Filter by:Radiotherapy (RT) treatment to the chest is a standard way of trying to decrease symptoms like cough or shortness of breath. Before any RT can be delivered, it must be planned, either using conventional x-rays ("fluoroscopy") or using computer tomography ("CT") scanning. This study is being done because the investigators do not know which of these two common ways of RT planning is better for balancing both treating the cancer and decreasing side effects.
This was a Phase II, open-label, single-arm, single-stage, multicenter trial in patients with relapsed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with the objective of assessing the activity of the combination of erlotinib and pertuzumab on the basis of the endpoint of FDG-PET response rate.
This is a Phase II, double-blind, randomized, multicenter trial designed to preliminarily evaluate the activity and safety of treatment with MetMAb + erlotinib versus erlotinib + placebo in second- and third-line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Up to 180 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment arms.
This is a pilot single institution study of DRibble vaccination + GM-CSF in patients with stage IIIB or IV NSCLC who have undergone 0-1 chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate immune responses induced by autologous DRibble vaccine in vivo and in vitro and against autologous and allogeneic lung cancer cells.
This is an open label trial for patients currently enrolled in other perifosine trials.
Study Rationale: There is increasing evidence that erlotinib improves overall survival in selected patients with stage IIIB-IV NSCLC. Furthermore, pre-clinical and phase II studies have shown a potential for synergism between erlotinib and docetaxel. This study will further evaluate the effects of combination treatment on overall survival in selected NSCLC patient population. Based on recent published data, the treatment cycle in this study will be 22 days with two infusions (Day 1 and Day 8 of each cycle). This is different from the standard therapy care of 28-day cycle (three infusions on Days 1, 8 and 15). The shorter 22-day cycle was shown to be just as effective as the 28-day cycle and is expected to increase subject compliance and decrease chemotherapy-induced toxicity. Study Objectives: The primary objective is to demonstrate superiority in progression-free-survival, when erlotinib is added to docetaxel. The secondary objectives are to determine: - Overall survival (defined as the time period from the start of first-line therapy to death) - Time to treatment failure or disease progression (defined as the time period from the start of first-line therapy to investigator assessed disease progression) - Tumor response rate and duration - Safety profile - Quality of Life improvement - microRNA profile (assessed from human lung biopsy and/or cytology samples) at screening for prognostic purposes
The purpose of this study is to determined the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and anti-tumor effect of E7080 administered continually twice daily in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel to patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the response of lung tumors to radiation therapy. This study will be using a type of radiation therapy called tomotherapy. Tomotherapy is a relatively new kind of therapy which is able to focus a large amount of radiation to a small area with relatively less radiation to the surrounding non-cancerous part of the organ. This study is being done to find out if this technique is able to control the cancer better or not than the standard radiation and also to study its safety.
This study was designed to test the addition of DMXAA (now known as ASA404) to carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with NSCLC.
The purpose of this study is to determine the highest dose of ixabepilone that can be given safely with cisplatin without causing severe or life-threatening side effects and for some patients with non-small cell lung cancer, the effects (good or bad) on your cancer will also be studied
