NCT ID: NCT06265350 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Cryoablation Combined With Cardonilizumab and Bevacizumab in Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Pulmonary Metastases

Start date: February 2, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cryoablation combined with Cardonilizumab and Bevacizumab in hepatocellular carcinoma with pulmonary metastases.

NCT ID: NCT03864874 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Pulmonary Metastases

Use of Thoracoscopic Intraoperative Lung Ultrasound to Identify Pulmonary Metastases in Patients Submitted to Pulmonary Metastasectomy With Radical Intent.

VATS-US1
Start date: January 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Experience drawn from many scientific articles showed that many patients who develop a limited pattern of pulmonary metastases after treatment of a primary tumor may benefit from surgical resection of the lung deposits. Pulmonary metastasectomy with curative intent is widely performed with the aim of prolonging life and, in some cases, being curative. Usually the surgical strategy is defined based on analysis of radiological investigations, performed during a follow-up program after resection of a tumor. However, many studies showed that the actual sensitivity of this examinations, namely computed tomography (CT) and positron-emission tomography (PET) is far from being 100% and finding further unexpected nodules at operation with lung manual palpation is not uncommon. Many surgeons perform pulmonary metastasectomy with a minimally invasive approach, in view of a less morbid and more cosmetic approach, but lung palpation is considerably hampered and surgical radicality might be impaired. With this study the investigators want to assess the ability of lung ultrasonography performed via a key-hole access (thoracoscopy, VATS) in detecting lung nodules compared with the standard practice represented by open thoracotomy, that is a wider incision that allows manual exploration of the organ. Therefore, every patient enrolled will undergo a double phase surgical approach: a first phase by thoracoscopy where a thorough lung ultrasonography will be performed and number and position of lung nodules will be annotated, and a second phase by open thoracotomy where lung is palpated and suspicious nodules will be removed. The incisions used for the first phase will be extended for the second, rendering any other procedure for the execution of lung ultrasonography unnecessary. Should this study demonstrate a non-inferiority of lung ultrasonography in detecting lung nodules compared with manual palpation of the lung, patients should be offered a less invasive approach for treatment of their condition with no concerns regarding a potential lower therapeutic effect.

NCT ID: NCT02811523 Recruiting - Soft Tissue Sarcoma Clinical Trials

In Vivo Lung Perfusion for Pulmonary Metastases of Sarcoma

Start date: February 2016
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Sarcoma which has spread to the lungs is most often treated with surgery. Even with surgery, most patients will not be cured and will die from their disease, probably because of small cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, but cannot be seen or detected. It is for this reason that we are looking for a better treatment. Giving chemotherapy after surgery is generally not recommended because it has significant side effects and no benefit has been proven. This study is investigating a new technique for delivering chemotherapy directly into the lungs at the time of surgery. Delivering chemotherapy directly to the lungs could potentially kill any microscopic cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, while sparing other major organs in the body from the side effects of chemotherapy. This technique is called In Vivo Lung Perfusion (IVLP). This is a Phase I, non-randomized, dose escalation study that will act as a pilot study for a larger prospective, multicenter, controlled clinical trial. Patients who have bilateral disease will have one lung undergo IVLP and the other lung will remain untreated with the IVLP (the other lung will be treated as current standard of care - either surgery or radiation) as a control lung. The patients will undergo a posterolateral thoracotomy. Lung metastases will be identified by visualization or palpation. After surgical isolation of the lung by proximal control of pulmonary artery and veins, IVLP will be initiated. After 3 hours of IVLP, the lung metastases will be removed in the usual fashion. Patients will be cared for post-surgery according to institutional standards. The patients will be followed for up to 2 years. The primary endpoint is safety. Secondary endpoints include additional safety endpoints and efficacy.

NCT ID: NCT01216371 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Renal Cell Carcinoma

Resection of Pulmonary Metastasis in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma +/-Adjuvant Sunitinib Therapy (SMAT)

SMAT
Start date: October 2010
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The aim ist to identify biomarkers in the blood, to indicate early response or early treatment resistance.

NCT ID: NCT01105182 Recruiting - NSCLC Clinical Trials

Radiofrequency Ablation Combined With Chemotherapy for Pulmonary Tumors

FACPT
Start date: November 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to assess short and long term outcomes after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) combined with chemotherapy for pulmonary malignancies in patients who are not candidates for surgical resection. This study will evaluate the efficacy of RFA combined with chemotherapy for the treatment of lung tumors by assessing its impact on local tumor control, progression free survival, overall survival, dyspnea score and quality of life (QOL).
