Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

To assess: efficacy of APL-101 as monotherapy for the treatment of NSCLC harboring MET Exon 14 skipping mutations, NSCLC harboring MET amplification, solid tumors harboring MET amplification, solid tumors harboring MET fusion, primary CNS tumors harboring MET alterations, solid tumors harboring wild-type MET with overexpression of HGF and MET efficacy of APL-101 as an add-on therapy to EGFR inhibitor for the treatment of NSCLC harboring EGFR activating mutations and developed acquired resistance with MET amplification and disease progression after documented CR or PR with 1st line EGFR inhibitors (EGFR-I)

The purpose of this study is to determine if the commonly administered chemotherapeutic agents including cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin, docetaxel and gemcitabine for solid tumors in clinical oncology, either a single format or given as combinations followed by surgery are effective in the treatment of relapsed and refractory non-small cell lung cancer patients.

This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of image-guided, intensity-modulated photon or proton beam radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. This trial is testing a new way of delivering radiation dose when only the tumor receives dose escalation while the surrounding normal structure is kept at standard level. Photon beam radiation therapy is a type of radiation therapy that uses x-rays or gamma rays that come from a special machine called a linear accelerator (linac). The radiation dose is delivered at the surface of the body and goes into the tumor and through the body. Proton beam radiation therapy is a type of radiation therapy that uses streams of protons (tiny particles with a positive charge) to kill tumor cells. Both methods are designed to give a higher than standard dose of treatment to the tumor and may reduce the amount of radiation damage to healthy tissue near a tumor.

To Determine if SAbR improves survival over SR in High Risk Operable Stage I NSCLC

The investigators hypothesized that local radiation therapy can enhance the effect of anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody through priming T-cell effector function against cancer cells. Described as above, The investigators concluded that modest dose of radiation to local site prior to immunotherapy is the best to enhance T-cell-mediated immunity. Accordingly, The investigators will investigate the combining effect of hypofractionated-sublethal dose of radiation therapy followed by anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody, atezolizumab, for SCLC patients who are recurrent or refractory for initial platinum-based chemotherapy

The purpose of this study is to see whether adding liver stereotactic ablative radiotherapy/L-SABR to standard drug therapy is better than standard drug therapy alone for people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer/NSCLC.

The purpose of this study is to studying neoadjuvant IBI308, bevacizumab, plus pemetrexed and carboplatin followed by surgery to see how well it works in treating patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has been widely used for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for nearly two decades. Usually, it was applied through three ports with at least one drainage after surgery, which often lead to acute chest pain. Therefore, fewer, smaller ports, and wider intercostal space for surgery has been required. Uniport VATS became a feasible option with the development of surgical techniques and instruments, with potentially less postoperative pain and shorter hospital stays. However, there may be some complications, or with a longer time of operation, even more difficult in lymph nodes resection during learning curve. In our study, a Randomized Controlled Trial was designed to study the operation time, perioperative blood loss, conversion rate, duration of postoperative drainage, length of hospital stay, visual analogue score of postoperative pain, complications, and survival.

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center phase III clinical trial that intends to evaluate the role of early cardiovascular intervention based on impedance cardiography in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer receiving radical radiochemotherapy±immunotherapy.

Lung cancer is the main cause of death among cancer diseases, in the Czech Republic, as well as worldwide. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is responsible for more than 80% of deaths among cancer patients. Bronchogenic carcinoma is the reason of death of almost 5.500 cases every year in the Czech Republic, the mortality/incidence ration varies around 85%. The main cause for these unfavorable findings is the late detection of the carcinoma in late stages only (III and IV), when a long-term control of the disease is exceptional. Chemotherapy is able to prolong the life of patients with NSCLC by less than one year on average, that is why new treatment approaches are being examined.
