Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

The overarching purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of an investigational agent, P10s-PADRE, a peptide mimotope-based vaccine, in combination with standard-of-care (SoC) treatment in subjects with advanced-stage (i.e., metastatic) Lung Cancer. Vaccine will consist of P10s-PADRE admixed with an adjuvant, MONTANIDETM ISA 51 VG. Up to one hundred fifty (150) subjects with advanced-stage Lung Cancer of any histologic type will be enrolled for this vaccine trial. This single-arm, multi-site trial is designed to evaluate the therapeutic benefits of the vaccine in subjects with advanced-stage lung cancer. The primary objectives of the study are: (1) to monitor the safety and tolerability of the vaccine when it is administered in combination with SoC therapy; and (2) to determine whether immunization with vaccine can successfully elicit a robust immune response in subjects with advanced-stage lung cancer.

Patients with non-small cell lung cancer who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were screened and randomly divided into control group and experimental group. Control group: chemotherapy plus water ,test group: chemotherapy plus green tea. Primary endpoint: Assessment of changes in quality of life (QOL) after chemotherapy according to FACT-L (4th edition). A clinically significant change in the quality of life of lung cancer was defined as a FACT-L score change of ≥6 points from baseline, with <6 points defined as no clinically significant changes;

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of lung cancer specific cytotoxic lymphocytes (LC-CTLs). The secondary objectives are to evaluate the rate of successful LC-CTLs generation in vitro and determine the anti-lung cancer efficacy.

The primary objective of this study is disease free survival rate at 5 years in stage IA2 (T1aN0M0 or T1bN0M0 only) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated either by surgery or stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).

The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the combination of chemotherapy treatment, which could be either Cisplatin or carboplatin and etoposide, and the research study drug, Pembrolizumab (also known as MK-3475) in patients with high grade neuroendocrine carcinomas of the gastroenteropancreatic system or lung who are chemotherapy naïve. The chemotherapy treatment you receive will be either Cisplatin or carboplatin and etoposide. the participant's doctor will discuss this choice with you and determined which chemotherapy treatment is best for you.

The purpose of this research study is to find the dose of the study drug PDR001 that, when given in combination with the drug Panobinostat, results in the best outcomes for metastatic melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

Before deciding on treatment for patients with lung cancer, a critical step in the investigation is finding out whether the lymph nodes in the chest contain cancer cells. This is accomplished with a biopsy of the lymph nodes through the airway wall, known as Endobronchial Ultrasound-guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration. Guidelines require that every single lymph node in the chest be biopsied through a process called Systematic Sampling. However, emerging data suggests that the lymph nodes that appear benign on imaging and ultrasound do not need a biopsy. A proposed alternative to the inefficient Systematic Sampling is the simplified Selective Targeted Sampling of the lymph nodes, whereby only lymph nodes that look malignant are biopsied. This trial will evaluate the simplified Selective Targeted Sampling of lymph nodes and compare it to Systematic Sampling to see whether it is equally as effective in staging lung cancer.

The study will develop and test the feasibility of the Lung Cancer Assessment of Risk and Education (LungCARE) intervention to increase discussions about lung cancer screening between patients and physicians. This intervention will be designed to reach primary care patients and will be implemented at three levels of the healthcare structure: patient, physician, and system. The patient component includes a short lung cancer screening video and questions regarding screening preferences. Patients will receive immediate feedback in a report (patient report) that summarizes their lung cancer screening preferences and a handout summarizing the educational video. At the physician level, primary care physicians (PCPs) will receive a similar report (physician report), which will be delivered to them prior to the patient visit. The report contains additional information about documenting discussion related to risk, screening, and referrals in the electronic health record (EHR) system (system component). The investigators will develop the LungCARE intervention and have a comparison group that will receive usual care. Preliminary testing of LungCARE will occur via a randomized controlled trial (RCT) at the University of California, San Francisco, General Internal Medicine and Women's Health Primary Care clinics. The RCT will evaluate LungCARE among 50 PCPs and 120 high-risk current and former smoker patients. The investigators will determine whether the intervention is accepted by patients and physicians and whether patients who received LungCARE are more likely to discuss lung cancer screening with their physicians when compared to patients and physicians in the comparison group. The investigators will also determine whether the intervention affects knowledge of lung cancer and low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening, perception of risk, and worry about lung cancer in patients when compared to patients in the comparison group. The investigators expect their research to provide specific recommendations that will facilitate patient-physician discussions about LDCT screening and promote shared decision-making among patients and physicians.

This is single arm, prospective, multi-center, cohort study to evaluate blood TMB for improved efficacy of atezolizumab in locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC at the study enrollment who failed one or more prior lines of chemotherapy including at least 1 platinum-based.

This is a phase II Randomized comparison clinical trial of activated CIK armed with anti-CD3-MUC1 bispecific antibody for advanced lung cancer. And the aim of this research is to study the clinical efficacy and safety of activated CIK armed with anti-CD3-MUC1 bispecific antibody for lung cancer.
