Filter by:SAFIR PI3K is an open-label multicenter phase II randomized trial, comparing alpelisib plus fulvestrant to maintenance chemotherapy in patient PIK3CA mutated with HR+/Her2- metastatic breast cancer who do not present progressive disease after 6-8 cycles of 1st or second line chemotherapy. The primary objective is to determine whether treatment with alpelisib plus fulvestrant prolongs progression-free survival (PFS) compared to maintenance chemotherapy in patients PIK3CA mutated with hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2-negative advanced breast cancer, who do not present a progressive disease after 6-8 cycles of chemotherapy.
This is an international, multi-centre, non-controlled, open-label, single arm, two-stage Simon Design phase II study for non-BRCA metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with homologous recombination deficiency treated with Olaparib single agent. The main objective is to assess the efficacy of olaparib single agent as determined by Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1). In the first stage Triple negative (TN) non-BRCA, metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients whose tumours exhibited any characteristic related to homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). In the second stage, luminal patients (RH positive HER2 negative) will be allowed in the same conditions that TN. Patients whose tumours are identified as Homologous Recombination Deficient by deleterious HRR gene mutations (according to Foundation Medicine's Foundation One assay) will receive olaparib 300 mg (two tablets of 150mg) orally twice daily (bid) on days 1-28 each 28 days. Study commitment is 39 patients: 17 patients will be enrolled at first stage and 22 at the second stage. The total duration of the study period is 34 months.
This study is investigational and is not designed to treat cancer. In other words, the study drug, entinostat, is not being given to treat cancer. Instead, the study team is looking at the effects of entinostat on tumor tissue for research purposes only. Approximately 246,660 cases of breast cancer were diagnosed in the United States in 2016. Its detection and treatment remains a major concern in women's healthcare. In particular, TNBC accounts for approximately 15-20% of all breast cancers. Research into treatment for breast cancer relies more and more on understanding how the cancer cells act when they are exposed to an anti-cancer drug. How most cancer cells act when exposed to anti-cancer drugs and which patients as a result may benefit the most from these drugs is not well known. Additional studies are required to determine the cells' reactions. The purpose of part 1 of this study is to better understand how TNBC tumors react to one particular cancer drug, entinostat. Entinostat is currently being studied across multiple clinical trials for the treatment of breast cancer, other solid tumors and blood cancers. Entinostat is investigational and has not yet been FDA approved for the treatment of cancer. Studies have shown that a good way to determine how cancer acts when exposed to anti-cancer drugs is a short-term preoperative window study. In this type of study, subjects receive a study drug a couple of days before surgery. Leftover tissue from surgery is then used to determine some of the effects that a study drug may have on the tumor. In this study, subjects will receive two doses of entinostat prior to undergoing planned surgery. Leftover tissue from this surgery will then be used to determine the effects entinostat has on tumor cells. For example, the study team will examine if the types of genes and proteins that the tumor expresses as a result of entinostat exposure increases or decreases the likelihood that the tumor will not continue to grow. A gene is a unit of DNA. Genes make up the chemical structure carrying your genetic information that may determine human characteristics (i.e., eye color, height and sex). This study will focus on discovering how entinostat affects a wide variety of genes in tumor cells.
Up to one hundred (100) female patients will be enrolled and consented to participate in the study. These women will be enrolled from screening assigned BIRADS 0, patient complaint, or referral for second opinion. The enrolled patient will accept CE-CBBCT scans within 4 weeks of her diagnostic mammography and before breast biopsy if biopsy is needed. The final diagnostic workup outcome of these enrolled patients needs to include at least 30 confirmed cancers cases.
Safety and tolerability of combination of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab will be studied in patients with 3 different types of cancers in 3 parts of the study, as shown below: Part 1 - Neoadjuvant Therapy of Breast Cancer; Part 2 - Therapy of Ovarian Cancer; and Part 3 - Therapy of Gastric Cancer.
CONTESSA is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, Phase 3 study of tesetaxel in patients with HER2 negative, HR positive LA/MBC previously treated with a taxane in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting. The primary objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of tesetaxel plus a reduced dose of capecitabine versus the approved dose of capecitabine alone based on progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by the Independent Radiologic Review Committee (IRC). 685 patients were enrolled.
This is a randomized, 2-arm, open-label, multicenter, international phase II trial. A total of 196 patients will be included. The study will include patients with metastatic Hormone Receptor positive / Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER2) negative breast cancer with progressive disease after endocrine treatment. Patients will be randomized (1:1) between two treatment arms: A. palbociclib + fulvestrant and b. capecitabine.
This is a multicenter, open-label study in participants with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) to study the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of SC-005. This study consists of 2 parts: Part A (dose regimen finding) followed by Part B (dose expansion).
Background: Exomes are the parts of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that make proteins. Researchers are finding a way to read the letters in the exome. Incorrect letters are called mutations. Tumors contain specific mutations. Researchers can find these mutations in tumors to make treatments. Researchers want to use pieces of participants tumors to find the tumor-specific mutations. They also will take participants white blood cells to make a vaccine that they hope will shrink the tumors. Objectives: To see if dendritic vaccine tumor-fighting cells are safe and can cause certain cancer tumors to shrink. Eligibility: Adults ages 18-70 who have metastatic melanoma or metastatic epithelial cancer Design: The first part of this study was done under protocol 03-C-0277. In that study, white blood cells and pieces of participants' tumors were taken to make a vaccine. In this study, participants will get a vaccine every 2 weeks for 8 weeks. It will be given both in a vein and under the skin. At each visit, participants will have a physical exam and have blood taken. They will talk about any side effects they have. After treatment ends, participants will have many follow-up visits for the first year, then once each year after that. Visits will last up to 2 days each. They will include lab tests, imaging studies, and a physical exam. Blood will be taken at each visit. At the first follow-up visit, participants may have leukapheresis, which they also had as part of protocol 03-C-0277. Participants may not have to return to the Clinical Center for these visits.
This is an open label, pharmacodynamics, intrapatient dose escalation phase 1B study.
