Filter by:This phase II pediatric MATCH trial studies how well tipifarnib works in treating patients with solid tumors that have recurred or spread to other places in the body (advanced), lymphoma, or histiocytic disorders, that have a genetic alteration in the gene HRAS. Tipifarnib may block the growth of cancer cells that have specific genetic changes in a gene called HRAS and may reduce tumor size.
Melanoma of the eye (ocular/uveal melanoma) is an uncommon type of cancer that is associated with a high mortality. It usually disseminates rapidly throughout the body, most commonly to the liver and lungs. In this study a combination therapy with immunotherapy (ipilimumab with nivolumab) and chemotherapy (melphalan) will be assessed for the treatment of disseminated uveal melanoma. Melphalan will be administered selectively to the liver via percutaneous hepatic perfusion, limiting the systemic effect of chemotherapy. With this treatment combination we aim to find a treatment for disseminated uveal melanoma, both in the liver as in the other organs.
This clinical study is an open-label, Phase 1, dose-escalation study to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of the drug product produced by Administering CRX100 alone and in combination with Pembrolizumab in advanced solid malignancies. Patients will be screened and evaluated to determine whether or not they meet stated inclusion criteria. Enrolled subjects will undergo leukapheresis to enable the ex vivo generation of CRX100. Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), malignant melanoma (excluding uveal melanoma), gastric cancer, triple negative breast cancer, and osteosarcoma. The study will start with monotherapy dose escalation followed by combination cohorts.
This is a phase III randomized, control, multi-center study of recombinant humanized anti-PD-1 mAb in combination with CTLA4 mAb for injection compared to high-Dose interferon in patients with acral melanoma that has been removed by surgery.
This study evaluates the clinical safety and tolerability, and the immunological effects of local intradermal injection of tremelimumab in patients with clinical stage I/II melanoma patients undergoing a sentinel node biopsy (SNB). Patients will be treated by local intradermal injections around the excision site of the primary tumor with escalating doses of 2, 5, 10 or 20 mg tremelimumab.
The value of 4D body-to-whole dynamic acquisition in FDG PET / CT to differentiate progression / pseudo-progression during the first therapeutic assessment (PET1) of metastatic melanoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI)to predict the progression of the disease..
The recent introduction of anti-PD-1 (nivolumab and pembrolizumab) and anti- PD-L1 (atezolizumab, durvalumab, avelumab) immune checkpoint inhibitors revolutionized oncological guidelines. Durable responses and prolongation of survival with these agents come at the price of the development of immune related adverse events (irAEs). Innovative tools are required in order to manage irAEs and to prevent their potential relapse, with the goal to improve the outcome of patients. In this regard, the Investigators aim to develop a multidisciplinary clinical pathway for cancer patients that are treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
The purpose of this phase I/Ib study was to determine the safety profile of NIZ985 (new formulation), and if it could be safely combined with spartalizumab or tislelizumab and to determine the appropriate dose and schedule for further study. Moreover, the study characterized the pharmacokinetic profiles of NIZ985 as a single agent and in combination with spartalizumab or tislelizumab and identified preliminary anti-tumor activity.
Comparison of the concordance of albumin nanocolloid and Lymphoseek® in the detection of lymph nodes of primary and secondary stage drainage by performing two lymphogammagrams
This is the first study which evaluates the different staging modalities 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose PET/CT (PET/CT) and diagnostic ultrasound (US) in a single patient cohort with malignant melanoma (MM). Previous analyses are ambivalent regarding the modality of choice. These analyses, however, compared separate patient cohorts for each modality. Inclusion criteria were a primary staging or re-staging of suspected or confirmed MM with one or more PET/CT and/or one or more US. Exclusion criteria were the non-existence of a malignancy or a malignancy other than MM, alone or in combination with an MM. The analysis includes the calculation of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy in a per-patient (PPA), per-examination (PEA) and per-lesion analysis (PLA). This was done individually for PET/CT and US, and in PLA also for the combination of these two radiological modalities. Furthermore, US was divided into US as a whole (wUS), peripheral lymph nodes (pUS) and/or abdomen (aUS). The principle equivalence of the two imaging modalities is set up as a null hypothesis H0 in all three analyses. As a further null hypothesis H0, the equivalence of the combined application compared to the sole applications of the two imaging modalities is asserted. The aim is the refutation of the null hypothesis H0 by significant differences in sensitivity and specificity.
