Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, dose, immunogenicity and early clinical activity of GRT-C901 and GRT-R902, a personalized neoantigen cancer vaccine, in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab, in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, microsatellite stable colorectal cancer, gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, and metastatic urothelial cancer.
This is an open label, safety and preliminary efficacy study of MRx0518 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with solid tumours (non small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, bladder cancer or melanoma). Subjects will be treated with IV pembrolizumab every 3 weeks and 1 capsule twice daily of MRx0518. Treatment will continue as long as clinically relevant, until disease progression, unacceptable AEs or withdrawal of consent up to a maximum of 35 cycles (approx. 2 years).
In this study, Genocea is evaluating an investigational, personalized adjuvanted vaccine, GEN-009, that is being developed for the treatment of patients with solid tumors. A proprietary tool developed by Genocea, called ATLAS™ (Antigen Lead Acquisition System) will be used to identify neoantigens in each patient's tumor that are recognized by their CD4 and/or CD8 T cells. ATLAS-identified neoantigens will then be incorporated into a patient's personalized vaccine in the form of synthetic long peptides (SLPs).
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the world; each year lung cancer claims over 20 000 lives in Canada and more than one million lives globally (1). Significant improvements have been made in treating many other types of cancer, but lung cancer care has not realized similar successes. Seventy percent of cancers are at an advanced stage at diagnosis, and radiation plays a standard role as a part of both radical and palliative therapy in these cases. Normal lung tissue is highly sensitive to radiation. This sensitivity poses a serious problem; it can cause radiation pneumonitis or fibrosis (RILI), which may result in serious disability and sometimes death. Thirty-seven percent of thoracic cancer patients treated with radiation develop RILI; in 20% of radiation therapy cases, injury to the lungs is moderate to severe (2). In addition, radiation-induced pneumonitis that produces symptoms occurs in 5-50% of individuals given radiotherapy for lung cancer (3, 4). The chances of clinical radiation pneumonitis are directly related to the irradiated volume of lung (5). However, radiation planning currently assumes that all parts of the lung are equally functional. Identification of the areas of the lung that are more functional would be beneficial in order to prioritize those areas for sparing during radiation planning. In order to limit the amount of RILI to preserve lung function in patients, clinicians plan radiation treatment using conformal or intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). This makes use of computed tomography (CT) scans, which take into account anatomic locations of both disease and lung but cannot assess the functionality of the lung itself. An important component of the rationale of IMRT is that if doses of radiation entering functional tissue are constrained, radiation dose can be focused on tumours to spare functional tissues from injury to preserve existing lung function (6). Therefore, to optimally reduce toxicity, IMRT would depend on data of not only tumour location, but also regional lung function. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) can detect a decrease in pulmonary function due to the presence of tumours or RILI, but because the measurements are performed at the mouth, PFTs do not provide regional information on lung function. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging may be used for radiation planning, but PET is limited in its ability to delineate functional tissue, it requires administration of a radiopharmaceutical agent, it is a slow modality, and, because it requires use of a cyclotron, it is expensive. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging to measure pulmonary perfusion as a means for delineating functional tissue has been explored (7-11). Whereas SPECT can detect non-functional tissue, it offers spatial resolution that is only half that of CT or PET, and it does not possess the anatomical resolution necessary for optimal use with IMRT. Furthermore, like PET, SPECT is a slow modality. Given the limitations of existing imaging modalities, there is an urgent unmet medical need for an imaging modality that can provide complimentary data on regional lung function quickly and non-invasively, and that will limit tissue toxicity in radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Hyperpolarized (HP) gas magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has the potential to fill this unmet need. HP gas MRI, uses HP xenon-129 (129Xe) to provide non-invasive, high resolution imaging without the need for ionizing radiation, paramagnetic, or iodinated chemical contrast agents. HP gas MRI offers the tremendous advantages of quickly providing high-resolution information on the lungs that is noninvasive, direct, functional, and regional. Conventional MRI typically detects the hydrogen (1H) nucleus, which presents limitations for lung imaging due to lack of water molecules in the lungs. HP gas MRI detects 129Xe nuclei, which are polarized using spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) technique to increase their effective MR signal intensity by approximately 100,000 times. HP gas MRI has already been widely successful for pulmonary imaging, providing high-resolution imaging information on lung structure, ventilation function, and air-exchange function. The technology has proven useful for imaging asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cystic fibrosis, and for assessing the efficacy of therapeutics for these diseases (12 -21). In this project, the investigators propose to develop an imaging technology for delineating regions of the lung in humans that are non-functional versus those that are viable; using hyperpolarized (HP) xenon-129 (129Xe) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), will better inform beam-planning strategies, in an attempt to reduce RILI in lung cancer patients.
This is a trial in adult participants with unresectable, locally advanced, Stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with pembrolizumab in combination with platinum doublet chemotherapy and standard thoracic radiotherapy followed by pembrolizumab monotherapy. The primary hypothesis of the trial is that within each platinum doublet chemotherapy cohort, the percentage of participants who develop Grade 3 or higher pneumonitis is ≤10% and objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (BICR).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bintrafusp alfa (M7824) compared with pembrolizumab in participants with advanced NSCLC with high PD-L1-tumor expression, with no epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) translocation. The Phase III adaptive design allows for the option to recruit up to 584 patients based on pre-specified rules.
This is a phase III study of pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with or without canakinumab in previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous and squamous NSCLC subjects. The study will assess primarily the safety and tolerability (safety run-in part) of pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with canakinumab and then the efficacy (double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled part) of pembrolizumab plus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with or without canakinumab.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) and clinical activity of etrumadenant (AB928) in combination with zimberelimab (AB122) (an anti-PD-1 antibody) in participants with advanced malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether either or both nutrition supplements (Impact® Advanced Recovery or Boost® High Protein) ingested prior to and during concurrent chemoradiotherapy decreases toxic side effects of treatment in Stage IIIA-B non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine if stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) on non-consecutive days will increase the chances of curing non-small cell lung cancer when compared to daily treatment.
