Filter by:The purpose of this trial is to characterize the safety and toxicity of DKN-01 by determining a maximum-tolerated dose and associated dose limiting toxicity. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic response in patients with cancer. To characterize the pharmacokinetic parameters of DKN-01 in cancer patients who are intolerant to standard/approved therapies.
- The study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of Nivolumab (BMS-936558) when combined with three platinum-based doublet chemotherapy regimens (Cisplatin/Gemcitabine; Cisplatin/Pemetrexed; and Carboplatin/Paclitaxel) in subjects with NSCLC. - The study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of Nivolumab as maintenance therapy in combination with Bevacizumab/Avastin that will be given after at least 4 cycles of platinum doublet chemotherapy. - The study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of Nivolumab in combination with Erlotinib among epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation positive non-squamous NSCLC subjects and as monotherapy in subjects with NSCLC. - The study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of Nivolumab in combination with Ipilimumab in subjects with squamous and non-squamous NSCLC. - The study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of Nivolumab as switch maintenance therapy in subjects with squamous and non-squamous NSCLC. - The study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of Nivolumab as monotherapy among subjects with untreated, asymptomatic brain metastases and no evidence of cerebral edema.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of the MM-121 plus cetuximab and the MM-121 plus cetuximab plus irinotecan combination.
Both pemetrexed and docetaxel have been reported to have similar activity against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who failed previous chemotherapy in a large randomized phase III study. However, no study showed different toxicity and efficacy profiles within individual patients. Present phase II randomized clinical trial is designed to answer these questions, with addition of information about whether or not sequential therapy can prolong disease-free and overall survival.
The investigators performed a multi-center, randomized, controlled, double-blind, prospective study on evaluating effect of chemotherapy combined with or without integrated TCM on quality of life (QOL) of postoperative Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients. The investigators plan to involve 600 cases for observation in 3 years (300 cases for each group), expecting that QOL of postoperative NSCLC patients can be improved by integrated TCM combined with chemotherapy compared to that by chemotherapy alone.
Study IPI-504-15 is a Phase 1b/2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of retaspimycin HCl (IPI-504) plus everolimus in patients with KRAS mutant Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
Platinum-based combination chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine-carboplatin, is one of the standard first-line therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) have clinical efficacy, as compared with the best supportive care or standard chemotherapy, when given as second-line or third-line therapy for advanced NSCLC. Treatment with EGFR-TKI is most effective in female, never-smoker, or patients with adenocarcinoma, and patients of Asian origin. In these populations, such treatment is associated with favorable objective response rates, progression-free survival, and overall survival. These populations also have a relatively high incidence of somatic mutations in the region of the EGFR gene that encodes the tyrosine kinase domain. The recent study(IPASS) by Tony S. Mok showed gefitinib was superior to carboplatin-paclitaxel as an initial treatment for pulmonary adenocarcinoma among nonsmokers or former light smokers in East Asia . In the subgroup of 261 patients who were positive for the EGFR gene mutation, PFS was significantly longer among those who received gefitinib than among those who received carboplatin-paclitaxel(HR= 0.48,P<0.001), whereas in the subgroup of 176 patients who were negative for the mutation, PFS was significantly longer among those who received carboplatin-paclitaxel(HR=2.85,P<0.001). Gefitinib treatment was well tolerated, with lower in hematologic toxicity, and no treatment-related interstitial lung disease.In this study(IPASS), only patients with a mutation of the EGFR gene in the tumor could get benefit from gefitinib as first line treatment. Tony S. Mok and his colleague also found that intercalating and maintenance administration of erlotinib(another EGFR-TKI)following gemcitabine/platinum chemotherapy as first line therapy led to a significant improvement in PFS .
It is well known that substantial interindividual variability of CYP3A4/1A2-phenotype activity is an important contributor to individual differences in the sensitivity to the frequently used tyrosine kinase inhibitors sunitinib and erlotinib. This study tests the potential for CYP-phenotyping to predict individual pharmacology and derive dosing algorithms for more tailored treatment of these drugs.
The purpose of this study is to compare two types of care - standard oncology care and standard oncology care with early palliative care (started soon after diagnosis) to see which is better for improving the experience of patients and families with advanced lung and non-colorectal GI cancer. The study will use questionnaires to measure patients' and caregivers' quality of life, mood, coping and understanding of their illness.
The administration of Anamorelin HCl in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer-Cachexia (NSCLC-C) is expected to increase appetite, lean body mass, weight gain, and muscle strength.
