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. …
Pulmonary Rehabilitation in Advanced Lung Cancer Survivors
This study is for people who have previously been diagnosed with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Many people with advanced stage NSCLC have trouble breathing and feel tired. People may be eligible for this study if they have advanced stage NSCLC and feel short of breath some of …
Transthoracic vs Transbronchial Ablation for Lung Cancer
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of transthoracic versus transbronchial ablation in the treatment of early stage peripheral lung cancer.
Magnetic Resonance Guided Adaptive Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Lung Tumors in Ultracentral Location
MAGELLAN is a phase-I dose escalation trial that aims to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MR-guided SBRT of ultracentral lung Tumors (primary objective). Thus, a maximum of 38 patients with ultracentral lung tumors (overlap of the planning target volume with the proximal bronchial tree and/or esophagus) will receive …
MR-informed Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Treatment of Ultracentral Lung Tumours Utilising a Dedicated MR-simulator for Daily Adaptation Followed by CBCT-guided Treatment Delivery
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is the preferred treatment for inoperable early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and for operable cases when patients decline surgery, offering local control (LC) rates of 80-97%. SBRT is also used in oligometastatic cancer. However, its safety and efficacy for ultra-central lung tumours, near the proximal …
Alpha Radiation Emitters Device for the Treatment of Recurrent Lung Cancer
A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device for treatment of recurrent Lung Cancer .
Evaluation of IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab in Lung Cancer Surgery
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, optimal dose and imaging time of the investigational product, IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab for use as a near infrared imaging probe for image-guided surgery during lung cancer resection. IRDye800CW-nimotuzumab targets cancer cells over-expressing EGFR, allowing tumors to be visualized and may help surgeons …
Transarterial Chemoembolization for the Treatment of Lung Cancer
This phase II trial evaluates how well transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) works for treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer. TACE is a minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting chemotherapy directly into an artery that supplies blood to tumors, and then blocking off the blood supply to the tumors. Mitomycin (chemotherapy), …
Using ctDNA to Determine Therapies for Lung Cancer
This is a study to look at whether the presence of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) in the blood can help to predict whether giving adjuvant treatment after surgery can decrease the chance of the cancer coming back in people with lung cancer.
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 …
