Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

This is a phase II, single center, open label, multi-cohort platform study to identify a signature in tumor tissues, blood or stool that might help identify participants who are more likely to experience tumor shrinkage or side effects from the combination of the study drugs durvalumab and oleclumab. In addition, this study will see if participants with certain types of advanced cancer benefit from the experimental drug combination of durvalumab and oleclumab, will evaluate the safety and tolerability of durvalumab and oleclumab, and to understand the effects that durvalumab and oleclumab have at a molecular level in tumor cells and their effects on the immune system. This study will look at subjects with locally advanced or recurrent/metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), non-small-cell carcinoma (NSCLC) and squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN). Within each cancer type, 40 patients will be enrolled (for a total of 120 patients on study): 20 patients will be enrolled with locally advanced disease ("window") and treated with durvalumab 1500 mg given by IV x 1 dose and oleclumab 3000 mg x 2 doses every 2 weeks prior to definitive therapy (e.g. surgery), and 20 patients will be enrolled with recurrent/metastatic ("metastatic") disease and treated with durvalumab 1500 mg given by IV every 4 weeks and oleclumab 3000 mg given by IV every 2 weeks x 4 doses then IV every 4 weeks till disease progression, toxicity, withdrawal of subject consent, or another discontinuation reason. For locally advanced PDAC patients, approximately 10 of the 20 subjects may receive 6-8 cycles of modified FOLFIRINOX (mFFX) prior to the administration of durvalumab and oleclumab.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of INCMGA00012 in combination with chemoradiation therapy (CRT) in participants with unresectable, Stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study will randomize approximately 360 participants in a 2:1 ratio into the INCMGA00012 in combination with CRT followed by consolidation therapy with INCMGA00012 treatment group and placebo in combination with CRT followed by consolidation therapy with placebo treatment group.

This phase II LUNG-MAP treatment trial studies how well sapanisertib and docetaxel work for the treatment for squamous cell lung cancer that is stage IV or has come back (recurrent). Sapanisertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving sapanisertib and docetaxel may work better in treating patients with squamous cell lung cancer compared to standard chemotherapy.

This phase II trial tests how well trabedersen (OT-101) in combination with atezolizumab works in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread from where it first started (lung) to other places in the body (metastatic) or has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). OT-101 is a transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta2 specific drug. TGF-beta2, a cytokine that is often overexpressed in various malignant tumors, may play an important role in promoting the growth, progression and migration of tumor cells. OT-101 binds to the TGF-beta2 receptor causing inhibition of protein production, thereby decreasing TGF-beta2 protein levels which may result in the inhibition of tumor cell growth and migration. Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving OT-101 and atezolizumab together may be an effective treatment for patients with metastatic or recurrent NSCLC.

This study is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter phase 1/2 trial designed to establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of daily oral venetoclax when given in combination with irinotecan in patients with relapsed or refractory small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

This is an investigator-initiated, single center, controlled, randomized clinical trial with two parallel arms in a 1:1 ratio. The objective of the study is to systematically assess the influence of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) on the diagnostic yield for diagnosis and molecular profiling, as well as on the safety, of pulmonologist-performed ultrasound-assisted needle aspiration biopsy (US-NAB) of superficial lesions across different metastatic sites in a series of consecutive patients with suspect locally advanced or advanced lung cancer.

This clinical trial will conduct an educational intervention to promote knowledge of and preventive health behaviors related to personal air pollution exposure. Air pollution is n ubiquitous environmental exposure that is associated with harmful health effects including lung cancer. The educational intervention is comprised of 2 educational videos that include information regarding air pollution, health effects, and personal preventive health behaviors to reduce air pollution exposure and the use of a wearable air pollution sensor. The knowledge gained from this study may inform future research that will be designed to promote awareness of air pollution and its health effects.

The investigators hypothesize that the addition of ramucirumab and N-803 will augment the clinical activity of atezolizumab, and in order to evaluate the exact mechanism of action of the combination, the investigators propose a comprehensive analysis of paired peripheral blood samples collected during this study.

Despite aggressive surgery and chemotherapy, the risk of lung cancer recurrence remains high in most patients. This study aims to determine if a novel immune therapy consisting of two drugs is feasible and potentially increases the chance of cure in lung cancer patients after surgery and standard chemotherapy. The immune-based therapy being given in this study consists of two medications named durvalumab and tremelimumab.

Both metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and extensive stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) are incurable with current therapies, but due to mutations induced by cigarette smoke, typically express a large number of altered proteins that can be recognized as foreign by the immune system. This antigenicity is thought to explain the efficacy of pembrolizumab as either a first or second line treatment in this disease. For patients who receive chemotherapy plus immunotherapy as a first line therapy, there is sound rationale for combination treatment with immunotherapy and a therapeutic antitumor vaccine as a maintenance strategy. Regardless of PD-L1 expression in the tumor, monoclonal antibodies that block PD-1/PD-L1 interactions are effective second line therapies after chemotherapy in both NSCLC and SCLC. In addition, by targeting the immune system against tumor specific antigens using a peptide vaccine, the efficacy of pembrolizumab alone is expected to be enhanced, with an improved response rate and prolonged overall survival with no additional toxicity. This pilot study will provide a preliminary test of the feasibility of generating a personalized, tumor neoantigen-specific therapeutic vaccine and the safety of combining it with checkpoint blockade immunotherapy.
