The therapeutic scenario of metastatic renal cancer is undergoing a new revolution with the appearance of a novel therapeutic strategy after the antiangiogenic treatments, that is the immunotherapy, in addition to the approval of new active drugs in the following lines of treatment. There are currently two phase III trials in the first line of treatment in metastatic renal cancer that include different combinations of treatment based on immunotherapy. If results of these studies were positive, the therapeutic algorithm would be modified so that the remaining drugs would have to be repositioned within the therapeutic decision scheme. Sunitinib has previously demonstrated its benefit in patients who had failed to prior treatment with cytokines, so it is likely to continue to be effective in patients who have become resistant to treatment with new drugs based on immune checkpoint blockade. This phase II study is developed to evaluate the activity of sunitinib after treatment with immunotherapy-based regimens that are currently being developed within phase III clinical trials.
The primary aim of this study is to establish if it is possible for patients who have undergone major body surgery to complete a home based exercise training program and complete the assessments required to measure physical and cognitive function. If the investigators can establish that it is feasible to complete the training and test's then further research can follow using these methods to determine whether it is possible to improve the physical function of older patients undergoing major abdominal surgery in the period following surgery by using a simple exercise regimen that can be carried out at home. By targeting physical function in this way the investigators hope to determine if it is a method for improving frailty and well being. In turn it may also have a positive impact on health service provision.
This is an open-label, multi-center, randomized, Phase 1b, adaptive, clinical study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary therapeutic activity of RO6874281 in combination with atezolizumab with/without bevacizumab in participants with unresectable advanced and/or metastatic RCC. The study will consist of a dose-escalation part and an extension part.
The main purpose of this registry is to assess liver toxicity, treatment efficacy, and safety of DEB-TACE using anthracyclin loaded LifePearls for treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma allocated to TACE treatment.
Gemcitabine plus cisplatin have been the most studied and used anticancer agents in patients with local advanced and/or metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of urothelial tract even if clinical benefits and survival remains limited. The purpose of this study is to test in a randomized trial enrolling patients for comparing the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel plus S-1 with Gemcitabine plus cisplatin, in order to determine the most promising agents as the first line treatment of advanced and/or metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of urothelial tract.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) compared with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in patients with large and unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma staged BCLC A/B.
The incidence of Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is increasing worldwide. However, most of HCC cases were at advanced stage when the diagnosis established.Early diagnosis improves the prognosis.The study is intended to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of Protein Induced by Vitamin K Absence or antagonist-II(PIVKA-II). This study is a international multicenter study joined by several hospitals in China,Singapore,Thailand and Vietnam. Participants including healthy control,HCC,metastatic liver cancer,Hepatitis B virus(HBV) and liver cirrhosis are consecutively recruited into the cohort. All the serum samples are collected before any treatments and will be tested in single center in order to decrease bias. Serum samples were tested for PIVKA-II,alpha-fetoprotein and biochemical indexes including alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),gamma-glutamyl transferase(GGT),alpha-l-fucosidase(AFU),etc.
AIO-YMO/TRK-0415 (FORCE) is a Phase 2, open-label of nivolumab, patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with the necessity of radiotherapy of a metastatic site (e.g. bone) in 2nd-line or 3rd-line treatment for study group A and patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC without the necessity of radiotherapy in 2nd-line or 3rd-line treatment for study Group B.
The purpose of this study is to determine the interrelationship between cachexia, neural invasion and diabetes in patients with pancreatic cancer. Thus the investigators propose to identify the protein expression levels of Activin and Midkine in plasma of patients with different stages of pancreatic adenocarcinoma compared with healthy patients and to evaluate the possible correlation with diabetes, tumor size and tumor stage.
