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

This phase II trial is studying how well a frailty index and geriatric assessment works in predicting toxicity to front-line chemotherapy in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. A frailty index and geriatric assessment prior to treatment may help identify a better treatment regimen

There is currently a lack of published HER3 expression prevalence data among non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The estimation of HER3 expression prevalence in this population using archival tissue samples and the assessment of associated patient characteristics in real world (RW) data will ultimately inform clinical strategy and increase awareness among health care providers (HCPs) and the greater medical community to improve patient care.

The study aims to explore the prevalence of EGFR mutations assessed with ctDNA samples in advanced NSCLC, who had received ≤ 1 prior systemic chemotherapy regimens.

Conduct a prospective study to compare gene detection by ctDNA with tumor tissue DNA via targeted DNA sequencing in surgical NSCLC patients.

The purpose of this study is to compare the frequency and abundance of T790M mutation among the different Clinical modes of EGFR-TKI failure.

This study will be carried out on 40 subjects at Chest department Tanta university hospital The subjects will be classified into three groups: Group I: will include ten non smoker volunteers (control group I). GroupII: will include ten smoker volunteers (control groupII). Group III: will include twenty NSCLC patients confirmed by pathological examination of bronchoalveolar examination (BAL), brush and/or biopsy.

The French National Cancer Institute (INCa) support a 28 hospital platforms network for molecular testing of cancer patients. These platforms routinely assess a panel of biomarkers in order to speed up access of French cancer patients to targeted therapies (commercially available or through clinical trials). The objective of the BIOMARKERS-France study is to describe the epidemiological, clinical and molecular characteristics of these patients and their tumors and to assess the impact of these analyzes on their treatment (ie bio-guided therapy) as well as outcomes (response rate, progression free and overall survival).

Novartis-sponsored, open-label, multi-center, interventional ETP to provide LDK378 to patients with ALK (+)NSCLC, who have been pre-treated with an ALK inhibitor; except in countries where ALK inhibitors are not approved or available. The protocol will further evaluate the safety of LDK378 in patients with ALK(+) NSCLC.

This is an open-label, non-interventional, single-arm, multicenter study in a real-world population to assess the clinically symptom improvement and quality of life (QoL) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC and positive EGFR mutation who receive EGFR-TKIs as the first-line treatment. The Primary Objective is to estimate symptom improvement rates in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC and positive EGFR mutation who receive EGFR-TKIs as the first-line treatment. A clinically meaningful improvement is defined as an increase from baseline of 2 or more points for LCS (Lung Cancer Scales) at Week 4.

To provide expanded access and to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of afatinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation(s) and have never been treated with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)
