Filter by:Study is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SNX-5422 when given in combination with everolimus.
Neuroendocrine cancer is an unusual disease and often goes undetected by routine imaging. The 68Ga-DOTATATE PET Scan is a novel scanning method that may have improved sensitivity and resolution specifically for neuroendocrine tumors. Patients with neuroendocrine tumors will be imaged with this agent and it will be compared to conventional imaging methods to determine the safety and efficacy of this radiopharmaceutical.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well everolimus works in treating patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors metastatic to the liver previously treated with surgery. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving everolimus after surgery may kill any tumors cells that remain.
The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant percentage of small and rural hospitals and cancer centers. The iCaRe2 advances comprehensive studies of risk factors of cancer development and progression and enables the design of novel strategies for prevention, screening, early detection and personalized treatment of cancer. Centers with expertise in cancer epidemiology, genetics, biology, early detection, and patient care can collaborate by using the iCaRe2 as a platform for cohort and population studies.
Famitinib is a tyrosin-inhibitor agent targeting at c-Kit, VEGFR2, PDGFR, VEGFR3, Flt1 and Flt3. Phase I study has shown that the toxicity is manageable. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of Famitinib in patients with advanced or metastatic Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate 68Ga-DOTA TATE PET/CT for staging and monitoring response to chemotherapy in patients with carcinoid, neuroendocrine tumors, medullary thyroid cancer and other cancers expressing somatostatin receptors.
Phase I Multicenter, Open-label, Clinical and Pharmacokinetic Study of PM01183 in Combination with Fixed Doxorubicin in Non- Heavily Pretreated Patients with Selected Advanced Solid Tumors to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended dose (RD) of PM01183 in combination with doxorubicin, to characterize the safety profile and feasibility of this combination, to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of this combination, to obtain preliminary information on the clinical antitumor activity,to explore the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a potential improvable dose of this combination in selected tumor types [i.e. small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and endometrial cáncer] and to evaluate the pharmacogenomics (PGx) in tumor samples of patients exposed to PM01183 and doxorubicin at the RD in order to assess potential markers of response and/or resistance.
Background: - Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare but have been more common over the past decade. The only treatment for NETs is surgery, but most are found when they are too advanced for surgery. Researchers are looking for the best way to find NETs earlier, so that surgery can be successful. They want to test if the study drug can be used along with imaging devices to detect NETs. Objectives: - To see how well a new experimental imaging agent, 68Gallium-DOTATATE, detects unknown primary and metastatic NETs in the gastrointestinal system and pancreas. Eligibility: - Adults over 10 years old with a suspected NET or family history of NET. Design: - Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam, and have a blood test. - Participants will undergo three scans. For all of these, a substance is injected into their body, they lie on a table, and a machine takes images. - A standard computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. - An octreotide scintigraphy Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT. - A 68Gallium-DOTATATE positron emission tomography (PET)/CT. The study drug is injected into a vein, usually in the arm. Low-dose X-rays go through the body. For about 40 minutes a large, donut-shaped device takes images of the body. The entire session takes 90 to 120 minutes. - Researchers will compare images from the three scans. - Participants will have 1 follow-up visit each year for 5 years. At this visit, they will have a medical exam, blood taken, and a CT scan.
The phase I trial aims to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of vandetanib in combination with standard radiation therapy, 131I-mIBG, in patients with advanced phaeochromocytoma (phaeo) and paraganglioma (PG) by assessing the safety and tolerability of the combination treatment.
