Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immune response and clinical efficacies of HLA-A*2402 restricted epitope peptides URLC10, CDCA1, and KIF20A emulsified with Montanide ISA 51 for advanced non-small cell lung cancers.

This study will evaluate the anti-tumour activity, safety and tolerability of RO4929097 as monotherapy in patients with recurrent or refractory non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will receive oral doses of RO4929097 of 80mg (cohort 1) or recommended Phase II dose (cohort 2) on a 3 days on 4 days off schedule. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Target sample size is <50.

This study propose neoadjuvant chemotherapeutic role by erlotinib.

This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 and cediranib maleate together in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate also may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of different timing of concurrent chemoradiation in the treatment of limited disease status Small-cell lung cancer.

Background: Carboplatin-paclitaxel is a commonly used chemotherapy combination for advanced non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and other solid tumors. In a randomized clinical trial, the combination of carboplatin, paclitaxel, and the additional chemotherapy drug bevacizumab had a better response rate and survival compared to carboplatin and paclitaxel alone. However, this trial treated only patients with a specific diagnosis and treatment risks. Further research is needed to determine whether this combination is useful for other diagnoses. YM155 is a drug that targets a type of chemical often found in cancer cells. It has been investigated in several phase I and phase II clinical trials, and it has been shown to be well tolerated and moderately effective in treating advanced NSCLC in patients who had not responded well to one or two standard treatments. Objectives: - To determine the efficacy of the combination of carboplatin, paclitaxel, and YM155 in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer. Eligibility: - Individuals 18 years of age and older who have been diagnosed with advanced non-small-cell lung carcinoma or other solid tumors for which standard therapy is not likely to be effective. Design: Before the start of the study, participants will be screened with a medical history, blood tests, imaging scans of the affected areas, tumor biopsies, and other tests as directed by the study doctors. Participants will be treated for six 21-day cycles, or 18 weeks of treatment. Each cycle will include blood tests and imaging studies as required. On day 1 of each cycle, participants will receive an infusion of paclitaxel and carboplatin, followed by a 4-day infusion of YM155 (through a portable electronic infusion pump). Participants will have a computed tomography scan or other imaging every other cycle (approximately every 6 weeks) to determine whether the therapy is affecting the cancer site. After the sixth cycle, participants will return for follow-up visits at least every 3 months, and will be asked to remain in contact with the researchers to allow further study of the long-term effects of the treatment.

This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase Ib dose-escalation study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of oral (PO) GDC-0941 administered with one of three planned regimens: Arm A: paclitaxel and carboplatin in bevacizumab-ineligible NSCLC patients, Arm B: paclitaxel, carboplatin, and bevacizumab in bevacizumab-eligible NSCLC patients and Arm C: pemetrexed, cisplatin, and bevacizumab in bevacizumab-eligible, non-squamous NSCLC patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether BIIB022, Paclitaxel and Carboplatin are effective in the treatment of Treatment-Naive, Stage IIIB/IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of fentanyl matrix by assessing patients' satisfaction when administrating fentanyl matrix, a background pain treatment, and a breakthrough pain treatment to lung cancer patients who complain of pain. Fentanyl matrix is designed to deliver medication at a nearly constant amount per unit time into the body through the skin for 3 days (72 hours).

This trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel, carboplatin and bevacizumab combination, administered biweekly, in patients with pretreated, advanced non small cell lung cancer.
