Filter by:Lung cancer (LC) screening using low-dose chest CT (LDCT) has already proven its efficacy. The mortality reduction associated with LC screening is around 20%, much higher than the reduction in mortality associated with screening for breast, colon or prostate cancers. Implementing lung cancer screening on a large scale faces two main obstacles: 1. The lack of thoracic radiologists and LDCT necessary for the eligible population (between 1.6 and 2.2 million people in France); 2. The high frequency of false positive screenings: in the NLST trial, more than 20% of the subjects screened were found to have at least one nodule of an indeterminate lung nodule (ILN) whereas less than 3% of ILNs are actually LC. The gold standard for determining on the benign or malignant nature of a nodule is definitive histology. Otherwise, the evolution of the nodule on serial thoracic imaging is a good alternative. The period of indeterminacy of a nodule can be as long as 24 months in many cases, which can be a source of prolonged and sometimes unjustified anxiety for screening candidates. The purpose of this randomized controlled study that focuses on LC screening in patients aged 50 to 80 years, who smoked more than 20 packs/ year or stopped smoking less than 15 years ago. Its objective is to determine whether assisting multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings with an AI-based analysis of screening LDCT accelerates the definitive classification of nodules into malignant or benign.
To learn if the combination of sarilumab (also called Kevzara) and cemiplimab can help to control EGFR- or LKB1/STK11-mutant NSCLC.
The primary objective of this pilot observational study is to evaluate the accrual and retention rate of a study population from a centralized lung cancer screening program to support MRI and blood-based biomarker research for lung cancer screening.
The objective of this Study is to collect, process, and transfer biologic samples such as blood and/or tissue biopsies to determine the concordance of detected alterations obtained through liquid biopsy analyses compared to next generation sequencing of time-matched or archival tissue specimens from individuals with advanced solid tumors. Examples of locally advanced and metastatic tumors include stage III and IV cancers (ex. lung, breast, all gastrointestinal malignancies, all gynecologic malignancies, prostate cancer, head and neck tumors, soft tissue cancers, and melanoma). These specimens will be analyzed for diagnostic purposes and research (either by Labcorp/OmniSeq or to a third-party recipient designated by Labcorp/OmniSeq). Labcorp/OmniSeq may transfer the specimens and data to its clients, including commercial, academic or non-profit research institutions; or alternatively, may retain the specimens in its repository for future research use at the sole discretion of Labcorp/OmniSeq and or assignees. Labcorp/OmniSeq will maintain all detailed clinical information including demographic data (de-identified), ethnicity, disease state, stage (radiological, pathological and clinical-whichever is relevant).
The goal of this quality improvement (QI) study is to develop automated clinical pipelines to implement machine learning models in the care pathway of lung cancer patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can model-prompted risk classifications be incorporated into clinician workflows to enable informed clinical decision-making? - What are clinicians' perceptions of the information from model outputs, and do they change their decision about data already available to them as a result of the model-prompted risk classification (i.e., to re-review or further assess patients identified by the models as being higher risk)? Participating radiation oncologists will receive the risk prediction from the model and be asked to complete a survey to give feedback on how they used the prediction in their decision-making.
The current practice of oxygenation and/or ventilation supports in patients undergoing Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy is very heterogeneous among studies published in the literature; in addition, clear outcomes advantages of one strategy over another currently lack. The goal of this observational study is to describe the current practice of oxygenation and/or ventilation supports in patients undergoing Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy (FOB), stratified by baseline respiratory condition, co-morbidities, type of procedure and hospital settings. Investigators will enroll all adult patients undergoing any fiberoptic bronchoscopy in any clinical settings (from outpatients to critically ill patients). No specific exclusion criteria are indicated for enrollment in this study. Investigators will record the following data: - Patient's baseline data. - Type of FOB procedure: toilet bronchoscopy (for secretions, blood, mucus plugs removal), broncho-aspirate (BAS), bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), brushing for cytology, biopsy, endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS). The type and size of bronchoscope (with or without an internal/external camera) and the time of the procedure will be also recorded. - Type of supportive strategy: no support, Standard Oxygen Therapy, High Flow Nasal Cannula, Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and or non invasive ventilation trough mask or helmet, invasive mechanical ventilation. - Sedation - Intra-procedural vital parameters - Occurrence of adverse events: desaturation (i.e. SpO2< 90% for at least 10 seconds), severe desaturation (i.e. SpO2< 80%), need for procedure interruption, hypotensive (systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg) or hypertensive (systolic blood pressure >140 mmHg) events, new onset of cardiac arrhythmias (specify the rhythm) or myocardial ischemia or electrocardiographic ST-alterations, neurological events (i.e. severe sensorium depression, psychomotor agitation). - Post-procedural vital parameters (15 minutes after the procedure). - Clinical outcomes: need for support escalation, need for admission to ward (for outpatient) or ICU (for outpatients and ward-admitted patient).
This is a prospective observational registration trial for patients who undergo lung transplantation for the treatment of the select groups of medically refractory cancers affecting the lungs alone without extrapulmonary nodal and distant metastasis.
This is a single-center, single-arm, open and exploratory clinical study. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the consistency and accuracy of the organogenic (PDO) model for patients with lung cancer, to predict the clinical efficacy of anticancer drugs, and to speculate and select personalized treatment regiments for patients with lung cancer who are resistant to multi-line standard therapies.
This is a two-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial. Routine perioperative care would be performed in volunteers with primary early lung cancer. The study will enroll approximately 300 volunteers to compare the progression-free or overall survival in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for primary lung tumors between propofol and sevoflurane for the maintenance of anesthesia.
Since the introduction of immune checkpoint ihibitors (ICIs) in cancer treatment, numerous studies have investigated different patient profiles to identify those who benefit from this class of drugs. Currently, hundreds of studies are being conducted with the aim of increasing the benefit of these therapies by combining ICIs with other treatments: immunomodulators, cytotoxics, targeted therapies, including cancer vaccines, which are peptides or RNA injected to trigger or increase a specific immune response against the tumor. Other approaches exist, such as oncology-specific "basket" studies, to focus on a genetic mutation independently of tumor location and determine whether a drug could treat the same genetic mutation found in several different locations. To date, ICIs are part of standard management in the US for patients with several diseases: advanced melanoma, NSCLC, Merkel cell carcinoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, urothelial and renal cell carcinoma, cancers characterized by microsatellite instability, refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, gastric cancer. In addition, trials are underway to investigate the benefit of ICIs in other locations. Thus, taking into account the growing importance of ICIs in the oncological therapeutic strategy and the large number of patients treated, a better understanding of the vascular impact of these drugs is necessary.
