Filter by:Primary Objective: To determine objective response rate (ORR). Secondary Objectives: To assess duration of response (DR), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). To evaluate global safety profile. To determine pharmacokinetic profile. To assess clinical utility of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay in selection of patients with mesenchymal-epithelial hybridization (MET) gene amplification. To assess lung cancer symptoms, health-related quality of life and treatment satisfaction.
The first purpose of this study is to test a new computer program that reduces the blurring in the cone-beam CT scan and helps the doctor to better locate the tumor. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, that this has on the patient and the way we treat the cancer in the lungs. The second purpose of this study is to test how well this computer program tracks markers in the images, compared to using radio signals to follow the markers.
This phase I trial studies the side effects of vaccine therapy and pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment, that have failed prior therapy, and that cannot be removed by surgery. Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with pembrolizumab may be a better treatment in patients with solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single oromucosal dose of Sativex in subjects with advanced cancer currently on background Step III opioid therapy.
This study will evaluate the immunologic and potential clinical effectiveness of intensive locoregional sequential intraperitoneal (IP) cisplatin (IPC) with intravenous (iv) paclitaxel followed by peritoneal infusion of a chemokine modulatory (CKM) regimen composed of a cocktail of IP rintatolimod and interferon-alpha (IFNα) for patients with advanced stage ovarian cancer (III-IV) at primary neoadjuvant setting. In the safety phase I phase, we determined the tolerable dose of IPC-CKM. In this phase 2 we will add intradermal (ID) autologous αDC1 vaccines (known to be nontoxic) to the tolerable IPC-CKM regimen. The effectiveness will be determined by rate of complete pathologic response.
This is an open label, multi-center, phase 1 study of BBI608 and BBI503 administered orally in combination to patients with advanced solid tumors. The primary goal is to determine the safety, tolerability, and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the combination regimen.
This is a phase 1/2 study evaluating safety, tolerability, and efficacy of lenvatinib as single-agent, and in combination with chemotherapy (ifosfamide and etoposide) in children and adolescents with refractory or relapsed solid malignancies including differentiated thyroid carcinoma (single agent lenvatinib) and osteosarcoma (single agent and combination lenvatinib).
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in North America and in the world. The vast majority of lung cancers are associated with cigarette smoking. Unfortunately, the majority of lung cancers are detected at an advanced stage when they have a very poor prognosis. A substantial amount of data has been reported on low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening. Yet endorsement of lung cancer screening has not been universal because of outstanding concerns which need to be addressed. Our study will aim to screen at risk Albertans for lung cancer with LDCT scan at baseline, year 1 and year 2 while attempting to fill some knowledge gaps on this topic.
This is a prospective, single-center randomized trial with three arms, and an allocation ratio of 1:1:1. The study design is an efficacy study to evaluate the effect of metformin and coach-directed behavioral weight loss versus self-directed weight loss on insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 and IGF-1 to THE IGFBP-III ratio blood levels after 6 and 12 months of intervention. The coach-directed Behavioral Weight Loss arm is a web-based remote delivery and communication system that promotes healthy behavioral changes. The Metformin arm is a pharmaceutical intervention of oral metformin. This is a secondary prevention study for men and women who have survived solid malignant tumors
This was a study of INCB054329 given to patients with advanced malignancies that were conducted in three treatment groups. Each treatment group had a dose escalation (Part 1) and a dose expansion (Part 3), two of the treatment groups also had an intra-patient dose titration (Part 2).
