Filter by:Lung cancer (LC) is a common cancer in the world. Among all symptoms, Fatigue is considered as the most distressing medical condition of LC. Prior studies revealed that physical activity effectively relieve fatigue and related problems. The current study attempt to explore the effectiveness of SMART Exercise Support Program (SES) with the use of mobile instant messaging application, on reducing symptoms such as fatigue, and improving physical activity level, physical fitness performance, sleep quality and habits, and quality of life in advanced lung cancer (ALC) patients.
This prospective observational study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib in combination with Penpulimab in elderly patients with lung cancer. Data will be collected from each patient at baseline and after 4-6 cycles of therapy.
Background The term 'prehabilitation' refers to a period of time before treatment and often includes diet, exercise and/or wellbeing plans to help patients through their cancer treatment. Prehabilitation has shown to benefit patients having surgery, but there is little research into its use in the oncological setting. The United Kingdom sees more deaths from lung cancer than any other cancer. 70-80% of lung cancer patients receive oncological treatment. Treatment side effects can have a significant impact on quality of life. Personalised prehabilitation can take into account the challenges patients face, helping patients through treatment. Aim To see if a personalised plan of diet, exercise and emotional support can be used in practice for patients having chemotherapy, radiotherapy and/or immunotherapy treatment for lung cancer. Methods The study will involve lung cancer patients from Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust who are: - Over the age of 18 years old - Have not had previous lung cancer surgery and - Are about to start chemotherapy, radiotherapy or immunotherapy treatment The prehabilitation interventions will be based upon patient need and readiness, assessed using: - A series of questionnaires - An assessment of walking - A measure of grip strength These will be done prior to, at week three and at week six of a patient's oncological treatment regime. Personalised goals will be agreed at each stage. Throughout treatment, patients will be asked to keep a daily diary to record their symptoms, appetite, mobility and mood. The diary will also be used to monitor goal adherence. Public involvement Patients will be part of a study advisory group, helping with research design and dissemination e.g. with the presentation of findings to the lung cancer support group. Dissemination All patients will receive a written summary of findings. Results will be shared in a scientific journal and presented at relevant conferences. Patients will not be identifiable.
Evaluate the feasibility of using a chatbot combined with continuous activity monitoring to proactively identify, appropriately triage and help manage patients' symptoms during cancer treatment Determine whether such an early outpatient clinic-based intervention can decrease rates of excess triage visits Correlate changes in activity and early symptom management to emergency department visits, unplanned inpatient hospitalizations and treatment breaks
A single-arm, multicentre trial to investigate sotorasib in KRASG12C-mutated non-small cell lung cancer stage III/IV not amenable for curative treatment including patients with comorbidities, and to provide translational knowledge regarding mechanism of relapse and differences in responses, including differences among patients with different co-occurring mutations.
Lung cancer screening is based on low dose CT scan (LDCT), a highly sensitive but poorly specific tool. Complementary specific approaches are thus strongly needed, among which cell-free DNA (cfDNA) genotyping has been proven highly specific but of low sensitivity (25 to 50% for stage I diseases) due to inconstant tumor shed. Tumor biopsy is thus often required and radial endobronchial ultrasound (rEBUS) bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive approach (<3% complications) but of limited sensitivity in cases of nodules < 20 mm. The investigators hypothesized that methylation analysis on cfDNA floating in supernatant derived from rEBUS specimens could improve rEBUS sensitivity
The purpose of the study is to prove the clinical superiority of respiratory rehabilitation software "Redpill Breath" and evaluate the clinical improvement effect by 6-minute walk test of the software, compared to the manual rehabilitation management for those who need respiratory rehabilitation(COPD, Asthma, Lung Cancer, etc.)
This randomized study compared the incidence and severity of radiation esophagitis with folic acid and with conventional symptomatic treatment.
the purpose of this study is to identify multi-dimensional immunological biomarkers including cytokines, autoantibodies, and immune cell subtypes of immune-related adverse events (primary) and prognosis(secondary) in the anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy for lung cancer
The purpose of this research is to evaluate and determine the rate of successful administration of Percussive ventilation breathhold (PVB) to allow for more accurate radiotherapy for lung tumors.
