Filter by:Currently, the first line treatment options for surgically unresectable metastatic melanoma includes anti-PD1 agents such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab. In western countries, UV associated cutaneous melanoma has 30-40% response rates to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, response rates are lower in Asians. The reason for this discrepancy is attributed to the difference in subtypes since most of the Asian patients are mostly subgrouped as acral lentiginous or mucosal types that are unrelated to UV exposures. Thus, there is an unmet need to bolster the effect of ICIs in these patients. The combination of radiotherapy with ICIs have been demonstrated by several pre-clinical studies. High dose radiation has shown to promote STING pathway which activates dendritic cells needed in priming phase. In addition, low dose radiation may activate macrophage differentiation. These mechanisms in turn may enhance responses to immunotherapy. In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of anti-PD-1 blockade in combination with radiotherapy in surgically unresectable, treatment naive metastatic melanoma.
Subjects with resectable melanoma will receive neoadjuvant nivolumab followed by surgical resection. Post-operatively, subjects will receive open-label treatment with up to 1 year of adjuvant nivolumab or ipilimumab plus nivolumab as determined by pathologic response at the time of resection.
This phase I trial studies the best dose of sonidegib when given together with pembrolizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with solid tumor that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Sonidegib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving sonidegib and pembrolizumab may work better than standard treatment in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.
This research study is studying different immunotherapy regimens as a possible treatment for stage III or IV resectable melanoma.
This is a monocentric, open label, randomized Phase II study in patients with brain metastasis from melanoma, lung or breast cancer, who require treatment with high-dose dexamethasone, as defined as a minimum of 8 mg daily based on the clinician judgment, for at least three weeks, with or without radiation therapy. The aim is to investigate the metformin efficacy in preventing the onset of glucocorticoid-induced diabetes and other metabolic perturbations in patients with brain metastases from melanoma, lung or breast cancer.
This is a Phase II, open-label, single arm study. The study will consist of an assessment of the safety and tolerability of tocilizumab administered concurrently at 4 mg/kg every 6 weeks for 5 doses in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab for four induction doses to week 12, then maintenance nivolumab alone up to one year to patients with advanced melanoma. Treatment will be divided into induction and maintenance phases. It is anticipated that this clinical study will inform the use of this 3-drug combination for further phase II and/or phase III clinical testing. The trial will include an assessment of the pharmacodynamic activity of tocilizumab administered in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab.
This is a first-in-human, open-label, multi-centre, phase I/IIa study to characterize the safety and clinical activity of ATL001, autologous clonal neoantigen reactive T cells (cNeT) administered intravenously in adults with metastatic or recurrent melanoma.
To obtain evidence of antitumor effect of CX-072 in combination with anticancer therapy in adult patients with solid tumor based upon overall response rate by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)
TQB2450 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1), which prevents PD-L1 from binding to PD-1 and B7.1 receptors on T cell surface, restores T cell activity, thus enhancing immune response and has potential to treat various types of tumors.
To determine whether special tumor fighting cells that is taken from participants' tumors and grown in the laboratory and then given back to the participant will fight the participant's cancer when their immune system is suppressed from attacking these special tumor fighting cells. This is called transfer of autologous (they came from you) tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (the cells that have been grown in the laboratory. Participants getting these cell infusions will also be treated with interleukin-2 (IL-2).
