'SOURCE - LUNG' Stereotactic Ablative Radiation Therapy Of UltRaCEntral LUNG Tumours (SOURCE Lung)
This is a phase II, non-randomised study examining the safety of treating high risk centrally located non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumours and single pulmonary oligometastatic lesions using radiation therapy (RT), for patients whose disease is inoperable. The method of delivering the RT in this study is image guided stereotactic …
Shared Decision Making on Radiation Dose for Lung Malignancies
A Patient Decision Aid (PtDA) is developed during a workshop in close collaboration with selected patients. The PtDA is subsequently used in the consultation between patient and physician to facilitate their shared decision on the dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for lung tumors located less than 1 cm …
PET/CT GUIDED BIOPSY VERSUS CT GUIDED BIOPSY IN EVALUATION OF SUSPECTED LUNG NEOPLASMS
Percutaneous CT guided biopsy is a well-established, standard sampling technique for suspected neoplastic lesions located in peripheral region in lung parenchyma. Inconclusive results on CT guided biopsy is substantially higher in large lung lesions which are prone to cause peripheral pneumonia, atelectasis and even regional necrosis, which are hard to …
Percutaneous Thermal Ablation in Lung Tumors
Lung cancer has a high incidence globally, with Egypt having it as the third most common and most lethal cancer, affecting 16.9% of males and 3.8% of females. While surgery is the preferred treatment for stage 1 non-small cell lung cancer due to positive outcomes, it carries significant risks due …
RealMove (Lung): Assessing Tumour Motion With Dynamic MRI
The study aims to develop an improved method to tailor the geometric safety margin when treating with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), to avoid tumour cells being missed during irradiation and to limit the exposure of normal tissues as much as possible. Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is assumed to represent …
Erlotinib Combined With Chemotherapy in TKI Resistant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers
Numerous evidences verified that erlotinib could dramatically improve the PFS and OS of non-small cell lung cancers who harbor EGFR sensitive mutations, however, primary or secondary resistance will be developed after TKI treatment, doctors do plenty of researches to overcome TKI resistance. FAST ACT-2 study present that, first line erlotinib …
Cancer of the Lung And SeneScencE - Prospective Cohort 1
The main objective is to identify and assess the predictive value of ageing and senescence biomarkers (methylome, telomeres, inflammageing) and senescent cells in tissues to improve prognosis assessment older patients with locally or locally-advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
NCLE-Cone-beam CT Navigation Bronchoscopy
The goal of this proof of principle observational study is to investigate in patients with suspected peripheral pulmonary nodules. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the concordance between CBCT navigation success (tool-in-lesion on CBCT spin) and nCLE tool-in-lesion confirmation (tool-in-lesion nCLE criteria observed). Participants scheduled …
Precision Lung Cancer Survivorship Care Intervention
The overarching goal of the Kentucky LEADS Collaborative Lung Cancer Survivorship Care program is to reduce the burden of lung cancer by offering an innovative survivorship care approach that improves lung cancer quality of life, overcomes lung cancer stigma, and helps survivors engage with care. The project involves a two-group …
Generation of Lung Tumor Organoids From Patients Undergoing Diagnostic Bronchoscopy
Interventional (low intervention level), non-pharmacological, prospective, feasibility pilot study of the preparation of organoids starting from lung tumor tissue collected during biopsies performed via diagnostic bronchoscopy according to standard clinical practice.
