Filter by:This study is a open-label, dose-escalating + dose-expansion clinical study, aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CEA-targeted CART cell preparations, and to reliminarily observe the study drug in CEA-positive advanced malignant tumors. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of CART cell preparations for the treatment of patients with CEA-positive advanced malignancies were obtained and the recommended dose and infusion schedule.
This is an open label, Phase 1, dose escalation trial evaluating the safety of oncolytic adenovirus TILT-123 in combination with Pembrolizumab in patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor refractory non-small cell lung cancer.
Comparative study comparing polypropylene and Polyglactin in suturing of the lung
This is a multi-center, clinical trial evaluating the effect of adding transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy to EBUSTBNA for its ability to improve the likelihood of obtaining tissue sufficient for molecular analysis. Patients in outpatient clinics or pre-operative holding areas planning to undergo a bronchoscopic biopsy of a suspected malignant lesion (peripheral or mediastinal) for initial diagnosis, staging, or acquisition of tissue for molecular analysis will be considered for enrollment and consented. Patients will only be enrolled if intraoperative ROSE of a mediastinal 8 lymph node or mass suggests malignancy. Patients will be randomized to continue with the operator's initial EBUS-TBNA needle or switch to a cryoprobe to perform a transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy.
Despite scientific evidence, use of liquid biopsy (LB) in diagnosis and monitoring of lung cancer (LC) is limited since it requires major changes in diagnostic and care pathways. Analyzing tumor markers (TMs), circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood (LB) can inform about the nature of the tumor, the most appropriate therapy, therapy response and resistance. Lungmarker2 is a multicenter, prospective, implementation and diagnostic cohort study. This study aims to implement up-front ctDNA analysis ('plasma first approach') into routine diagnostic work-up of all advanced stage LC patients in the Southeast of the Netherlands (the participating hospitals in the OncoZON region). Thereby, additional information about the molecular make-up of the tumor becomes available, the number of tissue Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) analyses will decrease and time to therapeutic decision making is shortened. Next, using ctDNA, TM and other information, multi-parametric decision support models are built and validated that may support diagnosis, predict the outcome of the next imaging procedure and progression-free survival during follow-up. The final goal is to develop a super-resolution microscopy test that can detect PD-L1 expression on CTCs.
Investigators conducted an observational diagnostic study. The primary objective of the study is to develop a scoring system for detecting pre-lung cancer abnormalities using narrow-band imaging (NBI) bronchoscopy. From the collected data, investigators will perform a multivariate analysis based on the odds ratio (OR) using IBM SPSS software. The result of the data analysis will be transformed into a scoring system aimed to facilitate the early diagnosis of lung cancer, specifically at the pre-cancer stage. This scoring system will also help clinicians detect pre-cancerous abnormalities early and improve patient recovery prospects. Several research questions to be addressed are as follows: 1. What are the NBI image criteria for detecting pre-cancerous lesions in lung tumor patients? 2. What is the diagnostic profile of NBI bronchoscopy in detecting pre-cancerous lesions in lung tumor patients? 3. Can adding the NBI bronchoscopy procedure to the standard bronchoscopy procedure enhance the diagnostic accuracy in detecting pre-cancerous lesions in lung tumor patients? The study population consists of lung tumor patients who have undergone bronchoscopy procedures and meet the protocol acceptance criteria. Bronchial biopsies will be collected from these patients, followed by histopathological examinations.
This is a clinical trial from the Eastern Cooperative Thoracic Oncology Project (ECTOP), numbered as ECTOP-1020. The goal of this clinical trial is to confirm the therapeutic effect of Wedge resection for ground-glass opacity-featured lung cancer with a size less than 2cm and a consolidation-to-tumor ratio between 0.25 to 0.5.
To date, lung resection and lymphadenectomy remain the best curative option in patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Moreover, cancer screening programs have led to a frequent diagnoses of indeterminate lung lesions, many of which require surgical biopsy for diagnosis and intervention. Additionally, pre-operative imaging assessment frequently underestimates lymph-node involvement. Finally, the increase in the utilization of minimally invasive procedures remains mandatory. The aim of our project is to verify if Cetuximab-IRDye800 could detect cancer nodules and lymph node metastases during minimally invasive thoracic surgery. A result favoring the use of Cetuximab-IRDye800 would permit the use of a minimally invasive approach to a more significant number of patients, which are presently operable only by a traditional "open" approach. Consequentially, it would lead to an improvement in surgical outcomes, a reduction of costs, and an enhanced patient quality of life. In addition, a result favoring Cetuximab-IRDye800 could consent to correctly remove mislead metastatic lymph nodes (i.e., unexpected lymph-nodes metastasis) and neoplastic localization unidentified at pre-operative diagnostic assessments. It would lead to more accurate cancer staging, and a tailored post-operative treatment. Finally, the investigators expect to validate using Cetuximab-IRDye800 as an optimal tracker that can be easily applied intraoperatively during minimally invasive surgical procedures.
This is a study in adults from Asia with different types of advanced cancer (solid tumours). People can join the study if they have cancer of the stomach, large bowel and rectum, pancreas, liver, head and neck or non-small cell lung cancer. This is a study for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or no treatment exists. People can participate if their tumour has the B7-H6 marker. The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of BI 765049 that people with advanced cancer can tolerate when taken (alone and) together with ezabenlimab. Another purpose is to check whether BI 765049 taken (alone and) together with ezabenlimab can make tumours shrink. Both medicines may help the immune system fight cancer. Participants can stay in the study up to 3 years, as long as they can tolerate it and can benefit from it. During this time, they visit the study site about every 3 weeks. At the study site they get BI 765049 alone or in combination with ezabenlimab as an infusion into a vein. BI 765049 is given in 3-week cycles, ezabenlimab is given once every 3 weeks. The doctors check the health of the participants and note any health problems that could have been caused by BI 765049 or ezabenlimab. Doctors regularly check the size of the tumour and check whether it has spread to other parts of the body.
The precise diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer is not only a major national strategic need but also an urgent demand from the general public. The "three stages" of precise diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer include early diagnosis, effective treatment, and precise evaluation. Currently, invasive methods are mainly used in these three stages of clinical practice. The non-invasive molecular diagnosis of early-stage lung cancer and the molecular evaluation of treatment efficacy are critical core issues in lung cancer clinical diagnosis and treatment. In response to this problem, this project aims to use exhaled breath as a sample to develop a scientific instrument with independent intellectual property rights, which integrates early-stage diagnosis of lung cancer and evaluation of treatment efficacy. We will also conduct related application research to meet the needs of the public and contribute to the health of the entire population.
