Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Jinyouli in preventing neutropenia in multiple chemotherapy cycles in elderly patients with small cell lung cancer through a multicenter, open, one-arm study Subjects with newly diagnosed small cell lung cancer who met the inclusion/exclusion criteria, chemotherapy regimen: etoposide: 100 mg/m2, d1-3, carboplatin: AUC=5, d1, q21d, prophylactic use test 48 h after chemotherapy Drug PEG-rhG-CSF.

The study is to investigate the sensitivity and specificity of serum exosome noncoding RNA as a biomarker for the diagnosis of lung cancer

Understanding the smoking change patterns among the newly diagnosis lung cancer patients after cancer diagnosis. Explore the related factors of the smoking change patterns. The type of smoking trajectory impact on survival and quality of life.

The home confinement caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has aroused the need to use telematic communication systems to provide remote treatments. More and more research is being done on preoperative respiratory physiotherapy in patients undergoing thoracic surgery with lung cancer. It is a treatment that has great relevance in the prevention of postoperative complications and in the quality of life of the patient. Therefore, this study is proposed to highlight the applicability of a telematic system of preoperative physiotherapy treatment with the FISSIOS application at the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau (HSCSP).

In the pilot study, 30 patients with metastatic lung cancer (stage IV) will be recruited at the start of their stage IV treatment from February 2019. The study period per patient will last six months, from the start of the stage IV treatment. Patients are eligible if they are diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer, speak sufficient Dutch, and are willing to participate. Patients are randomly assigned to two arms by simple randomization. In the intervention arm, 15 patients will receive a weekly questionnaire. Alerts will be sent to the multidisciplinary care team, who will undertake follow-up actions. In the control arm, 15 patients will receive the standard care pathway without weekly questionnaire and without automatic alerts to the care team. The standard care pathways and the care team are the same in both groups. In this pilot study, the weekly follow-up will be evaluated by a validation questionnaire, semi-structured interviews with patients (n=5) and the care team (n=5), and workload registration of the care team during a six-month period for all included patients in the pilot.

This study is a retrospective study, screening patients with systemic PET / CT scan in our department, enrolling the ones who meet the criteria, collect their information and resting state brain PET images.Then make the brain metabolic network analysis and statistical analysis to explore the PET brain metabolic network of non-small cell lung cancer patients and the effect of chemotherapy drugs on brain metabolic network in patients with advanced lung cancer.

The main endpoint is physiological rehabilitation after VATS-L under early mobilization. The secondary endpoints are exploring the effect of early mobilization on postoperative physiology. Investigators hypothesis that early mobilization is clearly advantaged to advance the physiological recovery.

This study aims to characterize the profile and outcomes for patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung (SqCC) who progress on 1L pembrolizumab in combination with platinum based chemotherapy and receive afatinib as second line (2L) therapy.

Non-small cell lung cancer patients may have brain metastases at diagnosis. Patients with brain metastasis may contribute as poor prognosis factors. This trial aims to explore the efficacy and the safety of immune checkpoint inhibitors in non small cell lung cancer patients with initial brain metastasis.

Organoids are generated from tumor biopsies, taken during a standard procedure. and are a collection of organ-specific cell types that are able to self-organize in-vitro in a manner similar to the in-vivo situation (3D). They have the capability to facilitate in-depth analysis of patient's own tumor material at point of diagnosis and during progressive/recurrent disease. There is currently no published protocol to establish long-term lung cancer organoids from lung cancer patients. Such a methodology would enable the prospective identification of 'patient tailored optimal treatments" as well as the derivation of predictive biomarkers for response and relapse. Apart from organoids, xenograft models also still have their merits. To generate PDX, tumor material will be retrieved from surgical specimens, cut in small pieces, transplanted in the recipient immune deficient animals either subcutaneously or implanted directly into the lung. A tumor with the median growth rate will be serially transplanted in vivo for further therapeutic experiments. Dedicated small animal irradiaton in our facility enables precise local irradiation of lung tumors with minimal radiation exposure of the surrounding normal tissues. Integrated cone beam computed tomography imaging system allows longitudinal monitoring of tumor response to novel treatments.
