Individuals with extensive smoking history have 2- to 3-fold increased risk of dying prematurely compared to age- and gender-matched peers. Historical data indicate that 55% of heavy smokers will die from cardiovascular disease (CVD), while approximately 5% will die from lung cancer. Lung cancer screening programs are currently being implemented …
The goal of this observational study is to learn how a physician uses the results of the Percepta® Nasal Swab test to manage people with a newly identified pulmonary nodule. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the use of the Percepta Nasal swab test reduce the number …
The goal of this observational study is to develop an advanced expiratory algorithm model utilizing exhaled breath volatile organic compound (VOC) markers. This model aims to accurately differentiate benign from malignant nodules in individuals harboring pulmonary nodules. The primary objectives it strives to accomplish are: To assess the diagnostic accuracy …
APOLLO 11 main aim is to build a strong Italian long-lasting lung cancer network (in around 48 Italian centres) on real world data and translational research by creating a decentralized long-term national database (settle locally in each centre) and a "virtual" multilevel biobank in each centre. Besides, APOLLO 11 will …
RATIONALE: Studying samples of sputum and tissue in the laboratory from patients with dysplasia or cancer may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at biomarkers in patients with …
The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy in terms of CNS-specific PFS of the combination of standard systemic treatment plus SRS vs. standard systemic treatment alone in patients with newly diagnosed and untreated (except for surgery) asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic brain metastases from melanoma or NSCLC. This …
Beamion LUNG-3 study evaluates whether zongertinib, an oral HER2-targeted treatment, can improve outcomes compared with standard adjuvant treatment in adults with completely resected Stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have activating HER2 tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) mutations. Eligible participants must have undergone curative-intent surgery and received guideline-appropriate …
The Inspiratory effort-Targeted Pressure Support Ventilation (IT-PSV) is a cluster randomized controlled trial. Its main aim is to determine whether an inspiratory effort-targeted pressure support setting strategy, compared to the traditional tidal volume and respiratory rate target, can improve clinical outcomes in adult participants undergoing pressure support ventilation. The investigators …
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is unresected and has a gene mutation called KRAS G12C. Researchers want to learn if calderasib (MK-1084) can be given with durvalumab, an immunotherapy, to treat NSCLC after chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The goal …
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). ES-SCLC is a type of lung cancer that has spread throughout the lung, to the other lung, or to other parts of the body. A standard (usual) treatment for ES-SCLC uses both chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Chemotherapy …
