Quantifying 18kDa TSPO Expression in the Lung in Pulmonary Artery Hypertension (PAH)
The aim of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the TSPO PET signal (measured with the radioligand [11C]PBR28) in the lungs of patients living with PAH relative to age matched controls. If so, TSPO PET may be a useful technique to non-invasively monitor response to …
Novel Pulmonary Imaging of Lung Structure and Function in E-cigarette Smokers
This is a longitudinal study of the long-term health impact of e-cigarette smoking on the lungs. Participants will be followed over a period of 5 years, and impacts of e-cigarette smoking on the lungs will be measured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using hyperpolarized xenon-129 gas, pulmonary function tests, exercise …
Cardiopulmonary Monitoring in Lung Cancer Patients Receiving Combined Thoracic Radiotherapy and Immunotherapy
The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate cardiopulmonary toxicity in patients with lung cancer (NSCLC or SCLC) undergoing combined thoracic radiotherapy ± chemotherapy and immunotherapy through timed monitoring and blood sample collection and to identify correlative biomarkers for predicting cardiopulmonary adverse events.
A Study of Lung Cancer Screening in People With Unexplained Weight Loss
The researchers are doing this study to see if people with unexplained weight loss who have lung cancer screening are more likely to have or develop lung cancer than people without unexplained weight loss. The lung cancer screening will involve use of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT), a CT scan that …
Multi Omics Molecular Characteristics and Immunophenotyping of Lung Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma
This study aims to reveal the molecular characteristics and immune microenvironmental profile of signet ring cell carcinoma of the lung (LSRCC) in the Chinese population through integrated multi-omics analyses. The project plans to enroll formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples and paired adjacent tissues from 39 patients with previously untreated LSRCC …
68Ga-grazytracer PET Assists in Diagnosing Pseudoprogression Following Immunotherapy in Lung Cancer.
Currently, there are limited methods available in clinical practice to distinguish pseudoprogression after immunotherapy. Most patients rely on follow-up observations to monitor the disease, which does not meet clinical needs. 68Ga-grazytracer is a novel imaging agent targeting granzyme B. By detecting the concentration of granzyme B, it reflects the localization …
Liquid Biopsy Assay of EBUS-TBNA Supernatant Fluid for Diagnosing Lung Cancer
Background and aim: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is the gold standard of lung cancer staging, yet up to 15% of procedures produce inadequate samples for definite diagnosis or staging. In such cases, more invasive surgical procedures are usually considered. Fluid collected during EBUS-TBNA is centrifuged to produce a …
ERectile Dysfunctions, gOnadotoxicity and Sexual Health Assessment in Men With Lung Cancer
Although many phase III clinical trials evaluate the quality of life as a secondary endpoint, male sexuality remains a neglected topic in oncology research. In light of the long-term efficacy of new-generation anticancer treatments for ANSCLC (i.e. targeted therapies and immunotherapy), there is a paucity of data about any detrimental …
Lung Protective Ventilation and Driving Pressure Guided PEEP Titration in CABG Surgery
Our aim in this study is to compare fixed and individualized PEEP (driving pressure guided ) application for intraoperative lung protective ventilation in patients undergoing on-pump CABG surgery. Researcher aimed to compare the effects of two different PEEP application methods on intraoperative hemodynamics, respiratory mechanics, and gas exchange, as well …
The Regression Pattern of Primary Lesions in Lung Cancer After Definitive Radiotherapy
Definitive radiotherapy is one of the important methods for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer. The recommended dose for definitive radiotherapy is 60-70Gy, and the optimal dose is still uncertain. Residual lesion after radiotherapy is a risk factor for recurrence. High doses to targeted tumor areas can effectively improve the local …
