Filter by:Aging and cancer are two conditions associated with extensive metabolic changes that can cause malnutrition. However, the clinical features and the underlying mechanisms leading to malnutrition are different in these two cases. We therefore wonder how age can influence the metabolic response to cancer.
The study is being done to determine if non-invasive testing (urine and plasma testing) is as effective as tissue testing in identifying epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation status. EGFR is a type of protein found on the surface of cells in the body. When this protein is mutated and becomes too active, it can lead to cancer growth. T790M is a mutation that develops in response to treatment of the EGFR mutation. Participating patients will have tumor tissue (via cobas test), as well as 2 plasma samples (via cobas and Guardant360 tests) and 1 urine sample (via Trovera test), tested for EGFR T790M mutation status. If the results of the cobas tissue and/or plasma test show that a patient is T790M positive, they will be treated according to standard of care, which may include treatment with osimertinib. Osimertinib is approved for use in the United States for the treatment of EGFR T790M mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Construction of a large cohort of lung cancer patients to evaluate the Prognostic and Predictive Significance of the molecular biomarkers Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), KRAS, Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EML4-ALK), Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) protein and Microsatellite Instability (MSI) in lung cancer: A tissue microarray-based study of 500 cases.
SHR-1210 is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody. This is a randomized,Phase III, multicenter ,open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SHR-1210 with carboplatin and pemetrexed versus carboplatin-pemetrexed in subjects who are chemotherapy naive and have Stage IIIB/IV non-squamous NSCLC. The primary hypothesis is that SHR-1210 combined with carboplatin and pemetrexed prolongs Progression Free Survival (PFS) in per RECIST 1.1 by blinded independent central review (ITT population and population was indicated by high PD-L1 expression) compared to carboplatin and pemetrexed treatment .
A randomized prospective trial to assess whether the use of loco regional anesthesia as adjuvant analgesic therapy is more effective of intravenous analgesia only.
Robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) was widely used in thoracic surgery, the surgical safety and feasibility of RATS lobectomy for NSCLC has been confirmed. However, the oncological long-term outcomes of RATS lobectomy has not been studied by randomized controlled trial, the purpose of this study is to determine whether RATS lobectomy would be as effective as VATS lobectomy on short-term and long-term outcomes.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well platinum doublet chemotherapy and proton beam radiation therapy work in treating patients with stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, paclitaxel, etoposide, cisplatin, and pemetrexed work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving platinum doublet chemotherapy and proton beam radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
The investigators will be retrospectively review the case note of patients registered in the EAP of Nivolumab. A standard anonymous data collection form will be used to collect data and to analyze it. Patients with advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer previously treated and included in the SPANISH expanded access programme of nivolumab.
This study is to explore the potential efficacy and safety of low-dose Apatinib combined with S-1 in patients with advanced lung cancer. Patients with advanced NSCLC will be treated with oral apatinib and S-1 after treatment failure of standard regimen.
This study is a Phase 1-2 open-label dose escalation study of the immuno-activating monoclonal antibody APX005M administered in combination with nivolumab to adult subjects with non-small cell lung cancer or metastatic melanoma. The Phase 1 portion is intended to establish the maximum tolerated dose and the recommended phase 2 dose of APX005M when administered in combination with nivolumab. The Phase 2 portion of the study will evaluate safety and efficacy of the combination.
