Medical Thoracoscopy for Undiagnosed Transudative and Exudative Pleural Effusion
Indonesia is one of country that contributes the most cases of tuberculosis worldwide. Tuberculosis is the most commonly etiology of exudative pleural effusion. There have been many studies about undiagnosed exudative pleural effusion, but there are not many studies about the use of medical thoracoscopy for diagnosing transudative and exudative …
Pleuroscopy First Versus Thoracentesis First in Patients with Suspected Malignant Pleural Effusions
This is a randomized control trial of patients with suspected malignant pleural effusions to compare whether patients who have a thoracentesis or pleuroscopy (pleural biopsy) obtain an adequate biopsy, achieve a diagnosis, and begin cancer-directed therapy faster.
OPC5: Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) in Patients With Malignant Pleural Effusion.
This study will monitor and evaluate patient and personnel safety and toxicity during the implementation and evaluation of Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) directed treatment. Furthermore, this study will focus on Quality of Life questionnaires, LENT score, and evaluate pain and breathlessness using af visual analogue scales (VAS).
AMPLE-3: IPC Plus Talc vs VATS in Management of Malignant Pleural Effusion
The purpose of this study is to determine if an indwelling catheter is more effective than surgical pleurodosis in treating malignant pleural effusion. Who is it for? You may be eligible for this study if you are an adult who is suffering from symptomatic proven pleural malignancy or an otherwise …
A Phase Ib Study of JMKX000197 Injection in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion
A Phase Ib Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerance, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Preliminary Efficacy of JMKX000197 Injection in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion
Strategy for Prompt and Effective Thoracentesis in the Emergency Department
The SPEEDTAP-trial is a prospective, randomised, investigator-initiated, multicenter, clinical superior trial investigating two thoracentesis methods in four emergency departments (ED) in Central Denmark Region. Patients are randomised to either manual fluid removal in the ED or passively fluid drainage using gravity in the radiology department (standard of care). Primary outcome: …
Alteplase Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter for the Management of Symptomatic Septated Malignant Pleural Effusion
This study investigates whether alteplase can help to improve pleural fluid drainage and dyspnea (breathlessness) in patients with non-draining malignant pleural effusion. Alteplase helps dissolve blood clots and is used to treat heart attacks, strokes, and clots in the lungs. Alteplase may help to control symptoms of breathlessness.
Effectiveness and Safety of Sodium Bicarbonate Pleural Lavage in the Treatment of Complex Pleural Effusion
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sodium bicarbonate pleural lavage in treating complex pleural effusion in adult. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will sodium bicarbonate pleural lavage reduce the failure rate of medical treatment (referral rate for surgery) for …
A Phase Ib/II Clinical Trial of M701 in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusions Caused by NSCLC
This is a phase 1/phase 2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of M701 in patients with treatment of malignant pleural effusions caused by NSCLC.
IFN-γ Combined With T Cells in the Treatment of Refractory Malignant Pleural Effusion and Ascites
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of IFN- Y combined with T cells in the treatment of refractory malignant pleural effusion and acties, using a multicenter, single-arm, open design.
