Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) is a form of high-precision radiotherapy playing a major role in patients diagnosed with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSLCL), especially when surgery cannot be performed. It is a non-invasive, well-tolerated treatment, with an excellent ability to control disease recurrence. However, in some patients, disease response …
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery has been recommended as the standard treatment for locally advanced and resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its efficacy remains to be improved. Drugs targeting PD-1/PD-L1 pathway have been proven to be effective for late-stage NSCLC, and anti-angiogenesis agents targeting VEGF (bevacizumab) has also …
Researchers want to learn if MK-1084, the study medicine, can treat advanced or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC. MK-1084 is a targeted therapy, which is a treatment that works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread. The goals of this study are to learn: About the safety of …
Lung malignant tumors are a significant health threat with high incidence and mortality rates, and molecular imaging is crucial for early diagnosis, staging, prognosis evaluation, and therapeutic efficacy assessment. 18F-FDG PET imaging is widely used, but has limitations. CDH3 is a promising target for tumor-targeted imaging, as it is only …
The goal of this multi-center randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the added value of needle based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE)-imaging to regular diagnostic bronchoscopic peripheral lung lesion analysis on the diagnostic yield in patients with peripheral pulmonary nodules suspect for malignancy. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: …
Osimertinib is a standard first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer harboring an epidermal growth factor receptor exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R mutation. Although osimertinib can provide effective disease control, most patients eventually experience disease progression, and the primary lung tumor may remain an important …
This prospective, single-center, interventional study is conducted in order to achieve a biological bank accompanied by clinical data. Blood samples, optional tumor tissue and fecal samples are collected, processed and banked for all the included subjects. Those samples are collected before the start of treatment, at the time of first …
This is a single-institution, open-labeled study using fingolimod (FTY720/Gilenya) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) who have progressed on chemo-immunotherapy. The study design will be a 6 patient safety lead-in with 2 cohorts of patients for efficacy analysis where fingolimod 0.5 mg …
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 …
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 …
