Neuroendocrine Transformation in RB1/TP53 Inactivated NSCLC
Histology transformation from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC), especially from epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) to small cell lung cancer (SCLC), is widely recognized as a rare mechanism for NSCLC to confer tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) resistance. The probability of its occurrence …
Genomic and Methylation Markers in SCLC and LCNEC for Chemo-Immunotherapy Resistance Prediction (STRATUS)
The goal of this observational study is to understand how genomic and epigenetic factors contribute to resistance against chemo-immunotherapy in adults diagnosed with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) or metastatic large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). Both ES-SCLC and LCNEC are aggressive forms of lung cancer with limited treatment options …
Study for the Multidimensional Analyses of Resistance and Toxicity to Immune- and Targeted-therapies.
Novel treatment modalities like targeted therapies and Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionised the therapeutic landscape in oncology and hematology, significantly improving outcomes even in clinical contexts in which little improvement had been observed for decades such as metastatic melanoma, lung cancer, and lymphoproliferative neoplasms such as chronic lymphoid leukemia or …
Safety of Low PEEP Maneuvers During ARDS Management
Acute Respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe condition in which protective ventilation is a critical point in its management. Positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) setting can be challenging for clinicians and high PEEP has been associated with better outcome in moderate and severe ARDS. Recently, recruitment to inflation ratio …
RecistTM Criteria in Evaluating the Efficacy of Targeted Therapy for NSCLC
Investigators established the efficacy evaluation criteria for tumor markers (RecistTM) in the preliminary research. Among patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, patients with positive driving genes are more likely to exhibit abnormalities in tumor markers, which suggests that this criteria may be more suitable for evaluating the efficacy of …
Molecular Landscape Analysis and Clinical Implications for NSCLC Patients With Rare Mutations
Lung cancer is the most common primary cancer of the lung and is responsible for the ever increasing number of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Especially in China, the burden of lung cancer has been rising rapidly due to its large and growing population. Histologically, approximately 85% of lung cancers are non-small-cell …
Study on the Mechanism of Acquired Resistance of Entrectinib
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the mechanism of acquired resistance in first line trearment of ROS1-positive NSCLC with entrectinib. The main question it aims to answer is: what is the acquired resistant mechanism of entrectinib as first line treatment setting in patients? Tissue or blood …
Development and Analysis of a Stool Bank for Cancer Patients
This study is aimed at understanding the impact of gut microbiota on efficacy of cancer therapies, in particular checkpoint inhibitors, and using the resulting information to design microbial immunotherapies. Although animal models are of use to determine the influences of gut and other microbiota on cancer treatment modalities, they are …
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) Monitoring of Regional Ventilation During Pediatric Laparoscopy
The goal of this prospective, observational study is to describe EIT measurements at different time points during the perioperative period in healthy children undergoing laparoscopic surgery. The objective is to evaluate the impact of general anesthesia and laparoscopy on regional pulmonary ventilation visualized at EIT during the perioperative period.
Kidney Function in People With Cystic Fibrosis in the Era of HEMT
The purpose of this study is to find out what causes kidney disease in people with CF. The investigators will study biomarkers in the blood and urine that can either predict who is at risk or detect kidney damage early before it becomes permanent. The study will compare these markers …
