Studies of Phenotypic and Functional Characteristics of Circulating Neutrophil Subpopulations in Patients With Lung Cancer
The objective is to study the phenotypic, functional and metabolomic characteristics of neutrophils circulating subpopulations in lung cancer patients, and to compare them to a control group of healthy volunteers. A blood sample will be taken before the first treatment session for the lung cancer patient and a second blood …
Liquid Biopsy Assay of EBUS-TBNA Supernatant Fluid for Diagnosing Lung Cancer
Background and aim: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is the gold standard of lung cancer staging, yet up to 15% of procedures produce inadequate samples for definite diagnosis or staging. In such cases, more invasive surgical procedures are usually considered. Fluid collected during EBUS-TBNA is centrifuged to produce a …
Tempus Sculptor Study: Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) Observational Study
The study is a non-interventional evaluation of participants with SCLC who will receive diagnostic and (where possible) post-progression tumor tissue profiling, alongside plasma ctDNA biomarker profiling in addition to their standard of care therapy and disease surveillance.
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer With Central Nervous System Metastasis
Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from the cerebrospinal cavity of non-small cell lung cancer patients with central nervous system metastasis, blood was obtained from veins, and metastatic lung cancer tumor tissue was obtained from surgically resected brain tumors or meningeal tumors. Then comprehensively analyze the exosomes contained in the aforementioned samples, …
Biology of Young Lung Cancer Study: The YOUNG LUNG Study
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about lung cancer (NSCLC or SCLC) diagnosed in adults at ages 45 or younger.
Small Cell Lung Cancer Community Engagement to Eliminate Research Discepancies
This study will evaluate if a direct-to-patient, de-centralized, remote approach will improve clinical research outreach and engagement for patients with SCLC, in the context of a bio-specimen collection study. The study will also assess self-reported preferences and needs of patients with SCLC, regarding choosing and accessing novel therapies in research …
Sleeve Lobectomy for Lung Cancer in Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques
The goal of this multicenter observational study is to evaluate the long-term survival and perioperative outcomes of sleeve lobectomy in robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) for patients with central lung cancer when compared with video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) approach, both of which have been already applied to these patients in minimally …
Glycoprotein in Immunotherapy Response and Efficacy Prediction of Lung Cancer
Immunotherapy has improved the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, but about 80% of patients do not respond at all (primary resistance), and some patients initially respond to immunotherapy, later relapse and develop disease progression (acquired resistance). So the objective of this research is to explore the sugar …
Rapid Autopsy Protocol for Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer
This is pilot study to establish a rapid autopsy program in Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) at the Indiana University Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center and outline the components necessary for tumor tissue collection.
Patient-Generated Health Data Collection During Chemoradiotherapy for Lung Cancer
This is an observational study involving the collection of patient-generated health data using an Apple Watch, a home pulse oximeter, and a smartphone during a course of proton beam radiotherapy for lung cancer. The study period over which this information is collected will range from the day of study enrollment …
