What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Medical thoracoscopic cryotherapy combined with standard first-line therapy for advanced non-cell lung cancerOther

    Medical thoracoscopic cryotherapy: medical thoracoscopy biopsy hole insert bendable freezing probes, place the frozen probe placed in the center of the tumor at the top will be frozen carbon dioxide gas source pressure adjustment to the bar of 50-60 bar, tread down switch, foot pedal to start the probe, after about 30 s at the top of the probe to form a ice hockey, local tissue after frozen white, sometimes a small amount of bleeding; Fix the probe, loosen the pedal, and wait 30 seconds for automatic melting and rewarming (bleeding probability is low after full rewarming). Freeze 5 to 10 at a time.

    In addition, all patients were treated with standard first-line regimens according to guidelines of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scores.

  • Sequential intrathoracic injection of cisplatin/erythromycin combined with standard first-line therapy for advanced non-cell lung cancerOther

    The pleural effusion was fully drained and cisplatin 40mg/m2 was given, dissolved in 100mL 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution 100 mL, then injected into the pleural cavity and retained for 24 hours. Erythromycin was sequentially injected into the thorax to seal the pleural cavity.

    In addition, all patients were treated with standard first-line regimens according to guidelines of NSCLC and ECOG scores.

  • Standard first-line therapy for advanced non-cell lung cancer without intrathoracic treatmentOther

    Only intrathoracic tube was used to drain pleural effusion, and local pleural cavity was not treated.

    In addition, all patients were treated with standard first-line regimens according to guidelines of NSCLC and ECOG scores.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. pleural progression free survival, P-PFS

    According to Millar's criteria, P-PFS was defined as absence of pleural effusion lasting more than 4 weeks; Or an order of magnitude reduction in pleural effusion (such as large to medium volume, or medium to small volume) lasting more than 4 weeks; Or pleural effusion with no significant change, lasting more than 4 weeks.

    Measured: up to 2 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Total effective rate

    Complete remission (CR) : pleural effusion disappeared and lasted for more than 4 weeks; Partial remission (PR) : reduction of pleural effusion by 1 order of magnitude (e.g., large to medium volume, or medium to small volume) for more than 4 weeks; CR+PR was denoted as the total effective rate.

    Measured: up tp 2 months

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: up to 2 months

  3. modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale

    The modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC) is used to assess degree of baseline functional disability due to dyspnea. The minimum and maximum values are 0 and 4, and higher scores mean a worse outcome. Score 0 means dyspnea only with strenuous exercise; score 1 means dyspnea when hurrying or walking up a slight hill; score 2 means walks slower than people of the same age because of dyspnea or has to stop for breath when walking at own pace; score 3 means stops for breath after walking 100 yards (91 m) or after a few minutes; score 4 means too dyspneic to leave house or breathless when dressing.

    Measured: up to 2 months

  4. Overall survival time

    Measured: up to 2 months

  5. Adverse reactions

    Measured: up to 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Medical thoracoscopic cryotherapy combined with standard first-line therapy for advanced non-cell lung cancer, Sequential intrathoracic injection of cisplatin/erythromycin combined with standard first-line therapy for advanced non-cell lung cancer and Standard first-line therapy for advanced non-cell lung cancer without intrathoracic treatment in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Qianfoshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Qian Qi, doctor (8613706380314, qiqianqlh@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

pleural progression free survival, P-PFS (time frame: up to 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Nov 2023.
