Filter by:This clinical trial studies the effect of cancer directed therapy given at-home versus in the clinic for patients with cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Currently most drug-related cancer care is conducted in infusion centers or specialty hospitals, where patients spend many hours a day isolated from family, friends, and familiar surroundings. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. The logistics and costs of navigating cancer treatments have become a principal contributor to patients' reduced quality of life. It is therefore important to reduce the burden of cancer in the lives of patients and their caregivers, and a vital aspect of this involves moving beyond traditional hospital and clinic-based care and evaluate innovative care delivery models with virtual capabilities. Providing cancer treatment at-home, versus in the clinic, may help reduce psychological and financial distress and increase treatment compliance, especially for marginalized patients and communities.
The CliniMACS® device is FDA-approved only for one indication (CD34+ selection). Additional use of this device outside of this indication requires the use of feasibility studies. Children, adolescents and young adults with malignant and non-malignant conditions undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplants will have stem cells selected using alpha-beta+/CD19+ cell depletion. This is a single arm feasibility study using this processing of peripheral stem cells with alternative donor sources (haploidentical, mismatched, matched unrelated) to determine efficacy as seen by engraftment and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
Developments in the healthcare sector in general, and in oncology in particular, mean that patients are increasingly autonomous. Outpatient treatment raises the issue of home monitoring. One of the solutions proposed by the 2014-2019 Cancer Plan is the development of telemedicine. Several programmes have been set up in the medical oncology department at Hôpital Mondor, to make patient care more secure and improve the management of undesirable effects of treatment for patients undergoing intravenous (I.V.) chemotherapy or oral anti-cancer treatments. The preliminary study on the use of the digital solution Onco'nect demonstrated the feasibility of using a dematerialised tool for real-time monitoring and management of chemotherapy-induced adverse events in cancer patients undergoing outpatient treatment. The tool was used to help AP-HP institution deal with the crisis linked to the COVID epidemic. Once it had been configured, Onco'nect was deployed to all institution's hospital groups to ensure that infected patients could remain at home, and that patients hospitalised with symptomatic COVID infection could return home. Hypothesis: The digital solution Onco'nect would improve patient compliance and could reduce the occurrence and improve the management of unexpected adverse events. Primary objective: In terms of clinical evaluation, the primary objective is to assess the effect of using the Onco'nect solution for ambulatory oncology follow-up on reducing the rate of occurrence at 6 months follow-up of unexpected and unwanted chemo-induced adverse events. The solution is already on the market and has been integrated (or is in the process of being integrated) into the care systems of the participating AP-HP establishments. The aim of the project is to evaluate its use in routine care and measure the occurrence and management of unexpected and unwanted chemo-induced adverse events in outpatients treated for cancer. This observational study of care pathway, using retrospective data, aims to include 480 patients in a 18 months period. Three periods of interest will be considered in this before-and-after study - Onco'nect pre-deployment (12 months): period covering the year prior to the actual implementation of the solution in each centre; patients receiving I.V. chemotherapy during the first 6 months of the period will be included, in order to assess follow-up at 6 months. - Onco'nect deployment: this period corresponds to the implementation of the solution in the centre's care pathway. Deployment includes interoperability with other operating systems and setting up the collection interfaces for the user. - Post-deployment (12 months): period covering the year following the implementation of the solution within the centre (installation, interoperability and configuration validated); patients receiving I.V. chemotherapy during the first 6 months of the period will be included, in order to be able to evaluate the 6-month follow-up.
This is a single-arm, open, II phase study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Nivolumab + carboplatin + paclitaxel in 25 newly diagnosed patients with primary tracheal squamous cell carcinoma.
Increased fibroblast activation protein expression is positively correlated with the aggressiveness of cancer. Radiolabeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor therapy, also known as radioligand therapy has become a novel treatment for patients with refractory cancer and disease progression after multiple-lines treatment. However, a major problem in the therapeutic use of 177Lu-DOTA-FAPI has been its short half-life and fast rate of clearance. This study was designed to evaluate the safety and tolerabilityof a long-lasting radiolabeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor 177Lu-DOTA-EB-FAPI in patients with various refractory solid tumors.
The survival of ovarian cancer patients is dependent on the stage at diagnosis; more than 70% of patients present with advanced stage disease (stage III/IV). In England, one-year survival is 98.7% at stage I and 51.4% at stage IV and five-year survival is 93.3% and 13.4% respectively. Standard treatment for advanced ovarian cancer involves surgery to remove all visible tumour and chemotherapy. Removal of all visible disease, so no tumour deposits are visible to the naked eye at the end of first-line surgery, is one of the strongest predictors of overall survival. A majority of the women presenting with advanced disease are older and frail. Extensive open surgery discriminates against such women as they may not be well enough for the surgery offered. A recent national audit in England found that 60.1% of women over the age of 79yrs diagnosed with ovarian cancer received no cancer treatment at all. The ability to provide the same surgery via a minimally invasive route such as robotic surgery potentially widens access to cancer treatment. The MIRRORS Feasibility study (NCT04402333) completed recently at the Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford showed significantly enhanced recovery with short length of stay and reduced blood loss enabling faster recommencement of chemotherapy in women with advanced disease undergoing robotic surgery compared to open surgery (requiring a cut in the abdomen). In the current proposed study funded by Intuitive Foundation and GRACE Charity, the investigators will establish the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial and collect data from three hospital sites to inform a future phase 3 randomised controlled trial. The aim will be to to improve patient experience, access to surgery, recovery, reduce morbidity and reduce time to chemotherapy by incorporating robotic cytoreductive surgery into the ovarian cancer treatment pathway for women with a pelvic mass </=8cm
NPX267 is an antibody drug targeting the inhibitory receptor for B7-H7 (HHLA2) which may control evasion of the immune response in tumors. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether NPX267 is safe and tolerable in patients whose cancers are known to express HHLA2 including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant non-small cell lung cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: - what is an appropriate dose to be given to patients? - are the side effects of treatment manageable? Participants will be evaluated for participation in the study. Patients who are treated will receive an intravenous infusion of NPX267 every three weeks if their disease has not progressed. Patients will be closely monitored by the treating physician.
