Brief Title: Phase 1 Trial of Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Injection of Cisplatin for Stage IV Lung Cancer
Official Title: Phase 1 Trial of Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Injection of Cisplatin for Stage IV Lung Cancer
Study ID: NCT04311762
Brief Summary: The goal of the study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial injection (EBUS-TBNI) of cisplatin for Stage IV lung cancer.
Detailed Description: Multiple studies have demonstrated feasibility and safety of delivering cisplatin directly into lung tumors using endobronchial ultrasound guided-transbronchial needle injection (EBUS-TBNI). This technique relies on the use of a bronchoscope with an integrated ultrasound transducer allowing real-time visualization of, and delivery of cisplatin into, tumors lying in proximity to the central airways. Prior work has utilized this technique to treat loco regional recurrence in a previously radiated field. The goal of the current study is to identify the initial dose for intratumoral cisplatin.
