NCT03391869
This phase III trial studies how well nivolumab and ipilimumab works with or without local consolidation therapy in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Local consolidation therapy, such as surgery or radiation therapy, may improve survival outcomes in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. It is not yet known whether giving nivolumab and ipilimumab with local consolidation therapy works better than nivolumab and ipilimumab alone in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT07479095
This study evaluates whether a 7-day ketogenic dietary regimen before 2-\[18F\]FDG PET/CT can improve the diagnostic accuracy of imaging in adults with suspected or histologically confirmed lepidic-predominant lung adenocarcinoma (LPA). LPA frequently shows low glucose metabolism and may yield false-negative FDG PET/CT results. Approximately 30 participants will undergo a tailored ketogenic diet for 7 days before PET/CT. Imaging results will be compared with histopathology and additionally assessed against literature-reported diagnostic performance and a matched retrospective institutional cohort.
NCT05198830
This phase II trial tests whether TRC102 (methoxyamine hydrochloride) in combination usual care treatment comprised of pemetrexed, cisplatin or carboplatin, and radiation therapy followed by durvalumab works better than the usual care treatment alone to shrink tumors in patients with stage III non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). TRC102 is in a class of drugs called antineoplastic agents. It blocks the ability of a cell to repair damage to its deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. It may also help some anticancer drugs work better. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make DNA and may kill tumor cells. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving TRC102 in combination with usual care treatment may be more effective than usual care treatment alone in stabilizing and lengthening survival time in patients with stage III non-squamous NSCLC.
NCT01386385
This phase I/II partially randomized trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with radiation therapy, carboplatin, and paclitaxel and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy, carboplatin, and paclitaxel are more effective with or without veliparib in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT07481786
This is a phase 3, randomized, controlled clinical trial comparing two brain-directed treatment strategies for adult patients with extensive brain metastases from lung adenocarcinoma. The trial compares fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy combined with bevacizumab (FSRT-Bev) versus hippocampus-avoidant whole-brain radiotherapy with simultaneous integrated boost (HA-WBRT-SIB). The main objectives are to evaluate intracranial tumor control and preservation of neurocognitive function . Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either FSRT plus bevacizumab or HA-WBRT-SIB. In the experimental group, FSRT is delivered to visible brain tumors over 5 daily treatments (total 30 Gy, 6 Gy per fraction). Bevacizumab is given intravenously every 3 weeks for 4 cycles. In the control group, patients receive hippocampus-avoidant whole-brain radiation (25 Gy) with a simultaneous dose boost to metastatic lesions (40 Gy total) over 10 daily treatments.
NCT07219251
This research study will help our understanding of whether additional support for Veterans with lung cancer can improve their quality of life.
NCT07235280
This early phase I trial tests the safety and side effects of dapagliflozin given prior to surgery in patients with stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. Dapagliflozin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of diabetes and heart failure. It is an SGLT2 inhibitor. Stage I lung adenocarcinomas express significantly higher levels of the SGLT2 protein than other stages, and research suggests that SGLT2 inhibition improves lung cancer outcomes in patients with diabetes. In this study, dapagliflozin is being used off-label, which means it is being used for a condition that it was not originally approved for by the FDA. The investigational study drug is a neoadjuvant treatment, meaning the drug is given before surgery to try and help make the surgery more effective.
NCT07416058
The goal of this Phase II clinical trial (The PHOENIX Study) is to evaluate if the combination of QL1706 (Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab), bevacizumab, and chemotherapy can treat patients with TKI-refractory, driver-gene positive (e.g., EGFR, ALK, ROS1, RET, KRAS, BRAF, HER2), non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have high PD-L1 expression (TPS ≥50%). The main question\[s\] it aims to answer \[is/are\]: Does the quadruple combination therapy improve the Objective Response Rate (ORR) compared to historical chemotherapy data? What are the secondary efficacy outcomes, including Progression-Free Survival (PFS) and Overall Survival (OS)? If there is a comparison group: There is no concurrent control group (this is an open-label, multi-cohort study). Researchers will compare the treatment outcomes of the participants to historical control data (standard platinum-based chemotherapy) to see if the objective response rate (ORR) improves from a historical baseline of 29% to a target of 55%. Participants will: Receive induction therapy every 3 weeks for 4 cycles, consisting of intravenous infusions of QL1706, bevacizumab, pemetrexed, and platinum chemotherapy (cisplatin or carboplatin). Receive maintenance therapy every 3 weeks with QL1706 and bevacizumab for up to 2 years or until disease progression. Undergo regular tumor assessments (CT or MRI scans) to monitor disease status according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. Provide blood samples for safety monitoring and potential biomarker analysis.
NCT07341737
Second Life Therapeutics is developing SL-28, an allogeneic, non-genetically modified cell-based therapy for the treatment of advanced solid tumours. The company has recently demonstrated a novel, non-genetic approach to modulate immune cell activity through targeted manipulation of the Universal Receptive System. The purpose of this open label, multi-center clinical trial is to evaluate the anti-tumor activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics, single-agent SL-28 in patients with a diverse array of solid tumors. The study includes an initial Phase 1 dose escalation to determine recommended dose(s) for expansion of SL-28 as a monotherapy and Phase 2 expansion cohorts. The study will enroll patients with advanced solid tumours, including those who failed previous lines of chemo- and immunotherapies.
NCT02864992
This study looked at how effective the study drug (tepotinib) was at stopping the growth and spread of lung cancer. This study also measures a number of other things including safety of the study drug and the side effects, how body processes the study drug, or how the study drug affects your quality of life. The study also has an optional pharmacogenetic research part. Pharmacogenetic research is an important way to try to understand the role of genetics in human disease and how genes impact the effectiveness of drugs, because differences in genes can change the way a person responds to a particular drug.
NCT07273279
Lung cancer in never-smokers is increasingly recognized as a disease influenced by genetic susceptibility. Aldehyde-metabolizing enzymes, including the ALDH gene family and ADH1B, play key roles in detoxifying reactive aldehydes that can damage DNA and promote oxidative stress. In this study, we will examine whether ten selected genetic variants, nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across five ALDH family genes and one variant in ADH1B are associated with the risk of lung cancer and its major subtypes. Limited epidemiological evidence is currently available on the association between these aldehyde-metabolizing gene variants and lung cancer. This research aims to clarify their potential contribution to the development of lung cancer, particularly among never-smokers.
NCT05887492
The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to learn about TNG260, a CoREST inhibitor, in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors with a known STK11 mutation. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * the recommended dose for Phase 2 * to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination therapy * to determine the pharmacokinetics of TNG260 * to evaluate the initial antineoplastic activity Participants will receive study treatment until they experience an undesirable side effect, their disease progresses or until they withdraw consent.
NCT05558904
The phase I/II trial assess the safety and efficacy of a new positron emission tomography (PET) test for early diagnosis of lung cancer. This study uses PET and Me-4FDG new glucose tracer (alpha-methyl-4-deoxy-4-\[(18)F\]fluoro-D-glucopyranoside) designed specifically to determine glucose update into cells in the body. PET is a non-invasive imaging method used to detect cancer in patient. Me4FDG is a radioactive glucose tracer used in PET to locate cells in the body taking up glucose by SGLT2. SLGT2 is a sodium glucose transport protein that accumulates glucose in some cells, e.g. kidney cells and tumors. This study may help researcher determine how effective PET with ME4FDG tracer works in detecting lung cancer.
NCT02186847
This randomized phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy and radiation therapy given with or without metformin hydrochloride works in treating patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Metformin hydrochloride may shrink tumors and keep them from coming back. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy and radiation therapy is more effective when given with or without metformin hydrochloride in treating stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT07169903
This study is a prospective, multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to compare the efficacy of segmentectomy and lobectomy for invasive lung adenocarcinoma with a diameter of 2-3 cm and intraoperative frozen section-confirmed IASLC pathological new grade 1-2. The non-inferiority of segmentectomy is primarily evaluated by 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) after surgery, while secondary endpoints include pulmonary function preservation, perioperative complications, etc. With a planned enrollment of 587 patients over a 3-year recruitment period and a 5-year follow-up, this study aims to identify an optimized surgical approach.
NCT01737502
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of auranofin when given together with sirolimus and to see how well it works in treating patients with lung cancer that has spread or other places in the body and cannot be cured or controlled by treatment or has come back after a period of time during which the cancer could not be detected. Auranofin and sirolimus may stop or slow the growth of lung cancer.
NCT00334815
This clinical trial studies combination chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and bevacizumab in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, etoposide, and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of \[cancer/tumor\] cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) together with radiation therapy and bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
NCT04533451
This trial studies the side effects of pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in treating patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has come back (recurrent) and has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pemetrexed and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy may shrink the tumor in older patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT07002788
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive alternative to thoracotomy that emerged in the early 1990s, aiming to reduce surgical stress and postoperative pain. While VATS generally results in less pain than thoracotomy, patients may still experience significant discomfort. Effective pain control remains crucial in VATS to minimize postoperative complications, especially pulmonary and cardiac events, which can arise from inadequate ventilation and impaired sputum clearance due to pain. Various strategies have been developed to manage postoperative pain, with multimodal approaches-combining regional or peripheral blocks with systemic analgesics such as NSAIDs and adjuvants-now considered standard. Among regional techniques, serratus anterior plane (SAP) block and thoracic paravertebral block (PVB) are commonly used. SAP block targets the thoracodorsal, long thoracic, and T2-T9 spinal nerves between the latissimus dorsi and serratus anterior muscles, providing effective anterolateral chest wall analgesia. PVB targets intercostal nerves within the paravertebral space and has shown superior pain control and improved lung function compared to systemic opioids or intrapleural local anesthetics. At our center, both SAP and PVB are routinely used for postoperative analgesia in VATS procedures for patients with lung masses. Pain levels will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a reliable tool for evaluating both acute and chronic pain, unaffected by age or gender. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of SAP and PVB blocks in terms of postoperative pain, opioid requirements, and block-related complications in patients undergoing VATS under general anesthesia. The research is observational and will not alter routine clinical practices.
