Filter by:This randomized phase II trial studies how well metformin hydrochloride works compared to placebo in treating patients with prostate cancer undergoing surgery. Metformin hydrochloride may make some enzymes active. These enzymes may block other enzymes needed for cell growth and stop the growth of tumor cells.
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and bad) a tumor vaccine used in combination with GM.CD40L and CCL21 have on the patient and their cancer. We also want to find out if the vaccine and the drugs can boost the immune system of these patients and how their immune system reacts, both before and after the vaccine treatment.
This is an open-label phase 1/2 study that will combine the chemotherapy agents gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel with an oral hedgehog inhibitor LDE225 (Sonidegib). The objective is to assess tolerability and the resection rate of patients with borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma who use this treatment.
The main purpose of this study is to determine whether ADT started before or after sipuleucel-T leads to a better immune system response. This study will also evaluate the safety of sipuleucel-T treatment, immune system responses over time, the characteristics of sipuleucel-T, and changes in prostate specific antigen (PSA) values over time.
Net-Pac investigates if radiation prior to surgical resection improves survival in patients with pancreatic head cancer without metastases.
Phase I part, Primary objective: the maximum tolerated dose of S-1 in the SLOG regimen Secondary objectives: the dose-limiting toxicity of the regimen Phase II part, Primary objective: Overall tumor response rate (by RECIST criteria) Secondary objectives: Disease control rate (Objective response rate (ORR) + stable disease ≧ 16 weeks), Time to tumor progression, Progression-free survival, Overall survival ,Safety profile, Biomarker study
This is a multicenter, open label, randomized, phase 2b study, designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of patients with locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma following intratumoral administration of BC-819 and intravenously administered gemcitabine. Intratumoral injections of BC-819 will be performed using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). Primary Objective: To assess the effect of intratumoral endoscopic ultrasound injection of BC-819 administered with intravenous gemcitabine on progression-free survival. Secondary Objectives: To compare the effects of intratumoral injection of BC-819 administered in combination with intravenous gemcitabine vs. intravenous gemcitabine alone on: Overall survival, Response rate, Resectability of the target tumor lesion, Quality of life, Safety, Serological Tumor Marker: CA 19-9, Duration of response, Failure-free survival
This phase I trial studies the side effects and optimal dose of PF-04136309 when given with combination chemotherapy (FOLFIRINOX; 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, irinotecan, oxaliplatin) in treating patients with locally advanced or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. These patients are not candidates for surgical resection which is the most effective treatment for pancreatic cancer. Giving PF-04136309 together with FOLFIRINOX may shrink pancreatic tumors in some patients so that surgery becomes an option
1. The investigators hypothesize that increasing radiation dose to the functional MRI-defined lesion in the prostate bed will result in an improved initial complete response (reduction in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to < 0.1 ng/mL), which is related to long-term outcome biochemically. 2. Biomarker expression levels differ in the DCE-MRI enhancing and non-enhancing tumor regions (when applicable). 3. 10-15% of men undergoing RT have free circulating DNA (fcDNA) or tumor cells (CTC) that are related to an adverse treatment outcome. 4. Prostate cancer-related anxiety will be reduced in the MRI targeted SRT arm, because the patients will be aware that the dominant tumor will be targeted with higher radiation dose (compared to those pts who were treated on standard arm prior to its closure).
The purpose of this study is to provide a safety and feasibility basis for future studies addressing the hypothesis that subcutaneous vaccination with dendritic cells loaded with multiple antigenic epitopes expressed by pancreatic tumor in combination with systemic administration of Poly-ICLC (Hiltonol) will induce anti-tumor immunity.
