Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

RATIONALE: Computer-assisted scheduling of nicotine inhaler use may be an effective method to help people stop smoking. PURPOSE: Randomized cinical trial to compare the effectiveness of computer-assisted scheduling of nicotine inhaler use with that of self-scheduled nicotine inhaler use in participants who plan to stop smoking.

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. It is not yet known which regimen of radiation therapy may be more effective in preventing brain metastases. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy in preventing brain metastases in patients who have small cell lung cancer that has been diagnosed within the past year.

RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as KRN7000 use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of KRN7000 in treating patients who have solid tumors that have not responded to previous treatment.

This trial investigates an educational program called Awareness, Information, and Resources for Lung Cancer Screening Program in improving knowledge about lung cancer screening in medically underserved communities. This program aims to educate and remove barriers to lung cancer screening among medically underserved community members who are eligible for lung cancer screening, and to improve access to evidence-based screening guidelines for early detection for lung cancer in the Western New York area.

This study will consist of two primary aims designed to help advance quality and utilization of lung cancer screening (LCS) within an academic and community-based medical system. The objective of Aim 1 is to pilot test the effect and feasibility of using direct outreach and telemedicine to increase LCS counseling and LDCT uptake among screening-eligible patients. Patients who confirm eligibility and agree to participate will be randomized into two study arms: 1) usual care or 2) telemedicine LCS counseling referral. For Aim 2, each arm will first complete a baseline survey to explore how individual beliefs and knowledge impact screening intention and uptake. Patients in both arms will also receive brief information on lung cancer screening guidelines and be asked to report LCS-related preferences after exposure to the information. All interventions will be administered using a secure, web-based platform.

This Phase II trial is to see how well single agent chemotherapy and pembrolizumab work elderly patients (≥ 75 years) with advanced non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pembrolizumab stimulates your immune system to help fight lung cancer. This treatment approach may be better tolerated in elderly patients.

The study aims to understand the effects of learning about one's genetic risk for lung cancer that is specific to their ancestry. Participants will be given hypothetical personalized genetic risk results and ask to think about how they might respond to such information if they actually received such results.

This is a phase 3, multi-center, single dose, open-label, exploratory study in suspected lung cancer patients scheduled to undergo endoscopic or thoracic surgery per CT/PET/MRI or other imaging based on standard of care. This study aims to assess the efficacy of OTL38 and Near Infrared Imaging (NIR) at identifying pulmonary nodules within the operating theater, and to assess the safety and tolerability of single intravenous doses of OTL38.

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled phase II clinical study for evaluating anlotinib combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation immunotherapy versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation immunotherapy in locally advanced, unresectable NSCLC.

Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether ULDCT with ASiR-V can be used for the detection and diameter measurement of pulmonary nodules at an extremely low dose comparable to those associated with plain-film chest radiography. Furthermore, mixed-effects logistic regression analysis was used to determine independent predictors for the sensitivity of pulmonary nodule detection to explore the application range of ULDCT in Chinese patients.
