Filter by:Immunotherapy (IO), such as treatment with anti-PD-1, PD-L1, or CTLA-4 inhibitors, is a rapidly expanding treatment for multiple metastatic cancers with improved survival for certain cancers. However, the optimal duration of immunotherapies is currently unknown. Our hypothesis is that a reduced dose intensity of IO could be as effective as the current standard treatment in term of prevention of the disease progression. If proved right, this study will have a positive medico-economic impact by reduction of the costs associated with the treatment and the toxicity, and an increase of the patients' quality of life.
This study will study circulating tumor cell (CTC) release during laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (LRN) for RCC. The main objective is to determine if CTC release can be reduced during RN by using a no-touch technique, with an early renal pedicle ligation. The investigators also aim to describe the CTC profile in terms of CTC count (CTCn), epithelial/mesenchymal status, and CTC cellular features in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients, stratified by "primary tumor, regional nodes, metastasis" (TNM) staging, histological subtype, and other clinical and radiological features. Patients undergoing RN will enter a two-arm prospective single-center randomized controlled trial (RCT), comparing a no-touch RN technique, with direct pedicle ligation (Group A) vs. the more conventional approach of kidney traction and manipulation to reach the renal pedicle before its ligation (Group B). A microfluidic size-based CTC isolation device will be used to capture and count CTCs from peripheral blood samples of these patients. CTCs will be identified by staining with antibodies to cytokeratin 8/18, vimentin, 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), and cluster of differentiation antigen 45 (CD45). CTC release will be correlated with the disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). The investigators will determine if CTC reducing no-touch radical nephrectomy technique improves these hard outcomes.
This is a first-in-human, Phase 1, open label, multicenter, multiple dose, dose escalation and expansion study intended to evaluate the safety, viral load kinetics and shedding, pharmacodynamic, and anti-tumor activity of PF-07263689, either alone or in combination with sasanlimab (an investigational anti-programmed cell death protein 1 [PD-1] antibody), in patients with selected locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have exhausted all available standard of care therapies available to them. The study consists of 2 parts: Part 1 dose escalation for PF-07263689 monotherapy (Part 1A) and in combination with sasanlimab (Part 1B), followed by Part 2 dose expansion for the combination therapy.
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) were significantly altered in localized as well advanced RCC compared to healthy samples. In addition, GAG scores correlated with progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) in a prospective cohort of patients with metastatic ccRCC and localized RCC. However, it is still unknown whether alterations in plasma and urine GAGs are exquisitely specific to RCC or are shared by other benign lesions in the kidney, such as angiomyolipomas, oncocytomas, or PEComa.
This clinical trial studies the effect of four different intervention components "tools" on body weight, nutrition, and physical activity in cancer survivors. Studies indicate that people with a history of cancer whose nutrition and physical activity habits are consistent with the American Cancer Society's Nutrition and Physical Activity Guidelines may have longer disease-free survival. The four different intervention components may help patients with a history of cancer adopt recommended health behaviors after they have completed treatment.
A Phase II Study of Nivolumab with Ipilimumab and Cabozantinib in Patients with Untreated Renal Cell Carcinoma Brain Metastases
A clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of savolitinib plus durvalumab versus sunitinib in MET-driven (hepatocyte growth factor receptor), unresectable and locally advanced or metastatic PRCC (Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma).
The investigators aimed to evaluate the role of some findings that can be detected in preoperative radiological imaging of kidney masses in predicting locally advanced disease.
The microbiome has the potential to serve as a robust biomarker of clinical response to immunotherapy. Additionally, microbial manipulation, through diet, exercise, prebiotics, probiotics, or microbially-derived metabolites, may prove to be beneficial in promoting anti-tumor immune responses. However, large prospective studies in humans with longitudinal sample collection and standardized methods are needed to understand how microbiota and their byproducts affect cancer therapies, particularly among patients undergoing identical therapy but experiencing different outcomes. The proposed observational study builds upon these hypotheses by proposing a large cohort design to further assess the associations between the gut microbiota (composition and function), host immune system, and ICI treatment efficacy across multiple cancer types.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles, and preliminary efficacy of belzutifan as monotherapy followed by belzutifan+lenvatinib combination therapy, as well as belzutifan combined with lenvatinib and pembrolizumab in China participants with advanced renal cell carcinoma.
