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 …
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the safety and efficacy of cryoablation combined with carlizumab and apatinib in multiple primary lung cancer without known driver genes.Main included population criteria:Clinical and pathological diagnosis of multiple primary lung cancer;Three pulmonary nodules were diagnosed initially or before surgery, without lymph …
This phase II trial studies how well osimertinib works in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation that is stage IIIB-IV or has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the …
This study aims to validate a novel preoperative assessment strategy using three-dimensional (3-D) computed tomography (CT) reconstruction and virtual resection simulation. The goal is to accurately predict postoperative pulmonary function in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) anatomical resection. Accurate prediction of postoperative lung …
The mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to oncogene-targeted therapy can be determined from tumor tissue or tumor cell lines derived from available archival samples and/or from standard-of-care re-biopsy upon suspected tumor progression.
Create a living biobank of PDOs from Stage I-III lung cancer patients.
In this pilot study the investigators propose the intraoperative use of a high-resolution PET-CT imaging system which can assess resection margins and lymph node status in the operating room. This will allow for a faster and stepwise assessment (estimated to be under 10 minutes per specimen), enabling the surgeon to …
Aim 1: Culturally adapt the TELESCOPE intervention for Hispanics. Using iterative qualitative feedback from a study-specific Community Advisory Board, focus groups, and interviews with community members, the investigators will culturally adapt the TELESCOPE intervention for Hispanics at high risk for lung cancer. Aim 2: Assess the feasibility, acceptability, and implementation …
The goal of this observational validation study is to determine the best implementation of fluoroscopic and CT ventilation imaging in patients having non-stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (non-SABR) radiotherapy for stages II-IV lung cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: Assess the dosimetric variation in functional avoidance radiation therapy …
This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial aiming to reduce shoulder pain after lung surgery. Shoulder pain on the surgical side is common after video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy, affecting about 20%-58% of patients. It can limit coughing, moving, and sleeping, and may delay recovery. The pain may come from two …
