Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung"

AC0010 is a novel, potent, small molecule irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that selectively targets mutant forms of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) while sparing wild-type (WT) EGFR. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety profile of oral AC0010; to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of oral AC0010; to assess the safety and efficacy of AC0010 in previously treated mutant EGFR in NSCLC patients with EGFR T790M mutation.

This phase II randomised, double blind, placebo controlled, multicentre trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of continuous icotinib plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in patients who have progressed after benefiting from previous second or third-line icotinib treatment (more than 6 months) in locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT)-guided radiation therapy works compared to standard radiation therapy in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Using imaging procedures, such as PET and CT scans, to guide the radiation therapy, may help doctors deliver higher doses directly to the tumor and cause less damage to healthy tissue.

The primary objective of the study is to compare overall survival of patients randomized to receiving custirsen in combination with docetaxel (Arm A) with patients randomized to receive docetaxel alone (Arm B).

Background: - Imaging studies like positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) scans are used to detect tumor responses to cancer treatment. However, it may be difficult to detect early response to lung cancer or thymoma treatment with standard PET/CT scans. These scans cannot easily show a difference between remaining cancer cells and inflammation. Researchers want to try a new PET/CT scan tracer that may be able to show the difference between these cells. 18F-Fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) is better at showing which cells are still actively dividing. PET/CT scans with 18F-FLT may help show if tumor cells are responding to early stages of treatment. Objectives: - To see if 18F-FLT is a safe and effective imaging study tracer to show early cancer response to treatment. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who are being treated for lung cancer or thymoma. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood, urine, and tumor tissue samples will be collected. Participants will have two PET/CT scans on separate days before starting chemotherapy. One scan will be with a standard radiotracer. The other will be with the 18F-FLT tracer. About 2 weeks after starting chemotherapy, participants will repeat the two PET/CT scans on separate days. Additional blood samples will be collected at this time.

The purpose of this study is to determine a well-tolerated dose of Carfilzomib in combination with Irinotecan (Phase 1b portion of the study) in subjects with relapsed small and non-small cell lung cancer or other irinotecan-sensitive cancers and to assess the 6 month survival of relapsed small cell lung cancer patients treated with this combination therapy. **The Phase 1b portion of the study is now complete**. Phase 2 portion of the study. The safest, maximally tolerated dose established as established in Phase 1 for Phase 2 is as follows -- Carfilzomib will be provided at 20/36 mg/m2 with Irinotecan dosed at 125 mg/m2. The purpose of the Phase 2 portion of the study is to assess 6 month survival of relapsed small cell lung cancer ins subjects treated with this combination therapy.

The study will be a prospective open-label single-center study in previously treated patients with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Treatment efficacy and safety of the combination of Oshadi D and Oshadi R with Docetaxel will be will be evaluated. Patients will receive Docetaxel in combination with Oshadi D and Oshadi R. Patient will be evaluated throughout the study for safety and tolerance to multiple dose regimens of Oshadi D and Oshadi R. CT or MRI imaging will be performed prior to treatment initiation and at the end of every 3 Docetaxel cycles (12 weeks). In case of disease progression, dose augmentation will be considered or subsequent therapy.

There is as yet no optimal treatment regimen for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene wild type non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) . Icotinib is a new type of small molecule EGFR TKI, developed and patented by Zhejiang BetaPharma Co., Ltd.(Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China, Patent No. WO2003082830). It has the similar anti-tumor activity with gefitinib, erlotinib. Pre-clinical studies showed icotinib could significantly inhibit the EGFR tyrosine kinase activity. Notably, anti-tumor activities were observed in patients with advanced NSCLC. In this study, we will evaluate the efficiency of intermittent high dose of Icotinib in combination with Docetaxel as second-line treatment for NSCLC patients with wild type EGFR. The overall response rate(ORR),progression free survival(PFS) ,overall survival(OS) and health related quality of life(HRQoL) will be monitored.

Millions of patients die of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) every year. There are several methods to treat NSCLC, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and bioimmuotherapy. Recently, hyperthermia therapy has played an important role in neoplasm therapy. It has showed some effect in NSCLC both in animal experiment and clinical practice, yet there is little literature about Whole-body Hyperthermia (WBH) with neoplasm. The investigators decides to develop this randomized contrasted multicenter clinical study to testify to the effect of chemotherapy combined with WBH to treat stage IIIB/IV Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

The primary objectives of this study are to investigate the efficacy and safety of surgery combined with rAd-p53 gene therapy in treatment of advanced Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The study efficacy endpoints include overall survival, progress-free survival, quality of life, and local recurrent rate. The safety endpoint is complications and adverse effects. The study hypothesis: rAd-p53 gene therapy can prolong the overall survival and reduce the local recurrent rate.
