Filter by:This is an international, multi-centre, prospective (partly retrospective), observational study to evaluate treatment patterns and clinical outcomes in patients with advanced or metastatic RCC treated with sunitinib in first line and/or receiving axitinib in second line post sunitinib. The study is designed to enroll approximately 750 patients over the course of an enrollment period of approximately 36 months.
This study will compare stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) as a bridging strategy for patients with HCC undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. We propose that SBRT will be associated with longer time intervals between initial treatment and the need for retreatment, compared to TACE, as a "bridge" to orthotopic liver transplantation.
Multicentric randomised trial. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) will help to decrease the rate of peritoneal carcinomatosis(PC) in patients with high risk of developing PC of colorectal cancer. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy when combining MK-3475 and INCB024360 in participants with certain cancers. This study was conducted in 2 phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the study drug known as LY2157299 in participants with hepatocellular carcinoma.
This phase II trial studies how well gemcitabine hydrochloride and eribulin mesylate work in treating patients with bladder cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride and eribulin mesylate, 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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the activity of 5-azacitidine in patients with Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)-positive and HPV- negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The response activity will be determined by analyzing your tumor tissue prior to and after treatment with 5-azacitidine. Preliminary studies in mice bearing human head and neck cancers or head and neck cancer cells cultured in laboratories suggest that treatment with 5-azacitidine increases changes in cancer cells that lead to their death. This study is designed to determine if similar changes occur in cancer cells of patients with head and neck cancer. The study also aims to determine the amount of a specific type of protein, p53 before and after treatment. Research has shown that the p53 protein is associated with anti-tumor activity. Finally, this study is measuring the amount of a specific type of protein called interferon in your tumor tissue. Interferons are proteins made and released by the body in response to pathogens (disease causing agents) such as viruses, bacteria, or tumor cells. Interferons allow for communication between cells to trigger the protective defenses of the immune system that remove pathogens (disease causing agents) or tumors.
In this multicenter study, patients with resectable pancreatic carcinoma will be treated with (a) surgery followed by 6 cycles gemcitabine or (b) 4-6 cycles FOLFIRINOX followed by surgery followed by 4-6 cycles FOLFIRINOX. The overall survival between both therapies will be compared as well as other parameters.
This partially randomized phase I/IIb trial studies the side effects and best dose of IDO1 inhibitor INCB024360 in combination with DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein CDX-1401 and poly ICLC and to see how well they work in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who no longer have evidence of disease. Antigens (such as cancer/testis antigen [NY-ESO-1] protein) are found on many cancer cells. Vaccines made from NY-ESO-1 protein may cause the immune system to produce immune cells and antibodies that may help locate the NY-ESO-1 and/or cancer/testis antigen 2 (LAGE-1) antigens on cancer cells. By finding them, the immune system may then work to control or eliminate the remaining cancer cells. INCB024360 is an inhibitor of an enzyme called indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO). This enzyme is produced by tumor cells to disable immune cells, and limit the efficacy of immune attack. Giving DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein CDX-1401 with poly ICLC and IDO1 inhibitor INCB024360 may generate stronger and more long lasting anti-cancer immune responses in patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer in remission.
To evaluate the tolerability and safety of axalimogene filolisbac 1 x 10^10 colony forming units (cfu) administered with prophylactic premedication in repeating 3-dose study cycles in women with persistent, metastatic, or recurrent squamous and non-squamous carcinoma, adenosquamous, or adenocarcinoma of the cervix. To evaluate tumor response and progression-free survival (PFS) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and immune-related Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (irRECIST).
