NCT03062800
The study for innovative strategies is warranted in the treatment of advanced non-squamous NSCLC with epidermal growth factor receptor wild-type or unknown mutation status because the outcomes remain unsatisfactory for most patients. Maintenance treatment after first-line chemotherapy is a very interesting strategy that has been largely investigated in the last years. This study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of thalidomide in combination with chemotherapy and as maintenance treatment in patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC.
NCT03188562
The aim of the study is prospective comparison of diagnostical and therapeutical efficiency between different methods of mediastinal lymph node preoperative staging in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Two hundred patients with histologically/cytologically confirmed clinical stage primary I-IIIA NSCLC will be included. The patients must be fit enough to undergo at least pulmonary lobectomy. Computer Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET/CT) will be performed in all patients. Subsequently, the patients without evidence of dissemination will be randomized to transbronchial and transesophageal endoscopic ultrasound-guided needle aspiration ( EBUS-TBNA, EUS-NA) or Transcervical Extended Mediastinal Lymphadenectomy (TEMLA). The patients with N3 will be referred to definitive oncological treatment, the patients with N2 metastases will be referred to neoadjuvant treatment and the patients without N2/3 metastases will be operated on. The operative procedure will include at least lobectomy with complete lymphadenectomy, with open or video-assisted (VATS) technique. The patients undergoing sublobar resection will be excluded from this study. Final analysis will include comparison of the diagnostic yield and 5-year survival between the EBUS/EUS and the TEMLA arms.
