A Phase 2 Study Adding Ascorbate to Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy for NSCLC

This clinical trial evaluates adding high-dose ascorbate (vitamin C) to a standard therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. The standard therapy is radiation therapy combined with carboplatin and paclitaxel (types of chemotherapy). All subjects will receive high-dose ascorbate in addition to the standard therapy.

A Study of AZD2936 Anti-TIGIT/Anti-PD-1 Bispecific Antibody in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC

This is a Phase I/II study designed to evaluate if experimental anti-TIGIT/anti-PD-1 bispecific antibody rilvegostomig (AZD2936) is safe, tolerable and efficacious in participants with Advanced or Metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.

A Study to Compare Tissue and Liquid Biopsies in People With Different Types of Cancer

In study, liquid biopsy samples will be obtained from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) including Squamous cell carcinoma, Adenocarcinoma and large cell carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients who undergo treatment according to established standards of care (SoC) at the University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein (UKSH). This study will observe the overall Variant Allele Frequency (VAF) of circulating tumour Desoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) levels over the patient therapeutic treatment course and will correlate these findings with tumour response as well as Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS)mutation status.

Acupuncture for Enhancing Immunotherapy in Advanced NSCLC：a Pilot Study

This multicentre, randomized controlled trial evaluates the effect and safety of integrating acupuncture with immunotherapeutic sensitization in treating NSCLC. Participants will be randomly assigned to undergo either acupuncture or sham acupuncture concurrent with the initial four cycles of standard ICIs combined with chemotherapy.

A Post Approval Commitment Study on Tabrecta® (Capmatinib) in South Korea

This is an open label, prospective, multicenter, non-comparative study to assess the safety and effectiveness of Tabrecta® (Capmatinib) in real world setting. Also, this study is to fulfill the regulatory requirements as part of the RMP (Risk Management Plan) for Tabrecta® (Capmatinib), as requested by Korea Health Authority, MFDS (Ministry of Food and Drug Safety).

The Gut Microbiome and Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy in Solid Tumors

The microbiome has the potential to serve as a robust biomarker of clinical response to immunotherapy. Additionally, microbial manipulation, through diet, exercise, prebiotics, probiotics, or microbially-derived metabolites, may prove to be beneficial in promoting anti-tumor immune responses. However, large prospective studies in humans with longitudinal sample collection and standardized methods are needed to understand how microbiota and their byproducts affect cancer therapies, particularly among patients undergoing identical therapy but experiencing different outcomes. The proposed observational study builds upon these hypotheses by proposing a large cohort design to further assess the associations between the gut microbiota (composition and function), host immune system, and ICI treatment efficacy across multiple cancer types.
