Definitive radiotherapy is one of the important methods for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer. The recommended dose for definitive radiotherapy is 60-70Gy, and the optimal dose is still uncertain. Residual lesion after radiotherapy is a risk factor for recurrence. High doses to targeted tumor areas can effectively improve the local …
This phase II trial studies how well cadonilimab combined with Bevacizumab and docetaxel work in treating patients with non-squamous and stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Cadonilimab, a PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to …
To compare effects of Alternate Nostril Breathing exercise with incentive spirometer on lung functions (forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume, and peak expiratory flow rate) in Asthma patients.
The researchers are doing this study to see if sotorasib is a safe and effective treatment for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with a KRAS G12C mutation who have not received treatment for their cancer since it became advanced. (Participants have not received a "first-line therapy" since …
The objective of this research is to determine the accuracy of different types of lung transthoracal needle aspiration (TTNA) i.e. jabbing-then-suction, suction-with-jabbing, and suction-only TTNA in patients with suspected lung cancer. Researchers will compare these techniques to determine whether there are any quality differences in the obtained tumor samples
Pemetrexed is one of the first-line chemotherapeutic agents for non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Since 2017, intrathecal pemetrexed has shown good efficacy for patients with leptomeningeal metastases from NSCLC. It has been recommended as the preferred drug for intrathecal chemotherapy by the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) guidelines. …
The goal of this pilot trial is to learn whether the use of cryo nerve block and its effect on sensation in the chest alters recovery after bilateral lung transplantation, and to which extent these parameters are influenced. As this study is setup as a pilot study, the main questions …
Lung cancer patients undergoing upfront surgery, highly benefit from a systematic lymph node dissection in the mediastinum and in the surgical specimens. The latter is performed by the pathologist. Developing a standardized technique to dissect the lobectomy specimen has the potential of maximizing the retrieval of all N1 stations lymph …
Concurrent chemoradiotherapy has long been the standard modality for locally advanced small-cell lung cancer, which could achieve median overall survival of 25 mos. Conventional fractionation of 66Gy/33f and hyperfractionation of 45Gy/30f twice daily have been acknowledged as the two standard radiotherapy modalities according to CONVERT study. With the introduction of …
This study focuses on the significant impact of lung cancer in China, highlighted by its high incidence and mortality rates, influenced by factors like aging populations, smoking, and environmental issues. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the duration, severity, and factors affecting post-surgery symptoms like pain and coughing in patients. …
