Filter by:This study evaluates novel surgical approach in treating small renal masses. Half of participants will undergo hypotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (standard of care), while the other half will undergo normotonic zero-ischaemia partial nephrectomy (experimental method).
The purpose of the study is to test how well patients with advanced solid tumors respond to treatment with elimusertib (BAY1895344) in combination with pembrolizumab. In addition researchers want to find for patients the optimal dose of elimusertib in combination with pembrolizumab, how the drug is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and discharges the drug. The study medication, elimusertib, works by blocking a substance (ATR Kinase) which is produced by the body and is important for the growth of tumor cells. Pembrolizumab is an immunologic checkpoint blocker that promotes an immune response against the tumor.
Colon polyposis (the presence of multiple colon polyps) is very common with Cowden syndrome, as over 60% of patients have 50 or more polyps. In a previous clinical trial, some participants had reduction in the number of colon polyps with the use of the medication sirolimus for a very short time period. This study is investigating sirolimus and its effect on the number of colon polyps in patients with Cowden syndrome and polyposis over a 1 year period.
Phase 1 will evaluate the safety and tolerability at different dose levels of repotrectinib in pediatric and young adult subjects with advanced or metastatic malignancies harboring anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), receptor tyrosine kinase encoded by the gene ROS1 (ROS1), or neurotrophic receptor kinase genes encoding TRK kinase family (NTRK1-3) alterations to estimate the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or Maximum Administered Dose (MAD) and select the Pediatric Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D). Phase 2 will determine the anti-tumor activity of repotrectinib in pediatric and young adult subjects with advanced or metastatic malignancies harboring ROS1 or NTRK1-3 alterations.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability, safety and pharmacokinetic profile of ASP1948 in Japanese patients with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors. This study will also evaluate the antitumor effect of ASP1948.
CX1003 is a novel multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is designed to primarily inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR/MET). This study aimed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of CX1003 in patients with refractory advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This clinical trial is a Phase 1-2, open-label, sequential-group, dose-escalation and cohort-expansion study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of Zotatifin (eFT226) in subjects with selected advanced solid tumor malignancies.
In recent decades, an increasing number of oral anticancer medications (oral oncolytics) have been approved. Oral oncolytics now make up to 30% of the oncology market, and their use is continually expanding. Oral oncolytics can be a significant benefit for patients and providers. Patients who receive them often report a greater sense of control over their treatment, less interference with daily work and social activities, reduced travel time and costs, and the elimination of discomfort associated with an IV line. In rural areas, the oral route is crucial because the closest treatment center may be hours away and weather may complicate travel. Moreover, oral therapy is less invasive and reduces nursing time in infusion suites and risks to patients. However, making cancer treatments available in oral form transfers most of the responsibility for correct administration of the drug to the patient. The more complex the oral treatment regimen, the higher the risk of errors and non-adherence. Oral Oncolytics are high-risk and high cost drugs. Hence, with this transfer of responsibility comes the need to support patients in their adherence to the directed regimen and to effectively monitor them at home.
Patient blinded randomized prospective trial evaluating prostate biopsy quality of a novel biopsy needle.
This trial studies the frequency of cachexia in ambulatory cancer patients and the psychological burden in patients and their primary caregivers who are referred to an outpatient supportive care clinic. Studying how often loss of appetite and/or unintentional weight loss (cachexia) occurs in patients seen in the supportive care clinic may help researchers develop new ways to lower stress in patients who suffer from loss of appetite and weight loss as well as their family caregivers.
