Filter by:The primary objective is to determine the efficacy (Progression-Free Rate at 12 months) of durvalumab combined with etoposide and platinum (either cisplatin or carboplatin) for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced LCNEC confirmed by centralized expert-pathologist review
The trial is divided into two parts. PART 1 is a dose escalation study of the ZG005 combined with Etoposide and Cisplatin, primarily assessing the tolerability and safety of this combined treatment. PART 2 is a dose expansion study, further evaluating the preliminary efficacy and safety of this combined treatment.
The goal of this open-label randomized, multicenter, comparative phase II trial is to evaluate the efficacy of the immunotherapy, dostarlimab, as first-line treatment for deficient mismatch repair (dMMR)/microsatellite instability (MSI) non-resectable metastatic or locally advanced non-colorectal and non-endometrial cancers compared to the standard of care chemotherapy. Adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with histologically confirmed dMMR/MSI duodenum and small bowel adenocarcinoma, gastric and oeso-gastric junction (OGJ) adenocarcinoma with combined positive score (CPS)<5, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, ampulla of vater adenocarcinoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, carcinoma of unknown primary site, neuroendocrine carcinoma (Grade3) all primary, and soft tissue sarcoma (except Gastro-Intestinal Stromal Tumor) will be included in this study. They will be randomized and treated with either dostarlimab (experimental arm A), or chemotherapy (control arm B). Patients with documented disease progression following the first line chemotherapy (Arm B) may be eligible for crossover to be treated with dostarlimab, with the same schedule as arm A.
This is a single-arm, monocentric, phase II trial, enrolling patients with histological diagnosis of collecting duct carcinoma and renal medullary carcinoma with locally advanced or metastatic disease who will be treated with Pembrolizumab plus Enfortumab Vedotin. Approximately, 23 patients will be enrolled. At screening, pre-existing archival primary and metastatic FFPE tumor specimen will be collected and submitted for central pathology review and translational analysis. All participants will undergo baseline screening imaging for clinical staging. Patients will be treated with Pembrolizumab q21 plus Enfortumab Vedotin 1,8q21 for 3 cycles (3 infusion of Pembrolizumab and 6 infusion of Enfortumab Vedotin) then radiological imaging will be repeated and patients with SD, PR or CR will continue pembrolizumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicities or completion of treatment (17 cycles). Patients with progressive disease after 3 cycles of study intervention will be treated as per clinical practice. Patients who will experience progressive disease during pembrolizumab monotherapy treatment could restart Enfortumab Vedotin. The study will also involve collection of a blood sample taken at the commencement of treatment, at the first cycle, after cycle 3 and at the end of treatment or progression of disease, to be used for research purposes.
This study is a retrospective study trying to find the predictive factors for medullary thyroid aggressiveness in terms of tumor metastasis and patients' survival.
This is a multicenter, open-label phase I/II study, divided into 2 parts: Part 1 involves a dose-escalation study of ZG006 in which the safety and tolerability of ZG006 in patients with advanced small cell lung cancer or neuroendocrine carcinoma are explored. Upon completion of Part 1, investigators and the sponsor will discuss and determine two recommended phase II doses (RP2D) based on safety, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetic (PK) results for use in Part 2. Part 2 is a phase II dose-expansion study of ZG006, aiming to investigate the efficacy and safety of ZG006 in patients with advanced small cell lung cancer.
Background: Rare tumors of the genitourinary (GU) tract can appear in the kidney, bladder, ureters, and penis. Rare tumors are difficult to study because there are not enough people to conduct large trials for new treatments. Two drugs-sacituzumab govitecan (SG) and atezolizumab-are each approved to treat other cancers. Researchers want to find out if the two drugs used together can help people with GU. Objective: To test SG, either alone or combined with atezolizumab, in people with rare GU tumors. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years and older with rare GU tumors. These may include small cell carcinoma of the bladder; squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder; primary adenocarcinoma of the bladder; renal medullary carcinoma; or squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have tests of heart function. They will have imaging scans. They may need a biopsy: A small needle will be used to remove a sample of tissue from the tumor. Both SG and atezolizumab are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. All participants will receive SG on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day treatment cycle. Some participants will also receive atezolizumab on day 1 of each cycle. Blood and urine tests, imaging scans, and other exams will be repeated during study visits. Treatment may continue for up to 5 years. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 more years.
This study is a phase 2, open, single-site trial. The primary objective of this study is to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy in participants treated with Lu-177 DOTATATE (Lutathera) in unresectable or metastatic, somatostatin receptor-expressing neuroendocrine tumours (NET) in currently unlicensed indications (eg, bronchial and thymic NET; paraganglioma/phaeochromocytoma; medullary thyroid carcinoma; and those requiring repeat peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) with 2 further cycles of Lutathera). The aim is to recruit a total of 75-110 participants. Each patient will receive 4 cycles of Lutathera with 8-12 weeks time interval (except patients requiring repeat PRRT will receive 2 further cycles of Lutathera). The follow-up period will be for 2 years from the date of the last treatment.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of autologous CD8+ and CD4+ lentivirally transduced to express L1CAM-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and EGFRt mutation specific T cells and to see how well they work in treating patients with small cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer (SCNPC) that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) and cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). CAR T-cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack tumor cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's tumor cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. Some solid tumor cells have an L1CAM protein on their surface, and T cells can be modified with a receptor, called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), to help recognize this protein and kill these tumor cells. Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. These L1CAM mutation specific T cells may help the body's immune system identify and kill L1CAM locally advanced and unresectable or metastatic small cell neuroendocrine prostate cancers' tumor cells.
Clinical studies, with a distinct emphasis on medullary thyroid cancer, play a pivotal role in evaluating the safety and effectiveness of novel treatments for this condition. These trials serve as essential tools to determine whether new medications surpass conventional therapies, providing substantial evidence to endorse their broader adoption. The primary objective is to meticulously examine trial completion rates and voluntary withdrawals within this specific patient group. By actively participating in this observational study plays a critical role in pushing medical knowledge forward and advancing care for individuals suffering from the medullary thyroid cancer.
