NCT00444223
RATIONALE: Fluorine F 18 FEQA may be an effective radioactive drug to use with positron emission tomography (PET) scans. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the use of fluorine F 18 FEQA in patients with stage III or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer and in healthy participants.
NCT00450567
RATIONALE: Measuring changes in glucose metabolism in patients with cancer may help doctors predict how patients respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying glucose metabolism in patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with targeted therapy and chemotherapy.
NCT00024076
RATIONALE: Radiofrequency ablation uses high-frequency electric current to kill tumor cells. CT-guided radiofrequency ablation may be effective treatment for lung cancer. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of radiofrequency ablation in treating patients who have refractory or advanced lung cancer.
NCT02926638
This randomized phase II/III compares rilotumumab when given together with erlotinib hydrochloride against erlotinib hydrochloride alone in treating patients with stage IV squamous cell lung cancer that has come back after previous treatment. This is a sub-study that includes all screened patients positive for the met proto-oncogene (MET)/hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) biomarker. HGF can interact with MET and can cause tumor cells to grow more quickly. Rilotumumab may decrease the activity of HGF and may be able to shrink tumors. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving rilotumumab with erlotinib hydrochloride works better than erlotinib hydrochloride alone (standard treatment) in treating squamous cell lung cancer.
