MRI and Biomarkers for Lung Nodules Detected During Lung Cancer Screening
The primary objective of this pilot observational study is to evaluate the accrual and retention rate of a study population from a centralized lung cancer screening program to support MRI and blood-based biomarker research for lung cancer screening.
Feasibility of Evaluating Gene Alteration Analysis Using Samples Obtained by EBUS-TBNA in Patients With Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of death in the world. Overall 5-year survival rate is fewer than 10% and the effectiveness of conventional chemotherapy is limited. The new knowledge shows the correlation between genetic alteration and effective of chemotherapy. Therefore non-surgical modalities to obtain tumor specimens for genetic alteration …
Longitudinal Evaluation of Microbial and Host Signatures During Immunotherapy for Lung Cancer
This study will prospectively collect airway, stool, and blood samples on 80 subjects with lung cancer undergoing immunotherapy. Investigators will evaluate airway/stool microbial signatures associated with local (lower airway) and systemic (blood) immune tone.They will then study whether microbiota and/or host signatures predict subjects' response by longitudinal assessment of the …
Molecular Signature From Tumor to Lymph Nodes
Mediastinal lymph node (LN) involvement (N2) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) concerns 15% of resectable tumors and is associated with a poor prognosis and an overall survival reaching 9 to 49%. Literature fails to provide any definitive consensus regarding the management of these patients, except for the platinum-based doublet …
Analysis of the Microenvironment of Lung Cancer and Exploration of the Mechanism of Resistance to Immunotherapy
The investigators plan to conduct a multiomics analysis（such as, Genomics, proteomics, single cell RNA sequencing, space transcriptomics）of tumor tissue and blood, aiming at analyzing tumor heterogeneity, mapping the microenvironment map of lung cancer and exploring the mechanism of sensitivity and resistance to anti-PD1/PD-L1 antibodies.
LALUCA Research Platform A Prospective Analysis of Lung Cancer Diagnosis and Management in Clinical Practice
This is a prospective analysis of the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer in a real-world setting. The aim of the project is to establish a clinical platform to collect representative data on molecular testing, sequence of systemic tumor therapy and other therapies, and disease progression of patients with lung …
Piloting a Virtual Navigation (VN) System for Bronchoscopic Lung Nodule Sampling
The overall goal is to evaluate the role of a Virtual Navigation (VN) system (the Virtual Navigator) in the bronchoscopic evaluation and tissue sampling of lung cancer and other chest lesions at the Penn State Hershey Medical Center (HMC). The Virtual Navigator is a software package that runs on a …
Organoid-guided Personalized Treatment of Pleural Effusion
The study is a single-arm, single-center clinical research that utilizes patient-derived tumor organoids to predict drug sensitivity, thereby assisting clinicians in formulating treatment plans to benefit lung cancer patients with pleural effusion. This study is divided into three parts: acquisition of clinical samples from patients, in vitro organoid culture and …
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.
The Use of Molecular Radiogenomics in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is currently the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, and the dominant histopathology is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although many new targeted and immunomodulation therapies have emerged, not all patients are responsive to novel therapeutics. A more reliable and accurate risk stratification model to predict the treatment …
