This study is designed to compare two different weekly doses of a medicine called Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor given by injection under the skin with the standard doses of the same medicine given through a vein. Adults with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency will take part. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of …
This study investigates the increased rate of robotic atypical segmentectomies. Segmentectomy refers to removing a section of a lobe of the lung. Reviewing patients' data retrospectively may help researchers determine whether robotic surgery has led to an increase in atypical segmentectomy.
Lung cancer is responsible for more deaths in the United States than breast, prostate and colon cancer combined and is the number one cancer killer of Veterans. This is because lung cancer is usually diagnosed when the disease has spread, and cure is less likely. Lung cancer screening (LCS) finds …
Lower limb trauma requiring immobilization is a very frequent condition that is associated with an increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE). The TRiP(cast) score has been developed to provide individual VTE risk stratification and help in thromboprophylactic anticoagulation decision. The recent CASTING study had confirmed that patients with a …
This study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of I-DXd with treatment of physician's choice in participants with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
This research trial studies comprehensive genomic analysis in tissue samples from patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has come back or is stage IV. Comprehensive genomic analysis may identify specific gene mutations (changes in deoxyribonucleic acid \[DNA\]) and help doctors to tailor treatment to target the specific mutations.
The purpose of this observational study is to explore the incidence, risk factors, and relationship with therapeutic outcomes of VTE (venous thromboembolism) and ATE (arterial thromboembolism) associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) therapy. The primary questions it aims to address are: What is the real-world incidence of VTE/ATE in lung …
This is a retrospective and prospective study planned to include NSCLC patients with Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) and treated with antitumor therapy after 2018, from multiple centers such as the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, Guangdong Sanjiu Brain Hospital, etc., aiming to establish a database related to the treatment …
Despite scientific evidence, use of liquid biopsy (LB) in diagnosis and monitoring of lung cancer (LC) is limited since it requires major changes in diagnostic and care pathways. Analyzing tumor markers (TMs), circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood (LB) can inform about the nature of …
The trial will evaluate if the newly identified biomarkers of lung cancer in exhaled breath condensate are as a diagnostic tool comparable to the low-dose computer tomography (LDCT) implemented in lung cancer screening recently. Due to the possibility to collect breath condensate at any medical workplace and due to the …
