Lung Cancer Paid Clinical Trials in Maryland

Background: Cancer has a major impact in the United States and across the world. In 2015, over 1.5 million new cases of cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. Researchers want to study samples from people with cancer or a pre-malignant condition. They hope to develop more effective treatments. Objective: To better understand the biology of malignancies and why certain cancers respond differently to treatment. Eligibility: Adults at least 18 years old with cancer or a pre-cancerous condition. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Their diagnosis will be confirmed by the NCI Laboratory of Pathology. Participants will send tissue blocks or slides from their original tumor biopsy. At least once, participants will have a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants may have the following tests. They may have them more than once: Apheresis. A needle in one arm removes blood. Blood is run through a machine and the sample cells are taken out. The rest of the blood is returned by a needle in the other arm. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. The hipbone will be numbed. A needle will be put into the hipbone. Bone marrow will be taken out through the needle. Piece of cancer tissue taken by a needle and syringe. Computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) scan or ultrasound to help locate their tumor. For the scans, they lie in a machine that takes pictures. A small piece of skin removed. Participants will be contacted by phone once a year to find out how they are doing. Read Less

Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be hard to treat and is often fatal. People with NSCLC commonly have changes in the bacteria that populate their lungs. These bacterial changes may aid tumor growth. Researchers want to find out if treating the bacteria, too, can help cancer treatment work better. Objective: To test 2 inhaled antibiotics (aztreonam and vancomycin), combined with a standard cancer treatment, in people with NSCLC. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with NSCLC that has returned or progressed after treatment and cannot be treated with surgery. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They may blow into a machine to test how well their lungs work. They will have imaging scans. They may need to have a small piece of tissue cut from their tumor (biopsy). Participants will be treated in six 21-day cycles. They will visit the clinic to receive a drug for cancer treatment on the first day of each cycle. This drug will be administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. The 2 antibiotic drugs will be in the form of a fine mist that can be inhaled. Participants use a device to take these drugs at home. They will inhale aztreonam up to 3 times a day and vancomycin 1 or 2 times a day. They will take these drugs during only 3 of the treatment cycles. Biopsies and other tests will be repeated halfway through and after the study treatment. Follow-up visits will continue for 1 year after study treatment. Read Less

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC refers to a type of lung cancer that has spread from the lungs to nearby tissues or other body parts. People with advanced NSCLC may have changes in certain proteins like EGFR and HER2 that cause uncontrolled cell growth and increased spread of cancer. In this study, participants will be healthy and will not benefit from taking the study treatment, BAY2927088. However, the study will provide information about how to test BAY2927088 in future studies on people with advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutations. BAY2927088 is under development for the treatment of advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutations. It is expected to work against these changed proteins, which might slow down the spread of cancer. Researchers think that BAY2927088 might affect an enzyme (called CYP3A4) that breaks down drugs in the body. This might make the effects of some drugs weaker or stronger. Midazolam is a drug that is broken down by CYP3A4. By studying the level of midazolam in the blood, researchers can understand how BAY2927088 might influence this enzyme's activity. The main purpose of this study is to find out how BAY2927088, taken as a single dose and as multiple doses, affects the level of another drug, called midazolam, in the blood of healthy participants. To achieve this goal, researchers will measure the following for midazolam when participants take it with or without BAY2927088: Area under the curve (AUC): a measure of the total amount of midazolam in participants' blood over time Maximum observed concentration (Cmax): the highest amount of midazolam in participants' blood The study will have 3 treatment periods: Period 1 (Day 1 to Day 2): On Day 1, participants will take midazolam Period 2 (Day 3 to Day 4): On Day 3, participants will take midazolam with BAY2927088 Period 3 (Day 5 to Day 15): On Days 5 to 13, participants will take BAY2927088 On Day 14, participants will take midazolam with BAY2927088 Participants will be part of the study for about 8 weeks with at least 3 visits to the study clinic. Participants will visit the study clinic: More than/at least once, within 2 to 28 days before the treatment starts Once on the day before the treatment starts and will stay in the clinic until Day 15 of the treatment Once, within 7 to 10 days after they finish treatment for a health checkup During the study, the doctors and their study team will: do physical examinations collect blood samples from the participants to measure the blood levels of midazolam and of BAY2927088 check participants' health by performing tests such as blood and urine tests, and checking heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatment. Read Less

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with specific genetic changes called epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations. Advanced NSCLC refers to a type of lung cancer that has spread from the lungs to nearby tissues or other body parts. People with advanced NSCLC may have changes in certain proteins, like EGFR and HER2, that cause uncontrolled cell growth and increased spread of cancer. In this study, participants will be healthy and will not benefit from taking the study treatment, BAY2927088. However, the study will provide information about how to test BAY2927088 in future studies with people who have advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutations. BAY2927088 is under development for the treatment of advanced NSCLC with EGFR or HER2 mutations. It is expected to work against these changed proteins, which might slow down the spread of cancer. The absorption of BAY2927088 into the blood is dependent on the amount of acid present in the stomach. Esomeprazole is a medicine which is used in the treatment of heartburn and excessive acid in the stomach. Both food and esomeprazole may change the amount of acid present in the stomach. The main purpose of this study is to find out how food and esomeprazole may affect the absorption of BAY2927088 into the blood of healthy participants. For this, researchers will measure the levels of BAY2927088 in participants' blood when it is given with or without food as well as with or without esomeprazole. Researchers will then calculate the following: Area under the curve (AUC): a measure of the total amount of BAY2927088 in participants' blood over time Maximum observed concentration (Cmax): the highest amount of BAY2927088 in participants' blood The study will have 4 treatment periods: - Periods 1 to 3 (Day 1 to Day 9): All participants will take BAY2927088 with a low-fat meal, with a high-fat meal, and on an empty stomach, but in a different order, over the 3 study periods. Each period will last for 3 days and BAY2927088 will be given on the first day of each period. On Day 9, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. - Period 4 (Day 10 to Day 14): On Days 10 and 11, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. On Day 12, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. After 1 and a half hours, participants will take low-fat meal and BAY2927088. On Day 13, participants will take esomeprazole on an empty stomach. Participants will be in this study for about 8 weeks with 3 visits to the study clinic. Participants will visit the study clinic: at least once, 2 to 28 days before the treatment starts, to confirm they can take part in this study once on the day before the treatment starts and will stay in the clinic until Day 14 of the treatment once, 7 to 10 days after last dose of BAY2927088, for a health check-up During the study, the doctors and their study team will: do physical examinations collect blood samples from the participants to measure the levels of BAY2927088 check participants' health by performing tests, such as blood and urine tests, and checking heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study.

Global, Phase 3, randomized, multicenter, open-label study evaluating the efficacy and safety of furmonertinib (firmonertinib) at 2 dose levels (160 mg once daily [QD] and 240 mg QD) compared to platinum-based chemotherapy in previously untreated patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutations. A target of approximately 375 patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to treatment with furmonertinib 240 mg QD, furmonertinib 160 mg QD, or platinum-based chemotherapy. Read Less

This study will compare the effectiveness of osimertinib alone with the combination of osimertinib and chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed) in people with metastatic lung cancer that has a change (mutation) in the gene EGFR. Osimertinib alone is the usual treatment for metastatic EGFR-mutant lung cancer. Researchers think adding chemotherapy to osimertinib could possibly add to the anticancer effects of the usual treatment and help stop cancer from growing or spreading. Read Less
