This study is being done to learn more about a new medicine called PF-08634404. The study team wants to understand how well PF-08634404 works when given alone or with chemotherapy . Chemotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses medicines to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing. The study is for adults with Transformed Small Cell Lung Cancer (T-SCLC ). T SCLC is a rare lung cancer that happens when one type of lung cancer changes into a more aggressive type after treatment stops working. To join the study, participants must meet the following conditions: * Are aged 18 years or older * Diagnosed with T-SCLC and have not received treatment for this type of lung cancer (a single cycle of chemotherapy may be permitted) * Prior diagnosis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) * Have healthy organs based on medical tests and are in good physical condition After joining the study, adults will be given chemotherapy in addition to the study medicine. After this combination treatment is finished, the study medicine will be continued alone. Adults will receive the treatment through IV infusions (medicine given directly into a vein). All treatments will be done at clinical study sites, where a trained medical team will monitor adults during and after each visit.

NCT04738487
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is PD-L1 positive. * Metastatic means cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. * PD-L1 positive means that PD-L1 is found on the cancer cells. PD-L1 is a protein that can help the cancer hide from the body's immune system. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive vibostolimab and pembrolizumab live longer overall and without the cancer getting worse than people who receive pembrolizumab alone.
NCT06885697
Background: Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer that grows in the linings of the body; this can include the membranes that line the heart, lungs, and internal organs. Mesothelin (MSLN) is a protein that appears in high numbers in many tumors, including mesothelioma. Researchers are developing a new treatment that collects a person s own immune cells (T cells); the T cells are genetically modified to target and kill tumor cells with high levels of MSLN. Objective: To test a new treatment (TNhYP218 CAR T cells) in people with solid tumors including mesothelioma. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older with solid tumors including mesothelioma that returned or spread after standard treatment. Design: Participants will be screened. A small piece of tissue will be cut from a tumor (biopsy). The sample will be tested to see if it has enough MSLN. Participants will undergo leukapheresis: Blood will be taken from their body through a vein. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the T cells. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a different vein. Participant s T cells will be modified in a lab to produce TNhYP218 CAR T cells. Participants will enter the hospital. For 7 days, they will receive drugs to prepare their bodies for the study treatment. TNhYP218 CAR T cells will be administered into a vein. Participants will remain in the hospital for at least 7 more days. After discharge, participants will have follow-up visits for 5 years. These visits may include imaging scans, blood and heart tests, and a new biopsy. Long-term follow-up will continue another 10 years.

FEGALA is a comparative, multicenter, randomized, prospective, open-label study comparing the results observed at 3 months (± 15 days) on the EORTC QLQ-C30 scale in a group of patients with metastatic cancer followed on an outpatient basis and benefiting from the CONTINUUM+ CONNECT solution (with or without nursing support at home) versus comparable patients benefiting from conventional monitoring.
NCT04577599
Low-dose CT Screening has been shown in two large trials in the United States (NLST) and Europe (NELSON) to increase overall survival in subjects 55 years of age and older with a strong smoking history. Unfortunately, in both North Carolina (NC) and South Carolina (SC), subjects are found to have the above referenced smoking history prior to reaching the minimum age in these studies. This study is aimed at decreasing the minimum age of screening in a high-risk population.

NCT07125573
Brief Summary:Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has a wide range of applications, including the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer, and has gradually replaced traditional open thoracotomy. VATS must routinely employ single-lung ventilation techniques. During single-lung ventilation, mechanical injury, lung collapse, imbalance in the ventilation-perfusion ratio, ischemia-reperfusion, and other pathological physiological changes may occur, leading to the release of a large number of inflammatory factors, triggering local and systemic inflammatory responses,increasing the incidence of postoperative complications, and affecting patient outcomes. Additionally, most patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery experience acute postoperative pain. If acute postoperative pain is not adequately controlled, it may progress to chronic pain, affecting the quality of postoperative recovery. Currently, opioid medications are the primary drugs used to treat moderate to severe postoperative pain. However, adverse events associated with opioid medications may also affect the quality of postoperative recovery.The use of multimodal analgesia for postoperative pain management can control pain and reduce the need for opioid medications. Esketamine, a newly marketed intravenous anesthetic in China in recent years, is the dextrorotatory isomer of ketamine, and acts as a non-competitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. Compared to ketamine, esketamine has higher potency, faster recovery time, and fewer adverse effects. Some clinical studies have shown that administration of esketamine reduces the intensity of postoperative pain and decreases the need for postoperative analgesics. Research has found that esketamine reduces the consumption of opioid medications and hyperalgesia postoperatively. Additionally, studies have shown that esketamine administration improves recovery quality by alleviating postoperative pain. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is a selectiveα2 adrenergic receptor agonist with sedative and analgesic effects. Studies have shown that dexmedetomidine effectively reduces surgical inflammation, oxidative stress, and postoperative pain, thereby promoting postoperative recovery in surgical patients without increasing the risk of adverse reactions or complications. A meta-analysis indicated that dexmedetomidine administration alleviates postoperative pain and reduces postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Current evidence suggests that the use of dexmedetomidine improves postoperative recovery quality. However, the effects of esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine on postoperative recovery quality in patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery have not been reported. This study aims to investigate whether the combined administration of esketamine and dexmedetomidine can further improve postoperative recovery quality in patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.
NCT02769962
Background: EP0057 (formerly CRLX101) consists of a sugar molecule cyclodextrin linked to a chemotherapy drug called camptothecin. The combined molecule or "nanoparticle drug conjugate" travels through the blood. Once inside cancer cells, the chemotherapy drug is released from the molecule. Olaparib is a drug that may stop cancer cells from repairing the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage caused by chemotherapy. Researchers want to see how safe it is to give EP0057 and olaparib together and to see how well the combination treats a specific type of lung cancer called small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Objectives: To test the safety and maximum dose of EP0057 and olaparib together. To test how well they treat small cell lung cancer. Eligibility: Adults 18 and older with small cell lung cancer. Design: Participants will be screened with standard cancer care tests. Participants will get the 2 study drugs in 28-day cycles. EP0057 will be given every 2 weeks, through a small plastic tube in an arm vein. Olaparib will be taken by mouth twice a day most days. Participants will keep a pill diary. For Cycle 1, participants will have 3 visits. All other cycles will have 2 visits. At study visits, participants may have: * Blood and hair samples taken * History and Physical exam * Questions about health and side effects * Pregnancy test * Optional tumor biopsy where a piece of tumor is removed by needle after numbing the skin. * Computed tomography (CT) scan * Injection of EP0057 (twice per cycle) * Olaparib prescription Participants will have a follow-up visit 4 weeks after finish taking the drugs. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. They may have a tumor biopsy. The study team will call the patient every 3 months for follow up after completing the study treatment.

NCT07035587
This is a combined prospective and retrospective observational study aiming to validate a highly sensitive and specific blood-based method for the early diagnosis and post-treatment monitoring of multiple cancers. The study leverages a newly developed sequencing method to improve the detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood, focusing on enhancing sensitivity and specificity in clinical applications. The study targets patients with ovarian, lung, pancreatic, colorectal, esophageal, breast, kidney, bladder, and gastric cancer, as well as healthy controls with asymptomatic gallstones, benign polyps, or individuals undergoing routine medical screening. Blood samples will be analyzed for cell-free DNA (cfDNA), RNA, and protein profiles. A key objective is to determine how much the newly developed method increases the sensitivity and specificity of ctDNA detection, especially in early-stage cancers and minimal residual disease (MRD) after treatment. The method evaluates the variant allele frequency (VAF) of ctDNA to detect residual disease and track tumor dynamics. Serial blood sampling will be conducted before and after surgery or chemotherapy and during follow-up outpatient visits in cancer patients, while one-time sampling will be done for controls. Additionally, tissue biopsies collected during surgery will be used to analyze concordance between tumor-specific mutations and those found in ctDNA. Primary outcome measures include quantitative differences in ctDNA or RNA levels between cancer and control groups. Secondary outcomes assess the clinical correlation between changes in ctDNA VAF and patient outcomes such as recurrence and survival. Statistical tools including ROC curve analysis, Cox regression, and log-rank tests will be used to quantify performance. This study seeks to establish a clinically robust, non-invasive diagnostic tool that enables earlier detection and more precise treatment decisions, while potentially reducing physical, psychological, and socioeconomic burdens related to cancer care.
