Robot surgeons put to the test in delicate chest operations
Disease control OngoingThis study is testing a new, single-port robotic surgery system for removing parts of the lung (for cancer or benign disease) or the thymus gland. Researchers want to see if surgeons can complete these delicate chest operations using only this robot, without having to switch to t…

New hope for rare thymus cancers: immune therapy trial
Disease control OngoingThis study is testing whether the immunotherapy drug avelumab is safe and can help control thymoma or thymic carcinoma that has returned or worsened after standard platinum-based chemotherapy. It involves 56 adults who will receive avelumab by IV infusion every two weeks until si…
