Circulating Tumor DNA Guided Therapeutic Strategies for CRC Patients With Small Pulmonary Nodules...

Advanced Colorectal CancerCirculating Tumor DNA

The clinical diagnosis and treatment of small pulmonary nodules (suspected to be lung metastases) in advanced colorectal cancer patients remain controversy. Previous studies have shown that tumor-informed circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) blood testing can sensitively detect residual cancer. Postoperative ctDNA in colorectal cancer patients is a valuable biomarker to identify minimal residual disease (MRD) after radical resection, which is possibly useful in redefining the risk group of patients and guiding postoperative treatment. This study aimed to explore the clinical value of therapeutic strategies based on tumor-informed ctDNA test in advanved colorectal cancer patients with small pulmonary nodules.

Assessment of Tool Placement in Pulmonary Nodule(s) Using a Robotic Navigational Bronchoscopy System...

Lung Cancer

The aim of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the ION endoluminal system at reaching and obtaining biopsies from lung nodules when used in combination with 3-dimensional imaging such as CT scans. Data on safety will also be collected.

Limonene for Pulmonary Nodule Chemoprevention

Pulmonary Nodules

The prevention and treatment of lung nodules involves many fields in preventive medicine and clinical medicine. A nodule is a growth or lump that may be malignant (cancer) or benign (not cancer). This study is aim to investigate the chemopreventive effect of limonene in inhibiting the occurrence/progression of ground glass pulmonary nodules. It is expected that limonene can be used as a safe and effective chemopreventive agent for preventing the development/progress of pulmonary nodules as well as expanding the indications of limonene.

Optimization of the Sensitivity of Histological Diagnosis of Pulmonary Nodules

Nodule

In pulmonary oncology, the diagnosis of medium-sized pulmonary nodules (10 to 20 mm), too distal to be reached by standard bronchial fibroscopy but remaining proximal, is difficult. There are 2 techniques: transthoracic puncture-biopsy under CT scan, usually performed by radiologists, and distal sampling guided by radial ultrasound mini-probe. The limitations of the last technique could be overcome by the use of cryoprobes for sampling, as they would take more tissue by freezing.

Puncture Template Assisted Biopsy for Pulmonary Nodules

Pulmonary NoduleCT Guided Biopsy

Pulmonary nodules are small in size and easy to move with breathing. CT guided puncture is highly dependent on the personal experience of physicians, that is, the accuracy, efficiency and incidence of complications of puncture vary greatly among physicians. Puncture template (PT) assisted CT guided needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules has good clinical feasibility, which is expected to make up for the deficiency of simple CT guided needle biopsy, and make the needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules more accurate and standardized. This study intends to carry out a randomized controlled study to further evaluate the safety and effectiveness of PT assisted CT guided needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules, and provide higher quality data reference for its clinical application. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: PT assisted CT guided or simple CT guided lung biopsy. The operation related information, complications and postoperative pathological results of the two groups were collected. Primary end point: puncture accuracy Secondary end point: success rate of first needle puncture; complication rate (such as pneumothorax, bleeding, etc.); operation time; CT scan times; pathologic findings.

CBCT-Guided Navigational Bronchoscopy For Lung Nodules

Peripheral Pulmonary NodulesLung; Node2 more

The purpose of this study is to determine if the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-guided navigation bronchoscopy is better in diagnosing lung nodules compared to navigation bronchoscopy alone.

Application of Carbon Dioxide for Identifying the Intersegmental Plane in Thoracoscopic Segmentectomy...

Lung CancerPulmonary Nodule4 more

With the increasing acceptance of routine computed tomography (CT) screenings, early-stage lung cancer detection is becoming more frequent. For ground glass opacity predominant early-stage lung cancer, segmentectomy can get the same oncological benefits as lobectomy. In addition, lung nodules that are highly suspected to be metastases can also be performed by segmentectomy to preserve more lung function. During the surgery, the rapid and precise identification of the intersegmental plane is one of the challenges. The improved inflation-deflation method is currently the most widely used method in clinical practice. According to the dispersion coefficient of the gas, the rapid diffusion properties of carbon dioxide would be expected to speed lung collapse and so facilitate surgery. The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility and safety of carbon dioxide on the appearance time of satisfactory and ideal planes during segmentectomy.

Molecular Analysis of Endoscopic Cytology Samples Supernatant in Pulmonary Nodules

Lung CancerLung; Node

Lung cancer screening is based on low dose CT scan (LDCT), a highly sensitive but poorly specific tool. Complementary specific approaches are thus strongly needed, among which cell-free DNA (cfDNA) genotyping has been proven highly specific but of low sensitivity (25 to 50% for stage I diseases) due to inconstant tumor shed. Tumor biopsy is thus often required and radial endobronchial ultrasound (rEBUS) bronchoscopy is a minimally invasive approach (<3% complications) but of limited sensitivity in cases of nodules < 20 mm. The investigators hypothesized that methylation analysis on cfDNA floating in supernatant derived from rEBUS specimens could improve rEBUS sensitivity

Added Value of a Small Camera (Iriscope) in the Endoscopic Diagnosis of Peripheral Lung Nodules...

Pulmonary NoduleSolitary

Since the beginning of lung screening program in the different countries around the world by chest CT scan, numerous lung nodules and masses of unknown etiology are diagnosed. Usually, the pathological diagnosis is obtained by bronchoscopy. However, peripheral bronchi cannot be seen after the fifth bronchial division as the diameter of the broncoscope is greated than the diameter of the bronchi. Therefore, the Iriscope was developed. It consists in a thin catheter with a mini-camera at its distal extremity. The aime of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic yield of bronchoscopy guided by Iriscope in the setting of peripheral lung nodules and masses supect of malignancy, to compare the Iriscope to endobronchial radial ultrasonography (which is a validated technique to guide bronchoscopy in the setting of peripheral lung nodules and masses) and to evaluate the added value on the diagnostic yield by combining these 2 techniques.
