Filter by:Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Early diagnosis is linked to a better prognosis. Further, surgical resection at the early stages of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) results in markedly improved survival rates. Computed tomography (CT)- or bronchoscopy-guided needle biopsies are standard definitive diagnostic procedures for lung cancer and are used to obtain tissue for pathological examination. However, these procedures are invasive, difficult to repeat, expensive, and risk exposure to radiation. Conversely, liquid biopsies, such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and extracellular vesicles (EVs), are simple and less invasive procedures that can be repeated more frequently than tissue biopsies. This study is a retrospective blood sample obtained and prospectively comparative analysis of various biomarkers (cancer markers, and exosome markers) derived from peripheral blood and pulmonary venous blood from patients who underwent lung cancer surgery. And treatment monitoring using biomarkers compare with peripheral and pulmonary blood.
Phase I to evaluate the safety and feasibility of same-day discharge in selected participants undergoing minimally-invasive lung surgery and who receive an enhanced recovery pathway.
Lung cancer is by far the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women worldwide and the second most common cancer in terms of new cases. Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is the deadliest form of lung cancer. The standard first-line treatment is the combination of carboplatin, etoposide, and atezolizumab. While response rates for this regimen are high (roughly 60%), the duration of response is short, typically 4 months. Following progression after the 1st line treatment of SCLC, there is no consensus regarding subsequent therapy. Lurbinectedin is FDA approved and is increasingly preferred in clinical practice. Toxicity was significant, but appeared favorable compared to historic results with topotecan, leading to the adoption of this therapy for second-line SCLC. The toxicity profile was dominated by myelosuppression. This study investigates the effect of Trilaciclib on myelosuppression rate in subjects with platinum refractory extensive stage (ES)- SCLC receiving Lurbinectedin as well as the clinical synergy of Trilaciclib and Lurbinectedin combination.
Lung Cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Taiwan and worldwide and the incidence is also increasing. The payment for lung cancer which occupies the largest part of National Health Insurance expense is over 15 billion in 2018. Because about 80% lung cancer patients are smokers in western countries the low-dose computed tomography screening focuses on the smoking population It is quite different in South-East Asia particularly in Taiwan that 53% of Taiwan lung cancer are never-smokers and the etiology and the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. The preliminary results of prospective TALENT study indicated that family history plays a key role in tumorigenesis of Taiwan lung cancers but several important variables such as air pollution, biomarkers, radiomics analysis are not available limits the accuracy of lung cancer identification. Hence, it is critical to integrate most of factors involved in lung cancer formation into a multidimensional lung cancer prediction model which could benefit never-smoker lung cancers in Taiwan and East Asia even in the western countries. The investigators initiate a clinical study to validate the multidimensional lung cancer prediction model for never-smoking population by multicenter prospective study.
This is an open-label, non-randomized, Phase 1b/2 study to determine the safety and tolerability of NC410 when combined with a standard dose of pembrolizumab. This study will also assess the clinical benefit of combination therapy in participants with advanced unresectable and/or metastatic ICI refractory solid tumors OR ICI naïve MSS/MSI-low solid tumors
The overall objective of this study is to evaluate procedure characteristics of pulmonary nodule biopsies using the integrated version of Cios Spin and the Ion Endoluminal System.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of mortality in the world, and also in Taiwan.Despite the researches and availability in new therapies, it causes the highest mortality and is one of the most preventable cancers as well. Smoking is the most common cause of lung cancer worldwide. Compared to lung cancer in smokers, lung cancer in never-smokers is associated with East Asian ethnicity, female sex, and adenocarcinoma histology. This unique risk group is likely to have distinct molecular drivers, especially EGFR, ALK, and ROS1 mutations.In National Taiwan Cancer Registry data, more than half (53%) of all newly diagnosed lung cancer patients and 93% of female patients are lifelong never-smokers. This scenario is common in East Asia. It is essential to develop a different strategy for screening lung cancer patients with other high-risk profiles. Several risk factors have been identified in never-smoking lung cancer and one of the most important factor is a lung cancer family history (LCFH) in a first-degree relative. Other high-risk occupational or environmental factors include air-pollution exposed occupations (such as traffic policeman and street cleaners) for at least 10 years, cooking index ≥ 110, defined as 2/7 * days cooking by pan frying, stir frying, or deep frying in one week * years cooking, cooking without using ventilation, passive smoke exposure, and history of pulmonary tuberculosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disorders. As described above, three high risk groups are interested in this study, the previous heavy smokers (group 1); those who has family history (group 2) and those who have high risk occupation or environment factors (group 3). From the published researches, we assume the detection rate to be 1.1% for group 1 based on NLST results16, 2.6% for group 2 (395 out of 12,011 subjects in TALENT), and we assume the detection Group 3 to be 1% after consulting board-certified senior specialists in this field. This is a prospective, multi-center, single arm study in Taiwan of subjects who are eligible to receive LDCT screening based on recommendation of Health Promotion Administration of Taiwan. The primary objective of TRIO part A is the LDCT screening acceptance rate of high lung cancer risk subjects. The primary objective of TRIO part B is the exact lung cancer detection rates in these three groups. Other secondary objectives are also included.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide in spite of the advanced progresses in medication and low-dose CT screening. The early-stage lung cancer accounts for less than 50% of newly diagnosed lung cancer in Taiwan, even in stage IB patients proximately 30% still suffer from recurrence and metastasis. The International Cancer Moonshot Project recently established the first comprehensive proteogenomics profiling of early-stage lung cancer patients in East Asia, revealing a proteomics-informed classification to identify a new "late like" subtype, which can identify a subgroup of early-stage patients with worse clinicopathological features (Cell, Cover story, 2020). This study has been featured in prestigious journals (Nat Rev Clin Oncol; Cancer Discov, 2020) and led to two provisional US patents. In this proposal, taking the discovery from the Cancer Moonshot multiomics database, the investigators aim to translate these findings into clinical utilities. Two subprojects are proposed. (1) Validation of "late-like" protein markers for identifying high-risk early-stage lung cancer: Two IVD kits will be developed, including high-risk early-stage lung cancer IHC prediction kit for tumor staining and high-risk early lung cancer ELISA prediction kit for noninvasive diagnosis. (2) Conducting a prospective clinical trial to evaluate the accuracy of high-risk early-stage lung cancer IHC prediction kit and high-risk early-stage lung cancer ELISA prediction kit.
APOLLO 11 main aim is to build a strong Italian long-lasting lung cancer network (in around 48 Italian centres) on real world data and translational research by creating a decentralized long-term national database (settle locally in each centre) and a "virtual" multilevel biobank in each centre. Besides, APOLLO 11 will take advantage of the translational research joint effort with the credo "unity is strength".
The purpose of this study is to compare the predictive performance of a CT-based deep learning model for pure-solid nodules classification and compared with the tumor maximum standardized uptake value on PET in a multicenter prospective cohort.
