Active clinical trials for "Lung Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of chemotherapy combined with dendritic activated cytokine-induced killer cell (D-CIK) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

This single-arm pilot study tries to invesitgate how well giving icotinib with rh-endostatin (Endostar®) works in treating patients with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations. Icotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Anti-angiogeneiss drug, such as rh-endostatin, can block tumor growth by inhibiting the ability of tumors to grow new blood vessels and spread. It is not yet known whether icotinib is more effective when given with rh-endostatin in NSCLC patients with EGFR activating mutations.

Nicotinamide is an inhibitor of human sirtuins (HDAC III), and is found to re-activate epigenetically silenced tumor suppressors, RUNX3 (runt-related gene 3) and others, in cancer cells. Nicotinamide was found to be effective in several animal cancer models including lung, bladder, liver, etc. The purpose of this study is to determine whether nicotinamide is also effective in the treatment of human lung cancer.

In this clinical study, the investigators evaluate the efficacy and safety of S-588410 in patients who underwent an adjuvant chemotherapy after the complete resection of non-small-cell lung cancer.

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.

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of intercalated combination of erlotinib and radiotherapy for patients with EGFR-mutant, unresectable, locally advanced NSCLC, and to explore a new treatment strategy for this subset. After Induction by erlotinib, local radiotherapy is intercalated, and followed by 24-week erlotinib maintenance.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of patients who receive apatinib plus docetaxel and zoledronic versus docetaxel and zoledronic alone as second line treatment for advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer with bone metastases.

The purpose of this study is to studying the addition of apatinib with chemotherapy to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in combination with chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC.

The primary objective is to describe the genomic profile of long-term survivors, especially to find out potential genomic prognosis and/or predictive factors for gefitinib long-term efficacy as compared to rapid PD patients

Lung cancer is a malignant tumor that causes the highest morbidity and mortality, and the main pathological type is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Most of them present with advanced stage at diagnosis. This design is to study maintenance therapy with pemetrexed plus apatinib after first line induction therapy four cycles for advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer.
