Filter by:The purpose of this study is to examine how different messages about risk of melanoma can impact the way people protect themselves against developing these diseases.
A reflectance confocal microscope is a machine which is able to examine the upper layers of the skin painlessly and without the need for taking a biopsy. We would like to examine the images taken by the confocal microscope to see if it can help more accurately identify lesions which are worrying rather than a benign mole. We are performing this study in patients in whom we have recommended excising a mole to exclude a cancer. If the results of the study show that the confocal microscope can help more accurately diagnose Melanomas then this would reduce the number of biopsies that are taken that turn out not to be cancerous (ie unnecessary biopsies).
This study will be conducted with the aim of estimating the effectiveness, safety, patterns of use of nivolumab, and characteristics of patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma, treated with nivolumab monotherapy in the ATU setting.
The objective of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of CAB-ROR2-ADC in solid tumors
This trial is a phase 1/1b study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of APX005M in combination with nivolumab and cabiralizumab. The phase 1 dose escalation portion of the study will enroll patients with advanced solid tumors melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in 6 cohorts to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of APX005M. The phase 1b dose expansion portion will study the triple drug combination separately in the three disease cohorts: melanoma, NSCLC, and RCC.
The main purpose of this study is to determine the risks and benefits of ceritinib (ZYKADIA) given in combination with trametinib (MEKINIST) in patients who have progressed on prior melanoma therapy.
The main objective of this project is to perform a longitudinal monitoring of BRAF and NRAS cell-free DNA in a large cohort of metastatic melanomas patients before treatment and during the follow-up. Results will be compared with clinical data as imaging (based on RECIST criteria) and the activity of lactate dehydrogenase in serum (LDH).
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of novel spartalizumab (PDR001) combinations in previously treated unresectable or metastatic melanoma
Background: Exome sequencing can identify certain gene mutations in a person's tumor. This can then be used to create cancer treatments. In this study, researchers will make a treatment called a messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine. The vaccine might cause certain tumors to shrink. Objective: To see if the mRNA vaccine is safe and can cause metastatic melanoma or epithelial tumors to shrink. Eligibility: People 18-70 years old with metastatic melanoma or epithelial cancer Design: Participants will be screened under protocol 99-C-0128. Participants will provide samples under protocol 03-C-0277: Participants will provide a piece of their tumor from a previous surgery or biopsy. Participants will have leukapheresis: Blood is removed through a needle in one arm and circulated through a machine that takes out the white blood cells. The blood is then returned through a needle in the other arm. Participants will have many tests: Scans and x-rays Heart and lung function tests Blood and urine tests Participants will receive the mRNA vaccine every 2 weeks for up to 8 weeks. They will get the vaccine as an injection into the upper arm or thigh. They may receive a second course of vaccines if the study doctor determines it is needed. Participants will have follow-up visits approximately 2 weeks after their final vaccine, then 1 month later, then every 1-2 months for the first year, and then once a year for up to 5 years. Each visit may take up to 2 days and include: Physical exam Blood tests Scans Leukapheresis at the first visit
The primary objective of this single arm phase 2 trial is to assess the response rate [complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)] of sequential therapy of pembrolizumab followed by HD IL-2 in subjects with stage IV malignant melanoma. Response assessment will be performed after pembrolizumab therapy, and response reassessment will be performed after HD IL-2 therapy using revised RECIST 1.1.
