Filter by:Patients with resectable liver metastases of colorectal origin will be assigned to laparoscopic liver resection or conventional open liver surgery. Blood samples will be drawn preoperatively and 24 hours after resection. Determination of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 will be done to assess the stress response between open and laparoscopic liver resection (Elisa test). The Messenger Ribonucleic Acid (mRNA) of inflammation related factors (cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9)), angiogenesis related factor (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia induced factor-1 (HIF-1)) in tumor tissue and normal liver parenchyma will be detected by real-time real time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR).
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of INCAGN01876 when given in combination with immune therapies in subjects with advanced or metastatic malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of OMP-31M32 as a single agent or in combination with nivolumab. OMP-313M32 is an experimental anti-TIGIT antibody that was developed to block TIGIT from binding PVR allowing the body's T-cells to destroy cancer cells.
This study will access the safety and efficacy of the Viatar™ Oncopheresis System to remove a meaningful quantity of circulating tumor cells from the blood of subjects' with breast, colon or prostate solid tumor cancers in a single treatment. CTC reduction will be measured as the change in circulating tumor cells as determined before and after treatment.
To test the potential and acceptance of wireless activity tracking in palliative care patients leaving hospital care. Explorative study, collaboration project of the Clinic of Radiation-Oncology, University Hospital Zurich and the Wearable Computing Laboratory, Swiss Federal Institut of Technology. Patients receive a tracking bracelet and a smart phone in order to gather objective physical activity parameters as step count, sleep duration, heart rate, social activity patterns (e.g. making calls) as well as subjective ratings of pain and distress. Quality of life (QoL) will be captured by paper questionnaire. Correlations between patients' physical activity patterns and the pain and distress level assessed from electronic scales as well as QoL-questionnaire will be performed. Acceptance will be evaluated by quantitative questionnaires and interviews. The proposed study is meant to be preparatory work for an intervention study to test the effect of wireless monitoring of palliative care patients on fostering early interventions for symptom relief and support of QoL.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate tolerability of merestinib monotherapy or in combination with other anti-cancer agents in Japanese participants with advanced and/or metastatic cancer.
This study will assess the immunomodulatory activity of entinostat in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma receiving the PD-L1 inhibitor atezolizumab. The overall hypothesis is that entinostat will increase the immune response and anti-tumor effect induced by the PD-L1 inhibition by suppressing Treg function. We have chosen renal cell carcinoma that has been reported to respond to PD1/PD-L 1 inhibition. The schedule of entinostat is based on our previous experience with this agent. Based on our working hypothesis that low dose HDAC inhibitors will have a suppressive function on Tregs but not on T effector cells, the starting dose of entinostat will be 1 mg and will be escalated up to 5 mg rather than the 10 mg dose. The combination also with bevacizumab will provide an effective VEGF inhibition that may potentiate the immune response and anti-tumor effect induced by atezolizumab. The proposed dose and schedule for atezolizumab and bevacizumab has been shown to be well tolerated in prior Phase/I/II studies and is currently tested in a Phase III randomized study in patients with renal cell carcinoma with sunitinib as a control arm. The highest proposed dose level for entinostat (5 mg) represents 50% of the recommended Phase II dose for this compound as a single agent.
A phase 1, dose escalation study of evorpacept (ALX148) in patients with advanced solid tumors and lymphoma
This study is designed to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms leading to muscle wasting and metabolic abnormalities in skeletal muscle of cancer patients.
During this open label study patients will receive IMM-101 in conjunction with a recognised standard of care for metastatic or unresectable cancer for the patient's specific tumour type. The primary objective of the study is to provide safety data for IMM-101 in combination with a number of selected standard of care regimens.
