Filter by:The primary objective of this Phase 1 clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and tolerability of a novel generation of gene-modified tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in a cohort of 10 patients aged 18-75 diagnosed with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. TILs will undergo transduction with the Interleukin-7 (IL-7) gene, for IL-7 production upon antigen engagement. Participants will undergo: - screening - tumor operation following autologous TIL production (incl. transduction) - takes approximately 4-6 weeks - admission for lymphodepleting chemotherapy (Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine phosphate), TIL infusion and high-dose IL-2 infusions for a maximum of 6 doses - Following treatment, patients will undergo systematic and regularly planned assessments, encompassing clinical evaluation, biochemistry analyses, and PET/CT scans. This thorough follow-up regimen will be continued until any of the following events occur: progressive disease, withdrawal from study, or end of study, which spans a duration of 15 years for trials involving genetically modified organisms.
This study is researching an experimental drug called REGN3767, also known as fianlimab (R3767), when combined with another medication called cemiplimab (each individually called a "study drug" or called "study drugs" when combined) compared with an approved medication called pembrolizumab. These types of study drug are collectively known as immune checkpoint inhibitors. The study is focused on participants with a type of skin cancer known as melanoma. The objective of this study is to see if the combination of fianlimab and cemiplimab is an effective treatment compared to pembrolizumab as peri-operative therapy in participants with high-risk melanoma. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from receiving the study drugs. - How much study drug is in your blood at different times. - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects). Antibodies are proteins that are naturally found in your blood stream that fight infections. - How administering the study drugs might improve your quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant adoptive cell therapy (ACT) via infusion of LN-144 (autologous TIL) followed by interleukin-2 (IL-2) after a nonmyeloablative lymphodepletion (NMA-LD) preparative regimen, followed by Pembrolizumab.
Single arm phase I/II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of bevacizumab, with ipilimumab plus nivolumab, and hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (hSRT) in patients with symptomatic melanoma brain metastases (MBM).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity and efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of GME751 compared with Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in subjects with resected advanced melanoma requiring adjuvant treatment with pembrolizumab.
Clinical trials, specifically focused on stage IV melanoma, are crucial in assessing the safety and efficacy of new treatments for this disease. These trials serve as fundamental instruments in determining whether emerging medications outperform standard therapies, providing compelling evidence to support wider implementation. The main goal is to thoroughly scrutinize trial completion rates and voluntary withdrawals among this particular group of patients.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to learn about patient quality of life and experience and medical information needs during uveal melanoma post-treatment surveillance. Participants have previously undergone treatment for non-metastatic uveal melanoma and have integrated a oncological and / or ophthalmic surveillance protocol based on their individual genomic and / or clinical risk of recurrence. The main objectives it aims to assess are: - To evaluate the effect of satisfaction with communication with the oncologist/ophthalmologist during the oncology/ophthalmology surveillance visit 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) on the overall level of health status/quality of life (QoL). - To explore the impact on psychosocial resources and needs such as fear of recurrence, anxiety and depression 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) and 12 months after the start of surveillance (T2). - To document patients experience of care and communication during the first 12 months of surveillance. Participants will fill in quality of life questionnaires at two timepoints. A sub-sample will be offered to participate in qualitative research interviews. Researchers will compare data from patients at low risk of recurrence with those at high risk of recurrence to see if there are significant differences with regards to quality of life, satisfaction with care and medical information needs.
This is a phase II open-label, single-arm, multi-center study of tebentafusp in HLA- A*0201 positive previously untreated (1L) untreated metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) with an integrated circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) biomarker.
Background: A type of drug called monoclonal antibody immune checkpoint inhibitors are often used in cancer treatment. These drugs help the body s immune system fight cancer by blocking proteins that cause cancer cells to grow. One of these drugs (atezolizumab) is approved to treat certain cancers. Researchers want to find out if lower doses of this drug might provide the same benefit with fewer adverse effects. Objective: To test different doses and timing of atezolizumab for people with cancer. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with cancer that has spread locally or to other organs. They must be eligible for treatment with the study drug. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests and imaging scans. They will provide a sample of tissue from their tumor. Atezolizumab is administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will take this drug alone or combined with other drugs prescribed for their care. The first 2 treatments will be done per the FDA recommended dose and schedule. Before administering the second dose of the study drug, researchers will check the level of the drug in the participant s blood. Depending on those results, their 3rd dose will be scheduled 2 to 6 weeks later. For the 3rd dose of the study drug, participants will switch to the FDA minimum dosage. Dosages of any other drugs will not change. Researchers will continue to test the levels of the drug in participants blood before each treatment for 16 weeks. After that, these levels will be tested every 3 months. Study treatment may last up to 2 years.
This is a phase II, open, single-center study to explore the efficacy and safety of Envafolimab combined with recombinant human endostatin, temozolomide and cisplatin in the treatment of mucosal melanin. At the same time, the tissue and peripheral blood samples of the patients were taken for the determination of PD-L1 expression, ctDNA and other biomarkers and the results were analyzed to find the predictive factors of prognosis or curative effect. Patients with advanced mucosal melanoma who met the inclusion criteria but did not meet the exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study and received 6 cycles of Envafolimab combined with recombinant human endostatin, temozolomide and cisplatin. Patients without progression were then maintained with Envafolimab combined with recombinant human endostatin until disease progression, intolerable adverse reactions, patient death or withdrawal of informed consent. The longest administration time of recombinant human endostatin was no more than 1 year, and that of Envafolimab was not more than 2 years. The efficacy was evaluated for the first time at 6 weeks, every 6 weeks for the following year, and then every 12 weeks until the end of progress or treatment. The examination method was consistent with the baseline; it was expected to be included in the group for 18 months, and clinical observation until disease progression and patient death.
