Measure
Photodynamic Therapy-Photofrin
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the i.v. injection of 2 mg/kg-porfimer sodium (Photofrin®) followed by illumination of the tumor using a fiber optic device during navigational bronchoscopy. Two days after the injection, a laser light will be applied to the tumor. Porfimer sodium: After injection of porfimer sodium (Photofrin®), a flexible bronchoscopy with navigation guidance will be performed to confirm the location and the size of the lesion with the use of radial probe endobronchial ultrasonography (REBUS). A light dose of 200 J/cm of diffuser length will be delivered. Fiber optic: A fiber optic diffuser length matching the tumor length will be placed in the lesion under fluoroscopy guidance.

Timeframe: up to day 0 (-14 to -1 days)

Measured at screening to be the baseline measure. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scores range from 0 to 5. The lowest values mean a better outcome: 0 is fully active with no performance restrictions; 1 is strenuous physical activity restricted but fully ambulatory and able to carry out light work; 2 is capable of all self-care but unable to carry out any work activities - up and about \>50% of waking hours; 3 is capable of only limited self-care and confined to bed or chair \>50% of waking hours; and 4 is completely disable, cannot carry out any self-care and totally confined to bed or chair.

Timeframe: Baseline

Baseline score of EORTC QLQ-C30 which is a multi-dimensional Health Related Quality of Life measure designed for use in lung cancer patients. Includes 5 functional measures (physical, role, emotional, social, cognitive), 8 symptoms (fatigue, pain, nausea/vomiting, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, insomnia, dyspnea) and global health status and financial impact. Most items use 4-item scale from "not at all" to "very much". Raw scores are transformed to 0-100 scale with higher scores representing better functioning/Quality of Life and greater symptom burden.

Photodynamic Therapy-Photofrin
n=5 Participants
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the i.v. injection of 2 mg/kg-porfimer sodium (Photofrin®) followed by illumination of the tumor using a fiber optic device during navigational bronchoscopy. Two days after the injection, a laser light will be applied to the tumor. Porfimer sodium: After injection of porfimer sodium (Photofrin®), a flexible bronchoscopy with navigation guidance will be performed to confirm the location and the size of the lesion with the use of radial probe endobronchial ultrasonography (REBUS). A light dose of 200 J/cm of diffuser length will be delivered. Fiber optic: A fiber optic diffuser length matching the tumor length will be placed in the lesion under fluoroscopy guidance.

Baseline measure for EORTC QLQ-LC13 which is a 13-item lung cancer-specific questionnaire module. It is used in conjunction with the QLQ-C30. It is comprised of multi-item and single-item measures of lung cancer associated symptoms (coughing, hemoptysis, dyspnea, pain) and side effects from conventional chem-and radiotherapy (alopecia, neuropathy, sore mouth, dysphagia). For these symptom-oriented scales, a higher score means more severe symptoms. The scale is from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much). The scoring (as reported here) is from 0 to 100 with the higher score meaning a more severe symptom.

Photodynamic Therapy-Photofrin
n=5 Participants
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the i.v. injection of 2 mg/kg-porfimer sodium (Photofrin®) followed by illumination of the tumor using a fiber optic device during navigational bronchoscopy. Two days after the injection, a laser light will be applied to the tumor. Porfimer sodium: After injection of porfimer sodium (Photofrin®), a flexible bronchoscopy with navigation guidance will be performed to confirm the location and the size of the lesion with the use of radial probe endobronchial ultrasonography (REBUS). A light dose of 200 J/cm of diffuser length will be delivered. Fiber optic: A fiber optic diffuser length matching the tumor length will be placed in the lesion under fluoroscopy guidance.

Timeframe: Up to 6 months

Safety evaluation included vital sign summary for each subject. Vital signs included pulse, blood pressure, temperature and respiration rate. Only clinically relevant results, as per the investigator judgement, are included. These would be vital signs that are out of the normal range but could be considered outside enough to be clinically relevant to the subject's health.

Distribution of lymphocyte subsets from peripheral blood was determined by flow cytometry. Flow cytometry is a laser-based technique used to detect and measure physical and chemical characteristics of a population of cells or particles. It allows simultaneous multi-parameter analysis of single cells. The selected markers of interest, representative of the broader markers were: Total Thymus-cells (T-Cells), Cluster of Differentiation 4 (CD4) T cell subsets, and Cluster of Differentiation 9 (CD8) T cell subset, CD4 T Regulatory (T Reg) cells, Natural Killer Cells, Activated T cells, Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells (MSCDs), Monocytes. The Percent Gated and Absolute counts were analysed for each marker. Gating allows the analysis to be restricted to a specific size of cells (e.g. lymphocytes) to allow a more specific analysis. Absolute counting quantifies the total number of cells. It is recommended to look at both values to get the full picture.

Adverse Event of special interest was Skin Photosensitivity. Skin photosensitivity was examined because all subjects who receive Photofrin are photosensitive and must observe precautions to avoid exposure of eyes and skin to direct sunlight or bright indoor lights for 30 days or longer. Changes in skin will be assessed by grade of erythema, edema and blistering and will be tabulated by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade in the dermatology/skin category.
