LUNG NEOPLASMS

This study tested a new drug called brigimadlin (BI 907828) in 99 adults with advanced cancers of the bile duct, pancreas, lung, or bladder that have a specific genetic change (MDM2 amplification). Participants took the drug as a tablet once every 3 weeks. The goal was to see if …

This study tested a new way to treat lung tumors that have spread from other cancers. Doctors used a robotic bronchoscope to guide a microwave probe directly into the tumor and heat it to destroy the cancer cells. The study planned to enroll more people but was stopped early afte…

This study looked at whether analyzing sputum (phlegm) with automated cytometry, combined with low-dose CT scans and blood tests, could better detect lung cancer in workers heavily exposed to asbestos. The goal was to reduce false positives and improve early diagnosis. The trial …

This study looked at whether giving elderly patients a combination of acetaminophen and ibuprofen (Maxigesic) during and after minimally invasive lung surgery could reduce the risk of postoperative delirium (sudden confusion). The trial planned to compare the drug group to a plac…

This study looked at the genetics of people with multiple lung tumors (multifocal lung adenocarcinoma). Researchers collected tissue and blood samples from 100 participants during surgery to analyze their DNA. The goal was to see if genetic information could help guide treatment …

This study aimed to find genetic changes in lung tissue and blood that could predict how squamous cell lung cancer progresses. Researchers planned to collect samples from 200 patients undergoing lung procedures, but the study was stopped early with only 22 participants. No treatm…
