  • At least one lesion documented via imaging (within 4 weeks of Screening) which canbe accessed using EBUS-TBNI;

  • Subject is not a candidate for surgery;

  • Has received or plans to receive SOC chemotherapy; adequate hematologic recoverymust be confirmed according to the institution's SOC;

  • Performance Status (ECOG) 0-2 at study entry;

  • Life expectancy of at least 6 months;

  • Adequate marrow, liver, and renal function at study entry;

  • ANC ≥ 1.5 x 109/L;

  • Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 grams/dL;

  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5x institutional ULN;

  • AST/ ALT ≤ 2.5x institutional ULN;

  • Creatinine ≤ 1.5x institutional ULN;

  • Appropriate steps taken to minimize or avoid the potential for pregnancy forsubjects of child-bearing potential.*

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Significant cardiac disease (Class III or IV per New York Heart Associationguidelines);

  • Active bacterial, viral, or fungal infections (including active AIDS, hepatitis B orhepatitis C);

  • Symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastasis which are neurologicallyunstable, or CNS disease requiring increase in steroid dose (treated metastaticdisease and stable steroid use are not excluded)

Study Description

NanoPac is very small (submicron) particles of the chemotherapy drug, paclitaxel, which is administered intravenously in a number of types of cancer. These submicron particles are injected directly into solid tumors to target cancer at the site of disease with less systemic exposure than intravenously administered chemotherapy. In this study, the submicron particle paclitaxel will be injected directly into tumors in the lungs of people with small cell or non-small cell lung cancer. All subjects in this study will receive NanoPac and will be evaluated to see if NanoPac is safe and has an effect on the tumor within the lung.
