Aim of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) in patients with advanced pre-treated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Pain is a subjective, sensory and emotionally unpleasant experience resulting from real or hidden injuries in tissues. The pain experience is a subjective and unique experience in physiological and psychological terms and is the first negative sensory experience of the patient after the surgical procedure. Thoracotomy is an invasive surgical …
Radiotherapy (radiation treatment) is often used to treat lung cancers and lung tumors that have spread from other cancers. It can be very effective, especially in early-stage lung cancer or when there are only a few tumor sites. Even so, some patients later develop a local recurrence, meaning the cancer …
Locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) patients could benefit in overall and progression-free survival from regular dosimetric treatment plan adaptations during radiotherapy. This is known as adaptive radiotherapy (ART). However, implementing an adaptive radiotherapy workflow presents a highly cumbersome process. First, repeated planning-CT imaging during treatment is required, which …
Vaping is increasingly popular with both adolescent and adult Canadians, but the long-term health impacts remain unknown. We believe that the tools we currently have to detect lung disease in people who vape may be insufficient and propose new ways to find lung injuries that may impact them over the …
This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to compare the hemodynamic and pulmonary effects of single-step and stepwise lung recruitment maneuvers in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. After separation from cardiopulmonary bypass, patients will be randomized to receive either a single-step sustained inflation recruitment maneuver or a …
This study evaluates a fenretinide phospholipid suspension for the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
This will be a follow-up study to the "Comparison of High Dose vs. Standard Dose Influenza Vaccine in Lung Allograft Recipient" study (DMID Protocol Number 22-0014) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Lung transplantation is a life-saving therapy for patients with advanced lung disease, and is also associated with an improvement …
Lung allograft recipients have a higher burden of influenza disease and greater associated morbidity and mortality compared with healthy controls. Induction and early maintenance immunosuppression is thought to impair immunogenicity to standard dose inactivated influenza vaccine. This early post-transplant period is when immunity is most desirable, since influenza disease during …
To evaluate, under usual clinical practice conditions and with a 12-month follow-up , the most relevant pharmacokinetic parameters of tacrolimus metabolism and safety, in patients with recent lung transplant (unilateral or bilateral) treated with LCPT.
