Adding filtering to improve donor lungs
This trial tests whether adding a special filtering treatment (hemodiafiltration) during the lung reconditioning process (EVLP) can help improve marginal donor lungs before transplant. It aims to see if more lungs can be used for patients waiting for a transplant.
ViennaAges Any age - NCT07105176RecruitingPhase 1
TIL therapy for advanced lung cancer after first-line treatment
This trial tests a new treatment using your own immune cells (called TILs) to fight advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The cells are taken from a tumor, multiplied in a lab, and given back to you to help your body attack the cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07096882RecruitingPhase 1
