Filter by:This is a study of carboplatin and paclitaxel or nano particle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) with or without pembrolizumab (MK-3475, KEYTRUDA®) in adults with first line metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary hypotheses are that treatment with pembrolizumab prolongs: 1) Progression-free Survival (PFS) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as assessed by a blinded central imaging vendor compared to placebo, and 2) Overall Survival (OS). After analysis of interim results was conducted, the protocol was amended (Amendment 5) to allow participants the option to discontinue placebo in the control arm and to switch to pembrolizumab in the event of documented progressive disease as assessed by central review.
This is a two center, single arm, investigator sponsored trial (IST) with the PET tracer 89Zr-pembrolizumab to evaluate in vivo whole body distribution of 89Zr-Pembrolizumab in a registered indication: locally advanced metastatic melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer before Pembrolizumab treatment.
This study is designed to establish biosimilarity of SB8, a proposed biosimilar product of bevacizumab, to EU-sourced bevacizumab, in patients with metastatic or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
A randomized phase II study of palliative radiation of advanced central lung tumors with intentional avoidance of the esophagus. Patients will be randomized between standard of care palliative thoracic radiation and esophageal-sparing intensity-modulated radiation therapy (ES-IMRT) in a 1:1 ratio. Radiotherapy will be administered as soon as possible following randomization and subjects will be followed for 1 year after completion of their radiation therapy. The primary endpoint is esophageal quality of life as measured by the Esophageal Cancer Subscore (ECS) of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Esophagus (FACT-E).
The program will provide early access to the investigational drug gilotrif in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have failed at least 6 months on erlotinib or gefitinib. The Compassionate Use Programme will also provide additional safety information on gilotrif use.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of brigatinib to that of crizotinib in ALK+ locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) participants naive to ALK inhibitors, as evidenced by progression-free survival (PFS).
Five papers showed a lower N1 nodal upstaging with video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) compared to open surgery in patients with cStage-I NSCLC . This finding questions the oncologic quality of minimal invasive lung cancer surgery, especially the quality of hilar and intrapulmonary lymh node dissection. However, these retrospective studies did not include analysis of central tumor location, although central tumors have a reported higher chance of N1 upstaging . Possibly, this creates a selection bias as surgeons might select central lesions deliberately for open surgery in line with initial VATS feasibility reports
The subjects who take part in this clinical research study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has been previously treated with other drugs. If they join this study, they would receive ramucirumab (Cyramza ®) in combination with nab-paclitaxel (Abraxane®). Ramucirumab given with nab-paclitaxel is considered an investigational drug combination to use in this type of cancer because giving these two drugs together has not been approved by any regulatory authority like the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for NSCLC cancer. Ramucirumab works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells. Nab-Paclitaxel works by blocking the ability of cancer cells to break down the internal 'skeleton' that allows them to divide and multiply. With the skeleton still in place, the cells cannot divide and they eventually die.
Quisinostat besides its own efficacy, which can potentially lead to better results of polychemotherapy and increase the mean time to progression, it may be demonstrated that Quisinostat leads to sustained tumor sensitivity to platinum drugs. In this study safety and tolerability of multiple administrations of Quisinostat in doses ranging from 8 mg to 12 mg combined with standard backbone chemotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (second line) and ovarian cancer (second and subsequent lines) will be investigated.
