Filter by:This study will characterize the safety and tolerability and identify the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of subcutaneous (SC) ALKS 4230 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab.
This study is an open-label, Phase 1, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles of a novel fragment crystallizable (Fc)-engineered immunoglobulin G1 anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (anti-CTLA-4) human monoclonal antibody (botensilimab) monotherapy and in combination with an anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) antibody (balstilimab), and to assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in participants with advanced solid tumors. This study will also determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of botensilimab monotherapy and in combination with balstilimab.
First-in-human, Phase 1 study to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of TR1801-ADC in patients with select solid tumors that express c-Met.
This phase II trial studies how well low-dose radiotherapy works in treating bone pain in patients with multiple myeloma that has spread to the bone. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, gamma rays, neutrons, protons, or other sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Low-dose radiotherapy may be more convenient for patients and their families, may not interfere as much with the timing of chemotherapy, and may have less chance for short term or long-term side effects from the radiation.
This trial studies how well the use of a pre-surgical toolkit (OPTI-Surg) works in improving surgical care and outcomes in older participants with cancer. In many elderly patients, surgery can greatly affect physical condition and the ability to return to pre-surgery levels of physical functioning. Providing pre-surgical recommendations may help improve participants' recovery rate and functioning after surgery.
SHR-A1403 is a humanized IgG2, anti-C-Met monoclonal antibody conjugated to microtubule inhibitor (c-Met ADC).The aim of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of SHR-A1403,to define the dose limited toxicity(DLT)and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD),to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of SHR-A1403,to assess the antitumor activity of SHR-A1403 in patients with advanced solid tumors preliminarily and to recommend the reasonable dosage regimen of SHR-A1403 for the follow-up clinical trial.
This trial assesses patient perception of physician's compassion, communication skills, and professionalism during clinic visits through the use of videos and questionnaires.
Background: Central venous catheters are frequently used during cancer treatment with the aim of venepreservation. It can facilitate venous access for the safe administration of irritating or vesicant intravenous cancer medications and / or other fluids, to collect blood samples or to ensure accurate venous access for contrast during medical imaging. In addition, this means more comfort for the patient who needs to be punctured less peripherally. However, central venous catheters can also be a source of bloodstream infections and other complications, leading to increased morbidity and hospital costs (1). In our hospital, there is a general practice that if an infection of the device is suspected, the central venous catheter should be removed if antibiotics do not seem or prove to be effective. The objective of this trial is to assess the frequency of implanted port catheter-removal in cancer patients due to suspected infection of the device in a particular oncology center over a time period of seven years. Furthermore, evidence for real device infections (per/post-surgery) and the potential contribution of different (institution-specific) risk factors on device infection will be explored. There will be focused on implanted port catheters only, as this is the main used central venous access device within the oncological population. Trial objectives: The primary aim of this retrospective descriptive trial is to evaluate the frequency of implanted port catheter-removal in cancer patients due to suspected infection of the device, over a time period of seven years. The secondary aim is to examine whether the device infection could be confirmed during or after removal of the device. At last, the tertiary aim is to verify whether certain variables can be denoted as potential risk factors for central venous access infection. Selection of those variables of interest will be based on a thorough review of the literature and discussion with the responsible healthcare professionals.
Title: The efficacy of hemostatic powder TC-325 versus standard endoscopic treatment for gastrointestinal bleeding from malignancy; a multi-center randomized trial Background: Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding arising from malignant tumors is increasingly recognized as a result of oncological advances and improved detection methods. However, conventional endoscopic hemostatic methods are not reliable to control bleeding. It has a trend to be an effective hemostasis method for active GI bleeding from tumor, however, in view of the lack of RCTs and large-scale studies, the efficacy of TC-325 is still inconclusive. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of TC325 in endoscopic hemostasis treatment for malignant gastrointestinal hemorrhage.The 24-hour, 72-hour, 30-day, 90-day and 180-day rebleeding rate were assessed as the outcomes of treatment as well as 6-month mortality. Study design: Single-blinded, multi-center, randomized-control trial study The intervention (experimental) arm: TC-325 alone (define failure if continued bleeding despite application of 1 syringes) The control arm: Standard of (traditional) endoscopic treatments ** Crossover is possible. Inclusion criteria: Patients with acute upper or lower GIB from a lesion that is actively bleeding at index endoscopy (spurting or oozing) and is suspected to be malignant or diagnosed as malignancy from previous tissue diagnosis. Exclusion criteria: Patients less than 18 years old, previously included in the trial, ECOG score 3 or 4, pregnancy/lactation, and/or bleeding from GI sources suspected of not being malignant. If an endoscopist is unsure of the malignant likelihood of the lesion, he/she will not be enrolled. Sample size: 112 in total Duration of participation for each volunteer: 180 days
TP53 mutation is commonly associated with poor cancer patient prognosis yet no mutant p53 (mp53)-targeting regimen was clinically established. Here the investigators try to evaluate the side effect and treatment potential of DAC+ATO in p53 mutated high-risk AML/MDS patients. About 200 AML/MDS patients will be sequenced for TP53 sequence before recruitment. The investigators estimated about 5 patients, based on the reported p53 mutation frequency in AML/MDS, will be p53-mutated. In the trial, the investigators will selectively recruit the mp53 AML/MDS patients that are predicted to respond to DAC+ATO regimen with highest chance (based on the relevant basic studies). The investigators designate mutant p53-based clinical trials as 'PANDA (P53 AND Arsenic)-Trials'.
