Filter by:This phase I trial investigates the side effects of cabozantinib and nivolumab in treating patients with cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) and who are undergoing treatment for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cabozantinib and nivolumab may shrink or stabilize cancer in patients undergoing treatment for HIV.
RCC (Renal Cell Carcinoma) is the most common form of kidney cancer, accounting for 2-3% of all adult malignancies and for 90% of all kidney cancers. The incidence of RCC has steadily increased over the past two decades, showing a plateau in recent years. Many patients with RCC remain asymptomatic until late disease stages and other patients have disease at diagnosis (metastatic RCC or mRCC). Recently, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) cabozantinib was approved as a first-line therapy for patients with advanced clear-cell RCC (ccRCC). Cabozantinib was initially approved for patients previously treated with antiangiogenic therapy based on the phase 3 METEOR study, which demonstrated a clinical benefit compared with everolimus. Immunotherapy has been also developed in ccRCC. The frontline treatment paradigm for ccRCC has evolved, particularly for intermediate-/poor-risk patients, with the recent addition of cabozantinib and nivolumab/ipilimumab (immunotherapy), but overall survival data are needed to understand their benefit-to-risk profiles compared with established therapies. In October 2016, the Spanish Agency of medicines (AEMPS) granted the temporary Authorization for special use to Cabometyx® 20/40/60 mg within a Managed Access Program (MAP) for the treatment of advanced RCC in adults following prior VEGF-targeted therapy (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor targeted therapy). The MAP allows the possibility of using a medicinal product which is not yet commercially available or approved. By the end of the MAP period, on July 2017, 136 patients had been included by 61 centers who received at least one dose of Cabometyx® for the treatment of advanced RCC. Since then, Cabometyx® 20/40/60 mg was made commercially available for the treatment of advanced RCC in adults following prior VEGF-targeted therapy. After the commercialization of Cabometyx® in July 2017 in Spain, the inclusion of new patients in the MAP was closed but those patients that were already included continued receiving Cabometyx® free of charge until clinical decision. In July 2018, the European Commission approved a new indication for adult patients previously untreated with intermediate or poor risk. Based on this rationale, the aim of this study is to obtain safety and effectiveness information regarding the use of cabozantinib in a non-selected RCC population, both in patients that received this agent under the MAP or under routine clinical prescription (real-world [RW]).
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding surgery to a standard of care immunotherapy-based drug combination versus a standard of care immunotherapy-based drug combination alone in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, ipilimumab, pembrolizumab, and avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Axitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Surgery to remove the kidney, called a nephrectomy, is also considered standard of care; however, doctors who treat kidney cancer do not agree on its benefits. It is not yet known if the addition of surgery to an immunotherapy-based drug combination works better than an immunotherapy-based drug combination alone in treating patients with kidney cancer.
To assess whether changes in quantitative tumor perfusion parameters after 3 weeks of treatment, as measured by power Doppler ultrasound, can predict initial objective response, defined by current standard-of-care, to therapy at 12 weeks after start of treatment
The purpose of this study is to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Immunogenicity and Antitumor Activity of AZD8701 Alone and in Combination with Durvalumab (MEDI4736) in Adult Subjects with Select Advanced Solid Tumors
This study investigates the influence of type of anesthesia on recurrence and survival of renal cell carcinoma in patients undergoing nephrectomy. The participants will be allocated to either the group receiving the total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using propofol or the group receiving the inhaled anesthetics, such as sevoflurane or desflurane.
This study examines at-home monitoring of patient-generated phsyiologic health data and patient-reported outcomes. Patient-generated health data using at-home monitoring devices and smart device applications are used more and more to measure value and quality in cancer care. This trial may show whether at-home monitoring programs can improve the care of patients after hospital discharge from surgery.
89Zr-TLX250 is a carbonic anydrase IX (CAIX)-targeted imaging agent that is under clinical development as a non-invasive diagnostic imaging agent for teh detection of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The Phase 1 study part of this study is to confirm the safety/tolerability and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) in subjects with suspected renal cell carcinoma (RCC) including clear cell renal cell carcinoma. The Phase 2 component of the study is to to evaluate the sensitivity/specificity of using 89Zr-TLX250 PET/CT images to detect RCC and ccRCC in patients with suspected RCC.
This is a pilot study of biomarker evaluation and safety of pre-incisional ketorolac for patients undergoing surgical resection for non-small cell lung cancer and renal cell carcinoma. There is significant promise in the use of preoperative ketorolac to decrease the inflammatory response after surgical resection of tumors, thereby potentially reducing the risk of distant metastatic tumor spread and improving survival. A total of 56 patients (28 per disease site) will be enrolled into the experimental arm and will receive ketorolac prior to surgery. About 10 patients will be allocated randomly into a control group, for each disease site, for a total of 76 patients enrolled. The research will advance scientific knowledge by studying the safety of a preoperative dose of ketorolac prior to major surgical resection, which needs to be assessed prior to proceeding with a larger phase II study designed to evaluate traditional efficacy endpoints such as recurrence and overall survival.
This study is a Phase 1, open-label, single institution, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of APX005M in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in patients with advanced melanoma and RCC.
