COPD is one of the leading causes of morbidity, mortality and health care utilisation worldwide. Currently, COPD is the third leading cause of death worldwide and is therefore a major public health problem. Projections show an increase in the prevalence and burden of COPD in the coming decades due to …
This study will investigate how different types of routine sedation may affect patient's breathing whilst on a ventilator in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). There are different approaches to sedation which may have advantages and disadvantages. During the study patients will receive both intravenous and inhaled volatile sedation (similar to …
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single infusion of tocilizumab is effective in reducing the time to successful weaning from both supplemental oxygen and any respiratory support, in pediatric and adult patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) during acute chest syndrome (ACS).
This phase II trial tests whether TRC102 (methoxyamine hydrochloride) in combination usual care treatment comprised of pemetrexed, cisplatin or carboplatin, and radiation therapy followed by durvalumab works better than the usual care treatment alone to shrink tumors in patients with stage III non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). TRC102 is …
The purpose of the research is to evaluate a new schedule of alternating cycles of induction chemoimmunotherapy (chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab) and immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) alone for the initial treatment of patients with advanced lung or head and neck cancers.
This study is a prospective observational non-randomized clinical trial where all the participitants undergo the same procedure and every participitant's samples are compared to each other. The investigators conduct EBUS TBNA and EBUS TBMCB on all the study participants.The cryobiopsy samples are numbered to evaluate the number of biopsies needed …
Protective ventilatory strategy should be applied to reduce ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) after Lung Transplantation (LTx) or in case of acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) is an assisted ventilation mode in which respiratory support is coordinated by the electrical activity of the diaphragm …
The aim of the study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SKB571 for injection as monotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer with MET abnormalities. Eligible subjects will receive SKB571 monotherapy, until radiographic disease progression, intolerable toxicity, discontinuation of study treatment required by the …
This prospective, randomized, controlled phase II study aims to evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy with Envafolimab and chemotherapy in first-line extensive stage SCLC, as well as the impact of Trilaciclib on the incidence of myelosuppression and anti-tumor effects in patients.
This phase II trial tests the safety of positron emission tomography (PET) guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and how well it works to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has up to 5 sites of progression (oligoprogression) compared to standard SBRT. SBRT …
