Fast TILs to Treat Metastatic Pleural Effusions From Epithelial or Mesothelial Primary Tumors
This research study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel immunotherapy, Fast TIL, an Adoptive Cellular Therapeutic (ACT), to fight cancer that has spread to the pleura or pleural mesothelioma. The ACT product is created at AHN West Penn using the participant's pleural infiltrating T-cells (PIT). It …
OPC5: Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) in Patients With Malignant Pleural Effusion.
This study will monitor and evaluate patient and personnel safety and toxicity during the implementation and evaluation of Pressurized IntraThoracic Aerosol Chemotherapy (PITAC) directed treatment. Furthermore, this study will focus on Quality of Life questionnaires, LENT score, and evaluate pain and breathlessness using af visual analogue scales (VAS).
Indwelling Pleural Catheters With or Without Doxycycline in Treating Patients With Malignant Pleural Effusions
This study is designed to obtain preliminary data comparing indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) versus IPCs plus doxycycline for pleurodesis as treatments for malignant pleural effusion (MPE). Indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) are commonly used to treat pleural effusions (build-up of fluid in the lungs). Doxycycline is an antibiotic that is also …
A Phase Ib Study of JMKX000197 Injection in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion
A Phase Ib Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerance, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Preliminary Efficacy of JMKX000197 Injection in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion
Alteplase Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter for the Management of Symptomatic Septated Malignant Pleural Effusion
This study investigates whether alteplase can help to improve pleural fluid drainage and dyspnea (breathlessness) in patients with non-draining malignant pleural effusion. Alteplase helps dissolve blood clots and is used to treat heart attacks, strokes, and clots in the lungs. Alteplase may help to control symptoms of breathlessness.
Effectiveness and Safety of Sodium Bicarbonate Pleural Lavage in the Treatment of Complex Pleural Effusion
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sodium bicarbonate pleural lavage in treating complex pleural effusion in adult. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will sodium bicarbonate pleural lavage reduce the failure rate of medical treatment (referral rate for surgery) for …
Strategy for Prompt and Effective Thoracentesis in the Emergency Department
The SPEEDTAP-trial is a prospective, randomised, investigator-initiated, multicenter, clinical superior trial investigating two thoracentesis methods in four emergency departments (ED) in Central Denmark Region. Patients are randomised to either manual fluid removal in the ED or passively fluid drainage using gravity in the radiology department (standard of care). Primary outcome: …
IFN-γ Combined With T Cells in the Treatment of Refractory Malignant Pleural Effusion and Ascites
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of IFN- Y combined with T cells in the treatment of refractory malignant pleural effusion and acties, using a multicenter, single-arm, open design.
A Phase Ib/II Clinical Trial of M701 in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusions Caused by NSCLC
This is a phase 1/phase 2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of M701 in patients with treatment of malignant pleural effusions caused by NSCLC.
Impact of Pleural Manometry on the Assessment and Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusion: A Pilot Clinical Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out if performing a pleural fluid drainage (thoracentesis) together with the measurement of pressure inside the chest (pleural manometry) during the same procedure can help doctors choose the best treatment for each patient with malignant pleural effusion.The main questions it aims …
