Bronchoscopic ICG Injection and Percutaneous Hook-wire Techniques for Preoperative Lung Nodule Localization...

Lung Cancer

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transbronchial ICG and percutaneous hook-wire assisted Video-assisted thoracoscopic sublobar resection. In the control group, CT-guided percutaneous hook-wire preoperative localization will be used for surgical resection; In the experimental group, electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy guided transbronchial ICG injection will be performed for localization before VATS.

Avoiding Cardiac Toxicity in Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Curative-intent Radiotherapy

Lung Cancer

Radiotherapy plays a major role in the treatment of lung cancer and recent advances in radiotherapy have led to better cure rates. However, the radiotherapy dose needed to destroy the cancer cells can unfortunately also damage the surrounding organs, such as the heart. The precise mechanism of damage and which areas of the heart are more sensitive to radiation is not currently known. This project uses the analysis of large amounts of existing radiotherapy treatment data to determine this. Establishing detailed radiotherapy dose limits for the heart and the heart's sub-structures will lead to the delivery of heart-sparing radiotherapy, where possible, in lung cancer patients treated in Yorkshire and Greater Manchester. The investigators estimate that this should lead to an improvement in one-year survival of approximately 10%.

Effect of Astragalus-based Formula: Qingshu-Yiqi-Tang on Modulating Immune Alterations in Lung Cancer...

CarcinomaNon-Small-Cell Lung

The myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) can further trigger cytotoxic T cell apoptosis, and may shift the macrophages toward M2 subtype, inhibit the Th1 cell, and initiate other immune suppressive mechanism. The functions of NK cells and regulatory T cells are altered, resulting in a disturbance of anti-tumor immune function. All these can further create an environment with a benefit for malignant cell growth and advancement. Astragalus-based formula may confer its survival advantage in cancer patients through modulating the immune system and reversing the immunosuppressive microenvironment. The investigators aim to study the role of Qingshu-Yiqi-Tang in reversing the immune alterations in patients with advanced stage, non-small cell lung cancer who receive 1st line doublet chemotherapy of cisplatin plus doxetaxel(or Pemetrexed for adenocarcinoma)and 2nd line target therapy of erlotinib. The investigators can explore the possible mechanism of the Astragalus-based formula: Qingshu-Yiqi-Tang in modulating and reversing immunosuppression in advanced stage, non-small cell lung cancer patients.

Study of How Caregivers Help Patients Cope With Respiratory and Other Symptoms Caused by Lung Cancer...

Anxiety DisorderDepression3 more

RATIONALE: Gathering information about how patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals cope with symptoms caused by lung cancer, such as breathlessness, cough, fatigue, anxiety, depression, pain, and difficulty sleeping, may help doctors learn more about non-drug methods of treating symptoms of respiratory distress. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how caregivers help patients cope with respiratory and other symptoms caused by lung cancer.

Amifostine to Prevent Side Effects in Patients Who Are Receiving Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy...

Drug/Agent Toxicity by Tissue/OrganLung Cancer1 more

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Drugs such as amifostine may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of amifostine to prevent side effects in patients who are receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy for limited-stage small cell lung cancer.

"Impact of a Nursing Intervention in the Management of Oncological Patients With Lung Cancer Under...

Lung Cancer

Introduction. Lung cancer is very common worldwide with 2.09 million cases in 2018. Immunotherapy has become a mainstay in cancer treatment. There is insuficient knowledge about the impact of altered needs, as well as the interventions developed by the nurse that are aimed at cancer patients in immunotherapy treatment. Objectives. Describe the needs of non-microcytic lung cancer patients in immunotherapy. And, evaluate the effectiveness of a nurse intervention program aimed at these patients in decreasing comorbidities, increasing satisfaction, early detection of symptoms and management of toxicities, quality of life and monitoring of anthropometric indicators. Methodology. Phase 1: descriptive, cross-cutting and prospective study. Phase 2: quasi-experimental pre-post study. The sample is patients of the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, with non-microcytic lung cancer in treatment with Checkpoints inhibitor antibodies. The dependent variables: sociodemographic variables, clinical variables, satisfaction, quality of life, nutritional status, psychological impact, toxicities, number of unscheduled visits and health costs. Independent variable: nurse intervention program. Implications for practice: Knowing the needs of patients in immunotherapy treatment will allow the development of a nurse care program to meet these needs and evaluate the program.

Safety and Efficacy of Aprepitant for CINV in Patients With Lung Cancer Receiving Multiple-day Cisplatin...

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and VomitingLung Cancer

Aprepitant is an oral neurokinin-1(NK-1) antagonist which is used for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). This phase II clinical trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy of aprepitant in the prevention of CINV with lung cancer patients receiving 3-day cisplatin-based chemotherapy.
