2. Study of a Tiotropium Inhaler For Shortness of Breath in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (TIDAL)
The recruitment status of this study is unknown because the information has not been verified recently.
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01172925
The feeling of shortness of breath is very common in lung cancer. It is uncomfortable for patients and upsetting for their family. Although drugs like morphine and oxygen can help some patients feel better, they don't help everybody, and they are not used in patients with early symptoms. More relief is needed for these patients. The investigators are studying a drug called tiotropium, which is used in emphysema. It is an inhaler that opens the airways to allow easier breathing. Every patient will get the drug but also a placebo, in a random (flip of a coin) order. They will get each for 2 weeks. The investigators will see if they feel better with the drug.

3. Adjuvant Melatonin for Prevention of Lung Cancer Recurrence and Mortality: A Randomized Placebo Controlled Clinical Trial
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00668707
There is evidence to support the use of melatonin, a natural health product, as an additional treatment aid for cancer patients. This study is designed to see if the daily ingestion of 20 milligrams of melatonin for one year can lower the incidence of developing lung cancer recurrence and/or death. Only patients with a diagnosis of non small cell lung cancer who are eligible for surgical resection can participate in the trial. The study will also be assessing for changes in quality of life, pain, fatigue, anxiety, sleep, and depression amongst the participants.

6. Validation of an Exercise DVD for Maintenance After Pulmonary Rehabilitation
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01235481
The purpose of this study is to validate incorporation of an exercise DVD into a maintenance program after pulmonary rehabilitation. 100 subjects will be recruited over 2-years from pulmonary rehabilitation programs at Capital Health, with 50 individuals randomized to usual care following PR and 50 individuals randomized to usual care plus the exercise DVD. Study subjects will be evaluated at time of enrolment in pulmonary rehabilitation, at completion of pulmonary rehabilitation and 6-months post- pulmonary rehabilitation.
