Filter by:Postoperative pneumonia is one of the most common complications after lung cancer surgery and associated with a morbidity and mortality. Postoperative lymphopenia has been recently identified as one of risk factors for postoperative pneumonia. According to recent studies in polytrauma, cancer or septic shock, T cells dysfunction may be related to high expression of inhibitory receptors on lymphocytes.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the bioequivalency of two preparations of ensartinib capsules in Chinese healthy volunteers.
This study is a prospective observational study which aim to evaluate the feasibility of a total and systematic home respiratory rehabilitation training program in patients who will undergo thoracic surgery, and otherwise tend to define failure reasons.
Exploratory phase II trial of intravenous (IV) Pembrolizumab MK-3475 as second or further line with advanced Non-small cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who have failed to a prior treatment with anti-PDL1 drug. Pembrolizumab 200 mg ,Q3W, IV infusion, Day 1 of each 3 week cycle will be administered until disease progression.
This is a phase I clinical study. Blood is drawn from the patient and brought to our laboratory for isolation of immune cells. These immune cells are then proliferated over a two week period and used to produce our patented product IKC (Immune Killer Cells). The IKC will then infused back into the patient to treat the cancer. Each patient will receive a total of six infusions.
The purpose of the study is to document real-world pattern of care, outcomes and health resource use for participants diagnosed with and receiving treatment for advanced Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and extensive disease Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) in China.
There are 13.7 million Americans currently living with a history of cancer. With continued improvements in cancer treatment and increasing life expectancy, this number is expected to reach nearly 18 million within the next decade. The care of these cancer patients, including surveillance during the post-treatment survivorship phase, is an increasingly important major health care concern and expenditure. As the fourth leading diagnosis among cancer survivors, lung cancer is emerging as a chronic problem that currently affects over 450,000 Americans and is expected to grow by nearly 20% by 2022. Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the United States. Of the estimated 182,550 patients newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) this year, approximately 35% will present with localized disease and be eligible for curative resection. For patients with limited NSCLC, surgical resection is the most effective method of controlling the primary tumor and provides the best opportunity for cure. A recent analysis by this group demonstrated that the number of lung cancer resections has increased over the past decade, with over 45,000 lung cancer resections performed annually in the US. This research will address a critical gap in knowledge because the optimal approach to post-treatment surveillance following lung cancer resection is unknown. The intensity of recommended surveillance visits ranges from every 3 months during the first two years to an annual visit. Imaging modalities range from CT scans to chest radiographs to no routine imaging for asymptomatic patients. The reason for these significant differences is a lack of quality data on lung cancer surveillance and clinical guidelines based largely on small retrospective analyses and expert opinion. The National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) provides real world national lung cancer resection and surveillance data on over 70% of newly diagnosed lung cancers from more than 1,500 institutions. This study will compare the effectiveness of the three most common surveillance intensities (CT scans every 3 months vs. 6 months vs. annually) on the stakeholder selected outcome of survival. All analyses will be risk adjusted for differences in patient characteristics at baseline, including tumor characteristics, patient age, comorbid disease, and other potential confounders. Analyses will also be adjusted for the competing risk of death.
In this study, the investigators will analyze the impact of digital PET/CT on the final diagnostic conclusion of the scan in patients with lung cancer, breast cancer, esophageal cancer and a group of mescellaneous cancers.
This was a study to investigate the potential clinical benefit of G1T38 as an oral therapy in combination with osimertinib in patients with EGFR mutation-positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. The study was an open-label design, planned to consist of 2 parts: a safety, pharmacokinetic, and dose-finding portion (Part 1), and a randomized portion (Part 2). Both parts were to include 3 study phases: Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and Survival Follow-up Phase. The Treatment Phase began on the day of first dose with study treatment and completes at the Post-Treatment Visit. Approximately, 144 patients were planned to be enrolled in the study.
To demonstrate that the specificity of the Hummingbird microRNA profile for the diagnosis of lung cancer in a cohort of patients who meet current eligibility criteria for lung cancer screening in the U.S. is superior to the specificity of LDCT.
