Filter by:Thoracic radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy (with or without immunotherapy) is the cornerstone of management in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
This study explores the role of T cells in monitoring disease status and response during anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment in patients with melanoma, lung and other cancer types. Measuring levels of specific targets such as Bim and soluble PD-L1 during therapy may help track treatment resistance and clinical outcomes. This information may also help researchers determine why some people with melanoma, lung and other cancer types respond to PD-1/PD-L1 treatment and others do not.
This Phase 1 trial aimed to determine the maximum tolerated fraction dose (MTD) of hypofractionated radiotherapy (hypo-RT) combined with concurrent chemotherapy and subsequent consolidation immune checkpoint inhibitors (cICI) for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC).
ProCaLung is a national registry collecting radiation treatment parameters of patients having lung cancer that extends to mediastinal lymph nodes. The project includes a peer review activity. The purpose of this public health program is similar to an audit whose objective is to promote quality of radiation oncology in Belgium. It is run by Institut Jules Bordet on behalf of the College of Physicians for Radiotherapy Centers of the Belgian Health Federal Public Service, in close collaboration with the Belgian Cancer Registry. All Belgian radiotherapy centers are invited to participate in ProCaLung but their participation is not mandatory. The centers who accept to participate show a commitment to quality assurance as the radiotherapy-treatment-related parameters they generate will be analyzed to establish national statistics. It includes a peer-review process based on international guidelines for mediastinal nodes delineations given for informational purposes. The public interest program also collects technical parameters as they were planned and delivered during the course of chest radiation treatment. This includes the delineations of tumors, nodes and chest organs on simulation-CT images, PET/CT images, chest-CT images and the clinical information related to the lung cancer. Results/statistics will be published at the end of the project.
This phase IV study is hoping to determine if examining the microbiome in non-small cell lung cancer participants who will receive durvalumab can predict treatment toxicity.
This Phase I/Il studies the side effects of endobronchial ultrasound guided interstitial photodynamic therapy work in treating patients with lung cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes. Photodynamic therapy consists of injecting a light sensitive drug called a photosensitizer, such as porfimer sodium, into the vein, waiting for it to accumulate in the tumor, and then activating it with a red laser light. Giving photodynamic therapy with Porfimer sodium may reduce the tumor size in patients with lung cancer.
