Filter by:This phase II trial investigates how well paricalcitol and hydroxychloroquine work when combined with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic). Paricalcitol (a form of vitamin D) works by blocking a signal in the cancer cells that leads to growth and spreading of the tumor. Hydroxychloroquine (an autophagy inhibitor) enhances the activity of standard chemotherapy on cancer cells and prevent them to utilize energy to grow. Chemotherapy drugs, such as gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving paricalcitol and hydroxychloroquine together with standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel) may work better in treating patients with pancreatic cancer compared to either paricalcitol or hydroxychloroquine alone.
This phase Ib trial investigates the side effects and how well a shorter course of chemotherapy and radiation treatment (chemoradiotherapy) for 2 weeks instead of 5 weeks followed by standard chemotherapy works in treating patients with gastric cancer who are scheduled to have treatment and then surgery to remove the tumor. Chemotherapy drugs, such as capecitabine and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving short-course chemo-radiotherapy before chemotherapy and surgery may help to control the disease.
This phase I trial investigates how well pembrolizumab and chemoradiotherapy works in treating patients with gastroesophageal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fluorouracil, oxaliplatin and docetaxel work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy photons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab together with chemoradiotherapy may help to control gastroesophageal cancer.
This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of BAY 1895344 when given together with usual chemotherapy (irinotecan or topotecan) in treating patients with solid tumors that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), with a specific focus on small cell lung cancer, poorly differentiated neuroendocrine cancer, and pancreatic cancer. BAY 1895344 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as irinotecan and topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Adding BAY 1895344 to irinotecan or topotecan may help to slow the growth of tumors for longer than seen with those drugs alone.
BOVARY-CE is a monocentric, pilot, longitudinal, real-life study with a total duration of 36 months. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of using liquid biopsy as a substitute for tissue multisampling, in order to describe clonal heterogeneity and tumor evolution in patients with ovarian cancer. The method involves the inclusion of 20 patients with high-grade ovarian adenocarcinoma, fallopian tubes or primary peritoneal origin, not pretreated, newly diagnosed, and eligible for treatment who will participate in the research. These patients will have several samples throughout their treatment for a period of 2 years: blood samples which will be taken at each therapeutic moment of interest. Tissue samples which will be taken at the time of the diagnostic laparoscopy and at the time of surgery. The concentration of cfDNA and tumor heterogeneity will be used to predict disease-related events defined as relapse, progression or death.
This study examines at-home monitoring of patient-generated phsyiologic health data and patient-reported outcomes. Patient-generated health data using at-home monitoring devices and smart device applications are used more and more to measure value and quality in cancer care. This trial may show whether at-home monitoring programs can improve the care of patients after hospital discharge from surgery.
This study is being done to see if tucatinib with trastuzumab, ramucirumab and paclitaxel works better than ramucirumab and paclitaxel to treat HER2-positive (HER2+) cancer of the gut (stomach or gastroesophageal cancer). This study will also look at what side effects happen when participants take this combination of drugs. A side effect is anything the drug does other than treating cancer. Study treatment will be given in 28-day cycles. In the Phase 2 part of the trial, participants and their doctors will know what drugs are being given (open-label). In the Phase 3 part, the study is "blinded." This means that participants, their doctor, and the study sponsor will not know which drugs are being given.
Study to compare the safety and efficacy of oregovomab versus placebo, administered in combination with specific cycles of a standard six-cycle chemotherapy regimen (paclitaxel and carboplatin), for the treatment of subjects with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer who have undergone optimal debulking.
To find the recommended dose of NBTXR3 that can be given in combination with radiation therapy to patients with pancreatic cancer. To learn if the dose NBTXR3 found in Part 1 can help to control the disease.
Objective: To compare MIDP with ODP regarding radical resection rate for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the pancreatic body or tail. Study design: A pan-European, randomized controlled, multicenter, patient-blinded non-inferiority trial. This protocol was designed according to the SPIRIT guidelines1. Pathologists judging the primary endpoint will be blinded for the surgical approach (MIDP vs ODP). A blinded adjudication committee will assess all endpoints. Study population: Two groups of 129 patients (258 in total) with an indication for elective distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy because of proven or highly suspected PDAC. Intervention: Minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (either laparoscopic or robot-assisted) Control: Open distal pancreatectomy
