Filter by:This proposed study aims to examine the effect of classical aerobic exercise or tai-chi on 1-year survival rate of lung cancer patients compared to usual care, as a primary outcome of this study. To understand the hypothesized outcomes of improved survival of lung cancer patients through physical exercise or tai-chi practice intervention, we will examine the changes in some subjective psychosocial outcomes and objective biomarkers that may be associated with the survival of cancer patients, as the secondary outcome of this study. Those biomarkers will be in following aspects: 1.) circadian rhythm, 2.) cardio-respiratory fitness, and 3.) immune functions. Secondary outcome measures include: quality of life, psychological distress, quality of sleep, fatigue, level of physical activity, circadian rhythms, cardio-respiratory fitness, physical functioning tests and immune function. The pilot study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the trial so that the main study will have a higher chance of success.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate patient-reported outcomes during and after concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally-advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be randomized to a standard 6-week radiotherapy course or a 4-week radiotherapy course using dose-painting based on pre-treatment PET findings.
The purpose of this study is to assess clinical utility of combined circulating tumor cell (CTC) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the diagnosis of primary lung cancer.
There are 13.7 million Americans currently living with a history of cancer. With continued improvements in cancer treatment and increasing life expectancy, this number is expected to reach nearly 18 million within the next decade. The care of these cancer patients, including surveillance during the post-treatment survivorship phase, is an increasingly important major health care concern and expenditure. As the fourth leading diagnosis among cancer survivors, lung cancer is emerging as a chronic problem that currently affects over 450,000 Americans and is expected to grow by nearly 20% by 2022. Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the United States. Of the estimated 182,550 patients newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) this year, approximately 35% will present with localized disease and be eligible for curative resection. For patients with limited NSCLC, surgical resection is the most effective method of controlling the primary tumor and provides the best opportunity for cure. A recent analysis by this group demonstrated that the number of lung cancer resections has increased over the past decade, with over 45,000 lung cancer resections performed annually in the US. This research will address a critical gap in knowledge because the optimal approach to post-treatment surveillance following lung cancer resection is unknown. The intensity of recommended surveillance visits ranges from every 3 months during the first two years to an annual visit. Imaging modalities range from CT scans to chest radiographs to no routine imaging for asymptomatic patients. The reason for these significant differences is a lack of quality data on lung cancer surveillance and clinical guidelines based largely on small retrospective analyses and expert opinion. The National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) provides real world national lung cancer resection and surveillance data on over 70% of newly diagnosed lung cancers from more than 1,500 institutions. This study will compare the effectiveness of the three most common surveillance intensities (CT scans every 3 months vs. 6 months vs. annually) on the stakeholder selected outcome of survival. All analyses will be risk adjusted for differences in patient characteristics at baseline, including tumor characteristics, patient age, comorbid disease, and other potential confounders. Analyses will also be adjusted for the competing risk of death.
This Phase 2 is a randomized study in advanced Non-Small Cell lung cancer patients to evaluate safety and efficacy of aerosolized BIO-11006 in conjunction with chemotherapy.
AZD9291 Early Access Program (EAP) was available in Taiwan during October 2015 to September 2016, a time period before the approval of AZD9291, to supply the unlicensed AZD9291 for the NSCLC patients who received at least one prior EGFR TKI therapy. At the end of September 2016, more than 450 patients have been under AZD9291 treatment through the EAP. This observational study aims to evaluate the clinical benefit of AZD9291 treatment for these patients who were in the EAP
This was a study to investigate the potential clinical benefit of G1T38 as an oral therapy in combination with osimertinib in patients with EGFR mutation-positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. The study was an open-label design, planned to consist of 2 parts: a safety, pharmacokinetic, and dose-finding portion (Part 1), and a randomized portion (Part 2). Both parts were to include 3 study phases: Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and Survival Follow-up Phase. The Treatment Phase began on the day of first dose with study treatment and completes at the Post-Treatment Visit. Approximately, 144 patients were planned to be enrolled in the study.
To demonstrate that the specificity of the Hummingbird microRNA profile for the diagnosis of lung cancer in a cohort of patients who meet current eligibility criteria for lung cancer screening in the U.S. is superior to the specificity of LDCT.
This is a phase 1 open label multicentre study of D-0316 administered orally in patients with advanced NSCLC who have progressed following prior therapy with an EGFR-TKI (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor agent). This is the first time this drug has ever been tested in patients, and so it will help to understand safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumour activity of ascending doses of D-0316.
The trial was designed to compare the effectiveness of radical resections of lung cancer plus adjuvant chemotherapies and perioperative chemotherapies in the patients with N2 non-small cell lung cancer
