Filter by:This is a phase 1b study for patients with metastatic (cancer has spread to various parts of the body) melanoma and ovarian cancer. The main purpose is to examine the safety and efficacy of administering pembrolizumab after receiving chemotherapy, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and low dose interleukin 2 (IL-2). Patients will first receive either cyclophosphamide, or cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. These are chemotherapy agents that prepare the body to receive TILs. Patients are then infused with autologous TILs, a type of white blood cell that recognizes tumor cells and enters them, thereby causing tumor cells to break down. Following TILs infusion, patients will receive low-dose IL-2 therapy. This is a type of protein that is intended to activate and stimulate the growth of cells in the patient's immune system. If the patient meets the required criteria, they will be given pembrolizumab, a monoclonal antibody (drug made up of cloned immune cells) that is designed to block a protein called programed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) which will allow the body's immune system to kill the cancer cells.
CMP-001-002 is a Phase 1b study of CMP-001 administered to participants with advanced melanoma who are either receiving pembrolizumab, or who have previously received an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) therapy for advanced melanoma, and who have not responded (that is, immunotherapy resistant). This study will be conducted in two parts: Part 1 will consist of a Dose Escalation Phase and a Dose Expansion Phase - Dose Escalation Phase will be conducted to assess and identify a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of CMP-001 for subcutaneous (SC) administration - The Dose Expansion Phase is intended to further characterize the safety, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of the RP2D of CMP-001 administered SC in combination with pembrolizumab Part 2 will assess the safety and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of CMP-001, administered both SC and intratumoral (IT) when given in combination with pembrolizumab. Participants will continue treatment with CMP-001 in combination with pembrolizumab as long as they do not experience unacceptable toxicities and when continued treatment, is in the participant's best interest according to the Investigator.
This is a randomized non-blinded pilot study for patients with melanoma staging cT2N0M0 who are candidates for surgical resection. The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of randomizing participants with cT2N0M0 malignant melanoma to surgical treatment with 1cm versus 2cm margins. Study will try to determine overall survival for cT2N0M0 malignant melanoma after surgical treatment with 1cm versus 2cm margins.
Determine the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ACY-241 in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab in patients with unresectable Stage III/Stage IV melanoma.
This study will investigate the influence of maintenance therapy on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after combination therapy with BRAF/MEK (MAP-ERK kinase) inhibitors and PD-1 antibody pembrolizumab. In the safety phase I part the optimal dose of pembrolizumab in combination with BRAF inhibitor and MEK inhibitor and the safety of this three-drugs-combination regime will be determined. In the randomized part 2 different maintenance therapies will be tested for toxicity and efficacy. Patients with disease control after 6 months of triple therapy will be randomized to receive 2 different maintenance therapies further on, either continuation of triple therapy or administration of pembrolizumab alone.
Most patients with locally advanced or metastatic tumors succumb to their disease. Thus, there is a substantial need for novel therapeutic strategies to improve the outcome for patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma. Targeting the the Ras/Raf signalling pathway by BRAF and MEK inhibition as well as targeting immunologic checkpoint control with an antiPD-L1 antibody have emerged as treatment option. In this study the best timing for sequential use of both treatment options (BRAF/MEK inhibition and antiPD-L1 antibody) in patients with unresectable or metastatic BRAFV600 mutant melanoma will be assessed.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the treatment with NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant in combination with nivolumab is safe and useful for patients with certain types of cancer. The study also will investigate if NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant with nivolumab may represent a substantial improvement over other available therapies such as nivolumab alone. All eligible patients will receive NEO-PV-01 + adjuvant and nivolumab while on this trial.
This open label extension study will give an opportunity to the participants that have responded to the treatment with Pegylated-Interferon Alfa-2a (PEG-INF) or Roferon-A in prior clinical studies NO15753 (NCT00003542) for Renal Cell Carcinoma, NO15764 (NCT number not available) and NO16006 (NCT02736721) for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, and NO16007 (NCT number not available) for Malignant Melanoma.
Prospective, single-arm, cross-sectional, study to establish the effectiveness of MIAA to detect melanoma in pigmented lesions, compared to gold standard histological determination.
This is an open label Pilot study to evaluate the combination of Vigil™ and pembrolizumab in patients with incurable locally advanced or metastatic melanoma. Patients undergoing a standard of care surgical procedure (e.g., tumor biopsy, palliative resection) and meeting procurement eligibility criteria may have tumor harvested for Vigil™ vaccine manufacture. This study evaluates the hypothesis that vaccination with Vigil™ will induce cancer-specific T cell immunity in these patients. Addition of pembrolizumab to Vigil™ treated patients will further augment these immune changes on sequential biopsy when comparing post-Vigil™ but pre-PD-1 inhibitor to post-PD-1 inhibitor biopsies, and the combination therapy will be associated with reduction of tumor volume on clinical exam and/or imaging.
