Filter by:Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important method for the treatment of hematological diseases and cyclophosphamide is a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent for transplant pretreatment. The incidence of severe cardiovascular events after high-dose cyclophosphamide exposure ranges from 7% to 28% with mortality from 11% to 43%. Thus, an non-invasive, sensitive and reliable method in detecting cardiac function is significant to balance the cardiac risk and the potential cancer treatment benefits. In previous studies, we demonstrated that strain values analyzed by speckle tracking echocardiography decreased significantly after high-dose cyclophosphamide exposure, even though left ventricular ejection fraction remained stable and within normal range. We follow up the hematopoietic cell transplantation patients with cyclophosphamide: to analyze the cut-off values of the parameters of speckle tracking multilayer analysis in predicting early cardiotoxicity induced by cyclophosphamide; to detect the cut-off values of the plasma miRNAs levels in predicting early cardiotoxicity induced by anthracycline. The purpose of our study is to find out non-invasive, reliable and sensitive echocardiographic parameters and plasma biomarkers for early detection and prediction cyclophosphamide -induced cardiac toxicity and to be helpful to target patients at high risk of cardiotoxicity, who could benefit from closer monitoring or earlier initiation of cardioprotective therapy.
A Phase I Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerance and Pharmacokinetics of BAT4706 Injection in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors.
The study is being conducted to determine the dose limited toxicity(DLT) and maximum tolerated dose(MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose(RP2D) of HRS2398 in subjects with advanced malignant tumor ; The second objectives is to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy and PK profile of HRS2398 in subjects with advanced malignant tumor ; Exploratory cohort is to explore the relationship between gene mutation and efficacy and resistance mechanisms.
Natural killer cells (NK cells) are derived from bone marrow lymphoid stem cells, which are a type of lymphocytes that can non-specifically kill tumor cells and virus-infected cells without pre-sensitization. NK cells can not only directly kill malignant diseased cells, but also participate in the regulation of immune cell response and play a role in a variety of tumor immunotherapy strategies. The 2-year survival rate of NK cells combined with stem cell therapy for patients with hematological malignancies reached 36%, which is significantly higher than the 2-year survival rate (about 15%) of stem cell therapy alone, which can extend the disease-free survival period of leukemia patients by an average of 1.5 years. Relapsed and refractory leukemia can achieve a complete remission rate of up to 40%.
This is a multi-center, open label, phase Ib/II clinical study of AK109 and AK104 to evaluate the safety, tolerability, effectiveness, pharmacokinetic characteristics in advanced solid tumors .
Cervical cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide, and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) can progress to cervical cancer. Therefore, timely treatment of CIN is critical in preventing the occurrence of cervical cancer. With the implementation and promotion of the World Health Organization's 2030 Global Strategy for the Elimination of Cervical Cancer, an increasing number of women are detecting and treating CIN at an earlier stage. Common treatment methods include ablation treatment and excision treatment, but for women who are planning to have children, the risk of cervical insufficiency and pregnancy complications is greatly increased after excisional treatment, so ablation treatment seems to be a better choice.
This study is examining whether a care transition intervention, CONTINUUM (CONTINUity of care Under Management by video visits), consisting of a supportive care-focused video visit with an oncology nurse practitioner (NP) within three business days of hospital discharge, may improve post-discharge transitions of care for recently hospitalized patients with advanced cancer.
This phase II trial tests whether combination of talazoparib and temozolomide works to shrink tumors in patients with rare cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Talazoparib is an inhibitor of poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARP), an enzyme that helps repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) when it becomes damaged. Blocking PARP may help keep cancer cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It damages the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. Giving talazoparib in combination with temozolomide may help shrink advanced rare cancers or stop them from growing.
Background: The presence of T-lymphocytes in resected tumor samples derived from long-term survival patients and the fact that reinvigoration of their functionality through the administration of specific immune-therapies can lead to remarkable antitumor responses supports that lymphocytes play a critical role in cancer immunity. Adoptive cell therapy using tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes product (TIL-ACT) is a well-established combination therapy currently under study in several world reference centers, using an autologous cell product without genetic modifications. This cell product consists of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), which are collected from the patient and expanded in the lab under specific conditions to enhance its antitumoral efficacy before reinfusion in the same patient. However, this cell product alone does not achieve adequate efficacy, and a combination of both previous non-myeloablative lymphodepleting (NMA-LD) chemotherapy and subsequent cytokine therapy (specifically IL-2) is needed to support the expansion of the infused cells. The investigators hypothesize that TILs enriched for neoantigen recognition are superior to unselected TILs at mediating tumor regression in patients with epithelial tumors and even other solid tumors where immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is approved and used as part of standard therapy. The investigators propose to manufacture a T-cell product composed of TILs that are selected based on their ability to recognize patient-specific neoantigens and to use these to treat patients with metastatic, refractory, epithelial cancers, as well as ICB-resistant solid tumors. Furthermore, it also proposed to study the tumor and T cells at baseline and after treatment to investigate whether specific phenotypic and functional traits may be associated with clinical outcome. Primary objective: To evaluate the safety and the tolerability of ex vivo next generation neoantigen-selected Tumor-infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) in patients with metastatic or unresectable epithelial tumors and immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) resistant solid tumors. Secondary objectives: - To determine the success in producing active specific TILs from our target patients. - To evaluate the initial clinical activity of the NEXTGEN-TIL products in our target patients.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the CONVIVO confocal endomicroscope in discriminating between normal and abnormal tissue in vivo during brain tumor surgery. The interpretation of intraoperative images obtained in situ will be tested against conventional histologic evaluation of targeted biopsies from imaged tissue. The study team hypothesize that there will be a high degree of correlation between images obtained with the CONVIVO system and conventional histologic interpretation.
