Filter by:This study is meant to assess the use of intralesional IL-2 to modulate the immunological response to suspected melanoma, or melanoma in situ, in an effort to increase lymphocyte infiltration and decrease disease metastasis. Patients that are clinically diagnosed with suspected Melanoma or Melanoma in situ will be assigned to either a treatment or control arm. The treatment group will be subjected to two intralesional IL-2 injections, whereas the control group will be subjected to two intralesional injections of saline. The proteomic and metabolomic profiles of both groups will be analyzed using urine and blood samples in an effort to assess the systemic immunological response, if any, to the treatment. Also, upon disease confirmation and staging by a qualified pathologist, lesions will be assessed for lymphocyte infiltration using immunohistochemical methods. This study will determine whether pre-treatment of IL-2 on lesions (clinically diagnosed as melanoma or melanoma in situ) is effective in generating an adaptive immune response, and whether that immune response may play a role in preventing disease metastasis.
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of trigriluzole in combination with nivolumab and pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid malignancies or lymphoma that has spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Trigriluzole may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving trigriluzole in combination with nivolumab and pembrolizumab may work better at treating patients with solid malignancies or lymphoma.
This is a Phase IIb, multicohort, open-label multicenter study of combination immunotherapies in patients who have previously received treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors. All patients in Cohorts 1-4 will receive the combination treatment of PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor plus N-803 for up to 17 cycles. Each cycle is six weeks in duration. Some patients who experience disease progression while on study in Cohorts 1-4 may roll over into Cohort 5 and receive combination therapy with a PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor, N-803, and PD-L1 t-haNK cellular therapy for up to an additional 17 cycles. Each cycle is six weeks in duration. All patients will receive N-803 once every 3 weeks. Patients will also receive the same checkpoint inhibitor that they received during their previous therapy. Radiologic evaluation will occur at the end of each treatment cycle. Treatment will continue for up to 2 years, or until the patient experiences confirmed progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, withdraws consent, or if the Investigator feels it is no longer in the patient's best interest to continue treatment. Patients will be followed for disease progression, post-therapies, and survival through 24 months past administration of the first dose of study drug.
This is an open bi-centric prospective non-randomized study in patients with metastatic melanoma treated with a first line treatment of Nivolumab +/- Ipilimumab. The aim of the study is to characterize the immune cells modulations under anti-PD-1 +/- anti-CTLA4 and identify the differences between responder and non-responder patients.
In the BRIM-3 trial, which was conducted in patients with previously untreated advanced melanoma harboring the BRAF V600E mutation, vemurafenib, a potent inhibitor of mutated BRAF, was associated with prolonged overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared to dacarbazine. In the same setting, combined use of vemurafenib and cobimetinib, a selective inhibitor of MEK, yielded a significant improvement in PFS and response rate, compared to vemurafenib monotherapy, along with an advantage in OS, which did not cross the pre-specified significance bounderies (COBRIM trial). In treatment-naïve patients with mutated BRAF, both anti PD-1-based immunotherapy and BRAF-targeted agents are feasible therapeutic options, with the former and latter agents being associated with more durable and earlier responses, respectively. As suggested by National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines, the use of combined BRAF and MEK inhibitors in patients with progressive disease after immunotherapy, is also feasible, but it is not supported by category 1 evidence, in view of the lack of studies conducted in this setting. The main objective of this phase II trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combined use of vemurafenib plus cobimetinib in advanced melanoma patients who have received first-line systemic immunotherapy for inoperable locally advanced / metastatic disease.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well nivolumab or expectant observation following ipilimumab, nivolumab, and surgery work in treating patients with high-risk mucosal melanoma that is restricted to the site of origin without evidence of spread, has spread to a local and regional area of the body, or has come back. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sometimes the mucosal melanoma may not need more treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. It is not known if nivolumab or expectant observation following ipilimumab, nivolumab, and surgery may be better in treating patients with mucosal melanoma.
CK-301 (cosibelimab) is a fully human monoclonal antibody of IgG1 subtype that directly binds to Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) and blocks its interactions with the Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) and B7.1 receptors. The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of CK-301 when administered intravenously as a single agent to subjects with selected recurrent or metastatic cancers.
The purpose of this phase 2 study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of NIR178 in combination with PDR001 in multiple solid tumors and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and further explore schedule variations of NIR178 to optimize immune activation through inhibition of A2aR.
This open-label, non-randomized study will investigate the use of niraparib in patients with tumors known to have mutations in BAP1 and other select DNA damage response pathway genes.
A retrospective, observational study based on chart reviews for patients with advanced melanoma treated with nivolumab monotherapy prescribed as first-line therapy between June 2015 and June 2016, conducted in a representative sample of sites in Germany.
