GRAfT 2.0. A Multimodal Prospective Approach to Define the Mechanisms and Clinical Features of Acute and Chronic Rejection in Lung Transplantation
Background Lung transplants can save lives, but the procedure has risks. Some people develop donor-specific antibodies (DSA) after the procedure-that is, their bodies create proteins that treat the new lungs as foreign and mount an immune response against them. This is called rejection. But not everyone who has a transplant …
The Construction and Clinical Application of an Integrated Perioperative Management System for Lung Cancer Based on Wearable Devices and Intelligent Platforms
This study aims to develop and evaluate an integrated perioperative management system based on wearable devices and a digital rehabilitation platform for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing thoracic surgery. By combining preoperative functional assessment using the six-minute walk test (6MWT), continuous perioperative physiological monitoring, and structured postoperative …
Transplanting Lungs From Uncontrolled Donation After Circulatory Death
The study team developed an uncontrolled donation after circulatory death (uDCD) protocol that preserves lungs for just over 3 hours after death using positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) and supplemental oxygen. The study will assess lung uDCD program safety by continuous review of operations/clinical records from each case activation and …
Development of Innovative Preclinical Ex Vivo Models for the Study of Sarcomas and Metastases From Solid Tumors
The goal of this observational study is to learn how tumor tissue and blood samples from patients with sarcomas or metastases can be used to create laboratory models that help researchers study cancer behavior and test new treatments. Participants diagnosed with sarcoma or with bone or lung metastases from solid …
CT-Guided vs Conventional DLT Sizing in Thoracic Surgery
This is a prospective, randomized, single-blinded controlled trial designed to compare CT-guided versus conventional methods for selecting double-lumen tube (DLT) size in patients undergoing thoracic surgery requiring one-lung ventilation
Assessment of a Radiomics-based Computer-Aided Diagnosis Tool for Pulmonary nodulES
This is a pragmatic clinical trial that will study the effect of a radiomics-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) tool on clinicians' management of pulmonary nodules (PNs) compared to usual care. Adults aged 35-89 years with 8-30mm PNs evaluated at Penn Medicine PN clinics will undergo 1:1 randomization to one of two …
High Dose Dexamethasone to Reduce Postoperative Pain After Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery Lobectomy /Segmentectomy
The aim is to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a high dose arm (1mg/kg) vs a low dose (8mg in total) of steroid (Dexamethasone) given intravenous (IV) after the induction of anesthesia to "High-pain-responders" in patients undergoing VATS lobectomy/segmentectomy. The hypothesis is that a high dose of Dexamethasone …
Sleeve Lobectomy Following Neoadjuvant Therapy in NSCLC
The goal of this observational, retrospective, multicenter cohort study is to evaluate the surgical and oncologic outcomes of sleeve lobectomy performed via minimally invasive (RATS/VATS) or open thoracotomy approaches in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have undergone neoadjuvant therapy, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or combination regimens. The main …
The Efficacy and Safety of Fosrolapitant and Palonosetron Hydrochloride for Injection in Preventing Nausea and Vomiting Caused by Multi-cycle Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy in Patients With Esophageal Cancer and Lung Cancer
This study was a randomized, parallel, cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fosrolapitant and Palonosetron Hydrochloride for Injection in preventing nausea and vomiting caused by multi-cycle immunotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with esophageal cancer and lung cancer. A total of 120 subjects are planned to be enrolled, …
Anti-Mesothelin TNaive/SCM hYP218 (TNhYP218) CAR T Cells in Participants With Mesothelin-Expressing Solid Tumors Including Mesothelioma
Background Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer that grows in the linings of the body; this can include the membranes that line the heart, lungs, and internal organs. Mesothelin (MSLN) is a protein that appears in high numbers in many tumors, including mesothelioma. Researchers are developing a new treatment that collects …
