Lung cancer clinical trials in Philadelphia

The PROACT LUNG study is a prospective multi-center observational study to validate a blood-based test for the early detection of lung cancer by collecting blood samples from high-risk participants who will undergo a routine, standard-of-care screening Low-Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT).

Study STX-721-101/PFL-721CI101 is an open label, Phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) exposure, and preliminary antitumor activity of STX-721/PFL-721 in participants with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) carrying EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) mutations.

The purpose of this first-in-human study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of AMG 410 when administered alone or in combination with other agents in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring KRAS alterations. This is a dose-escalation study in which participants will be assigned to multiple dose levels (DLs) of AMG 410, either as monotherapy or in combination with other agents, followed by expansion cohorts. The goal is to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)-the highest dose with acceptable safety and manageable side effects-or the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of AMG 410 in adult participants with KRAS-altered advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

This study, known as LUNAR-2, aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of using TTFields, delivered by the NovoTTF-200T device, concomitantly administered with pembrolizumab and platinum-based chemotherapy for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The primary goals of the study are to assess overall survival and progression-free survival. Secondary objectives include analyzing outcomes based on the specific histology (subtype) of the lung cancer.

The first phase of this study was an open label, randomized pilot study. Enrollment for this phase is now complete. The second phase is a single arm phase 1 safety study. Patients planned to undergo precision hypofractionated radiation to all sites of oligoprogression will receive vancomycin for 1 week before RT and for 1 month after start of RT, and asked to provide stool and blood samples as outlined in the Safety Trial study table.

Phase I Study, a master protocol to investigate TCR-Engineered T cells recognizing KRAS mutations in adult subjects with Unresectable, Advanced, and/or Metastatic Solid Tumors.

The primary objective for dose exploration and dose expansion is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of tarlatamab in combination with AB248. The primary objective for dose exploration only is to determine the recommended dose for expansion and/or maximum tolerated combination dose (MTCD) of AB248 in combination with tarlatamab.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate FMC-376 in participants with advanced solid tumors with KRAS G12C mutations. This clinical trial will be conducted in 3 parts: Phase 1A (Dose Escalation), Phase 1B (Dose Expansion), and Phase 2 (Cohort Expansion). Multiple dose levels in participants with advanced solid tumors will be evaluated.

The primary purpose of the study is to assess how well amivantamab in combination with lazertinib or in combination with chemotherapy works (antitumor activity) in participants with epidermal growth factor receptor mutated (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC; that is one of the major types of lung cancer).

The goal of this pragmatic trial is to learn if telehealth strategies can increase shared decision-making (SDM) for lung cancer screening (LCS). It will also learn about the equity of these strategies by conducting non-inferiority analysis by race and sex. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does patient outreach using synchronous and asynchronous telehealth strategies increase completion of SDM visits for LCS? 2. Is the effectiveness of these telehealth strategies similar by race and sex? The study uses a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) design and includes two stages of interventions. The first stage of intervention includes direct patient outreach with an invitation to schedule either a 1) telehealth SDM visit or 2) telehealth or in-person SDM visit. Participants that do not respond to the first stage interventions receive a text message reminder encouraging SDM visit completion with or without digital care coordination.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of EVOLVE104 in participants with advanced urothelial and squamous cell carcinomas who have previously taken standard treatment options, have declined or have been ineligible for treatment with these medications. Participants with advanced or metastatic cancer who meet all eligibility criteria may be eligible to participate in the study.

To Determine if SAbR improves survival over SR in High Risk Operable Stage I NSCLC

This study is being done to answer the following question: Can the chance of lung cancer growing or spreading be lowered by adding targeted radiotherapy to the usual combination of drugs? This study is being done to find out if this approach is better or worse than the usual approach for lung cancer. The usual approach is defined as the care most people get for non-small cell lung cancer.

The COPD in LCS Registry will identify and characterize individuals who have functional or radiographic evidence of COPD and are receiving lung cancer screening. Clinical information will be obtained from study participants including symptom burden, lung cancer risk, spirometry, imaging characteristics, and peripheral blood eosinophils.

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.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an investigational drug CP-383 works to treat advanced cancer. It will also learn about the safety of CP-383. The main questions if aims to answer are: * Does CP-383 slow or stop the growth of cancer in patients with advanced cancer * What medical problems do participants have when taking CP-383 Researchers will test CP-383 in all kinds of cancers at various dose levels to determine what the best dose is to study further. Researchers will also see if certain cancers that have gene mutations respond better to CP-383 Participants will: * Take CP-383 every day by mouth until the researcher learns whether CP-383 is helping slow or reduce the cancer growth * Visit the clinic weekly for the first 6 weeks for checkups and tests * Visit the clinic every 3 weeks thereafter for checkups and tests

Participants will complete questionnaires before surgery, between 2 to 4 weeks after surgery, and 6 months after surgery.

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, FIH study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), PK/PD, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of ISM6331 in participants with advanced or metastatic mesothelioma or other Advanced solid tumors. The study consists of two parts, a dose escalation part (Part 1) and a dose selection expansion part (Part 2).

Research indicates that perceived stigma within medical encounters is prevalent and problematic for lung cancer patients' well-being and quality of cancer care. Promoting empathic communication appears to be a potentially effective intervention target to help reduce patients' perceptions of stigma within clinical encounters; however, no formal trainings exist that focus on teaching empathic communication to oncology care providers (OCPs). Building upon favorable findings from a prior R21 (R21CA202793) and the importance of developing interventions to address lung cancer stigma, our goal is to conduct a national trial of empathic communication skills (ECS) training to facilitate improvements in the medical and psychosocial care of patients through de-stigmatizing interactions with OCPs for patients diagnosed with lung cancer.

This is an open-label, phase 1, dose escalation and dose expansion study to determine safety and tolerability, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose and / or recommended phase 2 dose of LNCB74 in participants with advanced solid tumors.
