Filter by:This phase III trial studies how well a telehealth self-management program works in improving survivorship care and outcomes in stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer or colorectal cancer survivors. Survivor self-management program focuses on coaching patients on follow-up care after cancer treatments. Participating in the program may improve knowledge and confidence about follow-up care, communication with cancer care and primary care doctors, and quality of life after cancer treatment in non-small cell lung cancer or colorectal cancer survivors.
This phase II trial studies how well docetaxel works with or without bintrafusp alfa in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Chemotherapy drugs, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with bintrafusp alfa, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving docetaxel and bintrafusp alfa in combination may work better in treating non small-cell lung cancer compared to docetaxel alone.
This phase II trial studies two questions in patients with stage III NSCLC: 1) does it improve cancer control to add the drug Durvalumab, a type of immunotherapy, earlier in the treatment course; and 2) by intensifying treatment with durvalumab, is it possible to avoid mediastinal radiation to decrease side effects, without decreasing cancer control?
This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of brigatinib and how well it works with bevacizumab in treating patients with ALK-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic) or has come back (recurrent). Brigatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known if brigatinib and bevacizumab will work better in treating patients with ALK-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer.
This trial studies how well [18F]-AraG works in detecting T-cell activation in patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced), who are undergoing PD-1/PD-L1-directed therapy. [18F]-AraG is a "radiotracer" which attaches to immune cells directed at the cancer and shines a light that can be seen using a special camera, called a "positron emission tomography" or "PET" scanner. [18F]-AraG may improve the ability to detect a response of the cancer in the body to immunotherapy.
This trial studies cardiac changes after radiation or chemo-radiation for the treatment of lung or esophageal cancer that has not spread to other places in the body (non-metastatic) or has not come back (non-recurrent). Continuous cardiac monitoring with an implanted device may help to identify cardiac changes that would remain unnoticed, and facilitate the treatment of these early cardiac changes as part of standard care.
This phase III trial studies how well an antibody (durvalumab) with chemotherapy and radiation therapy (chemoradiation) works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This study is being done to see if adding durvalumab to standard chemoradiation followed by additional durvalumab can extend patients life and/or prevent the tumor from coming back compared to the usual approach of chemoradiation alone followed by durvalumab.
This trial studies the side effects of single fraction stereotactic body radiation therapy after surgery in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Standard radiation for lung cancer involves delivering small doses of daily radiation for several weeks. However, this technique has resulted in inferior outcomes compared to surgery and is associated with damage to surrounding normal lung. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. Giving stereotactic body radiation therapy in fewer treatment sessions (single fraction) may kill tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue.
This phase I trial studies the side effects of ipilimumab and nivolumab in combination with radiation therapy, and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Ipilimumab and nivolumab may also help radiation therapy work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the radiation therapy. Giving ipilimumab and nivolumab in combination with radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer compared to standard chemotherapy in combination with radiation therapy.
This phase II single-arm pilot study will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of Optune-Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy as a prophylactic approach to reducing small cell lung cancer (SCLC) that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Optune is a portable battery powered device that produces alternating electrical fields, termed tumor treatment fields ("TTFields") within the human body. These TTFields are applied to the patient by electrically insulated surface transducer arrays, which function to disrupt the rapid cell division of cancer cells.
