Definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by durvalumab (Pacific protocol) has been the standard modality for stage III locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. In spite of the median overall survival of 47.5 months, there still existed 38.5% and 6.9% patients who finally developed intra-thorax and extra-thorax recurrence respectively in long-term follow-up. …
Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from the cerebrospinal cavity of non-small cell lung cancer patients with central nervous system metastasis, blood was obtained from veins, and metastatic lung cancer tumor tissue was obtained from surgically resected brain tumors or meningeal tumors. Then comprehensively analyze the exosomes contained in the aforementioned samples, …
Immunotherapy has recently become a main-stream treatment option in cancer care, with improved clinical outcomes in many malignancies, especially that of lung cancer. The long-term benefits of this treatment however are limited. There is therefore a critical need to distinguish predictive biomarkers of response from those of resistance, and to …
This is a phase 2 study of a drug called crizotinib in people with metastatic (the cancer has spread to other parts of the body) non-small cell lung cancer with a mutation (change) in genes called ROS1 or MET. The purpose of this study is to look at how effective …
This is a clinical trial from Eastern Cooperative Thoracic Oncology Project (ECTOP), numbered as ECTOP-1012. The goal of this clinical trial is to confirm the theraputic effect of segmentectomy for ground glass-dominant invasive lung cancer with size of 2-3cm. The main questions it aims to answer are: The 5-year disease-free …
This is a phase 2 pragmatic study that evaluates the clinical benefit of continuing systemic therapy with the addition of locally ablative therapies for oligo-progressive solid tumors as the primary objective. The primary outcome measure is the time to treatment failure (defined as time to change in systemic failure or …
This is an interventional, non-pharmacologic, randomized controlled study evaluating the impact on quality of life of a personalized exercise program in oncogene addicted lung cancer patients undergoing active treatment. Patients will be randomized 1:1 in two arms: arm A (interventional) and arm B (control). The program of physical activity will …
This this study is for individuals who have treatment-naïve extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (small cell lung cancer that wont respond to treatment). Doctors leading this study hope to learn if combining durvalumab, carboplatin and etoposide with hyofractionated ablative radiation therapy (radiation focused on certain parts of the body) will …
Lung cancer is a highly prevalent disease worldwide in women and men. In 2022, lung cancer stood as the most frequently diagnosed cancer with approximately 2.48 million new cases on a global scale, followed by cancers of the female breast (11.6%), colorectum (9.6%), prostate (7.3%), and stomach (4.9%). Lung cancer …
For patients diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), lung resection surgery remains the gold standard for curative treatment. This scheduled operation is associated with significant morbidity, particularly in individuals with impaired cardio-respiratory function. Therefore, patient optimization is paramount. The process begins prior to surgery with preoperative rehabilitation, commonly referred …
