Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the overall survival of nivolumab versus chemotherapy in subjects with relapsed SCLC.
It is a single-arm, open label clinical trial. Patients affected by relapsed or refractory small-cell lung cancer patients with MGMT promoter methylation are included in this study; they will be treated with oral Temozolomide 200 mg/m2 die for 5 consecutive days every 28 days. Treatment will be continued until tumor progression, intolerable toxicity or patient refusal. A Minimax Simon 2-stage design will be used. - First stage: 9 patients If 1 or less responses will be observed, the trial will be ended.- Second stage: other 10 patients (for a total of 19 subjects enrolled) If 5 or less responses will be observed in 19 patients, the treatment will not be considered active, while if 6 or more responses will be observed, the treatment will be considered sufficiently active to warrant further testing. Since the rate of methylation ranges from 20 to 48% the number of patients to be screened should be between 40 and 95. The primary objective is to determine the overall response rate [ORR = CR + PR]; the secondary objectives are to determine the time to Progression (TTP), the overall Survival (OS), the toxicity and the correlation between response Rate (RR) and the level of MGMT promoter methylation and/or base excision repair (BER) genes alterations.
This research study is evaluating the combination of olaparib and temozolomide as a possible treatment for Small Cell Lung Cancer.
The hypothesis of this study is that the addition of NovoTTF-100A System treatment to salvage chemotherapy will significantly increase time to treatment failure in the brain of small cell lung cancer patients.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of pembrolizumab when given together with chemoradiotherapy or radiation therapy in treating patients with small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells. Giving pembrolizumab with chemoradiotherapy or radiation therapy may be a better treatment for small cell lung cancer.
The main objective of this study i sto evaluate the impact of prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) with hippocampal avoidance in the neurocognitive function and quality of life of small cell lung cancer patients. In addition, the trial assesses the potential changes in hippocampal volumetry due to cranial irradiation using magnetic resonance imaging.
This research study is examining the benefit of a novel radiation planning approach on the likelihood of developing severe esophagitis (irritation and inflammation of the esophagus) during the course of radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy which is associated with very painful and difficult swallowing.
This is a Phase 1, first-in-human, dose escalation study in participants with advanced solid tumors to determine the pharmacokinetics, maximum tolerated dose and the recommended Phase 2 dose of ABBV-075 at different monotherapy dosing schedules. In addition the study will evaluate the safety. tolerability and the pharmacokinetics of ABBV-075 monotherapy or combination therapy in disease specific expansion cohorts.
To understand 295 gene mutation mutation status (include EGFR, HER2, KRAS, BRAF, PIK3CA,ect) by deep sequencing in Chinese patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma and their relationships with the patients' clinical features (including sex, age, smoking history and adenocarcinoma subtype), specify the predictive significance of the genes mutations for new targeted therapies in NSCLC patients, and better understand the molecular mechanism drug resistance to EGFR-TKIs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability and determine the MTD to subsequently define an RP2D of alisertib in combination with weekly paclitaxel in East Asian participants with advanced solid tumors.
