Symptom burden remains a critical concern for individuals with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) following the completion of treatment. Of those, symptom clusters such as dyspnea (shortness of breath) and fatigue, contribute to physical decline, reductions in quality of life, and a higher risk of comorbidities and mortality. It has been proposed that dyspnea is a primary limiter of exercise capacity in individuals with lung cancer, resulting in exercise avoidance and an accelerated physical decline. As such, specifically designing resistance exercise programs with cluster sets, to mitigate feelings of dyspnea and fatigue may result in improved exercise tolerance, resulting in the maintenance of physical function and quality of life. The purpose of this project is to investigate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a hybrid-delivery of home-based cluster-set resistance exercise in individuals with NSCLC. Methods: Individuals with NSCLC (n=15), within 12-months of completion of treatment will be recruited to participate in this single arm feasibility trial. Participants will complete 8-weeks of home-based resistance training (RT) designed to target dyspnea and fatigue. The hybrid-delivery of the program will include supervised sessions in the participants home, and virtual supervision via video conferencing. The primary outcome of feasibility will be measured via recruitment rates, retention, acceptability and intervention fidelity. Exploratory outcomes (dyspnea, fatigue, quality of life, physical function and body composition) will be assessed pre- and post- intervention.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate how Moovcare®, a mobile medical application, can be used to monitor Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) related to cancer treatment, cancer complications, and cancer relapse in patients with lung cancer. PROs are symptoms directly reported by patients through the completion of a survey. Up to 50 patients undergoing treatment and/or surveillance for new or existing diagnoses of lung cancer at the University of North Carolina's Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center will be prospectively enrolled to the use of the mobile medical application Moovcare® for 6 months. Moovcare® is not FDA approved, and its role in improving clinical care is being studied through this research. Moovcare® automatically delivers electronic patient reported outcome (ePRO) surveys on common symptoms experienced by lung cancer patients.
Observational and multicenter retrospective study of data collection in hospital centers throughout the Spanish geography. This study aims to be nationwide in order to study general common variables of the patients, as well as the correlation with the cancer treatments received.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of BMS-986207 in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab as first-line treatment for participants with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
This study aimed to investigate the combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for patients with metastatic ALK fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who had failed from first line Alectinib. Additionally, available biological samples such as blood and tumor tissues were collected to explore potential biomarkers, including but not limited to RNA-seq, whole-exome sequencing (WES), whole-genome sequencing (WGS), immunohistochemistry, and multiplex immunofluorescence.
The Women Helping Women Lung Cancer Screening (WHW-L) Study will be conducted to develop a scalable, easy to apply community-based intervention to increase rates of lung cancer screening and follow-up in high-need/low-resource populations, based on a Transtheoretical Stages of Change theoretical model. The investigators will test the feasibility of using Community Health Workers to recruit (Aim 1) and partner with 60 community members (Aim 2) within 6 months, to take the steps to consult with a doctor, schedule screening, and/or attend screening (Aim 3) [84 people may be screened for the study assuming some don't continue}.CHWs will use the HealthStreet 12,000+ cohort to identify current or former female smokers (adults 50 to 77 years old) with a smoking history of 25 pack-years who could benefit from LDCT screening for lung cancer and will facilitate steps in their screening receipt. All participants will benefit from the Standard Intervention; additionally, a random sample of 30 will receive the Enhanced CHW Intervention (E-CHW-I). The investigators hypothesize that women who may be at higher risk of lung cancer due to lack of knowledge, access, and resources will take steps to receipt of LDCT in both interventions, with those receiving the Enhanced Intervention more likely to take these steps. Ultimately, such an intervention could lead to a lower lung cancer burden in the target population
This is a randomized controlled pilot trial of a text-based behavioral intervention aimed at increasing uptake of lung cancer screening among emergency department patients. We will conduct a 2-year randomized controlled clinical trial with a prospectively collected convenience sample of 366 adults who are eligible for LCS but non-adherent with LCS screening guidelines. Adults aged 50-80 will be recruited from a high-volume urban ED and a low-volume rural ED, assigned to study conditions, and followed-up at 150 days to assess interval engagement with the University of Rochester Medical Center's LCS screening program (primary outcome). Electronic Health Record (EHR) review will be conducted to assess screening results and subsequent clinical endpoints.
This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, drug levels, molecular effects and clinical activity of MRTX849 (adagrasib) in combination with BI 1701963 in patients with advanced solid tumors that have a KRAS G12C mutation.
Metastatic lung cancer patients experience significantly greater psychological distress (i.e., depression, anxiety) compared to other cancers. Psychological distress is as a prognostic indicator for worse clinical outcomes and poorer overall survival in cancer patients. Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) is a trans-diagnostic, evidence-based psychotherapy that teaches participants a core set of behavioral skills (distress tolerance, emotion regulation, mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness) to cope more effectively with emotional and physical symptoms. The proposed study seeks to adapt and pilot test DBT skills training for patients with metastatic lung cancer using the ADAPT-ITT framework. Participants will be metastatic lung cancer patients who score >=3 on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network distress thermometer. Phase I aims to use focus groups and interviews with key stakeholders (metastatic lung cancer patients (N=20), thoracic oncology providers (N=6), clinicians with expertise in survivorship and behavioral symptom management (N=6)) to determine if and how DBT skills training must be modified for implementation with metastatic lung cancer patients. Adapted material will be reviewed by topical experts in DBT and implementation science to produce a manualized, adapted DBT skills training protocol for metastatic lung cancer patients (LiveWell). Phase II aims to pilot test LiveWell (N=30) to assess feasibility, acceptability, and examine pre-to-post intervention outcomes of psychological distress, (i.e., depression and anxiety) fatigue, dyspnea, pain, emotion regulation, tolerance of uncertainty, and DBT coping skill use. LiveWell will consist of coping skills training sessions delivered either in-person or via videoconferencing technology. Study measures will be collected at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and 1-month post-intervention.
