Filter by:REVOLUTION will be a US multicenter observational registry in scope and governed by a steering committee of approximately 8 experts in NSCLC and outcomes research. The primary goal of the registry is characterizing patterns of use for NSCLC therapy. REVOLUTION will be a multicenter registry enrolling approximately 2,500 patients. Additional patients limited to those with EGFR mutations may be enrolled following the initial study period as needed to ensure adequate sample sizes needed to examine primary questions of interest in the EGFR mutant population. Patients will be enrolled over a three year period across approximately 25 geographically diverse academic as well as community based sites within the US. The five year follow-up period will ensure robust survival data for correlations with clinical, tumor, and treatment variables. The target of 2,500 patients is meant to ensure adequate numbers of NSCLC patients with particular characteristics of interest including patients with adenocarcinoma, and EGFR mutations and effectively evaluate these patients with respect to key outcomes of interest including overall survival, time to progression, stage at progression, secondary metastases including brain metastases (at diagnosis and progression), comorbidity burden, and performance status at index date. The study design allows a cross-sectional perspective with collection of detailed patient and clinical characteristics at enrollment followed by longitudinal assessment of clinician and patient-reported endpoints every three months. Centralized follow-up will be conducted by having sites upload patient data following each visit via the web-based data system, with patients who do not show up for site visits being contacted via telephone by the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI) call center. Site recruitment and patient enrollment will be weighted based upon provider specialty and ability to enroll patients with NSCLC with the specified inclusion criteria.
Targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) provides a promising method for diagnostic purposes by enabling the simultaneous detection of multiple gene mutations. This study is to evaluate the feasibility and application value by using NGS into identifying genomic mutations in multiple or multifocal primary lung cancers in cell-tumor DNA (ctDNA) from surgical patients
This will be a Phase Ib open-label trial of CAVATAK™ (CVA21) in combination with Pembrolizumab for the treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC. The dose of Pembrolizumab will be fixed at 200mg. Three cohorts (dose levels) of intravenously-delivered CVA21 will be explored, using a standard 3+3 patient dose escalation design. The starting dose of CVA21 will be one log below the 1 x 10^9 TCID50 dose found to be safe when CVA21 was given alone in an ongoing Phase I study (NCT02043665).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the concordance between Positron E mission tomography parametric imaging versus standard PET for the 1 year prognosis of patients with NSCLC treated by radiochemotherapy. The ancillary study will evaluate the interest of parametric PET imaging during the treatment (around 42 Gray) to detect the local relapse of the lesion in order to propose a treatment re-planification or intensification (not realized on the present study).
This is a pharmacodynamic study to evaluate the effect of gefitinib as induction therapy for patients who have resectable, Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) sensitizing mutation lung cancer.
Patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring sensitive epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations invariably develop acquired resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Identification of actionable genetic mutations can be helpful for guiding the subsequent treatment. This study aimed to analyze the genetic profile of NSCLC harboring acquired resistance to the first-generation EGFR TKIs using next generation sequencing (NGS).
Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is one of the disastrous events when managing advanced Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) due to a grave prognosis. Although intrathecal (IT) chemotherapy and brain and/or spinal axis irradiation show some effects for LM in advanced NSCLC, the prognosis is still poor with median survival less than 12-14 weeks. Epidermal growth factor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) showed to be effective for LM in selected NSCLC patients in some retrospective research. Our single-center prospective research indicated that the incidence of EGFR sensitive mutations (EGFRm+) in NSCLC-LM patients was high and EGFR-TKIs showed a survival benefit for LM in EGFRm+ NSCLC patients. A multi-center prospective observational biomarker study will be started in 11 lung cancer center based on our single-center prospective research result. The aims of the study are to find predictive biomarkers for LM in advanced NSCLC, to establish EGFR-TKIs based comprehensive treatment for appropriate EGFRm+ LM cases, and to establish effective clinical assessment criteria for NSCLC-LM EGFR-TKIs treatment.
The Moffitt Cancer Center and PatientsLikeMe.com (PLM), an online patient community, are working together to better understand the patient's entire lung cancer experience, both inside and outside the doctor's office. By combining the data that is captured by their care team in the clinic with the data participants enter at their home on PatientsLikeMe.com, the investigators hope to improve patient-physician treatment decisions, so that the patient's personal treatment goals and quality of life have the highest chances of being fulfilled.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of combining the drugs osimertinib and bevacizumab at different dose levels. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, taking osimertinib and bevacizumab has on the patient and lung cancer. This study will try to find the best dose of osimertinib and bevacizumab given together that does not cause significant side effects. Once the investigators determine that combining osimertinib and bevacizumab is safe, they want to see if the combination is effective in treating lung cancers with the EGFR mutation.
Anorexia is common symptom in cancer patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. However timely detection with objective tools is necessary to establish the diagnosis of anorexia and to assess the magnitude of change over time. The anorexia pathophysiology is not clearly understood and treatment options are limited. Anecdotal historical benefits of smoking marijuana on nausea, pain and anorexia led to studies with marijuana and synthetic cannabinoids from Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, the main active agent in marijuana. The endogenous cannabinoid system with its receptors CB1 and CB2 regulate appetite in four functional levels: (1) limbic system (hedonistic quality), (2) hypothalamus (appetite stimulant), (3) intestinal, and (4) tissue adipose. Nabilone, a synthetic analogue of THC approved in Mexico for nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy is also used in palliative care units for clinical improvement in increased appetite patients in terminal stages, however, there are no clinical trials demonstrating this benefit.
