Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to determine a well-tolerated dose of Carfilzomib in combination with Irinotecan (Phase 1b portion of the study) in subjects with relapsed small and non-small cell lung cancer or other irinotecan-sensitive cancers and to assess the 6 month survival of relapsed small cell lung cancer patients treated with this combination therapy. **The Phase 1b portion of the study is now complete**. Phase 2 portion of the study. The safest, maximally tolerated dose established as established in Phase 1 for Phase 2 is as follows -- Carfilzomib will be provided at 20/36 mg/m2 with Irinotecan dosed at 125 mg/m2. The purpose of the Phase 2 portion of the study is to assess 6 month survival of relapsed small cell lung cancer ins subjects treated with this combination therapy.

Phase 1 : To evaluate MTD(Maximal tolerated dose)and DLT(Dose limiting Toxicity) of Belotecan and Ifosfamide. Phase 2 : To analyse efficacy and toxicity of Belotecan and Ifosfamide.

As the gene polymorphism of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1(UGT1A1)is related to the side effect of diarrhea induced by irinotecan. UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7) and *6 (G/G and G/A) is related to low probability of diarrhea and UGT1A1 gene *28 (7/7) and *6 (A/A)is related to high probability of diarrhea. The purpose of this study is to find out the efficacy and side effect between two different dosages of irinotecan combined with cisplatin scheme in extensive disease-small cell lung cancer with UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7)and *6 (G/G and G/A), based on the hypothesis that the UGT1A1 gene *28 (7/7) and *6 (A/A)is few in the Chinese population and increasing the dose of irinotecan can improve the efficacy without increasing the side effect in the patients with UGT1A1 gene *28 (6/6 and 6/7)*6 (G/G and G/A).

The purpose of this study is studying icotinib following chemotherapy to see how well it works compared to chemotherapy in treating patients with resected stage IIA-IIIA NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of cancer treatment on the brain. Some cancer patients report changes in their memory or thinking after treatment. These changes could be a result of changes in brain structure, such as a change in size or thickness of different parts of the brain. The investigators will look to see if these changes in brain structure happen through the results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The investigators will do this by looking at the brain structure of lung cancer patients who have surgery and chemotherapy versus those who have surgery only.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect and safety of erlotinib versus NVB plus cisplatin (NP) as adjuvant treatment in patients with stage IIIA NSCLC after complete resection with EGFR activating mutations and to explore a new treatment strategy for this subset.

Millions of patients die of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) every year. There are several methods to treat NSCLC, including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and bioimmuotherapy. Recently, hyperthermia therapy has played an important role in neoplasm therapy. It has showed some effect in NSCLC both in animal experiment and clinical practice, yet there is little literature about Whole-body Hyperthermia (WBH) with neoplasm. The investigators decides to develop this randomized contrasted multicenter clinical study to testify to the effect of chemotherapy combined with WBH to treat stage IIIB/IV Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).

Chemotherapy is still the standard first-line treatment option for EGFR unmutated patients. After a randomized phase Ⅲ trial, BEYOND was presented the synergistic effect of progression-free survival(PFS) could be expected when chemotherapy is combined with Antiangiogenesis agent bevacizumab in China;Therefore,in this study, The investigators will investigate the efficacy and safety of Anlotinb combined With Pemetrexed and Cisplatin as first-line therapy in patients with chemotherapy-naive, stage IIIB or IV, non-squamous NSCLC without targetable EGFR or ALK genetic aberrations.

This study is for patients with EFGR gene sensitive mutations diagnosed by pathology or cytology, having a course of chest radiotherapy treatment and molecular Target Therapy for the treatment of stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Patients with non-small cell lung cancer have a risk of the tumour in the lung recurring or progressing after treatment. In this study, the investigators aim to verify the following hypothesis: whether in combination with concurrent or concomitant EGFR-TKI regimen chemotherapy, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy can reduce the risk of the tumour in the lung recurring or progressing similarily. Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy concomitant with EGFR-TKI has a better normal tissue dose/volume tolerance than concurrent regimen. the survival can be improved by using this new molecular Target-radiotherapy method.

Previous studies have shown that the addition of bevacizumab to the standard first-line platinum-based combination therapy can improve the objective response rate of patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer by 20% to 28% and improve survival. Data from these published literatures suggest that the improvement in objective response rates is due mainly to patients with stable disease of chemotherapy. It has been reported that 15% of patients achieved objective remission after continuing treatment with the regimen after receiving 2 cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy. Therefore, the use of 2 cycles of chemotherapy after stabilization of patients with bevacizumab, hoping to improve the objective response rate of such patients 20%, and may improve survival. For the above reasons, design this study to validate our hypothesis.
