Filter by:APG-1252 is a highly potent Bcl-2 family protein inhibitor, a promising drug candidate which shown high binding affinities to Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Bcl-w. The preclinical studies have shown that APG-1252 alone achieves complete and persistent tumor regression in multiple tumor xenograft models with a twice weekly or weekly dose-schedule, including SCLC, colon, breast and ALL cancer xenografts; achieves strong synergy with the chemotherapeutic agents, indicating that APG-1252 may have a broad therapeutic potential for the treatment of human cancer as a single agent and in combination with other classes of anticancer drugs. APG-1252 is intended for the treatment of patients with SCLC or other solid tumors. Upon completion of the Phase 1 dose escalation study to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), several phase Ib/II studies will be implemented accordingly.
Patients with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with no documented targetable alterations (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation, Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) translocation, ROS1 mutation if available or MET exon 14 skipping mutation if available) will receive a tri-therapy associating avelumab, axitinib and palbociclib.
To compare the efficacy of pegilodecakin in combination with nivolumab versus nivolumab alone in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer as measured by objective response rate.
To compare the efficacy of pegilodecakin in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer as measured by objective response rate.
This study is a single arm, multi-center phase II study of AZD 2811 monotherapy in patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) as a second or third line therapy. Patients will continue to receive study treatment as described above, until they demonstrate objective disease progression (determined by RECIST 1.1) or they meet any other discontinuation criteria.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of nivolumab plus epacadostat in combination with platinum chemotherapy compared with platinum chemotherapy alone, in participants with treatment-naïve Stage 4 or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The NSCLC patients who failed the standard treatments, with positive Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, were enrolled into this trial. About 22 advanced NSCLC patients will be screened according to the criteria. The qualified patients will be recruited and sign the informed consent.Participants will be hospitalized and undergo clinical examinations. Appropriate volume of peripheral blood will be draw (from 66 ml to 360 ml, depend on the body weight and blood routine test), using Ficoll method to centrifuge peripheral blood cell and collected T cells. PD-L1 CAR gene is cloned in a lenti-viral vector that was composed of T cell activation molecules (Cluster of Differentiation 137 (CD137/CD28) and Cluster of Differentiation 3(CD3) zeta intracellular domains) and PD-L1 single-chain variable fragment(scFv) derived from the variable regions of a PD-L1 monoclonal antibody.Then, investigators packaged pseudo-lentiviral particles in human embryonic kidney (293T) cells that will be used to transduce autologous T cells isolated from the patients. CAR positive T lymphocytes will be determined by FACS with florescence labeled goat anti-human F(ab')2. The plasmids, pseudo-lentiviral particles and transduced T cells will be subject to the stipulated tests by a third party. Patients will receive leukodepletion chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide: 250mg/m^2 × 3 days; fludarabine: 25mg/m^2× 3 days). One day later, the chemotherapeutic effects would be assessed. PD-L1 CAR-T cells will be infused on day 0 with 10%, day 3 with 30% and day 7 with 60% (total number is (1-2)×10^6/kg). The patients will be observed closely for any adverse reactions and if happened, given supportive treatments. The patients will be discharged on day 14 and will be followed up for two years according to the study scheme, i.e. once a month for the first three months; once every two months in the first year; since then, once a quarter in the second year. The persistence of PD-L1 CAR-T cells in the circulation will be monitored by fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). If the patients undergo core needle biopsy, the infiltration of CAR positive cells in the tumor tissue will be evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The safety profile and anti-tumor efficacy of the CAR-T cells immunotherapy will be assessed during the whole process based on CTCAE v4.1 and RECIST v1.1.
Reflexion on the therapeutic strategies to implement in patients at the end of life is advancing rapidly in France. However, beyond the choices presented to patients, sometimes even the decision to carry on, to limit or to stop treatments is also questioned. This decision is subjective; it is influenced by the patient's representation system (emotions, beliefs, values, practices, etc). In addition, even though he or she is the focus of the decision, the patient is not alone; other actors, accompanying the patient, play an important role in the final decision making. These actors, namely the doctors and close relatives, are also influenced in their decision making. This coexistence of representation systems may interfere with objective indicators that help in decision making (functional, clinical and biological) or with the knowledge acquired by doctors in their training and may complicate the decision-making process.
The purpose of this study is to test whether 5 fraction stereotactic ablative body radiation (SABR) is safe and improves local control for early state squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. While three fraction SABR is effective for the treatment of early stage non small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) of all histologies, it is not safe for many patients. While four and five fraction SABR is safe, recently published data and our institutional data suggests that local control for early stage squamous cell carcinoma of the lung using the current four or five fraction SABR is suboptimal.
This study will evaluate exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOC's) in the breath of participants with stage 1 lung cancer, their house-mates, and matched controls. The goal of the study is to identify VOC fingerprints that are only detectable in those with stage 1 lung cancer.
