Filter by:This study is being done to see if people with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) or ovarian cancer benefit from continued treatment with the study drug, RXDX-105.
This is a single center, open-label, nonrandomized, phase 1b, dose-finding study of TRC105 in combination with standard dose bevacizumab and paclitaxel/carboplatin in treatment-naive patients with stage IV non-squamous NSCLC.
This single-arm, open-label, phase II clinical study aims to evaluate the progression-Free Survival (PFS) of the combination of Alectinib plus Bevacizumab in untreated and first and second-line chemotherapy failed subjects with stage IIIB/IV or recurrent disease after receiving radiation therapy or surgical resection. The main question to be answered is: Whether the combination of Alectinib plus Bevacizumab will improve PFS in untreated and previously treated subjects with advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and positive ALK translocation. Participants will be treated with Alectinib and Bevacizumab every three weeks until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient withdrawal of consent.
The primary objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of darbopoetin alfa to placebo in the treatment of anemia in adults with lung cancer receiving multicycle platinum-containing chemotherapy, by assessing the percentage of participants who received red blood cell (RBC) transfusions during weeks 5-12 inclusive.
Survivorship programs have become an integral component of modern cancer care programs. In Canada, there has been tremendous success for survivorship programs for breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer, however lung cancer survivorship programs have not been widely developed. The complexity of the disease, high mortality, short survival times, high cost of surveillance, and patient habits have traditionally been barriers against the success of lung cancer survivorship programs. The investigator proposes a feasibility study to pilot a novel intervention titled Breathe Anew, which will aim to identify and overcome the barriers to the design and implementation of a lung cancer survivorship program. The investigator has assembled a multi-disciplinary team of experts and lung cancer survivors who will develop the Breathe Anew survivorship intervention. The intervention will be vetted using an integrated knowledge translation approach, which will involve members of the target population, primarily patients who previously underwent lung resection, to modify the intervention and ensure acceptability. After Breathe Anew has been designed, it will be tested in a pilot study of 50 patients to ensure its feasibility and determine its cost. The ultimate goal of this feasibility study is to lay the groundwork for a subsequent comparative trial to evaluate the impact of Breathe Anew on patient-important outcomes including health related quality and length of life and postoperative complications.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether dacomitinib after osimertinib is effective in participants with metastatic EGR-mutant lung cancers.
This study aims to test the use of novel CT image analysis techniques to enable a better characterisation of small pulmonary nodules. The study will incorporate solid and predominantly solid nodules of 5-15 mm scanned using a variety of scanner types, imaging protocols and patient populations. The investigators hope that the new image processing techniques will improve the accuracy of lung nodule analysis which will in turn reduce the number of unnecessary investigations for benign nodules and may increase the accuracy of the early diagnosis of lung cancer in malignant nodules. This study aims to test this novel analysis software to subsequently allow validation.
This is a feasibility study examining the feasibility and acceptability of a novel psychotherapy intervention on lung cancer patients who are experiencing stigma.
Lung cancer rates are higher in Yorkshire than the rest of the UK, and this is due to higher rates of smoking. Deaths from lung cancer can be reduced using regular lung scans (screening) and by helping people stop smoking. As well as detecting cancers, scans can also show evidence of damage to lungs (emphysema) and heart arteries (calcification). This study will test whether people can be encouraged to quit smoking by giving them pictures from their own scans showing possible lung and heart damage, along with information about how stopping smoking reduces their risk of cancer and heart attacks.
The aim of the study is to assess whether the value of neutrophil-lymphocyte count ratio from the routine preoperative blood test may predict lung tumors' grading.
