Registration Number
NCT03656822
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether adding new methods of data visualization to routine clinical care will improve (i) surgical planning and (ii) surgical outcomes in patients with kidney and prostate tumors.

Detailed Description

This early phase I trial studies how well indwelling pleural catheters with doxycycline work compared to indwelling pleural catheters alone in treating participants with malignant pleural effusions. These types of catheters are commonly used to treat pleural effusions (build-up of fluid in the lungs). Doxycycline is an antibiotic that is also used to treat pleural effusions. It is not yet known whether giving doxycycline with indwelling pleural catheters works better than indwelling pleural catheters alone in treating participants with cancerous pleural effusions.
