The purpose of this protocol is to perform a pilot prospective controlled clinical trial to evaluate the potential role of lung fissure completion with pleural adhesiolysis strategy (experimental intervention) in severe emphysema/COPD patients with failed bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) via the use of endobronchial valves (EBVs) therapy. In select …
This is a multicenter Phase II/III study evaluating the efficacy and safety of SCTB41 combined with chemotherapy versus tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment in patients with driver-negative locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The Phase II portion is an open-label safety run-in study enrolling approximately …
Lung resection, a critical treatment for various thoracic diseases, including lung cancer, often necessitates prolonged hospitalization due to rare but severe postoperative complications such as chyle leaks, with an occurrence of 0.25%-3%, prolonging chest drainage, and delaying recovery. Therefore, effective postoperative care is essential for optimizing outcomes, reducing complications, and …
Background Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be hard to treat and is often fatal. People with NSCLC commonly have changes in the bacteria that populate their lungs. These bacterial changes may aid tumor growth. Researchers want to find out if treating the bacteria, too, can help cancer treatment work …
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy(effectiveness) of doxycycline, a potent inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (lung collagenase) activity in prevention of Tuberculosis associated lung fibrosis and associated lung function decline among patients with drug sensitive advanced TB. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: Does …
Patients with newly diagnosed stage IV non-oncogene addicted NSCLC, who are fit for systemic treatment and don't have any symptoms of brain disease will undergo an MRI of the brain to screen for brain disease.
Before undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery, patients with small lung nodules often need a procedure called "CT-guided hook wire localization." This involves using a CT scanner to help doctors place a tiny wire in the lung to mark the exact location of the nodule for the surgeon. While very helpful …
This phase II/III Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial compares the effect of adding cemiplimab to docetaxel and ramucirumab versus docetaxel and ramucirumab alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Cemiplimab is a monoclonal antibody …
Chest trauma is common in traumatology. Its management is based on ventilatory therapies, among which non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is commonly used. Some studies have shown the benefit of this therapy in hypoxemic patients, avoiding intubation, reducing length of stay and healthcare costs, and even reducing mortality. However, these studies are …
Lung cancer is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the world, of which 80%-85% are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Most patients with NSCLC are at the advanced stage of diagnosis and have a poor prognosis. The 5-year survival rate of stage III patients is about 15%, the …
