Filter by:Before any treatment decisions are made for patients with lung cancer, it is crucial to determine whether the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes in the chest. Traditionally, this is determined by taking biopsy samples from these lymph nodes, using the Endobronchial Ultrasound Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) procedure. Unfortunately, in 40% of the time, the results of EBUS-TBNA are not informative and wrong treatment decisions are made. There is, therefore, a recognized need for a better way to determine whether the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes in the chest. The investigators believe that elastography, a recently discovered imaging technology, can fulfill this need. In this study, the investigators are proposing to determine whether elastography can diagnose cancer in the lymph nodes. Elastography determines the tissue stiffness in the different parts of the lymph node and generates a colour map, where the stiffest part of the lymph node appears blue, and the softest part appears red. It has been proposed that if a lymph node is predominantly blue, then it contains cancer, and if it is predominantly red, then it is benign. To study this, the investigators have designed an experiment where the lymph nodes are imaged by EBUS-Elastography, and the images are subsequently analyzed by a computer algorithm using Artificial Intelligence. The algorithm will be trained to read the images first, and then predict whether these images show cancer in the lymph node. To evaluate the success of the algorithm, the investigators will compare its predictions to the pathology results from the lymph node biopsies or surgical specimens.
This will be a Phase 1, open label, 2-sequence, crossover study to establish the BE of the current commercial formulation (Generation 3.1 talazoparib capsules) to the proposed talazoparib liquid-filled soft gelatin capsule (soft gel capsule) formulation after multiple dosing under fasting conditions in participants with advanced solid tumors. In addition, the effect of food on the PK of the proposed talazoparib soft gel capsule formulation will be evaluated in fixed sequence after the 2 BE assessment periods.
Immunotherapy has made a major progress in Lung cancer.However, challenges such as primary and acquired resistance, small fraction of benefit population and lack of predictive and prognostic biomarkers even exist. The overall objective response rate is lower than 20% in second line-treatment and the progression-free survival (PFS) is also similar to or poorer than that of conventional second-line chemotherapy. Anlotinib is a novel, orally administered, multitarget receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, c-Kit, and other kinases. It functions by inhibiting tumor angiogenesis and proliferative signaling pathways. We would observe and analyze the effectiveness and safety of anlotinib combined with Immune checkpoint inhibitors for advanced NSCLC after muti-line therapy to explore the synergistic effect of anti-angiogenic agents and immunotherapy.
This study is a randomized, multicenter clinical study ,which is designed to compare the efficacy of the safety and efficacy of treatment every 6 weeks in EGFR positive (Non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC) with concurrent Driver gene mutations,who used EGFR-TKI with or without combined chemotherapy,estimated with stable efficacy (CR, PR, and SD) .In this study, subjects will be randomly assigned to the following two groups according to a 1:1 ratio:(A) Standard programme group, EGFR-TKI targeted therapy; (B) controlled programme group, EGFR-TKI targeted therapy combined chemotherapy(pemetrexed plus carboplatin for 4 cycles )
To determine the incidence and risk factors of ethanol-induced symptoms, this multicenter, prospective, observational study is designed to include patients in Korea who are receiving chemotherapy with ethanol-containing docetaxel alone or in combination. Subjects who voluntarily provide written informed consent to provide information for this study and meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be given an enrollment number and will be followed during the observation period to collect study-related data in the Case Report Forms (CRFs) as predefined in the study protocol. Patients' decision to participate (or not) in this study will not affect their treatment (physician's prescriptions or diagnostic/therapeutic decisions).
This is a study evaluating the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of zilovertamab vedotin in participants with metastatic solid tumors including previously treated cancers of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), non-TNBC HER2-negative breast cancer, non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. The study will evaluate a null hypothesis that the objective response rate (ORR) is ≤5% against the alternative hypothesis that it is ≥20%.
Early detection is critical to improve the overall survival of lung cancer. Endogenous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can be derived from many different metabolic pathways. On the other hand, cancer cells have different metabolism patterns compared with normal cells. Thus, detecting VOCs in exhaled breath using highly sensitive mass spectrometry would be a promising approach for lung cancer detection.
A phase 1/2, open-label, study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of APR-246 in combination with pembrolizumab in subjects with solid tumor malignancies. The study will include a safety lead-in portion followed by a phase 2 expansion portion in specific disease groups.
Retrospective study in patients with therapy-naive non small cell lung carcinoma correlating presurgical F18-FDG-PET/CT imaging texture analysis data with postsurgical molecular pathology data and clinical patient outcome. Main aim is to identify pretherapeutic prognostic factors.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TY-9591, with dose-escalation stage and dose-expansion stage.
