Filter by:This work will evaluate the adverse effects of mitotane treatment in patients treated for ACC with mitotane therapy. All of the individuals were treated at Ruijin Hospital between May 2023 and May 2024.
This project will evaluate of the number of patients who underwent adrenalectomy for ACC in different European centers using the EUROCRINE® database. The analysis will focus on the extent of lymph nodal dissection (i.e. number of lymph nodes and nodal stations dissected during adrenalectomy). We aim to evaluate the oncologic radicality of surgical treatment and the rate of tumour recurrences after surgery and nodal metastasis related to the stage of the disease and to tumour side (left/right).
The goal of this observational pilot study is to explore whether we can identify biomarkers predictive for the diagnosis of adrenocortical carcinoma in blood. Five participants who are suspected to have adrenocortical carcinoma will undergo an adrenal vein sampling in order to obtain a blood sample from the adrenal vein. This blood sample will be analyzed and compared to blood samples taken from the adrenal vein of 20 control patients, which are patients who do not have adrenocortical carcinoma. The blood samples of the control patients will be drawn during routine medical care.
To learn if adding pembrolizumab to mitotane can help to control ACC. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
This study is a national, multicenter, interventional, phase II clinical trial on the use of pembrolizumab in advanced adrenocortical carcinoma, with confirmed progression within 6 months, following EDP or EDP-M ( etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin- mitotan) chemotherapy. Adrenocortical carcinoma is a very rare entity with poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Only radical surgical treatment of the early stages gives a chance for complete cure, however the risk of recurrence still remains high. The results of clinical trials conducted outside Poland indicate a possible potential role of immunotherapy as a rescue treatment for adrenocortical carcinoma after standard therapeutic methods have been exhausted. This study will evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of treatment with the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab in locally advanced, non-operable or metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma after first line chemotherapy failure. The study population will include adult patients (>18 years of age) with histopathologically confirmed adrenocortical carcinoma and confirmed progression according to RECIST 1.1 within 6 months, after first line chemotherapy with the EDP and EDP-M scheme. Patients must meet the inclusion criteria and must not meet the exclusion criteria described in the PEMBR-01 study protocol. The planned number of patients in the study is 24. The treatment regimen will be based on Pembrolizumab administered intravenously in 3 weeks cycles at a dose of 200mg. For hormonally active tumors producing cortisol, it is hypothesized that the use of pembrolizumab in combination with effective steroidogenesis inhibition may enhance the effect of immunotherapy. In the study, metyrapone or ketoconazole will be used for this purpose. The primary endpoint of the study will be the objective response rate to the treatment. The secondary endpoints will be progression-free survival, duration of response, overall survival, and treatment safety as well as the effect of therapy on patients' quality of life. Concurrently, the analysis of biomarkers in tumor tissue will be carried out, including tumour infiltrating lymphocytes, expression of programmed death ligand, microsatellite instability and tumour mutation burden.
Purpose of this clinical phase 1 trial was to determine if para-chloro-2-[18F]fluoroethyletomidate positron emission computed tomography ([18F]CETO-positron emission computed tomography(PET)/computed tomography(CT)) can be used in diagnostics of adrenal tumors and if the biochemical/pharmacological states conditions in humans with various illnesses, compared to healthy humans, such as the radio tracer is suitable?
This work will evaluate the effects of mitotane treatment on serum protein concentrations in patients treated for ACC with mitotane therapy and compare them to patients with an adrenal neoplasm and pregnant cohort. All of the individuals were treated at King's Hospital between April 2019 and June 2020. Proteins which will be evaluated during this study, include CBG and TBG.
Background: Neuroendocrine neoplasm (NENs)are rare cancers arising from the neuroendocrine cells and can affect almost any part of the body. They vary from low grade neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) to high grade neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs). These tumors often occur in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, lungs, adrenal medulla (pheochromocytomas) or adrenal cortex (adrenocortical cancer) and other areas of the body mentioned below: - Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET): stomach, duodenum, pancreas, colon, appendix, etc. - Liver and gallbladder - Adrenal tumors - Pituitary gland - Thyroid gland: medullary thyroid carcinoma - Parathyroid tumors - Pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors: typical and atypical carcinoid, small cell lung cancer (SCLC), large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) - Extrapulmonary small cell cancer - Peripheral nervous system tumors: paraganglioma, neuroblastoma) - Breast and genitourinary tract Their rates are rising in the United States and worldwide. Researchers want to learn more about NENs through this natural history study. Objective: To study the natural history of people with NENs and obtain samples from them to learn more about the disease. The clinical management of all NETs is not standardized, with only a few FDA-approved therapies and we would like to learn which combination therapeutic approach should be used, how long treatment should be continued, and in what subgroup of NENs a particular treatment option should be used. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older who have or are suspected to have NENs or ACC. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history. Participants will have a physical exam. Their symptoms and their ability to perform their normal activities will be reviewed. They will have blood and urine tests. Participants will receive recommendations for managing their disease and potential treatment options. They will be able to ask as many questions as they would like. Participants may provide saliva, blood, and stool samples for research. They will give tumor samples from a previous surgery or biopsy. Participants may have optional biopsies. During biopsies, cancer tissue will be obtained using a needle and syringe. Tissue will be taken from the liver, lung, or a lymph node. Participants may have an imaging scan or ultrasound to help locate the tumor or area to be biopsied. They will receive local anesthesia and may be sedated. Participants will complete a questionnaire about their family medical history. Participants will have follow-up visits every 6 months. They will have physical exams and give samples. If their health changes, they may have extra visits. If they cannot visit NIH, they (or their doctor) will be contacted by phone or email. Participants will take part in the study for all their life.

Phase 2, multicenter, single-arm, open-label basket study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of milademetan in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors refractory or intolerant to standard-of-care therapy that exhibit wild-type (WT) TP53 and MDM2 copy number (CN) ≥ 8 using prespecified biomarker criteria.
