbB2. XL147 is a new chemical entity that inhibits PI3 Kinase. Inactivation of PI3K has been shown to inhibit growth and induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in tumor cells.
The trial evaluates the utility of 18FDG-PET/CT scan in the target definition process when SBRT is planned for stage I NSCLC.
To determine the dose and schedule of sirolimus when given in combination with panitumumab in adult subjects with Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC
RATIONALE: Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Gefitinib may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving gefitinib together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of radiation therapy when given together with gefitinib and to see how well they work in treating patients with inoperable stage I or stage II non-small cell lung cancer.
Patients will receive 250 mg Iressa by mouth daily each day while on this study. Patients will also receive docetaxel 30 mg/m2 by by vein (IV) on day 1 weekly for the first 3 weeks of each course of therapy. A course of therapy is 4 weeks. Patients will not receive docetaxel during week 4. A maximum of 8 full cycles of docetaxel plus Iressa are planned. Patients may continue on daily Iressa until progressive disease and/or unacceptable toxicity.
