Filter by:Evaluation of safety and tolerability of four intradermal injections given at two week intervals. In addition the efficacy of transferrinfection was determined by quantifying Interleukin 2 (IL-2), which was locally produced by the implanted, transfected allogenic melanoma cells at the injection sites. Further determination of tumor specific and clinical host responses induced or augmented by the treatment were determined.
To evaluate an iPad based photoimage analysis system (Moletest) for improving discrimination of benign from malignant suspicious skin lesions or moles. Specifically the objective is to demonstrate that the Moletest system is able with a sufficient degree of confidence (95%) to identify lesions which are benign
The use of MDS to access the presence of melanoma in the skin.
This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of every-3-week dosing (Q3W) of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants with advanced melanoma; participants may receive pembrolizumab for up to 2 years if deriving clinical benefit. The primary study hypothesis is that treatment with single agent pembrolizumab will result in a clinically meaningful overall response rate.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy when combining MK-3475 and INCB024360 in participants with certain cancers. This study was conducted in 2 phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2.
This is an exploratory prospective translational multicentre study. Melanoma is the 5th most common cancer diagnosed in Ireland and its incidence among women and men is above the European average. Following treatment the elimination of cancer cells ultimately occurs by the activation of apoptotic cell death pathways. The SYS-ACT approach builds on a combination of mathematical systems of modelling, quantitative biochemistry and cell biology, and specifically predicts the drug responsiveness of melanoma cell lines to various apoptosis-inducing treatments. The investigators propose to validate the SYS-ACT approach and application in a translational systems medicine study.
The BCCA Oncopanel is a clinical assay being developed to determine genotype status of a prospectively defined set of genes. The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility and effect on clinical-decision-making of the Oncopanel test. Eligible patients are those with advanced lung, colorectal, melanoma and GIST cancers and patients with diagnosed malignancies being considered for clinical trials.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA)-transfected peripheral blood mononuclear cells APN401 (APN401) in treating patients with melanoma, kidney, or pancreatic cancer, or other solid tumors that have spread to other parts of the body or that cannot be removed by surgery. There are factors in immune cells in the blood that inhibit their ability to kill cancers. Treating white blood cells with one of these factors in the laboratory may help the white blood cells kill more cancer cells when they are put back in the body.
Hu14.18K322A is a monoclonal antibody developed at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (SJCRH) that is made to bind to cancer cells that have a molecule called GD2 on their surface. Sometimes the human body will make an antibody to the therapeutic antibody (like hu14.18K322A) that is being given for treatment. These are called human anti-human antibodies (HAHA). When testing for HAHA in a previous cohort of patients who received hu14.18K322A, it was found that some patients tested positive for high levels of an antibody before receiving hu14.18K322A or any other anti-GD2 antibody. In this study, investigators would like to know more about the nature of this pretreatment antibody, how often is it present, and if in the laboratory it increases the killing of tumor cells. OBJECTIVES: - To determine whether pretreatment anti-therapeutic antibodies (PATA) represent antibodies reactive against an epitope (allotypic determinant) found on the anti-GD2 antibody hu14.18K322A - To determine if PATA increases the anti-tumor efficacy of anti-GD2 antibodies in vitro
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the anti-tumor activity of LGX818/MEK162 in combination with targeted agents after progression on LGX818/MEK162 combination therapy, as well as the safety and tolerability of the novel triple combinations.
