Filter by:This study evaluates whether EC treatment is effective in delaying the progression of high-grade lung lesion(s) to invasive lung cancer. Participants will be randomised to receive either electrocautery (EC) treatment with bronchoscopy surveillance (=intervention), or bronchoscopy surveillance alone (=control) in a 2:1 ratio.
This is a phase III , randomized, double-blinded, multicenter clinical study to compare efficacy and safety of AK105 (Anti-PD1 antibody) combined with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed vs Placebo combined with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed as first-line therapy in patients with EGFR and ALK wild type metastatic nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer.
The investigators will undertake a multi-centre, randomized controlled trial to implement and evaluate a proactive model of care (SMARTCare) during active cancer treatment that incorporates self-management support (SMS). Patients allocated to the control arm will receive care from ambulatory clinic nurses trained in SMS. Patients allocated to the intervention arm will will receive care from ambulatory clinic nurses trained in SMS, in addition to being given access to a web-based, self-management education program and nurse-led health coaching during the first four months following the first systemic therapy administration.
The main purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and efficacy in participants treated with concomitant chemoradiation therapy (cCRT) plus M7824 followed by M7824 compared to cCRT plus placebo followed by durvalumab.
This is a phase II, open label, multicenter study in subjects with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess if there is decrease in cough during flexible bronchoscopy and endobronchial ultrasound when different modes of lidocaine administration are used. The modes of administration being evaluated are topical, nebulized and atomized.
In the FIND trial, Non Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC) patients with Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR) genetic alteration will be treated with the selective FGFR1-4 inhibitor erdafitinib. Archival samples, fresh frozen tumor samples and blood for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) will be collected before treatment. Patients will be treated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In case of progression, fresh frozen tumor biopsies and ctDNA analyses will be performed to assess resistance mechanisms. The primary objective of the trial is to analyze the efficacy of erdafitinib in NSCLC patients with FGFR genetic alterations. NSCLC patient number will be based on a statistical hypothesis aiming at increasing the response rate comparing to chemotherapy/immunotherapy after standard treatment.
The purpose of this study is to treat participants with the combination of durvalumab (the study drug) and proton beam therapy. Proton beam therapy is a type of radiotherapy (RT) with a unique characteristic where the proton stops at a specific depth according to its energy. This may be advantageous in treating lung cancer because it allows for a sufficient tumor dose that may improve local control and survival while sparing normal organs at risk, such as the heart, lung, and spinal cord.
The objective of this project is to compare the effect of two widely implemented cancer diets, differing drastically in macronutrient content, on biomarkers of inflammation, compared to a control diet. Diet A will be a low-carbohydrate, high-fat ketogenic-type diet with an emphasis on whole foods. By limiting carbohydrate, the diet will have an extremely low glycemic load, thereby minimizing diurnal glucose and insulin excursions. Diet B will be a low-fat, high-carbohydrate whole foods plant-based diet. It will include only fiber-rich, low-glycemic index sources of carbohydrates and largely eliminate animal protein, which will minimize rapid spikes in blood glucose and insulin and the production of IGF-1. This diet is also hypothesized to improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, which should further help minimize diurnal glycemic and insulinemic excursions. Both diets will be compared to a control diet based on the 2015 USDA Dietary Guidelines for Americans (Diet C) in patients suffering from advanced lung cancer as they are completing medical therapy. The overarching hypothesis motivating this work is that a nutrient dense diet that minimizes known factors involved in tumor growth and progression may improve the effectiveness of therapy. Our specific hypothesis is that participants following either of the experimental diets, A or B, will experience a reduction in biomarkers of insulin resistance and chronic inflammation, both of which are known risk factors for progression in lung cancer, and a greater median time to progression compared to those on the control diet (Diet C).
A recent investigation showed that a substantial proportion of patients with SQCLC (46%) exhibit tumor overexpression of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and are potentially sensitive to FGFR-targeting treatment. Rogaratinib is a novel pan-FGFR inhibitor which showed strong anti-tumor efficacy in pre-clinical models as a single agent in FGFR pathway-addicted tumor models. SQCLC patients overexpressing tumor FGFR mRNA, who will be included into this clinical trial, do not have currently any alternative systemic treatment with a proven and clinically reasonable benefit. The objective of the trial is to determine clinical activity and safety of rogaratinib in patients with advanced SQCLC overexpressing tumor FGFR1-3 mRNA.
