Filter by:To determine if ZD6474 a new investigational drug, is effective in treating Non Small Lung Cancer and if so, how it compares with another type of anti cancer therapy chemotherapy, Erlotinib
The primary objective is to estimate the time to progressive disease for patients who receive LY573636-sodium (hereafter referred to as LY573636) after two previous treatments for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will receive an intravenous infusion of study drug once every 21 days. Computed tomography (CT)-scans will be done before the first dose and then after every other treatment.
This trial is studying two different schedules of docetaxel and bortezomib to compare how well they work in treating patients with progressive or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving docetaxel together with bortezomib may kill more tumor cells
The purpose of this study was to see how well three investigational drugs worked together in preventing progression of the disease. This study provided a new combination of chemotherapy drugs - docetaxel and oxaliplatin - as first line therapy in the treatment of lung cancer. The therapy included bevacizumab that may prevent or slow down the blood supply to the tumor and may also prevent tumor growth. The three investigational drugs are United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved.
The main aim is to determine, in patients with locoregional, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated by definitive radiotherapy, the influence on survival of the volume of primary tumour, as measured from CT imaging, after adjusting for the effect of the current TNM staging system and other known prognostic factors (especially ECOG performance and weight loss).
A phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of the combination of Pemetrexed and Carboplatin in elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer
The purpose of this randomized phase II trial is to determine the clinical feasibility - in terms of patients without dose limiting toxicities or premature treatment withdrawal or death - of the combination of Cisplatin and Pemetrexed and of the combination of Cisplatin and Vinorelbine. The combination of Cisplatin / Pemetrexed is assumed to be distinctly less toxic than Vinorelbine / Cisplatin.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to find out whether or not the combination of NOV-002 with chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) is better at improving overall survival time when compared to chemotherapy alone in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Earlier clinical trials in NSCLC showed that patients treated with NOV-002 in combination with chemotherapy had a better response (their tumors got smaller in one United States Phase 1/2 trial) than patients who received chemotherapy alone; and in two Phase 2 trials done in Russian patients, at the end of one year, patients treated with NOV-002 with chemotherapy had a better survival rate than patients who did not receive NOV-002 with their chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to establish the objective response rate (complete response + partial response), following treatment with Alimta plus VELCADE, Alimta alone, or VELCADE alone in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have failed prior preventative therapy for Stage IIIb/IV NSCLC. The Alimta alone treatment group will be used as the control. The VELCADE single-agent treatment group will be used to determine if VELCADE administered weekly can demonstrate response rates.
The primary objective of this study will be to determine the progression free survival of patients with stage IIIb/IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with dual agent monoclonal antibody therapy consisting of cetuximab and bevacizumab in combination with two different regimens of paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy.
