Filter by:This phase I trial studies the effects and best dose of ONC206 alone or in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients with diffuse midline gliomas that is newly diagnosed or has come back (recurrent) or other recurrent primary malignant CNS tumors. ONC206 is a recently discovered compound that may stop cancer cells from growing. This drug has been shown in laboratory experiments to kill brain tumor cells by causing a so called "stress response" in tumor cells. This stress response causes cancer cells to die, but without affecting normal cells. ONC206 alone or in combination with radiation therapy may be effective in treating newly diagnosed or recurrent diffuse midline gliomas and other recurrent primary malignant CNS tumors.
For the retrospective data analysis, patients with genetic diseases of any age and, if available, other family members, for whom genetic analyzes were carried out between 10/2016 and 12/2020, should be included. This equates to approximately 13,000 records, minus combined analyzes in the same patient, an estimated 12,000 individuals.
This phase I trial investigates the safety of testosterone replacement therapy around the time of major urologic surgery (perioperative) in order to improve quality of life and post-operative outcomes such as decreased length of hospital stay, complications, and mortality in patients with low testosterone levels. Studies have demonstrated that patients undergoing testosterone replacement therapy have increased lean body mass, decreased fat mass and have improved physical function. Testosterone replacement therapy can also stimulate bone formation and may decrease the risk of fracture. Information from this trial may be used to support the incorporation of testosterone level testing and testosterone replacement into the perioperative treatment decision-making process.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of nemtabrutinib (formerly ARQ 531) in participants with hematologic malignancies of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/ small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), Richter's transformation, marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM).
This phase II trial studies the effect of transarterial chemoembolization in treating patients with uveal melanoma that has spread to the liver (liver metastases). Transarterial chemoembolization involves the injection of a blocking agent (gelatin sponge, ethiodized oil) and a chemotherapy agent (carmustine) directly into the artery in the liver to treat liver cancers. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carmustine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. transarterial chemoembolization with carmustine in combination with ethiodized oil and gelatin sponge may help cause the tumors in the liver to shrink or disappear.
Background. Survivors of childhood brain tumours have the poorest health-related quality of life of all cancer survivors due to the multiple physical and psychological sequelae of brain tumours and their treatment. Remotely delivered Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) may be a suitable and accessible psychological intervention to support young people who have survived brain tumours. Aims. This study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of remotely delivered ACT to improve quality of life among young brain tumour survivors. Method. This study is a two-arm, parallel group, randomised controlled trial comparing ACT with waitlist control. Participants will be aged 11-24 years and survivors of brain tumours who have completed cancer treatment. Participants will be randomised to receive 12 weeks of ACT either immediately or after a 12-week wait. The durability of treatment effects will be assessed by further follow-up assessments at 24-, 36- and 48- weeks. The DNA-v model of ACT will be employed, which is a developmentally appropriate model for young people. Feasibility will be assessed using the proportion of those showing interest who consent to the trial and complete the intervention. A range of clinical outcome measures will also assess physical and mental health, everyday functioning, quality of life and service usage. Acceptability will be assessed using participant evaluations of the intervention, alongside qualitative interviews and treatment diaries analysed thematically. Discussion. This study will provide an initial assessment of the value of remotely delivered ACT in supporting recovery and coping for young people after brain tumour treatment.
Immuno-Oncology (IO) therapies have revolutionized cancer therapy and are becoming the standard of care for many cancers. Monitoring how well IO therapies work against cancer is difficult due to the complexity of the immune system and the fact that an immune response may initially increase, rather than decrease, the size of a tumor. An early response marker would be beneficial to determine which patients should remain on a given treatment or combination of treatments, and which patients should seek other treatment options. 18F-LY3546117 is a radiolabeled tracer that binds to a specific protein (Granzyme B) that is found in the human immune system and is thought to trigger programmed cell death. It is thought that imaging Granzyme B activity in tumors and elsewhere in the body using a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan will allow doctors to monitor the progress of IO therapy.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of JAB-3312 administered in investigational regimens in adult participants with advanced solid tumors.
This is a retrospective/prospective observational multicentric trial on patients with bone metastases from NENs. General objectives: - To trace on a national scale the frequency of bone metastases in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) and their clinical management. - To correlate clinical and biological factors to clinical outcomes. - To centralise and to make homogeneous clinical, pathological, instrumental and therapeutic information. - To set up a database and to acquire biological material for studying predictive and prognostic biomarkers.
Part 1: Dose Escalation. The primary objective of Part 1 of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB-0742 in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Part 2: Cohort Expansion. The primary objective of Part 2 of this study is to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB-0742 in defined participant cohorts.
