Testing the Addition of a Type of Drug Called Immunotherapy to the Usual Chemotherapy Treatment for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer ALCHEMIST Chemo-IO Study
This phase III ALCHEMIST trial compares the addition of pembrolizumab to usual chemotherapy versus usual chemotherapy for the treatment of stage IB, II, or IIIA non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the …
Randomised Evaluation of COVID-19 Therapy
RECOVERY is a randomised trial investigating whether treatment with either Lopinavir-Ritonavir, Hydroxychloroquine, Corticosteroids, Azithromycin, Convalescent plasma or Tocilizumab prevents death in patients with COVID-19.
A Home-based Physical Activity Programme for Patients With Advanced Interstitial Lung Diseases (iLiFE)
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) are a highly incapacitating group of chronic respiratory diseases, leading to disabling symptoms and impaired capacity to perform activities of daily living and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). It is known that people with ILD are highly inactive and sedentary, and in a severe stage of …
Connexin Genotypes in Cystic Fibrosis
Background: There is wide variety in lung disease phenotype for the delta F508 (homozygous) genotype. A leukocyte driven inflammation is most important for the pathogenesis of pulmonary disease in CF. Blood cytokines correlate negatively with pulmonary function in delta F508 homozygous patients. Gap junction proteins might be of importance for …
ELUCIDATE: Enabling LUng Cancer IDentification Using folATE Receptor Targeting
This is a phase 3, multi-center, single dose, open-label, exploratory study in suspected lung cancer patients scheduled to undergo endoscopic or thoracic surgery per CT/PET/MRI or other imaging based on standard of care. This study aims to assess the efficacy of OTL38 and Near Infrared Imaging (NIR) at identifying pulmonary …
cfDNA Methylation Assay for Clinical Evaluation of Patients With Stage IA Lung Cancer After Ablation Operation
The objective is to screen and monitor the efficacy of cfDNA methylation in patients with stage I lung cancer after ablation, to compare the similarities and differences of cfDNA methylation between surgical treatment and ablation in patients with stage I lung cancer, and to look for new indicators to assess …
Lung Surgery With Enhanced Recovery VS. Lung Surgery Without Enhanced Recovery
Objective: The adoption of Enhanced Recovery Surgery programs in lung resection is relatively recent with limited outcome data. This study aimed to determine the impact of an Enhanced Recovery Surgery pathway on short- term and long- term results in patients undergoing lung resection for primary lung cancer. Methods: A Randomized …
Doxapram Therapy in Preterm Infants (DOXA Trial)
Preterm infants often suffer from apnea of prematurity (AOP; a cessation of breathing) due to immaturity of the respiratory system. AOP can lead to oxygen shortage and a low heart rate which might harm the development of the newborn, especially the central nervous system. In order to prevent oxygen shortage, …
Bovine Reinforcement in Stomach, Colorectal and Lung Operation
The primary purpose of this prospective, randomized multicenter center study is to evaluate and compare the outcomes of stomach,colorectal and lung anastomoses reinforced with a bioabsorbable staple line reinforcement material compared with standard non-reinforced techniques with respect to the incidence of postoperative hemorrage rate, anastomotic leakage, if applicable.
Social Prescriptions and Micro-Learning to Improve Care for Cancer Patients and Their Support Persons
Optimal patient-centered care is often not being delivered to cancer patients, especially to vulnerable populations like those living in underserved rural areas. This body of work will develop and pilot test a multicomponent intervention approach designed to improve the care and outcomes of cancer patients and their support persons (SPs) …
