Lung resection, a critical treatment for various thoracic diseases, including lung cancer, often necessitates prolonged hospitalization due to rare but severe postoperative complications such as chyle leaks, with an occurrence of 0.25%-3%, prolonging chest drainage, and delaying recovery. Therefore, effective postoperative care is essential for optimizing outcomes, reducing complications, and …
Before undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery, patients with small lung nodules often need a procedure called "CT-guided hook wire localization." This involves using a CT scanner to help doctors place a tiny wire in the lung to mark the exact location of the nodule for the surgeon. While very helpful …
This phase II/III Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial compares the effect of adding cemiplimab to docetaxel and ramucirumab versus docetaxel and ramucirumab alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Cemiplimab is a monoclonal antibody …
Chest trauma is common in traumatology. Its management is based on ventilatory therapies, among which non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is commonly used. Some studies have shown the benefit of this therapy in hypoxemic patients, avoiding intubation, reducing length of stay and healthcare costs, and even reducing mortality. However, these studies are …
Lung cancer is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the world, of which 80%-85% are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Most patients with NSCLC are at the advanced stage of diagnosis and have a poor prognosis. The 5-year survival rate of stage III patients is about 15%, the …
This is an open-label, multicenter, randomized phase 2 trial for patients with tyrosine kinase inhibitor-naïve ALKrearranged advanced NSCLC. Subjects are initially treated with lorlatinib for 12 weeks.
The purpose of this randomized study is to determine the safety and efficacy of quaratusugene ozeplasmid (Reqorsa) added to osimertinib in NSCLC patients with activating EGFR mutations who have progressed while on treatment with osimertinib. Quaratusugene ozeplasmid consists of non-viral lipid nanoparticles that encapsulate a DNA plasmid with the TUSC2 …
Post-acute COVID syndrome (PACS) /post-acute sequale of COVID-19 (PASC) / post-COVID is a novel clinical syndrome with unknown biological mechanisms, and to date no standard-of-care, routines for follow-up, or evidence-based treatments have been established. In this project, we will employ a systems medicine approach to identify pathways and networks of …
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of almonertinib plus anlotinib as first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR sensitive mutation and TP53 mutation. This study is an exploratory single-arm study. The specific treatment regimen is as follows: Non-squamous NSCLC: almonertinib (110 mg/d) plus anlotinib (12mg/d) is started …
The purpose of this protocol is to perform a pilot prospective randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the potential role of lung fissure completion strategy (experimental intervention) in addition to endobronchial valve (EBV) placement (representing "standard-of-care") in select patients with severe COPD/emphysema and with evidence for \<95% fissure completion between …
