M. Avium WGS During Mav-PD Treatment
This is a prospective observational study using whole genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate whether new strains (other than the initially identified strain(s)) of M. avium are responsible for persistently culture positive sputum during treatment (refractory disease), or the reversion to culture positive sputum after prior conversion to negative. The study …
The Cardiac Stress and Electrocardiographic Changes Caused by Lung Cancer Surgery
Lung cancer surgery causes significant changes in the small circulation as well as changes in the intrathoracic anatomy. The effects of lung cancer surgery on electrocardiography and the cardiac stress associated with the procedures have not been previously extensively studied. The aim of the present study is to ascertain whether …
TCM Constitution, Pattern Types, and Disease Factors in Primary Lung Cancer.
Recently, TCM has played an important role in adjuvant therapy for lung cancer. TCM treatment is based on pattern identification, and constitution theory is also used as a tool for TCM to predict the disease progression. Although there have been many researchs related to the pattern identification and constitution of …
Panomic Approach to Immune-Connected Assays in Small Cell Lung Cancer
The scope of the PICASSO project is to apply an innovative patient-based pan-omic approach to immune-assays, that will include multi-omics tumour characterization (genome, proteome, transcriptome), blood immune-cells and cytokine profiling, serological screening for paraneoplastic autoantibodies, clinical and metabolic measurements. The PICASSO project is aimed to validate in real world population …
Developing Circulating and Imaging Biomarkers Towards Personalised Radiotherapy in Lung Cancer
In stage 3 NSCLC, treatment and follow-up are generally performed in a 'one-size-fits-all' manner. In the setting of metastatic lung cancer there has been considerable success identifying biomarkers, which allow treatments to be tailored and lead to more personalised medicine. In patients with stage 3 disease there exists a significant …
Development and Clinical Validation of Early-stage Lung Cancer Prognostic Kit
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide in spite of the advanced progresses in medication and low-dose CT screening. The early-stage lung cancer accounts for less than 50% of newly diagnosed lung cancer in Taiwan, even in stage IB patients proximately 30% still suffer from recurrence and …
Piloting a Virtual Navigation (VN) System for Bronchoscopic Lung Nodule Sampling
The overall goal is to evaluate the role of a Virtual Navigation (VN) system (the Virtual Navigator) in the bronchoscopic evaluation and tissue sampling of lung cancer and other chest lesions at the Penn State Hershey Medical Center (HMC). The Virtual Navigator is a software package that runs on a …
Lung Clearance Index to Identify Scleroderma Patients at Risk for ILD
This National Jewish Health (NJH) Investigator Initiated pilot study funded by the Shah Foundation will prospectively perform a non invasive lung function test called Lung Clearance Index (LCI) to determine if 50 scleroderma patients without evidence of lung disease who have evidence of small airway inflammation or impairment to airflow …
Diaphragm Structure and Pathobiology in Patients Being Bridged to Lung Transplant
This study is designed to characterize the changes in diaphragm structure, function and biology during bridging to lung transplant by mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal life support.
A Study of Post COVID-19 Mechanisms for Chronic Lung Sequelae
The purpose of this study is to understand why some people experience long term effects, such as shortness of breath and fatigue, after a severe COVID-19 infection
