Filter by:This study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of combining Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) with exercise intervention in improving anxiety, depression, sleep quality, and mood regulation in Chinese patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).The control group received conventional psychological nursing care, while the intervention group received a combination of MBSR and exercise therapy. Pre- and post-treatment scores of anxiety, depression, sleep quality, and the BSRS-5 were compared.
In patients with lung carcinoma who receive radiotherapy preoperatively or alternatively curative, high-dose radiotherapy instead of surgery, there are also deformations of the thorax from fraction to fraction. Currently, ART for lung carcinomas is carried out as part of patient care in the radiotherapy clinic. Patients are irradiated during repeated breath-holding manoeuvres in deep inspiration. The breath-holding manoeuvre is practised several times before the daily irradiation. An optical surface detection device is available for this purpose, which is used to compare the body surface in the patient's thorax area on the treatment table with the target surface to be achieved during radiotherapy planning, which took place days before the current fraction. If the target surface is reproducibly achieved, a conebeam CT is taken to determine the current tumour extent and the deformations occurring in comparison to the dose distribution to be applied. For this purpose, the normal tissues heart, lung and tracheal tree are automatically contoured by the Ethos therapy system in the cone-beam CT. A specialist physician and a physicist are present at the Ethos device during this process. These organ contours are used to determine the extent of the current target volume and the adaptive radiotherapy plan is adjusted to the new target volume. If the current tumour extent is not sufficiently covered by the initial radiotherapy plan planned for the series with its planned tolerances, or if the surrounding normal tissue is exposed to too much radiation, then the online adaptive radiotherapy plan for the current treatment is selected by the specialist. Otherwise, the initial radiotherapy plan is used by the planning CT as for IGRT. The aim of this study is to treat patients in ART readiness on the Ethos therapy device over 10 radiotherapy fractions. The dose distribution is always compared with the adaptive and the initial series plan on the anatomy of the day by the specialist and medical physics expert. The ART plan is applied when dosimetric advantages are present. The aim of this study is to prospectively analyse in how many patients safety margins around the clinical target volume can be reduced with ART compared to IGRT. The percentage of patients who benefit from ART will be determined prospectively. The criterion for a relevant benefit from ART is the effective uniform dose (EUD) in the target volume with the accumulated dose distribution across the first 7 fractions. If the EUD is below 95% of the target dose with IGRT and above 95% of the target dose with ART, then an advantage is determined with ART. Patients with a benefit from ART receive ART for the further fractions of the series, while the others continue to be treated with IGRT.
This is a pilot study collecting data on the diversity and composition of gut microbiomes in subjects with advanced/metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) while receiving treatment for NSCLC.
This is a prospective single-center, open-label, phase II study evaluating the efficacy of sintilimab plus anlotinib as a neoadjuvant regimen in the treatment of IB-IIIB resectable non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to establish the safety, toxicity, and tolerability of Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) in combination with pembrolizumab in advanced/metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Researchers also want to investigate how effective DFMO is at treating patients with advanced/ metastatic NSCLC.
Psychological distress is a multi-factorial experience of a psychological, social, spiritual, and/or physical nature that may interfere with one's ability to cope effectively with cancer, physical symptoms and treatment. Psychological distress is common and affects the efficacy and prognosis of patients with lung cancer. The systematic anti-tumor therapy may effectively relieve psychological distress including anxiety, depression, and fatigue in patients with advanced lung cancer, the relief of the psychological distress can in turn improve the therapeutic effect. In summary, this study is to explore the associations of (dynamic) psychological stress with the efficacy and survival of anti-tumor therapy including immunotherapy and targeted therapy for advanced lung cancer patients.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low-dose radiotherapy (LDRT) combined with sugemalimab, olaparib, chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of SLFN-11 positive extensive stage small cell lung cancer.
Lung cancer is a malignant tumor with the highest incidence and mortality rate of cancer patients worldwide. Traditional treatments for lung cancer include surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, etc. Although the growth and spread of the tumor can be controlled to a certain extent, the cure rate for patients with progressive stage is still low and the prognosis is poor. Neoadjuvant therapy intends to use chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy to reduce the size and load of the tumor before surgery, to improve the surgical resection rate and therapeutic effect. 1. Primary research objective: to explore the therapeutic efficacy of patients with different characteristics under different neoadjuvant therapeutic regimens. 2. Secondary objectives To investigate the strengths and weaknesses of different neoadjuvant regimens in real-world clinical practice, and to investigate the long-term outcomes of patients treated with different regimens.
This study, known as LUNAR-2, aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of using TTFields, delivered by the NovoTTF-200T device, concomitantly administered with pembrolizumab and platinum-based chemotherapy for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The primary goals of the study are to assess overall survival and progression-free survival. Secondary objectives include analyzing outcomes based on the specific histology (subtype) of the lung cancer.
The goal of this clinical trail is to compare the effects of preoperative exercise training of different intensities on short-term cardiorespiratory function and postoperative outcomes in patients scheduled for lung resections.
