Filter by:The purpose of the study is to assess whether lung ultrasound is able to detect lung injury after lung resection surgery.
As the detection of small pulmonary nodules continuously grows, the intraoperative localization of small pulmonary nodules is in great demand. The intraoperative localization nowadays is usually done under local anesthesia before surgery. There is a certain rate of failure and complication. The result of our early animal experiments show that the pulmonary surgery marker system can deliver the intraoperative localization safely and precisely under anesthesia, and the average distance between the localization and the simulated lesion is less than 5mm during surgery. Therefore, the safety and feasibility of the system require further evaluation in patients
The main endpoint is physiological rehabilitation after VATS-L under early mobilization. The secondary endpoints are exploring the effect of early mobilization on postoperative physiology. Investigators hypothesis that early mobilization is clearly advantaged to advance the physiological recovery.
Small cell lung cancer is a highly malignant tumor, and its first-line treatment has not broken through platinum-containing dual-drug chemotherapy in the past 30 years. Because small cell lung cancer has the characteristics of easy resistance after first-line chemotherapy, increased difficulty in treatment after resistance, and poor efficacy of second-line treatment, how to formulate a plan that can control tumor progression to the greatest extent has become a hot issue in recent research. Recently, immunotherapy and targeted therapy have made breakthrough progress in small cell lung cancer, but its efficacy still needs to be further improved. As immune combined chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy first achieved good results in other tumors, this study aims to explore a longer disease-free survival time and higher overall survival rate of patients with small cell lung cancer through immunotherapy combined with targeted therapy combined with chemotherapy. Program to bring new hope to patients. At the same time, this study will evaluate the safety of the program, explore the prognostic indicators that may exist in the treatment, and provide new inspiration for subsequent patient selection.
To determine the minimum scan duration for fluorine-18 positron-emitting radioactive isotope-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scans performed on a total-body PET/CT scanner that results in non-inferior image quality to 18F-FDG PET/CT scans performed on a conventional PET/CT scanner. The subject population will be patients being staged for lung cancer, lymphoma, or melanoma.
Serious side effects occurs with disease and treatments in survival after lung cancer. For this reason, functional capacity, cognitive status, pain perception and respiratory functions may be affected in lung cancer. The purpose of this study was to evaluate respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength and endurance, functional capacity, pain, cognitive status level, and physical activity in lung cancer patients and compare with the findings of healthy subjects
The objective of this protocol is to test the effectiveness of a Jumpstart intervention on patient-centered outcomes for patients with chronic illness by ensuring that they receive care that is concordant with their goals over time, and across settings and providers. This study will examine the effect of the EHR-based intervention to improve quality of palliative care for patients 55 years or older with chronic, life-limiting illness with a particular emphasis on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The specific aims are: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness of a novel EHR-based (electronic health record) clinician Jumpstart guide, compared with usual care, for improving the quality of care; the primary outcome is documentation of a goals-of-care discussion in the period between randomization and 30 days following randomization. Secondary outcomes focus on intensity of care: ICU use, ICU and hospital length of stay, costs of care during the hospitalization, and 7 and 30-day hospital readmissions. 2. To conduct a mixed-methods evaluation of the implementation of the intervention, guided by the RE-AIM framework for implementation science, incorporating quantitative evaluation of the intervention's reach and adoption, as well as qualitative analyses of interviews with participants, to explore barriers and facilitators to future implementation and dissemination.
This is an international, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study designed to evaluate whether the potent and selective RET inhibitor, pralsetinib, improves outcomes when compared to a platinum chemotherapy-based regimen chosen by the Investigator from a list of standard of care treatments, as measured primarily by progression free survival (PFS), for participants with RET fusion-positive metastatic NSCLC who have not previously received systemic anticancer therapy for metastatic disease.
The Multi-OutcoMe EvaluatioN of radiation Therapy Using the Unity MR-Linac Study (MOMENTUM) is a multi-institutional, international registry facilitating evidenced based implementation of the Unity MR-Linac technology and further technical development of the MR-Linac system with the ultimate purpose to improve patients' survival, local, and regional tumor control and quality of life.
This is a double blind randomized controlled study investigating the efficacy of a single dose of 150 mg risedronate (a bone anti-resorptive) vs a single dose of placebo given prior to SBRT for peripheral lung tumors that are within 2 cm of the chest wall. Our hypothesis is that the use of a single dose of 150 mg risedronate will eliminate or greatly reduce the rapid bone loss that occurs with radiation induced early osteoclast recruitment/activation. Patients will be given either a single dose of 150 mg risedronate or placebo at the time of their treatment mapping "simulation" CT scan. Typically, radiation treatments begin at 1 - 3 weeks following this mapping scan, as each treatment plan requires detailed physics calculations and quality assurance checks. All CT imaging referenced below is performed as a routine standard of care surveillance and is necessary for cancer treatment follow-up. These chest CT scans that are utilized in this research protocol would be performed every 3 months regardless of inclusion on this trial.
