Filter by:This study is designed to establish biosimilarity of SB8, a proposed biosimilar product of bevacizumab, to EU-sourced bevacizumab, in patients with metastatic or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
A randomized phase II study of palliative radiation of advanced central lung tumors with intentional avoidance of the esophagus. Patients will be randomized between standard of care palliative thoracic radiation and esophageal-sparing intensity-modulated radiation therapy (ES-IMRT) in a 1:1 ratio. Radiotherapy will be administered as soon as possible following randomization and subjects will be followed for 1 year after completion of their radiation therapy. The primary endpoint is esophageal quality of life as measured by the Esophageal Cancer Subscore (ECS) of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Esophagus (FACT-E).
The program will provide early access to the investigational drug gilotrif in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have failed at least 6 months on erlotinib or gefitinib. The Compassionate Use Programme will also provide additional safety information on gilotrif use.
Concurrent chemoradiotheray is the standard care for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but often accompanying with high toxicity and poor tolerability. Radiosensitization of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) has been proved in preclinical studies, and the safety of TKI combined with thoracic radiotherapy has also been evaluated in several phase II trials. The aim of study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of thoracic radiotherapy combined with TKI in wild-type EGFR patients who refused or unsuitable for concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
third generation of EGFR-TKIs is the newest target therapy for NSCLC. However, we did not known the specific mechanisms for those non-responders and patients grow resistance.Next generation sequencing is current the most sensitive and specific method to exam gene mutation, diversion etc. By consistently detect the cf-DNA, we could possibly find out the mechanisms of response and resistance.
By detecting the blood concentration of paclitaxel (PTX), Investigator assume this research can identify the individual differences of PTX pharmacokinetics (PK) parameters (TC>0.05 refers to the duration of paclitaxel plasma concentration above 0.05 µmol/L) in Chinese non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, and find the correlation between PK results and PTX toxicities and Effectiveness, acquire the optimization method of PTX, and finally try to explore the individualized PTX pharmacokinetically-guided dosing strategy. Orally administer rosiglitazone, which is a substrate of CYP2C8 the same as paclitaxel, before chemotherapy injection. Detect the blood concentration of rosiglitazone, analyze the correlation of rosiglitazone pharmacokinetic parameter and paclitaxel exposure, and explore the effect of rosiglitazone as an in vivo probe of paclitaxel exposure. 1. The variability of paclitaxel concentrations in the patient population dosed by body surface area (BSA), and the limitation of BSA-based dosing of paclitaxel. 2. Verify that paclitaxel TC>0.05 is the most relevant predictor of haematological toxicity and clinical outcomes. 3. Define a dosing algorithm based on paclitaxel TC>0.05 of paclitaxel and quantify its effect on both reducing toxicity and improving Effectiveness. 4. The effect of using dose modification and administration of G-CSF based on toxicity determined by paclitaxel TC>0.05 measurement. 5. Construct a trial outline with the aim of reducing grade 4 neutropenia toxicity and ensuring the clinical outcome by using individual dose adjustments based on the dosing algorithm. 6. Detect the blood concentration of rosiglitazone after orally administration, explore the effect of rosiglitazone as an in vivo probe of paclitaxel exposure based on CYP2C8 activity. Attempt to establish a model to predict the paclitaxel exposure of patients base on rosiglitazone blood concentration before chemotherapy.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of brigatinib to that of crizotinib in ALK+ locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) participants naive to ALK inhibitors, as evidenced by progression-free survival (PFS).
The main purpose of this study is to explore if the combination of autologous NK cell infusion and chemotherapy can increase the therapeutic efficiency in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer compared with chemotherapy alone.
The development of anti-angiogenesis drugs has led to renewed enthusiasm in lung cancer treatments. Apatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor which selectively inhibits the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2). Etoposide is an oral preparation for lung cancer which is recommended by NCCN guideline. The investigators wondered whether these two drugs have synergistic effects when treating advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients who failed to previous at least 2nd line treatments. Thus, the aim of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with etoposide in heavily pretreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
The aims of the study are to reduce acute radiation induced side effects, i.e. pneumonitis and esophagitis grade II or higher by the use of proton therapy compared to photon radiotherapy of equal total dose. Secondary endpoints include evaluation of quality of life, loco-regional control, survival and late radiation induced side effects.
