Develop and Test the Effects of the 'Computer-Assisted OPD COPSCCP on Early Stage Lung Cancer Patients
Although there is a relatively better prognosis, the 5-year survival rate for early stage lung cancer (Stage I, II, IIIA) is still relatively low compared to those other types of cancer. These patients might suffer lots from the uncertainty and substantial disease and treatment related physical changes. The investigator aims …
Pathways, a Hope Intervention to Support Personal Goal Pursuit, Mental Health, and Quality of Life During Advanced Lung Cancer Treatment
This study will compare the effects of a brief supportive intervention, called Pathways, against enhanced usual care on the mental health and quality of life of people undergoing treatment for advanced lung cancer. Patients will complete baseline survey measures and be randomized to intervention. Survey measures will be collected again …
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 …
Ultrasound-guided Cryobiopsy of Mediastinal/Hilar Lymph Nodes
EBUS-guided cryobiopsy of mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes has shown to be a useful diagnostic tool to obtain tissue for histological analysis and further targeted therapies in lung malignancies. Due to the large size and better quality of the tissue samples, a higher diagnostic yield than with transbronchial needle aspiration …
Prehabilitation for Patients Undergoing Lung Cancer Surgery
Major surgery has been linked to running a marathon as in both represent large endeavours where the body will experience an increase in demands to supply the necessary energy. It has been alledged that, as one would train to prepare for a marathon, the same should be applied to surgery. …
Leveraging the Emergency Department (LEAD) Study
This is a pilot Type 1 Hybrid Effectiveness-Implementation Trial. The study will first examine reach in a non-traditional setting (the Emergency Department - ED) that uses an Electronic Health Record (EHR)-embedded Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) screening tool to identify lung screening-eligible patients for a tailored intervention to increase lung …
Preliminary Efficacy of Different Exercise Training During Immunotherapy in Patients With Lung Cancer: The ENHANCE Trial
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and effects of 12-week exercise training at different intensities among individuals with advanced lung cancer receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors. The names of the study interventions involved in this study are:
Investigation of the Effects of Functional Inspiratory Muscle Training in Patients With Lung Cancer
Patients' pulmonary functions and diffusion capacity worsen following lung cancer surgery. Diaphragmatic activity and lung compliance decrease due to surgery. Peripheral and respiratory muscle functions are impaired in patients with lung cancer, exercise capacity and physical activity level decreased. Patients have postural instability and balance problems. Inspiratory muscle training has …
Comparing Valve-regulated Pleural Drainage to Traditional Closed Chest Tube Drainage
Thoracic drainage is an important adjunctive treatment following thoracic surgery, primarily aimed at removing postoperative blood, air, and exudate from the thoracic cavity. It helps maintain negative pressure in the thoracic cavity, promotes full lung expansion, and prevents pulmonary complications, especially atelectasis. Traditional closed thoracic drainage methods have many limitations. …
Rectus Sheath Block With Liposomal Bupivacaine Versus Thoracic Epidural Analgesia for Pain Control Following Pancreatoduodenectomy
This phase II trial compares the effect of rectus sheath block with liposomal bupivacaine to thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) on pain control in patients following surgical removal of all or part of the pancreas and duodenectomy (pancreatoduodenectomy). Administering long acting local anesthetics, such as liposomal bupivacaine, in between the muscle …
