Filter by:This cross-sectional study, utilizing two sets of questionaire designed for patients and physicians respectively, aims at the epidemiology, the clinical features, and the current status of evaluation and management of lung cancer related pain in 20 participating hospitals in Northern China.
Many patients with oncogene-driven non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors experience limited sites of disease progression. For multiple metastases in patients with advanced NSCLC, increased local treatment may benefit to prolong patient survival. This study investigated the benefits of icotinib limited systemic disease progression and continuation of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy,in patients with metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor tyrosine-kinase inhibitors （EGFR-TKIs）, including gefitinib，erlotinib and icotinib demonstrate excellent effect on the treatment of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR mutations. However, patients who are initially sensitive to the drugs eventually become resistance. In this study, the investigators aim to explore the efficacy of beta-elemene, combining with EGFR-TKI in advanced non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR-TKI resistance.
Explore the efficacy and safety of the treatment of Endostar continuous intravenous injection pump combined GP（gemcitabine+cisplatin） scheme for first-line advanced non small cell lung cancer and maintenance treatment.
Malignant tumor has become the leading cause of death in humans, and the number one killer in malignant tumor is the lung cancer. Intensifying environmental pollution comes with rising of the incidence of lung cancer and the high mortality,what's the worst that the 5-year survival rate is only about 15%, accounting for first place in the malignant tumors, Exploiting for novel antitumor technology and products comes to arrest growing attention of the governments and businesses because of the uneffectively curbing of tumor threat to people's life and health on conventional three treatments (surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy). Biological and immunotherapy was voted to one of the ten big breakthrough in 2013 by Science magazine, and considered as a new development direction for cancer treatment in the 21st century. The existing immune treatment mainly includes: adoptive immune therapy, tumor vaccine therapy, immune checkpoint-antibody therapy and other auxiliary therapy, and the adoptive immunotherapy was researched and developeded former in addition the most mature treatment among these therapies. Recently, Dr Hu Hong - Ming's team put forward an innovative cancer treatment strategy: using of autophagy role to capture tumor antigen for preparation of tumor vaccine. In this strategy, the blocking proteasome activity of in vitro cultured tumor cells dealed with Bortezomib (proteasome inhibitors) causes enrichment of short-lived protein (SLiPs) and misfolded proteins (DRiPs) in autophagosome,called DRibbles corpuscle. Tumor vaccine maded from collecting these DRibbles corpuscle preparation as, also known as the DRibble vaccine. At present, clinical research has been carried out about Dribble liver cancer vaccine unit with DC - CIK therapy in liver cancer in the second hospital of Nanjing nearly four years,and more than 300 cases has been completed. Clinical research results show that Dribble vaccine has good security, producing stronger immune response compared with the DC-CIK therapy alone. But it is still no cognization for the efficacy and safety of DC-CIK joint DRibble lung cancer vaccine in China, whether it is better than the current DC - CIK immune therapy, needed for further clinical research and expected to provide a better immune treatment for NSCLC patients.
This is a single arm, single center phase II study of adjuvant pembrolizumab in N2 positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by curative resection. Patients will receive pembrolizumab 200 mg every 3 weeks for up to 24 months. The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of adjuvant pembrolizumab treatment in terms of disease-free survival (DFS; per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as assessed by the investigator). The baseline assessment is part of the screening procedures and should be performed within 0 to 14 days before the start of study drug. The imaging modalities used for RECIST 1.1 assessment will be CT of chest or PET-CT if indicated. Follow-up chest CT for all patients will be assessed every 12 weeks for the first year, every 16 weeks for the second year, every 6 months for the third year, and every year thereafter. In subjects who discontinued study therapy without documented recurrence, every effort should be made to continue monitoring their disease status. If an unscheduled assessment is performed, and the patient has not progressed, every attempt should be made to perform the subsequent assessments at their scheduled visits. RECIST 1.1 scans will be analyzed by the investigator on site; a central review will not be conducted. Following completion or discontinuation of study drug, patients will enter a follow-up period. Once a patient has had objective relapse recorded and has discontinued study drug, the patient will be followed for survival status every 3 months until death, withdrawal of consent or the end of the study. Patients will also be requested to provide tumor samples from diagnostic (obtained before neoadjuvant CCRT) and surgical specimens for exploratory biomarker study. Sample provision is not optional, subject to a specific consent.
This study will compare the quality of CT images acquired with very low-dose radiation and processed with commercially available software vs. PixelShine processed images. It would potentially allow imaging facilities to acquire CT scans using lower doses of radiation without sacrificing clarity of CT images. Acquiring high quality CT images with low-dose radiation has the potential to enhance patient safety and has significant implications in imaging practices.
The study will investigate whether PD-L1 and other immuno-markers will be influenced by osimertinib treatment in advanced epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR）T790M positive advanced NSCLC patients. In addition, we will explore whether PD-L1 and other immuno-markers can predict the safety and efficacy of subsequent use of immune checkpoint inhibitors at the time of PD due to osimertinib resistance.
This study aimed to detect cell free DNA (cfDNA) in the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma, and to determine whether cfDNA can be used for concomitant diagnosis to improve the treatment efficacy and prognosis of patients with brain (meningeal) metastasis by monitoring tumor-related genetic mutations in cfDNA in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid.
EGFR Tyrosine-Kinase Inhibitor monotherapy is widely used in treatment of patients with EGFR mutation-positive Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC), In despite of the benefit of PFS （progression-free survival） , the OS （ overall survival） is limited extended. This study is aim to observe the safety and efficacy of the combination of an anti-angiogenic drug recombinant human-endostatin with EGFR TKI ,to find out a new strategy which may further extend the PFS and OS with a tolerated toxicity.
