Supplemental Oxygen in Pulmonary Embolism (SO-PE)
A study of how supplemental oxygen helps patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Hypothesis: Oxygen affects right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) primarily by relieving hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and reducing pulmonary pressure (PA) pressure, and that this process is metabolically driven.
Evaluation of IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab in Lung Cancer Surgery
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, optimal dose and imaging time of the investigational product, IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab for use as a near infrared imaging probe for image-guided surgery during lung cancer resection. IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab targets cancer cells over-expressing EGFR, allowing tumors to be visualized and may help surgeons …
Transarterial Chemoembolization for the Treatment of Lung Cancer
This phase II trial evaluates how well transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) works for treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer. TACE is a minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting chemotherapy directly into an artery that supplies blood to tumors, and then blocking off the blood supply to the tumors. Mitomycin (chemotherapy), …
Avecure Flexible Microwave Ablation Probe For Lung Nodules
This research study to determine the effectiveness of the AveCure Flexible Microwave Ablation Probe to destroy cancerous lung nodules up to 3 c m in size. This research study involves microwave ablation (MWA)
Using ctDNA to Determine Therapies for Lung Cancer
This is a study to look at whether the presence of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) in the blood can help to predict whether giving adjuvant treatment after surgery can decrease the chance of the cancer coming back in people with lung cancer.
18F-Fluoroazomycin Arabinoside (18F-FAZA) in Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to look for low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) in lung cancer using a positron emission tomography (PET) scan. Hypoxia can influence how lung cancer grows and responds to treatments like radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The use of PET scans to measure hypoxia may be better …
Hyperpolarized Xenon-129 MR Imaging of the Lung
Over the past 10 years, electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes, EC) have been commercialized as a "less harmful" alternative to traditional cigarettes.1,2 However, e-cigarettes are believed to cause pulmonary epithelial, endothelial and vascular dysfunction, and to cause murine phenotypes similar to those of human COPD. Recently, "spiked" vape juice has been linked …
Transbronchial Lung Cryobiopsy in Undiagnosed Acute Respiratory Failure
In patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure whose diagnosis is not established after initial evaluation, obtaining a histopathological diagnosis may improve the patients' prognosis. In our previous retrospective-controlled study, transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) can lead to an increased chance of establishing a diagnosis compared with transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB), with …
Phase 2 Study of Fingolimod in Lung Cancers
This is a single-institution, open-labeled study using fingolimod (FTY720/Gilenya) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) who have progressed on chemo-immunotherapy. The study design will be a 6 patient safety lead-in with 2 cohorts of patients for efficacy analysis where fingolimod 0.5 mg …
BAI-BACE for Advanced Lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Bronchial arterial infusion plus bronchial arterial chemoembolization (BAI-BACE) has been reported as non-first-line therapy to treat lung cancer in many hospitals in China. BAI, which uses chemotherapeutic drugs directly injected into the tumor and achieved a high concentration in a short time to kill the tumor. Then BACE could seal …
