This study is designed to help decide whether a CAT scan performed at a very low dose of radiation (Minimum dose CT scan) is better than a Chest X-Ray in detecting recurrence of lung cancer in the chest (after surgery).
Cancer of the lung is treated with surgery, radiation or chemotherapy, depending on the stage or extent of the disease. Some patients are treated with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy before surgery to improve the results of surgery. After these treatments, we do not know whether the residual tumour tissue is still alive or dead, which is why some physicians feel that surgery is required to remove it. This study is designed to assess if computed tomography (CT, CAT-scan) enhanced with intravenous contrast agent (dye) can characterize a lung cancer, and say whether it is alive or dead. The researchers hope that in the future such a contrast-enhanced CAT-scan will make surgery less often necessary or improve the results of chemotherapy and/or radiation given before surgery.
Subjects who qualify will receive single agent lenalidomide once daily on days 1-21 of 28 day cycles. Subjects will continue until disease progression is documented.
Patients are randomized to (arm A) 3 cycles of cisplatin/etoposide, followed by hyperfractionated radiotherapy (hfRT)with concurrent carboplatin and vindesine then surgery and, if no or R1/2-resection, additional hfRT versus (arm B) 3 cycles of cisplatin/etoposide, followed by surgery and then RT. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). With 500 patients evaluable an improvement of median PFS from 10 to 14 months could be detected.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the 1-year treatment failure rate of two sequential chemotherapy regimens: weekly docetaxel plus cisplatin followed by gemcitabine; and gemcitabine plus cisplatin followed by weekly docetaxel。
The purpose of this study is to assess the overall response rate to Iressa as a first-line treatment in chemonaive patients with inoperable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
30-40% of patients with lung cancer will develop bone metastases during the course of their disease, which can lead to pain, decreased mobility and skeletal complications. This study will investigate the effect of zoledronic acid on preventing or delaying the development of bone metastases and the impact on disease progression/survival in patients with stage IIIA and IIIB Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
The purpose of this study is it to determine how well patients with non-small cell lung cancer respond to cetuximab plus vinorelbine. We would also like to determine the safety of cetuximab plus vinorelbine in people 70 years of age or older with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the study drug is effective and safe in the treatment of patients with non small cell lung cancer who have already received one platinum based chemotherapy.
