Filter by:The study will integrate the efficacy of combining the anti programmed death-ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1) agent atezolizumab with the current standard of care in Stage IVB , persistent or recurrent carcinoma of the cervix, namely cisplatin or carboplatin/paclitaxel/bevacizumab. It will be explored the combination of bevacizumab plus atezolizumab, with no patient selection based on PD-L1 expression, allowing an all-comer assessment of atezolizumab activity. The study is a randomized open label phase III trial to investigate the impact of atezolizumab in combination with bevacizumab and cisplatin or carboplatin /paclitaxel chemotherapy on overall survival and will employ the intent to treat principle, and random assignment to one of the 2 arms will be balanced according to disease histology (squamous cell carcinoma vs adenocarcinoma), prior platinum therapy as a radiation sensitizer (no prior cis-Radiotherapy (RT) versus prior cis-RT) and chemotherapy backbone (cisplatin vs carboplatin). This trial will be run in an open label design due to the following considerations: the control arm is the standard of care for women diagnosed with metastatic, persistant or recurrent cervical cancer because of its impact on overall survival and the primary endpoint of the study is overall survival (OS), so blinding is not needed to ensure a robust assessment.
This phase Ib trials studies the side effects and how well talimogene laherparepvec works when given together with chemotherapy or endocrine therapy in treating patients with breast cancer that does not express the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) protein and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic), cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), or has come back (recurrent). Biological therapies, such as talimogene laherparepvec, use substances made from living organisms that may attack specific tumor cells and stop them from growing or kill them. Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and carboplatin, 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. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Drugs used as endocrine therapy, such as letrozole, anastrozole, exemestane, tamoxifen or fulvestrant, may lessen the amount of estrogen made by the body or may may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking estrogen from connecting to the cancer cells. Giving talimogene laherparepvec with chemotherapy or endocrine therapy may work better in treating patients with HER2-negative breast cancer.
This is a research study to evaluate the quality of life and amount of dry mouth experienced as a result of radiotherapy in subjects who have squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HN-SQCC). This study will compare the side effects experienced based on the method to plan radiotherapy, Margin Based or Robust.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of mirvetuximab soravtansine and rucaparib camsylate in treating participants with endometrial, ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back. Drugs such as mirvetuximab soravtansine are antibodies linked to a toxic substance and may help find certain tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Rucaparib camsylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving mirvetuximab soravtansine and rucaparib camsylate may work better in treating participants with recurrent endometrial, ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.
This is a Phase II, open-label, safety, pharmacodynamic and efficacy study of entinostat in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in subjects with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who have progressed on ipilimumab + nivolumab regimen. Prior to Phase II, a safety lead-in will be conducted to establish the RP2D of entinostat when used in combination with ipilimumab + nivolumab. Subjects will initially be treated with the combination of oral entinostat and intravenous (IV) nivolumab plus ipilimumab. Entinostat will be dosed weekly, and nivolumab and ipilimumab will be dosed every 3 weeks, for a total of four, 3-week cycles. Following these first four cycles, entinostat will continue to be administered weekly in combination with nivolumab every 2 weeks (ipilimumab will be discontinued), with treatment continued until disease progression or prohibitive toxicity. Anti-tumor activity will be assessed by radiological tumor assessments conducted at baseline and every 6 weeks thereafter using RECIST version 1.1.
This is an open label, phase I/II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 cycles of durvalumab without (Arm A) or with (Arm B) tremelimumab in association with ddMVAC as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with MIUC.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of cabozantinib and sunitinib when given to patients with metastatic (has spread) variant histology renal cell carcinoma (vhRCC), a type of kidney cancer. This is an investigational study. Cabozantinib and sunitinib are both FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of advanced kidney cancer, including vhRCC. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 84 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
This is an open label, non-randomized phase 2 study of the combination of pembrolizumab and cabozantinib to assess overall response rate (ORR), progression free survival at 6 months (PFS6), and overall survival (OS) in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) ineligible for cisplatin.
This partially randomized phase II/III trial studies how well, in combination with surgery, cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or hepatocellular carcinoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, 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 combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells than one type of chemotherapy alone.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if fulvestrant and abemaciclib can help to control low-grade serous ovarian cancer. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Fulvestrant and abemaciclib are both FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of several types of cancer. Their use in patients with low-grade serous ovarian cancer is investigational. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 15 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
