An Evaluation of Dose-escalation for Intrathoracic Tumours
This is a pragmatic trial with patients randomized between standard of care palliative thoracic radiation therapy (RT) vs. hypofractionated, dose-escalated, esophageal-sparing (HD-ES) intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The investigators hypothesize that the use of advanced radiation planning techniques to optimize dose to esophagus will permit the safe delivery of a …

The main questions it aims to answer are: The 5-year disease-free survival …
Cognitive Screening in Lung Cancer Patients
This study aims to investigate the occurrence of cancer and adjuvant therapy-related cognitive impairment in patients with both NSCLC and SCLC. The primary endpoint measure will be the presence of cognitive impairment during the first year after enrollment through the administration of a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment.
Insights on Dissemination of Lung Cancer
In patients with resectable NSCLC treated with surgery alone or with surgery as part of a multimodal treatment; CTC, ctDNA, STAS, and lymph node micrometastasis levels will be evaluated to see if they are associated with recurrence patterns and long-term outcomes.
A Study of Lung Cancer Risk
The researchers are doing this study to learn more about factors that may increase the risk of lung cancer in people who have never smoked. This information may help predict which people who have never smoked may be more likely to get lung cancer.
