Filter by:Outcome measurement for patients with gastric, ovarian, colorectal, or pleural cancer/mesothelioma with peritoneal/pleural carcinomatosis undergoing pressurized intraperitoneal/intrathoracal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC/PITAC) with cisplatin and doxorubicin or oxaliplatin. Record of (partial/total) tumor response rate via survival rate, time until tumor progression (according to RECIST-criteria), peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) before and after therapy, histological tumor progression/regression, ascites/pleural affusion volume, degree of tumor cell apoptosis.
Randomized trials have already demonstrated that geriatric intervention was able to improve survival in the general elderly population but only a few have been performed in cancer patients. At the end, these data are not sufficient to consider geriatric intervention as validated in this setting. Case Management, coordinated by a geriatrician and a trained nurse, could improve prognosis of elderly patients with cancer. This approach, can be integrated in daily oncology practice. This strategy will be compared to usual oncological management in a randomized phase III trial.
Phase Ib/II study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of PM01183 in combination with olaparib in patients with advanced solid tumors.
This is a phase I prospective study with the primary objective to compare the efficacy and safety of Surgical cytoreduction (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in treatment of recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancers. Eligible patients consenting to this protocol will undergo their scheduled surgical procedure. After surgical cytoreduction to a residual disease ≤ 2.5 mm, a single dose of carboplatin (800 mg/m2) will be administered in normal saline via intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion using the closed-abdomen. HIPEC will be continued for 90 minutes in the hyperthermic phase (41°C-43°C). At 4-6 weeks after CRS, patients will go on to receive 6 cycles of standard IV platinum-based chemotherapy. The proportion of patients who are without evidence of recurrence will be assessed at 6, 9, 12 and 18 months after the day of surgery.
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.
Background: Epithelial Ovarian Cancer is the most lethal amongst the gynecologic malignancies and is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in women in the United States.1 Despite initial high response rates, 50% to 75% of women who present with advanced disease suffer relapse and require re treatment2.The optimal treatment for platinum resistant ovarian cancer remains hotly debated. Combination chemotherapy is not favored due to its increased toxicity and lack of convincing benefit when compared to single agent chemotherapy.3,4 Recently, the addition of bevacizumab to single agent chemotherapy in the AURELIA study improved progression free survival (PFS) from 3.4 months to 6.7 months. Response rates were also improved from 11.8% versus 27.3% (p= 0 .001).9 Aim: To determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of weekly paclitaxel in combination with LDWART. The recommended phase II dose (RP2D) will be based on the MTD in this Phase I study. Method: This study is designed as a prospective, single arm phase I study with 3+3 with dose de-escalation and cohort expansion. All patients will receive weekly paclitaxel at a pre specified dose of 80 mg/m2, 70 mg/m2, 60mg/m2 or 50 mg/m2 via intravenous infusion according to institution specific standard practices. Cycles of chemotherapy will be administered weekly without interruption on Days 1,8,15,22,29,36 for a total of 6 weekly cycles in combination with LDWART(Fig.1). LDWART will be given at 60 cGy fractions, twice daily for two days, with a minimum of 4 hours inter fraction interval, starting on day 1 of each cycle of weekly paclitaxel for 6 weeks.(Fig.1). Importance of proposed research: The combination of a LDWART with weekly paclitaxel may improve the efficacy of the current standard weekly paclitaxel in platinum resistant ovarian cancer patients. Potential benefits and risks: The combination may improve treatment response. Adding LDWART may increase treatment risks, but these will be monitored closely.
This trial is a Phase I open-label safety study of Prolanta™, a recombinant analog of the human prolactin protein with a single amino acid substitution to create an antagonist of the prolactin receptor. The Sponsor believes that blocking the prolactin receptor in patients with ovarian and other cancers will be effective as a monotherapy or in combination with other chemotherapies. This Phase I study will be conducted in Subjects with recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer.
Background: Autologous T cells engineered to express a T cell receptor (TCR) targeting NY-ESO-1 will be infused back to patients with NY-ESO-1- expressing malignancies. The patients pretreated with a lymphodepleting preconditioning regimen will be monitored after infusion of anti-NY-ESO-1 TCR-transduced T cells for adverse events, persistence of anti-NY-ESO-1 TCR-transduced T cells and treatment efficacy. Objectives: To evaluate the safety and the efficacy of anti-NY-ESO-1 TCR-transduced T cell-based immunotherapy for patients with NY-ESO-1- expressing malignancies. Eligibility: Patients older than one year of age, who have relapsed or refractory malignancies that express both NY-ESO-1 and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A2 molecules. Patients must have adequate organ functions. Design: - Peripheral blood from patients will be collected for isolation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), which will be transduced with a lentiviral or retroviral vector encoding an HLA-A2 restricted anti-NY-ESO-1 TCR gene. - Patients will receive a lymphodepleting preconditioning regimen to prepare their immune system to accept modified T cells. - Patients will receive an infusion of their own modified T cells. They will remain in the hospital to be monitored for adverse events until they have recovered from the treatment. - Patients will have frequent follow-up visits to monitor the persistence of modified T cells and efficacy of the treatment.
Activity of COTI-2 has been demonstrated in various cancer tumor models. With its p53- and AKT-based mechanisms of action, COTI-2 is anticipated to be highly relevant in treatment of patients with gynecologic malignancies or head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) as well as a variety of other tumor types. This study is designed primarily to assess the safety and tolerability of COTI-2 monotherapy or combination therapy in patients with advanced and recurrent malignancies to establish a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for future studies. Patients are currently being recruited for Part 3 of the study. Critical Outcome Technologies Inc. has been renamed to Cotinga Pharmaceuticals.
Investigators will conduct the trial to determine whether paclitaxel and cisplatin (PT) has the same curative effects and less adverse effects than bleomycin, etoposide and cisplatin(BEP) among newly diagnosed ovarian malignant sex cord-stromal tumor patients after surgery.
