Lung cancer clinical trials — recruiting now

A prospective, open-label, multi-cohort, non-randomized, multicenter Phase 2 study evaluating adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with TIL \[LN-144/LN-145 (lifileucel)\] in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors or TIL \[LN-144/LN-145 (lifileucel) and LN-145-S1\] as a single agent therapy.

This study is a prospective, single arm, phase II clinical trial. We plan to include 36 newly diagnosed ES-SCLC patients who meet the inclusion criteria and receive induction therapy (tislelizumab+EP regimen, 4-6 cycles). After completing the induction therapy, efficacy evaluation will be conducted. Patients with remission will receive tislelizumab combined with consolidation chest radiotherapy (TRT) sequentially. After the consolidation therapy is completed, they will receive tislelizumab maintenance therapy until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of informed consent occurs, whichever occurs first. The treatment duration will not exceed 2 years.

This clinical trial compares efficacy in postoperative pain management in thoracic surgery between erector spinae block versus liposomal bupivacaine injections.

Seagull is a phase Ⅱ study designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of MRD-guided adjuvant tislelizumab and chemotherapy vs adjuvant tislelizumab and chemotherapy in patients with resectable NSCLC

This study will utilize tissue and peripheral blood samples for proteomics analysis and establish a longitudinal proteomics cohort at multiple critical treatment time points to explore the research value of proteomics in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. The study includes key time points such as screening, postoperative efficacy prediction, and efficacy prediction after medication.

This phase II trial studies the effects of canakinumab in preventing lung cancer in patients who have high-risk pulmonary nodules. Canakinumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving canakinumab may prevent the development of lung cancer.

Definitive radiotherapy is one of the important methods for inoperable locally advanced lung cancer. The recommended dose for definitive radiotherapy is 60-70Gy, and the optimal dose is still uncertain. Residual lesion after radiotherapy is a risk factor for recurrence. High doses to targeted tumor areas can effectively improve the local control rate, while minimizing toxic side effects. The regression pattern of primary lesions in lung caner after radiotherapy has not been clarified. This study intends to retrospectively collect clinical data of lung cancer patients with definitive radiotherapy, and explore the pattern of tumor regression after radiotherapy. It will help optimize the radiotherapy plan for lung cancer, so as to improve the efficacy and prognosis.

The goal of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to compare efficacy and safety of CT-P51 and European Union (EU) approved Keytruda in combination with platinum pemetrexed chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated metastatic nsNSCLC.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of IBI3009 and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of IBI3009.

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding chemotherapy to immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus immunotherapy alone in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV lung cancer. 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. Chemotherapy drugs 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 and chemotherapy may help stabilize lung cancer.

Percutaneous CT guided biopsy is a well-established, standard sampling technique for suspected neoplastic lesions located in peripheral region in lung parenchyma. Inconclusive results on CT guided biopsy is substantially higher in large lung lesions which are prone to cause peripheral pneumonia, atelectasis and even regional necrosis, which are hard to be distinguished from tumor on CT images. Functional imaging guided biopsy like PET/CT guided biopsy identifies areas of highest concentration of neoplastic cells and provides accurate results. Only a few studies have been done regarding PET/CT guided biopsy and studies omparing PET/CT guided and CT guided percutaneous transthoracic lung biopsy are very few and this study would be a randomized trial comparing these diagnostic modalities in terms of diagnostic yield, diagnostic accuracy of sample and complications.

The lung is a privileged organ; blood does not reflect most lung processes well, if at all. Therefore, for population scale diagnostics, the investigator team is developing non-invasive portals to the lung, for eventual early detection/risk assessment and diagnostic purposes. However, large macromolecules are not likely suspended nor readily detected in the breath. In particular, genomic DNA in the breath condensate (EBC) is very sparse, and where present, generally highly fragmented, not readily amenable to sequencing based assessments of DNA somatic mutation burden or distribution. Because gDNA (and protein) is challenging to obtain non-invasively from EBC, the study team considered alternative surrogate lower airway specimens. Cough capture is rarely done, and the investigator team is in the process of optimizing its collection. Importantly, the team will be evaluating how much of coughed material is from saliva contamination. Additionally, analyzing material that is target captured by capturing deep lung extracellular vesicles (EVs) using immobilized CCSP/SFTPC antibodies targeting EVs from distal bronchiole Club and alveolar type 2 cells could circumvent the mouth contamination problem, leaving a non-invasive portal to the deep lung suitable for large molecules, and in turn suitable for myriad epidemiologic and clinical applications. The investigator team proposes (Aim 1) to pursue optimizing cough collection, and testing the efficacy and practicality of partitioning cough specimen for deep-lung specific extra-cellular vesicles (EVs). This cough specimen will be compared to that from invasively collected deep lung samples BAL/bronchial brushings, and to the potential contaminating mouth rinse, all from the same individuals. (Aim 2) The study team initially proposes to examine these cough specimens for somatic mutations by SMM bulk sequencing for single nucleotide variation, developed in the Vijg/Maslov labs. Finally, the investigator team will (Aim 3) test all airway specimens (cough, mouthwash and BAL) for lung surrogacy of cough, using proteins known to be specific for lung, as opposed to oral cavity/saliva, in the Sidoli/proteomics core. The investigator team envisions that the translational impact of non-invasively obtained DNA or protein markers could allow for more rapid acute clinical diagnoses, and facilitate precision prevention and/or early detection of many acute and chronic respiratory disorders, including lung cancer, asthma and COPD, acute and chronic infectious diseases, and indeed systemic disorders of inflammation and metabolism.

Cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) is present in the maternal blood from the early first trimester of gestation and makes up 5%-20% of the total circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in maternal plasma. Its presence in maternal plasma has allowed development of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis for single-gene disorders (SGD-NIPD). This can be performed from 9 weeks of amenorrhea and offers an early, safe and accurate definitive diagnosis without the miscarriage risk associated with invasive procedures. One of the major difficulties is distinguishing fetal genotype in the high background of maternal cfDNA, which leads to several technical and analytical challenges. Besides, unlike noninvasive prenatal testing for aneuploidy, NIPD for monogenic diseases represent a smaller market opportunity, and many cases must be provided on a bespoke, patient- or disease-specific basis. As a result, implementation of SGD-NIPD remained sparse, with most testing being delivered in a research setting. The present project aims to take advantage of the unique French collaborative network to make SGD-NIPD possible for theoretically any monogenic disorder and any family.

This study will treat patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations. This is the first study to test DZD6008 combined with sunvozertinib in patients, which will help to understand what type of side effects with the treatment. It will also measure the levels of two drugs in the body and preliminarily assess the anti-tumor activity with the combination treatment

Background: Some cancers have high levels of proteins called somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) on the surface of the tumors. These tumors can be in the lung, head and neck, digestive tract, kidneys, and in or near the adrenal glands. Researchers want to know if drug treatments that target SSTRs can help shrink these types of tumors. Objective: To test a study drug (\[212Pb\]VMT-Alpha-NET) in people with tumors that have SSTRs. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with tumors of the lung, kidneys, head and neck, digestive tract, or adrenal glands that have SSTRs. Their tumors must have spread to other organs and cannot be removed with surgery. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have imaging scans and a test of their heart function. A sample of tumor tissue may be collected if one is not already available. \[212Pb\]VMT-Alpha-NET is given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. The drug will be given on the first day of four 8-week cycles. Participants will stay in the hospital for a few nights after each dose. They will have blood tests once a week during each cycle. Some participants will also get a related study drug (\[203Pb\]VMT-Alpha-NET). They will receive this drug a few days before the first 2 cycles. At 4, 24, and 48 hours after each infusion, they will have whole body scans. These scans will show where the study drug went in their body. Follow-up visits will continue up to 6 years after the last treatment.

Lung cancer is the leading cancer in France in terms of mortality. The prognosis of the disease is closely correlated with the diagnostic stage and the majority of patients are diagnosed at a metastatic stage. The arrival of immunotherapy has made it possible to change the therapeutic paradigm by significantly improving the survival of metastatic patients. Despite this progress, only 20 to 30% of patients respond to immunotherapy. The search for predictive factors of response to or resistance to these drugs is of major importance for better patient selection. Among these factors, the intestinal microbiota appears to be closely correlated with the response to immunotherapy via the education of adaptive anticancer immunity. Thus, several bacterial species have been associated with patient survival or disease progression. Interestingly, the abundance of these same bacteria can be modulated by certain drugs co-prescribed with immunotherapy. These dysbiotic treatments or those leading to a significant modification of the composition of the intestinal microbiota could then modulate the response to immunotherapy and therefore patient survival. The objective of this study is therefore to objectify the impact of several therapeutic classes modifying the intestinal microbiota initiated in the 90 days preceding D1 of immunotherapy on the survival of patients with locally advanced (stage III-C) or metastatic (stage IV) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of Befotertinib combined with Bevacizumab as a first-line treatment for patients with EGFR mutation-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accompanied by brain or leptomeningeal metastases. It is a single-arm, open-label, prospective Phase II clinical trial aiming to explore the potential benefits of this combination therapy in improving intracranial progression-free survival (iPFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients will receive Befotertinib daily and Bevacizumab every three weeks until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The study seeks to address the unmet need for effective treatments in this challenging patient population.

This umbrella trial directed by next generation sequencing (NGS) includes patients with treatment-naive unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of the umbrella study is to evaluate the efficacy of induction NGS-directed targeted therapies followed by surgery for stage III NSCLC patients whose tumor harbors a rare mutation.
