Filter by:Dermalyzer is a device intended to be used as a decision support system for assessing cutaneous lesions suspected of being melanomas. The input from the device is not intended to be used as the sole source of information for diagnosis. Intended to be used by medical professionals. The service does not provide any other diagnosis. The study is a pre-marketing, prospective, confirmatory, first in clinical setting, pivotal multi-centre, non-interventional clinical investigation to evaluate the clinical safety, performance and benefit of Dermalyzer in patients with cutaneous lesions where malignant melanoma (MM) cannot be ruled out. Primary objective: The primary objective of the investigation is to determine the diagnostic precision of the device; to answer at which level the AI tool Dermalyzer can identify malignant melanomas among cutaneous lesions that are assessed in clinical use due to any degree of malignancy suspicion. Secondary objectives: A) To evaluate usability and applicability in clinical praxis of Dermalyzer by users (medical professionals), B)To gain an increased knowledge and understanding of how digital tools enhanced co-artificial intelligence can assist physicians with the right support for an earlier diagnosis of malignant melanoma. Exploratory objective: To explore health economic aspects of improved diagnosis support Methods: The subjects will be included from around 30 primary care centers in Sweden. If the subject's lesion(s) is suspected of melanoma or melanoma cannot be ruled out, the subject is asked to participate in the investigation. The investigator examines the subject's lesion(s) and makes the clinical assessment of the subject lesion(s) based on established clinical decision algorithms The investigator takes dermoscopy images according to standard of care and archives the image(s) according to clinical routine. The investigator decides on action, based on his or her MM suspicion (excision at the primary care center or referral for excision or referral to a dermatologist for further assessment). The investigator takes images of the lesion(s) again, this time with a mobile phone, containing the AI software, connected to a dermatoscope, and follows the on-screen instructions. The image is processed by the AI and the results are visible on the screen within seconds. The investigator records how he considers that the degree of suspicion of MM (higher vs lower) would have been affected by the AI SW result if it had been the governing body for the treatment. At study follow-up, the final tumor diagnosis from the histopathology results (melanoma/non melanoma) or by dermatologist assessment (if stated as undoubtedly benign), the degree of agreement between the true final diagmosis and the outcome of the AI decision support is determined, and the diagnostic accuracy in distinguishing melanoma from non-melanoma, in terms of sensitivity and specificity as well the positive and predictive value. The corresponding comparison is performed from the examining investigators estimated clinical degree of suspicion. The clinical investigation will collect information from the users, how participating users (investigators at the site) experience the usability of the AI decision support and attaching applications, from short surveys including the validated System Usability Scale.
Prospective evaluation of clinical outcomes in patients with resectable or metastatic BRAF+ melanoma treated with dabrafenib and trametinib in real practice
This research study is investigating Binimetinib and Belinostat in participants with metastatic uveal melanoma. The research study will test the study drugs to see if the combination of binimetinib and belinostat can make tumors shrink or stop growing.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of liver stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) given in combination with systemic therapy (ipilimumab and nivolumab) in adults with metastatic melanoma with liver metastases who are at significant risk of not benefiting from systemic therapy alone.
The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of niraparib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and a pathogenic or likely pathogenic tumor PALB2 (tPALB2) mutation.
The objective of this study is to construct a noninvasive approach using 68Ga-THP-APN09 PET/CT to detect the PD-L1 expression of tumor lesion in patients with lung cancer, melanoma and other solid tumor to identify patients benefiting from anti-PD-(L)1 treatment.
Phase 3, multicenter, international, open-label, randomized, 2-arm trial investigating the safety and efficacy of IO102-IO103 in combination with pembrolizumab as first-line treatment for patients with previously untreated unresectable or metastatic (advanced) melanoma. Patients will be stratified on the basis of the following factors; Disease stage: Stage III (unresectable) and IV M1a-b versus stage IV M1c-d and BRAFV600 mutation status: mutated vs wild type. All patients will receive pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks for a maximum of 35 cycles (up to 2 years treatment). Patients randomized to IO102-IO103 dual-antigen, immunotherapeutic arm will also be given IO102-IO103 Q3W with an additional dose given during the induction period on Day 8 of cycles 1 and 2. IO102 IO103 will thereafter be administered subcutaneous every 3 weeks during the maintenance period. Each patient can be treated for a maximum of 37 administrations in total (up to 2 years of treatment). The primary objective is to investigate the efficacy of IO102-IO103 in combination with pembrolizumab (compared with pembrolizumab alone) in terms of progression free survival.
Background: Aldesleukin is used to treat metastatic or advanced melanoma and renal cell carcinoma. Pembrolizumab is used to treat many cancers including melanoma. Researchers want to see if these drugs can be used together to produce better results in people with these types of cancer. Objective: To learn if the combination of pembrolizumab and aldesleukin can be used to treat metastatic or advanced melanoma and renal cell cancer. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years or older who have metastatic or advanced melanoma or renal cell carcinoma. Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Electrocardiogram - Blood and urine tests - Ability to perform tasks of daily living - Imaging scans (CT, MRI, PET, and/or X-rays). They may get a contrast agent to enhance the images. - Photographs, if needed Some of these tests will be repeated during the study. Participants will receive the study drugs by IV (a plastic tube that is put into a vein) for 4 days. A second cycle of treatment will be given 21 days later. They will stay in the hospital for each of the cycles in the first course of treatment. After 2 months, their cancer will be evaluated. They may receive a second course of pembrolizumab alone on Days 1 and 21. They will not have to stay in the hospital for this course. About 30 days after treatment ends, participants will have a safety follow-up visit. Then they will have visits every 3 months for up to 1 year, and then every 6 months for up to 4 years. Follow-up can also be done by phone, email, and mail. If their cancer gets worse, they will stop having visits. Participation will last for 5 years.
A Phase I Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerance and Pharmacokinetics of BAT4706 Injection in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors.
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is crucial in the management of malignant melanoma treatment and is currently performed by pre-operatively inject a colloid nanomaterial labeled with Technetium (99mTc) as radioactive tracer. Intra-operatively, Patent Blue (PB) will be injected to improve the visualization of the lymphatic tract. However, current pre-operative SLN mapping technique is associated with disadvantages as radiation exposure for both patients and health care staff and logistic challenges, because of time constraints due to short half-live time of 99mTc. Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) is a non-radioactive technique using a magnetic tracer (Magtrace® (Endomagnetics Ltd.)) to identify SLNs. Several studies showed that SPIO is non-inferior to dual tracing with 99mTc and PB in breast cancer patients. SPIO is expected to be non-inferior to dual tracing with 99mTc and PB in melanoma patients. However, further research is needed to demonstrate the use of SPIO in pre-operative MRI scanning. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic accuracy of pre-operative MRI scanning using SPIO compared to lymphoscintigraphy (LS) and single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) using 99mTc for identifying SLN status in melanoma patients.
