This prospective, two-part, single-arm, phase II trial is designed to evaluate whether the use of definitive radiation to the primary lung lesion prolongs progression-free survival (PFS) in treatment-naïve, metastatic, driver-mutated non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) patients who are subsequently placed on a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI).
Introduction: The etiology and therapy of eosinophilic lung diseases are still poorly understood. For individual forms of disease, such as eosinophilic asthma or eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), new therapeutic approaches exist that block the interleukin IL-5 or the IL-5 receptor. Eosinophilic manifestations of the respiratory tract can exclusively affect …
A study of how supplemental oxygen helps patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Hypothesis: Oxygen affects right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) primarily by relieving hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and reducing pulmonary pressure (PA) pressure, and that this process is metabolically driven.
Pneumonia is a leading cause of death and hospitalization among the elderly in Taiwan. High-quality home care is essential to recovery and reducing readmission, yet primary caregivers often lack the specific skills needed, such as airway clearance and safe feeding techniques. Traditional education, consisting of one-time verbal instructions and paper …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is characterized by heterogeneous lung injury, with dependent regions often collapsed and non-dependent regions relatively well-aerated, forming the so called "baby lung." Mechanical ventilation, while essential, can induce additional lung injury (VILI) via overdistension (baro/volutrauma) or repetitive alveolar collapse (atelectrauma). Protective ventilation strategies with low tidal …
The objective of this study is to develop a Decision Aid for Lung Cancer Molecular Testing (DA\_LCMT) and to facilitate shared-decision making in patients who were diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma by intraoperative frozen pathology about whether to conduct the molecular testing.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, optimal dose and imaging time of the investigational product, IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab for use as a near infrared imaging probe for image-guided surgery during lung cancer resection. IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab targets cancer cells over-expressing EGFR, allowing tumors to be visualized and may help surgeons …
This research study to determine the effectiveness of the AveCure Flexible Microwave Ablation Probe to destroy cancerous lung nodules up to 3 c m in size. This research study involves microwave ablation (MWA)
This is a study to look at whether the presence of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) in the blood can help to predict whether giving adjuvant treatment after surgery can decrease the chance of the cancer coming back in people with lung cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to compare Assay results to diagnoses determined by currently accepted standards for lung cancer detection. This will be accomplished by analysis of sputum samples from three cohorts including healthy Participants, high risk Participants, and cancer patient Participants using the Assay as developed in …
