Filter by:Hypoxic cells in tumors have less oxygen than normal cells do, which leads to several changes inside the cells that lead to genetic chages making these cells resistant to treatment. The end result of this is increased tumor growth, spread of the tumor and poor outcome. Early studies have shown that [131]I-IAZA scans can help detect if there are hypoxic cells in the tumor. A [131]I-IAZA scan is a nuclear medicine test used to create pictures of the whole body after [131]I-IAZA is injected into a vein. Further scientific research will help understand how [131]I-IAZA is distributed throughout the body and how it can be used to treat hypoxic tumor cells. The purpose of this study is to : 1. Demonstrate the safety of [131]I-IAZA 2. To Determine the biodistribution and tumor avidity of [131]I-IAZA in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. 3. To determine the optimal imaging time of [131]I-IAZA SPECT. 4. To collect data from imaging and plasma sampling for radiopharmacokinetic analysis of [131]I-IAZA. 5. To determine whole body dosimetry of [131]I-IAZA in selected patients. 6. To evaluate tumor dosimetry of [131]I-IAZA in patients with positive uptake. 7. To determine the radiation dose accrued in hypoxic tumors.
Investigators will use Axumin PET/CT to help with the imaging modalities to determine the presence of occult retroperitoneal disease.
This is A Phase III, randomized, two-armed, patient-outcome assessor-data analyzer blinded, parallel active controlled non-Inferiority clinical trial study to evaluate efficacy and safety of AryoTrust (Aryogen Trastuzumab in comparison to Herceptin® (Genentech/Roche) in patients with Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2-Positive breast cancer. The main objective is to verify the non-inferiority of AryoTrust (Aryogen trastuzumab) vs. Herceptin® (Genentech/Roche trastuzumab), both given concomitantly with docetaxel after doxorubicin plus cyclophosphamide in the neoadjuvant setting according to pathological complete response (pCR) as primary objective and objective response (cOR), clinical complete response (cCR), clinical partial response (cPR), clinical stable disease (cSD), clinical progressive disease (cPD), breast conservation rate as Secondary objectives of this study. Evaluating the safety and immunogenicity of AryoTrust vs. Herceptin®, are also the other secondary outcomes. This study has two arms and 108 subjects will participate with a 1:1 allocation and receive mentioned treatment randomly.
The European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition in Norfolk is a population based prospective study of approximately 25,000 men and women resident in Norfolk United Kingdom. They were aged 39-79 years when first recruited from general practice age sex registers at baseline assessment 1993-1997. While part of a ten country half million participant European collaboration originally aimed to investigate diet and other lifestyle determinants of cancer, the objectives of the Norfolk cohort from inception were expanded to encompass the trajectory of health, ill health and mortality in a population over time and to examine the biological and lifestyle determinants of health and chronic disease.
This study will test an investigational drug called AZD1390 in combination with radiation therapy for the treatment of brain tumors. This is the first time AZD1390 is being given to patients. This study will test safety, tolerability and PK (how the drug is absorbed, distributed and eliminated) of ascending doses of AZD1390 in combination with distinct regimens of radiation therapy
Patients with gastrointestinal cancer often experience physical deconditioning; this could lead to an increased risk of complications, especially when they require major abdominal surgical procedures. It has been suggested that physical training in the preoperative period could improve their condition, reducing the risk of complications. Although this topic has been investigated, it has not been established yet the best short preoperative aerobic exercise program to enhance the aerobic capacity in patients with gastrointestinal cancer who are going to be to surgical primary management, and consequently, to help patients dealing with the physiological stress involved in a surgical intervention. Main objective: To determine the efficacy and safety of a 4 weeks preoperative exercise program in patients with gastrointestinal cancer scheduled for primary surgery. Materials and methods: This is a Phase II single arm clinical trial that will include patients between 45 and 70 years, with confirmed gastrointestinal cancer (gastric, hepatic, colon or rectal cancer), without electrocardiographic abnormalities, and scheduled for primary surgery in 4 weeks or more since recruitment All the enrolled patients will receive a basal aerobic capacity assessment with the 6-minute walk test. Then, two physical therapist will prescribe them a supervised and individualized aerobic training program in 3 sessions per week during 4 weeks. Each session will last 50 minutes and will increase the heart rate target weekly (from 50% to 70% of the maximum heart rate). The aerobic exercise will be carried on a treadmill or in a stationary bicycle. The post intervention aerobic capacity will be measured at week 3 and 4 with the 6-minute walk test. The main efficacy outcome will be peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak) and the safety outcomes will be exercise-related adverse events and the program adherence. This protocol was approved by the Instituto Nacional de Cancerología's Ethical Board
This is an open label, dose escalation, phase I study of the combination of MLN9708 plus Nelfinavir.
This is a phase I/II, non randomized, open-label, dose escalation study to investigate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of CB-103.
This pilot phase I/II trial studies how well a continuous positive airway pressure device or deep inspiration breath hold works in reducing tumor movement in patients undergoing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for lung cancer. The continuous positive airway pressure device works by blowing air into the lungs while patients wear a face mask or nozzle to help expand their airways and lungs. Deep inspiration breath hold is a standard technique that uses active breath-holding to restrict movement of the body. Using a continuous positive airway pressure device may work better than deep inspiration breath hold in lowering the amount of tumor movement during stereotactic radiation body therapy.
This is a phase Ib/II, open-label multicentre study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumour activity of AZD9150 plus durvalumab alone or in combination with chemotherapy in patients with advanced, solid tumours and subsequently in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
