Funded Activity Summary

Cancers can induce fluid build up within the chest cavity leading to breathlessness impairing quality of life. These three studies are focused on improving MPE care. The PLEASE study aims to determine the mechanism of breathlessness and provide predictors for patient selection for fluid drainage. The AMPLE-2 trial will determine the optimal drainage regime to improve patient related outcomes. The FRAME study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a novel therapy in mesothelioma.
