NCT07460440
The purpose of this study is to test whether combining a unique analytical approach with changes in platelet RNA expression accurately diagnoses lung cancer. Using retrospective platelet transcriptomic data from 522 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC, the most common type of lung cancer), an approach that appears to accurately classify lung cancer has been developed. The study will build upon these retrospective analyses to prospectively recruit patients with newly diagnosed lung cancer, obtain platelet RNA samples from whole blood, and perform validation analyses. This research will also test whether this approach accurately distinguishes benign from malignant lung nodules.
NCT01629498
This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of image-guided, intensity-modulated photon or proton beam radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. This trial is testing a new way of delivering radiation dose when only the tumor receives dose escalation while the surrounding normal structure is kept at standard level. Photon beam radiation therapy is a type of radiation therapy that uses x-rays or gamma rays that come from a special machine called a linear accelerator (linac). The radiation dose is delivered at the surface of the body and goes into the tumor and through the body. Proton beam radiation therapy is a type of radiation therapy that uses streams of protons (tiny particles with a positive charge) to kill tumor cells. Both methods are designed to give a higher than standard dose of treatment to the tumor and may reduce the amount of radiation damage to healthy tissue near a tumor.
