Filter by:The available data indicate that Ceritinib has substantial anti-tumor activity in patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and ROS1 rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This trial will investigate the potential of Ceritinib in patients with advanced gastrointestinal malignancies with ALK and ROA1 rearrangement, and for whom there is no available therapeutic option.
The study is being done to test the safety of a cancer drug called larotrectinib in children. The cancer must have a change in a particular gene (NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3). Larotrectinib blocks the actions of these NTRK genes in cancer cells and can therefore be used to treat cancer. The first study part (Phase 1) is done to determine what dose level of larotrectinib is safe for children, how the drug is absorbed and changed by their bodies and how well the cancer responds to the drug. The main purpose of the second study part (Phase 2) is to investigate how well and how long different cancer types respond to the treatment with larotrectininb.
This screening study is intended for men and women ≥ 18 to ≤ 75 years of age who have advanced solid or hematologic malignancy. The study will assess a subject's human leukocyte antigen (HLA) subtype and tumor antigen expression profile. Based on the results, it will be determined if a subject is eligible to be considered for Adaptimmune sponsored clinical trials testing the safety and efficacy of genetically changed T cells targeting specific tumor antigens. No treatment intervention will occur as part of this screening study. Upon enrollment, subjects will be required to provide a blood sample for HLA subtype analysis. If the results of the analysis match the HLA-A subtypes noted in the inclusion criteria and do not express the HLA subtypes that are exclusionary for the available interventional clinical trial(s), then the subject will be required to provide either an archival tumor specimen or fresh tumor tissue biopsy. The tumor specimen will be screened at a central laboratory for the expression (protein or gene) of multiple antigens which may include, but are not limited to MAGE-A4. Based upon the results of these diagnostic analyses, if eligible, subjects will be referred to an appropriate available interventional clinical trial(s) at the discretion of the Investigator. Following screening, tumor samples will be retained by Adaptimmune for the purpose of developing and validating in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay(s) for antigen expression profiling which is required for regulatory approval of a new therapeutic product indication.
Prospective, multicenter, single-arm, non-controlled, 60 subjects enrolled and 14 days follow up for evaluate the safety and utility of VelaTM XL thulium laser.
Sorafenib is an oral anticancer drug and inhibits multiple protein kinases important for tumor growth and metastases, including VEGFR, PDGFR, and RAF kinases. In daily clinical practice it is currently used at a dose of 400 mg twice daily in a continuous schedule. In this phase I study patients will be treated with a new dosing schedule of sorafenib: i.e. a high-dose, pulsatile schedule. The tolerability and safety of this new schedule is examined in exposure escalation cohorts based on a target plasma AUC0-12h (area under the curve). Exposure escalation cohorts are used instead of conventional dose escalation cohorts because the effect of a drug is dependent of its AUC levels and large differences in plasma sorafenib AUC0-12h have previously been shown between patients treated at the same dose level. Using pharmacokinetic monitoring, the sorafenib dose will be adjusted to a target plasma AUC0-12h. The escalation cohorts consist of 3-6 patients per exposure level starting with a target plasma sorafenib AUC0-12h level of 25-50 mg/L/h. After the determination of the maximum tolerated AUC0-12h, 10 additional patients will be entered into an expansion cohort. In the expansion cohort the patients will be treated with a weekly pulse of sorafenib at the maximum tolerated AUC0-12h for further assessment of safety and preliminary exploration of efficacy.
Determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of VIP152 (BAY 1251152) as monotherapy or in combination in patients with solid tumors and aggressive non-hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
Absolute voice rest is commonly prescribed after vocal fold surgery, also known as phonomicrosurgery, for benign vocal fold lesions. This is thought to decrease scarring of vocal folds, which could result in increasing tissue stiffness and limitations in optimal vocal outcome. Unfortunately there is no standardized protocol as to how long patients should rest their voice after phonomicrosurgery. To date, there are no studies in the literature directly comparing the impact of short-term and long-term voice rest on vocal fold healing and voice outcome after phonomicrosurgery.
The main purpose of this 3-part study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug known as LY2880070 in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
In support of the US marketing application for 5-ALA, this single arm trial is being conducted to establish the efficacy and safety of Gliolan® (5-ALA) in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent malignant gliomas. The hypothesis of the study is Gliolan® (5-ALA), as an adjunct to tumor resection, is safe and that real-time tissue fluorescence correlates with malignant histopathology. The primary objective in this single arm study is to define the positive predictive value (PPV) of Gliolan®-induced PPIX fluorescence for malignant tumor at the time of initial resection and first use of FGS by taking a biopsy of tissue presenting with red fluorescence when observed during the course of resection of new or recurrent malignant gliomas. The functionality and performance reliability of the blue light excitation microscope platforms will be assessed.
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and prognosis of dendritic cell-precision T cell for neo-antigen in the treatment of advanced biliary tract malignant tumor. Methods: This study designs a novel therapy using dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells. 40 patients will be enrolled. They are randomly divided into gemcitabine group and dendritic cell-precision T cell for neo-antigen combined with gemcitabine group. Gemcitabine treatments will be performed once a week with a total of six times. Dendritic cell-precision T cell for neo-antigen combined with gemcitabine treatment: Gemcitabine: once a week with a total of six times before 60 days prior to the start of drawing blood. Dendritic cell-precision T cell for neo-antigen: once per 3 weeks with a total of three periods. The mail clinical indicators are Progression-Free-Survival and Overall Survival.
