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

The study aims to identify specific or potential reasons that prolong the length of hospital stay after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy. The hypothesis is that patients who are still in hospital after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy are associated with prolonged air leak, infection, pneumonia, atrial fibrillation or other complications or social factors.

This is a retrospective, multicenter and observational study of Osimertinib monotherapy treatment in Subjects with advanced or metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) EGFR-T790M mutation-positive who have received the treatment within the Special Use Medication Program (SUMP) in Spain.

Search correlation between texture features in CT-PET 18 FDG and overexpression of PDL1 in non-small cell lung carcinomas during the inital staging. The hypothesis is that overexpression of PDL1is correlated with at least one texture feature among those selected. 84 CT-PET 18 FDG at the initial staging of a non small cell lung carcinoma (adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma), whose the biopsed site was the primitive site or the drainage lymphadenopathy, without previous treatment, were recruited and analyzed by a software allowing to estimate texture features.

The study aims include: Exploring potential predictive molecular profiles to immunotherapy/chemotherapy Investigating the role of circulating tumor DNA as a dynamic biomarker during immunotherapy/chemotherapy Identifying possible resistance mechanisms to immunotherapy/chemotherapy Materials and methods: Approximately 150 patients diagnosed with metastatic NSCLC assigned for immunotherapy or chemotherapy will be candidates for inclusion during a 1-2 years period. A comprehensive molecular profiling will be made from the diagnostic biopsy. Before every treatment-cycle a blood sample will be taken to quantify ctDNA. At time of progressive disease during/after first line treatment, patients will be asked to participate in a new biopsy and a comprehensive molecular profiling will be performed. The tissue and blood samples collected will be stored in a biobank. Clinical data will be collected to perform a comprehensive database. Analysis: Potentially predictive molecular profiles for immunotherapy/chemotherapy will be found by comparison of treatment outcome for patients with specific molecular characteristics. Through quantification of ctDNA during treatment and upon progression, the role of ctDNA as a dynamic biomarker will be further strengthened. Differences in molecular profiles pre- and post-treatment may reveal resistance mechanisms to treatment. Molecular profiling on progression can be valuable in second-line treatment guidance.

Response evaluation with FDG-PET and free circulating DNA in patients with inoperable lung cancer of non small cell type during first treatment with chemotherapy or immunotherapy.

Observational, retrospective cohort study that will include patients diagnosed with NSCLC and ALK rearrangement between January 2015 and December 2020.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Despite the evolution of medical and multimodal treatments, surgical treatment remains the curative management in the localized cancer. Historically, in central lung tumors, pneumonectomy was the gold standard. Currently, bronchial sleeve lobectomy is recommended as first-line treatment over pneumonectomy when complete resection is possible (Grade 2C). In the case of pulmonary artery invasion, lobectomy with arterial resection and reconstruction is now an accepted option for central localized cancer. Despite surgical challenge, arterial sleeve lobectomy is oncologically comparable with pneumonectomy while avoiding the high morbi-mortality. Indeed, this surgery has shown better results than pneumonectomy in terms of overall survival, post-operative mortality, and quality of life. Initially performed in patients with impaired cardio-pulmonary reserves, this parenchymal sparing procedure can be realised in all patients, when anatomical conditions allow a complete resection. In the literature, no study has yet specifically investigated postoperative respiratory function after arterial sleeve lobectomy. The investigators designed a retrospective monocentric study at the University Hospital of Montpellier on 81 lobectomies with pulmonary artery sleeve resection for lung cancer, from January 2001 to December 2020.

This is a multicenter, observational study involving a retrospective collection of data. A total of potential 16 key performance indicators (KPIs) had been developed from a panel of experts (clinicians, IT experts, etc..) to investigate the appropriateness of care in NSCLC patients, with a special focus on the use of immunotherapy. The eligible population and data will be gathered retrospectively using an algorithm. Administrative databases will be used as unique resource: to identify target population and to collect patient's data with which measure KPIs.

CERTIM is a cohort created in July 2015 to set up a multidisciplinary follow-up of cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. From the CERTIM cohort, we conducted a longitudinal, prospective, observational study (ELY) in two tertiary university centers (Cochin hospital and European Georges Pompidou Hospital), which included patients between August 2016 and October 2019 and ended follow-up in April 2020. Patients were treated with nivolumab, at a dose of 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks, or pembrolizumab, at a dose of 2mg/kg every 3 weeks. The investigators report findings from an evaluation of rest energy expenditure (REE) assessed using indirect calorimetry in the outpatient setting before treatment with checkpoints inhibitors.

This is a non-interventional, multi-country, multicentre, retrospective study designed to determine the treatment patterns and associated survival rate in patients with primary stage IA to IIIB resectable NSCLC diagnosed between 01 January 2013 and 31 December 2017 and followed until at least 31 December 2020 The main objective of this study is to describe the treatment patterns and determine their associated 3-year survival rate according to clinical and pathologic staging in patients with resectable early-stage (IA to IIIB as per AJCC seventh edition) NSCLC.
