First seen Feb 17, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a surgery to remove part of the lung lining (partial pleurectomy) can help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life in people with advanced pleural mesothelioma that cannot be fully removed. About 30 participants will have the surgery and fill out symptom questionnaires for up to 2 years. The goal is to see if this procedure can make daily life better, even when a cure is not possible.
