Filter by:This trial will explore effectiveness and safety using the combination therapy of camrelizumab，apatinib and hyperfractionated radiotherapy in patients with renal cell carcinoma(RCC). Hypofractionation is a technique that delivers higher daily doses of radiation over a shorter period of time.immunotherapy. hyperfractionated radiotherapy, represented by stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), can significantly improve the radiotherapy sensitivity of RCC. This trial will also observe whether SBRT can bring about immune effects and explore the group and individual indicators that affect the treatment effect of RCC.
The ipilimumab and nivolumab combination is now part of the standard of care for the treatment of melanoma, renal and lung cancer patients. Grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) occur in 30 to 60% of patients included in clinical trials. Grade 3/4 AEs are more frequently observed (50-60% of patients) in melanoma because ipilimumab is administrated at 3mg/kg in this population. Among these AEs, early detection of immune related AEs is critical to an adequate medical management. In this context, dedicated tools for remote monitoring of these patients are crucial. The investigators developed within the Immucare consortium a simplified medical questionnaire which is addressed weekly to the patients. This questionnaire along with an algorithm gives to the clinician regular feedback on their patients' general symptoms. The investigators herein want to evaluate in a randomized prospective trial the efficacy of this remote monitoring to reduce the time between the start of AE and the reporting to the medical team, which could lead to detect and treat earlier AEs induced by nivolumab and ipilimumab in the melanoma, lung and renal cancer patients' population.
This phase II trial investigates how well pamiparib and temozolomide work in treating patients with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell (kidney) cancer. Poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARPs) are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as pamiparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Chemotherapy drugs, such as temozolomide, 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 pamiparib and temozolomide may help treat patients with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer.
The Investigators will use novel PDX (patient-derived xenograft) technology to form xenografts using material from metastatic solid tumor patients. Xenografts will be treated with a panel of drugs to determine which agent(s) yield the greatest anti-tumor effect on the xenograft.
Shorten the time spent in the hospital (hospitalization duration) by optimizing the pre, per and postoperative care is of major medical and economic importance. Minimally invasive surgery allows a faster recovery than open surgery. However, we need to ensure an early and secure return to normality in order to discharge patients safely from the hospital. Clinical and biological parameters need to be controlled post-surgery. This work is going to evaluate the efficacity of a fast - recovery program with incoming patients receiving minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic or robotic) of partial and total nephrectomy. The implementation of a medical and surgical fast-recovery program could - Lower the average duration of stay in hospital (at least by 1 day) with no increase of morbidity - Insure the absence of complications after 6 months home
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding whole brain radiotherapy with hippocampal avoidance and memantine to stereotactic radiosurgery versus stereotactic radiosurgery alone in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain and come back in other areas of the brain after earlier stereotactic radiosurgery. Hippocampus avoidance during whole-brain radiation therapy decreases the amount of radiation that is delivered to the hippocampus, which is a brain structure that is important for memory. The medicine memantine is also often given with whole brain radiation therapy because it may decrease the risk of side effects of radiation on thinking and memory. Stereotactic radiosurgery delivers a high dose of radiation only to the small areas of cancer in the brain and avoids the surrounding normal brain tissue. Adding whole brain radiotherapy with hippocampal avoidance and memantine to stereotactic radiosurgery may be effective in shrinking or stabilizing cancer that has spread to the brain and returned in other areas of the brain after receiving stereotactic radiosurgery.
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of belzutifan + lenvatinib versus cabozantinib in participants with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with clear cell component after prior therapy. The primary hypothesis is that belzutifan + lenvatinib is superior to cabozantinib in terms of progression-free survival or overall survival.
This phase II trial investigates how well MRI-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy works in treating patients with early-stage kidney cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy radiation to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. This method of radiation delivery is further refined through the incorporation of a MRI into the radiation machine to create a device known as a MRI linear accelerator. During treatment with MRI linear accelerator, continuous MRI images are obtained to allow for real-time treatment monitoring and the ability to adjust treatment plans if minor deviations in anatomy are noted. Giving MRI-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy may help treat patients with early-stage kidney cancer.
Nivolumab (and other agents affecting the anti-programmed death-1 [anti-PD-1] pathway) have demonstrated anti-tumor activity in multiple tumor types including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), melanoma (MEL), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and other cancers. However, there remains a large proportion of participants who do not achieve durable clinical benefit to nivolumab monotherapy. Combinations of immune-oncology (IO) agents with complimentary mechanisms as well as radiation represent a promising strategy to improve response rates to immunotherapy. In this phase I study, radiation will be used in combination with IO agents nivolumab and anti-IL-8 (BMS-986253) to assess toxicity by organ system. The study will determine the safe doses of radiation by organ site in conjunction with nivolumab and BMS-986253. The study will also provide the opportunity to evaluate changes in the tumor microenvironment induced by the treatment.
One-arm clinical trial was adopted in this study. The surgeons performed remote urological surgery for patients through domestically produced "MicroHand" surgical robot system (Shandong Weigao Co., Ltd). The "MicroHand" surgical robot system consists of two physically separated subsystems named the "surgeon console" and "patient side cart". The surgeon console includes a stereo image viewer, two master manipulators, a control panel and several foot pedals. The patient side cart includes a passive arm that can slide in the up-down direction and be adjusted forward and backward, a swivel head that can rotate around the vertical axis, and three slave arms (one for the endoscopic camera and the other two for surgical instruments). The surgeon console (based in Qingdao) takes the surgeon's input and translates it into a control signal. After network transmission, the patient side cart (based in Anshun) translates the control signal into actual instrument manipulation. The 3D images captured by the endoscopic camera were simultaneously sent back to the screen of the surgeon console as visual feedback. Data between the surgeon console and the patient side cart were transmitted through a 5G network. The safety and effectiveness of the robotic system in remote clinical diagnosis and treatment were verified by the main judgment criterion and secondary judgment criterion. Six patients are planned to enroll in the clinical trial. Main judgment criterion: The robot-assisted telesurgery did not transfer to other types of surgery, such as open surgery or normal robot-assisted surgery. Secondary judgment criterion: operative time, blood loss, postoperative pain, preoperative adjusting time and hospitalization time. Patient enrollment: This trial aims to explore the safety and effectiveness of the domestically produced robotic system in remote clinical diagnosis and treatment through 5G network. Six patients are planned to enroll in the clinical trial, including 2 patients with adrenal tumor, 2 patients with bladder cancer and 2 patients with renal cell carcinoma.
