Filter by:This is a first-in-children phase 1 trial using indoximod, an inhibitor of the immune "checkpoint" pathway indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), in combination with temozolomide-based therapy to treat pediatric brain tumors. Using a preclinical glioblastoma model, it was recently shown that adding IDO-blocking drugs to temozolomide plus radiation significantly enhanced survival by driving a vigorous, tumordirected inflammatory response. This data provided the rationale for the companion adult phase 1 trial using indoximod (IND#120813) plus temozolomide to treat adults with glioblastoma, which is currently open (NCT02052648). The goal of this pediatric study is to bring IDO-based immunotherapy into the clinic for children with brain tumors. This study will provide a foundation for future pediatric trials testing indoximod combined with radiation and temozolomide in the up-front setting for patients with newly diagnosed central nervous system tumors.
The aim of this study is to establish a common geriatric oncology medical database. The patients concerned are the patients having benefited from a geriatric oncology consultation in one of the participating centres. This database is designed with a view on the one hand to better describe to better understand this population and on the other hand to facilitate the conduct of future retrospective or prospective studies on this population. The constitution of this observatory of patients seen in consultation should facilitate the development of studies from the analysis of data collected, and occasional surveys by the rapid identification of cases. Data from this database could provide clinicians with valuable informative elements of descriptive epidemiology and concerning the organization of care in the geriatric oncology field.
This is an open-label Phase 1b/2 trial of lenvatinib (E7080) plus pembrolizumab in participants with selected solid tumors. Phase 1b will determine and confirm the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for lenvatinib in combination with 200 milligrams (mg) (intravenous [IV], every 3 weeks [Q3W]) pembrolizumab in participants with selected solid tumors (i.e. non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, melanoma or leiomyosarcoma). Phase 2 (Expansion) will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination in 7 cohorts at the MTD from Phase 1b (lenvatinib 20 mg/day orally + pembrolizumab 200 mg Q3W, IV).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a repeat dose administration of ATIR101 is safe and effective when infused in patients with a hematologic malignancy following a T-cell depleted stem cell graft from a related haploidentical donor. All patients are planned to receive two ATIR101 doses of 2×10E6 viable T-cells/kg, unless the second dose is reduced or halted for safety reasons.
To study BAT activity and energy metabolism in patients with cachexia induced by cancer or chronic disease.
The primary purpose of the trial is to determine the preliminary efficacy of therapeutic ultrasound in the treatment of pain and sensory disturbance related to chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy.
This randomized pilot trial studies vaccine therapy and pembrolizumab in treating patients with prostate cancer that does not respond to treatment with hormones (hormone-resistant) and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Vaccines made from deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), such as pTVG-HP plasmid DNA vaccine, may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may find tumor cells and help kill them. Giving pTVG-HP plasmid DNA vaccine and pembrolizumab may kill more tumor cells.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of YYB101, HGF-neutralizing humanized Mab, in advanced solid tumors patients who are refractory to standard therapy.
Examining the analgesic effect of ultrasound guided Pectoral Blocks on analgesic opioid consumption after surgical removal of breast tissue. This study's uniqueness is in the quantification of the analgesic effect of regional anesthesia on its influence to reduce the use of opioid substances, and the variety of side effects associated with them, which has yet to been described in literature.
A new mobile diagnostic and treatment unit is being developed by BCH to address the loss-to follow-up associated with the mobile screening program and demonstrate POC diagnosis by HRME. The mobile diagnostic and treatment unit will be equipped with the tools and infrastructure necessary to perform HRME, VIA, colposcopy, biopsy and treatment with cryotherapy. A team of a colposcopist, nurse, nursing assistant, and driver will staff the mobile diagnostic and treatment unit. The unit will travel to offer follow-up diagnostic and treatment services to women who have screened positive during a prior visit with the mobile screening unit. The mobile diagnostic and treatment unit will be constructed and maintained at BCH.
