NCT01721759
The purpose of the study is to assess the objective response rate (change in tumor size from baseline) in patients with advanced or metastatic squamous cell nonsmall-cell lung cancer treated with Nivolumab (BMS-936558) after failure of 2 prior systemic regimens
NCT05393154
The aim of the study is to assess the performance of Aquyre Biopsy Scanner technology (the FDA class I medical device) at determining if tissue from the lymph nodes and lung nodules, taken during a bronchoscopy procedure, is adequate for a diagnosis. The study will assess how well the Aquyre Biopsy Scanner can differentiate between tissue samples that meet certain requirements that allow for further diagnostic analysis and samples that do not.
NCT02900664
The purpose of this study was to combine the PDR001 checkpoint inhibitor with each of four agents with immunomodulatory activity to identify the doses and schedule for combination therapy and to preliminarily assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacological and clinical activity of these combinations.
NCT00698815
This randomized phase II trial studies pemetrexed disodium and sunitinib malate to compare how well they work when given alone or together as second-line therapy in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pemetrexed disodium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether pemetrexed disodium and sunitinib malate are more effective when given alone or together in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01391143
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of MGA271 when given by intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with refractory cancer. The study will also evaluate how long MGA271 stays in the blood and how long it takes for it to leave the body, what is the highest dose that can safely be given, and whether it may have an effect on tumors.
NCT00372073
A phase 2 study to evaluate efficacy of oral seliciclib in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT00730639
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of MDX-1106 in patients with certain types of cancer. Another purpose is to determine how MDX-1106 is absorbed and distributed within the body, and how it's eventually eliminated.
NCT02871115
The purpose of this research study is to address the challenge of medication management for older patients undergoing treatment for cancer. The sponsor of this protocol is the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center who is providing funding for this research study.
NCT01799135
This is a pilot study. A pilot study is done with a small number of participants to see if a technique works before using it in a larger research study. This pilot study is evaluating a special kind of MRI scan of the lungs called dynamic contrast enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI). DCE-MRI can demonstrate how much blood flows through the tumor and lungs and tell us how active the tumor is, as well as how functional the lungs are. As part of this scan, participants will receive an intravenous (into the blood via puncture of a vein) injection of gadolinium contrast, a dye that helps us see the tumor and lung tissue more clearly. Gadolinium is approved by the FDA and is routinely used for MRI. The goal of the study is to determine whether DCE-MRI can provide images of the response of the tumor and the normal lung tissue to SBRT and to potentially hep improve treatment-planning methods for patients treated with SBRT in the future. We will also study how the final DCE-MRI scan compares with another form of imaging, called 4-dimensional computed tomography (4D-CT), that looks at the breathing capacity of the lungs. Although we are researching the usefulness of DCE-MRI in early stage non-small cell lung cancer treated with SBRT in this study, DCE-MRI with the dye injection is not an experimental technology and is routinely used in the clinic for other indications. The 4D-CT scan is also not experimental and is used for radiation planning and imaging of the lungs. The SBRT you will receive will be standard treatment and will not be affected by your participation in this study or by these DCE-MRI scans. That means that the findings on the scan will not be used to alter your planned treatment in any way. Additionally, participants will undergo the routine work-up prior to SBRT and surveillance studies after treatment is complete.
NCT02387216
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of MM-121 plus docetaxel is more effective than docetaxel alone in regards to PFS in patients with heregulin-positive NSCLC.
NCT03131206
This research trial is studying a drug called alectinib as a possible treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic alterations known as ALK or RET rearrangements, and thyroid cancer with RET rearrangements.
NCT00960297
The rationale for this multicenter, phase II trial is to examine the impact of carboplatin/paclitaxel with bevacizumab in the preoperative treatment of patients with stage IB (\> 4.0 cm), II, and select stage III NSCLC. If this novel regimen proves to be safe and active in this setting, this would provide rationale for further investigation in a larger, prospective, randomized setting.
NCT00456261
This trial will look at 2 different drug combinations that have well known safety profiles and are known to be active against non small cell lung cancer and combine them with bevacizumab, an experimental drug that has shown effectiveness when added to other drug combinations for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The primary objective in this study is to see how well this combination of drugs keeps the cancer from getting worse in this elderly population of non-small cell lung cancer patients.
NCT03322566
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus epacadostat with platinum-based chemotherapy versus pembrolizumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy plus placebo as first-line therapy in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT03836352
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of DPX-Survivac and low dose cyclophosphamide with pembrolizumab in subjects with selected advanced and recurrent solid tumours.
NCT01655225
The purpose of this study is to find a recommended dose level and schedule of dosing LY3023414 that can safely be taken by participants with advanced or metastatic cancer. The study will also explore the changes to various markers in blood cells and potentially tumor cells. Finally, the study will help document any antitumor activity this drug may have. In Part A of this study, participants with advanced/metastatic cancer (including lymphoma) will receive increasing doses of LY3023414. In Part B, LY3023414 will be explored in different types of cancer, including breast and lung cancer, lymphoma and mesothelioma.
NCT03794544
Study D9108C00002 (NeoCOAST) is a platform study assessing the effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant durvalumab alone or in combination with novel agents in participants with resectable, early-stage (Stage I \[\>2cm\] to IIIA) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT02474355
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of single agent AZD9291 in a real world setting in adult patients with advanced or metastatic, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation-positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), who have received prior EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy.
NCT02947165
To characterize the safety and tolerability of NIS793 as single agent and in combination with PDR001 and to identify recommended doses for future studies.
