Filter by:This is an external control, observational, retrospective study designed to compare clinical outcomes for pralsetinib compared with best available therapy for patients with RET-fusion positive advanced NSCLC.
This is a single center, open-label, nonrandomized, Phase 1b, dose-escalation study designed to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CKD-516 in combination with durvalumab and evaluate the safety and tolerability profile, efficacy of CKD-516 and durvalumab treatment.
The purpose of this study is to compare two different techniques to perform the standard of care surgery to treat prostate cancer. This surgery is called robotic radical prostatectomy. There are two robotic surgical systems approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to perform this surgery. First system is called the Da Vinci ® Xi system. With this system, six small incisions are made during the surgery. Second system is called the Da Vinci ® SP system. With this system a single incision is made during the surgery. Same surgery is done with each surgical system. This study aims to understand whether a single incision surgery ends up with better recovery after surgery.
This study develops and tests an instrument to measure opportunity costs called the Oncology Opportunity Cost Assessment Tool (OOCAT) in cancer patients. Patients experience significant costs, both direct financial as well as indirect costs, associated with seeking cancer treatment. While the direct financial impact of care on patients is receiving increased attention, other important consequences, such as opportunity cost, remain largely unmeasured. Opportunity cost is an economics term that refers to the loss of potential benefits from other options when one option is chosen - if resources are used for one purpose, they are no longer available for the next best option. The information and knowledge gained from this study may help researchers develop the OOCAT, which may allow them to understand the opportunity cost of treatment for each patient. The OOCAT may then be used to determine not just the best medications for patients, but also the best comprehensive treatment plan that will allow them to get the right treatment in the right place at the right time.
The study of LVGN6051-201 is designed to use a bridging dose escalation to quickly establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended dose for expansion (RDE) as well as the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D) of LVGN6051, both as a single agent (monotherapy) and in combination with a fixed dose of anti-PD-1 antibody (Pembrolizumab) in the treatment of advanced or metastatic malignancy.
This phase Ib trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of talazoparib when given in combination with palbociclib, axitinib, or crizotinib in treating patients with solid tumors that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). PARPs are proteins that help repair damaged DNA, the genetic material that serves as the body's instruction book. PARP inhibitors, such as talazoparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Palbociclib, axitinib, and crizotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving talazoparib in combination with palbociclib, axitinib, or crizotinib may help control locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This trial compares cryoablation combined with stereotactic body radiation therapy to stereotactic body radiation therapy alone to see how well they work in treating patients with pain from cancer that has spread to the bones (bone metastases). Bone is a common site of metastasis in advanced cancer, and bone metastases often result in debilitating cancer-related pain. The current standard of care to treat painful bone metastases is radiation therapy alone. However, many patients do not get adequate pain relief from radiation therapy alone. Another type of therapy that may be used to provide pain relief from bone metastases is cryoablation. Cryoablation is a procedure in which special needles are inserted into the tumor site. These needles grow ice balls at their tips to freeze and kill cancer cells. The goal of this trial is to compare how well cryoablation in combination with radiation therapy works to radiation therapy alone when given to cancer patients to provide pain relief from bone metastases.
Background: People with advanced cancer are usually treated with surgery, radiation, immunotherapy drugs, or chemotherapy drugs. Talazoparib is a type of drug called a PARP inhibitor. It prevents DNA repair and has shown anticancer activity in early clinical trials. Researchers want to learn more about how it works in different types of patients. Objective: To find out how talazoparib works in tumor cells and if it works differently in people who have or have not already been treated with another PARP inhibitor. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, who have a gene variation that changes how their tumors are able to repair DNA Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam. Their medical records will be reviewed. Their ability to do daily activities will be assessed. They will give blood samples. Screening tests will be repeated during the study. Participants tumors will be measured. They will have tumor biopsies. Participants samples will be used for gene testing. Participants will be put into 1 of 2 groups: those who have never had a PARP inhibitor and those who have had a PARP inhibitor. Participants will take talazoparib by mouth daily. It is given in cycles that are 4 weeks (28 days) long. They will get the study drug for as long as their cancer does not get worse, they can tolerate the side effects, and they choose to stay on the study. After treatment ends, participants condition will be followed. They will be watched for side effects. They will be contacted once about 30 days after treatment ends.
Testing the efficacy of the Jalosome® Soothing gel in 2 or 3 grade radiodermatitis healing in oncological patients. The investigators would like to know also the efficacy of the device on quality of life and pain.
This study is a clinical study of CD276 CAR-T in the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumors. The purpose is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of targeting CD276 auto-chimeric antigen receptor T cells in the treatment of CD276-positive advanced solid tumors.
