Filter by:The purpose of this study is to estimate and compare the objective response rate of SPI-1620 administered in combination with docetaxel in patients with NSCLC and to determine the safety of SPI-1620 when administered in combination with docetaxel.
Primary Objective: Correlation of the skin and/or eye toxicity grade secondary to Cetuximab or Panitumumab and the SNP profile of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) domain III region. Secondary Objectives: Correlation of SNP profile with indicators of tumour response parameters, such as radiological response, duration of response, time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS) time, incidence of non-dermatological adverse events.
This is a pilot study, single-center, prospective, open-label, to assess the acceptability and performance of the experimental medical device (SPI) used during an imaging examination (PET / CT 4D imaging in synchronized mode centered on the thorax). Each patient will be its own control, since the imaging examination will be synchronized simultaneously with the two systems: tested Medical Device (SPI) and reference Medical Device(RPM).
The purpose of this study is to learn whether it is better to receive the drug Metformin with standard of care for lung cancer or just standard of care.
Part A of this study will investigate the Maximum Tolerated Dose of Debio 0932 in combination with standard of care chemotherapy for the first- and second-line treatment of advanced NSCLC.
This pilot clinical trial studies low-dose acetylsalicylic acid in treating patients with stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer. Studying samples of urine and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes in biomarkers that occur during treatment with acetylsalicylic acid
This is a pilot study to test the hypothesis that biofeedback-mediated stress management (BFSM) training can be used to reduce distress and enhance quality of life in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Most patients with advanced NSCLC have significant physical symptoms, but even those who do not have physical symptoms have high levels of anxiety and depression.
Lung cancer has been the leading cancer worldwide, which can be divided into small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on biology, therapy, and prognosis. NSCLC accounts for more than 85% of all lung cancer cases and has a poor prognosis with only 15% of all lung cancer patients alive 5 years or more after diagnosis. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) originated from Chinese philosophy is a different medical system from conventional western medicine. It focuses on health maintenance and emphasizes on harmonizing the imbalance of body. Current studies show that TCM has the advantages of increasing the sensitivity of chemo- and radio-therapeutics, reducing the side effects and chemo- and radio-therapeutics associated complications, improving patients' quality of life and survival time. However, how TCM can work with conventional medicine for the treatment of carcinoma is still an important research topic worldwide. Syndrome, the essential concept in TCM theory, is a diagnostic conclusion of the pathological changes at a certain stage of a disease, including the location, cause, and nature as well as the trend of development. This study aims to investigate the distribution of TCM syndromes, the changing pattern among NSCLC patients before and after having surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, and the correlations with patient quality of life and progression free survival. The results are important for establishing guidelines for TCM practice and research in future.
The purpose of this study is to examine the valu of individually dose escalated radiotherapy compared with a standard dose of radiotherapy combined with standard concomitant chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced non small cell lung cancer (stage III) with good performance status.
TITLE : Circulating tumor cells identification in advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (CIRCUBRONCH) BACKGROUND : Circulating tumor cells identification is a new field of research in oncology, and some studies have been conducted with success on breast and prostate cancer. Nearly 80% of lung cancers are diagnosed in an advanced stage (IIIB, and IV). Circulating tumor cells identification and monitoring these cells after treatment could help the clinicians to detect relapse or be a prognostic factor. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE : Circulating tumor cells identification, and monitoring in advanced stage lung cancers (IIIB and IV). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES : Predictive value of the monitoring of circulating tumor cells on the therapeutic response. Prognostic value of identification of circulating tumor cells at the time of diagnosis. STUDY DESIGN : This study is a prospective, monocentrique trial analyzing the identification of circulating tumor cells in stage IIIB, and IV non-small cell lung cancers. Duration of the inclusions: 54 months. Duration of the study: 66 months. PROCEDURES : Detection of circulating tumor cells with CellSearch system (Veridex), and a cut-off of 5 cells/7,5 ml of blood. SAMPLE SIZE : 200 patients STATISTICAL ANALYSIS : Detection of circulating tumor cells is predicted in 20% of stage IIIB, and IV non-small cell lung cancers included in this study. The cut-off is 5 circulating tumor cells per 7,5 ml of blood.
