Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well bintrafusp alfa before surgery works in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer for which the patient has not received treatment in the past (untreated) and that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Immunotherapy with bintrafusp alfa may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving bintrafusp alfa before surgery may help lower the risk of the cancer coming back after surgery.
The aim of this study is to sample and analyze volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from lung cancer patients and individuals without lung cancer ("healthy" controls). The breath sample analysis will help investigators describe and identify profiles of VOCs found in the breath of patients with lung cancer when compared to normal breath profiles using infrared spectroscopy. This work will help validate early proof of concept results conducted with prototype technology and later stage NSCLC breath samples, and inform future breath testing analysis.
This is a prospective, single center, single-arm clinical trial in 20 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing PD-1/PD-L1-directed therapy. This research is being done to find out if the radioactive compound called [18F]F-AraG is a helpful imaging agent for detecting changes in cancer's anti-tumor immune response (or activation of T-cell) levels for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who will receive a cancer immunotherapy regimen (immunotherapy works by encouraging the body's own immune system to attack the cancer cells).
This trial is a phase I study in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after failure of second line therapy aiming to evaluate safety and efficacy of CC-1, a bispecific antibody (bsAb) with PSMAxCD3 specificity developed within DKTK. CC-1 binds to human prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) on tumor cells of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung (SCC) as well as to tumor vessels of SCC, thereby allowing for a dual mode of anti-cancer action. CC-1 was developed in a novel format which not only prolongs serum half-life but most importantly reduces off-target T cell activation with expected fewer side effects. Together with preemptive IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) blockade using tocilizumab, this allows for application of effective bsAb doses with expected high anticancer activity. The study comprises two phases: The first phase is a dose-escalation phase with concomitant prophylactic application of tocilizumab to evaluate the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) of CC-1. This is followed by a dose-expansion phase (also with prophylactic IL-6R blockade using tocilizumab). A translational research program comprising, among others, analysis of CC-1 half-life and the induced immune response as well as molecular profiling in liquid biopsies will serve to better define the mode of action of CC-1 and to identify biomarkers for further clinical development.
The purpose of this study is to test a new way of treating the most common form of lung cancer. The investigators are testing a combination of radiotherapy with two new forms of immunotherapy. This study is testing the safety and effectiveness of this treatment approach as compared to standard treatment options.
This is a randomized, open label study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant PD-1 antibody plus chemotherapy followed by surgery in resectable stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer.
A study consisting of a dose-escalation phase and a dose-expansion phase to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of venetoclax in combination with atezolizumab, carboplatin, and etoposide.
The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good or bad) may come from a new way of doing radiation therapy for lung cancer. This study is for patients who are not able to get surgery or chemotherapy with their radiation. The way of doing radiation therapy in this trial is called hypofractionated radiation therapy which is a standard approach, but this study allows the actual tumor to get an extra radiation dose while still protecting the organs that are near the tumor.
This phase II trial studies how well docetaxel works with or without bintrafusp alfa in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Chemotherapy drugs, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with bintrafusp alfa, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving docetaxel and bintrafusp alfa in combination may work better in treating non small-cell lung cancer compared to docetaxel alone.
This phase II trial studies two questions in patients with stage III NSCLC: 1) does it improve cancer control to add the drug Durvalumab, a type of immunotherapy, earlier in the treatment course; and 2) by intensifying treatment with durvalumab, is it possible to avoid mediastinal radiation to decrease side effects, without decreasing cancer control?
