Filter by:This phase III trial investigates the best dose of vinblastine in combination with selumetinib and the benefit of adding vinblastine to selumetinib compared to selumetinib alone in treating children and young adults with low-grade glioma (a common type of brain cancer) that has come back after prior treatment (recurrent) or does not respond to therapy (progressive). Selumetinib is a drug that works by blocking a protein that lets tumor cells grow without stopping. Vinblastine blocks cell growth by stopping cell division and may kill cancer cells. Giving selumetinib in combination with vinblastine may work better than selumetinib alone in treating recurrent or progressive low-grade glioma.
This phase I trial evaluates the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of combination therapy with elimusertib (BAY 1895344), stereotactic body radiation, and pembrolizumab in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer that has come back (recurrent) and cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). BAY 1895344 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving BAY 1895344, stereotactic body radiation therapy in combination with pembrolizumab may shrink or stabilize head and neck squamous cell cancer for longer than treatment with radiation and immunotherapy without BAY 1895344.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pegcetacoplan in patients who have post-transplant recurrence of C3G or IC-MPGN.
The primary aim of this study is to assess the effect of ConquerFear, a metacognition-based manualized intervention on fear of cancer recurrence, using the randomized controlled trial approach, among Chinese patients newly diagnosed with curable cancer. This study aims to (1) test the direct effect of ConquerFear intervention on fear of cancer recurrence and on maladaptive metacognition, and (2) to test the indirect effect of ConquerFear intervention on fear of cancer recurrence through its effect on maladaptive metacognition.
1. Inclusion of 5 families Inclusions will be made by the clinical genetics department of the Rouen University Hospital (monocentric study) and will correspond to trios of parents + child with unexplained developmental abnormalities. The inclusion of patients will be integrated in routine care and will have as immediate benefit for the included families the extensive analysis of the proband and their parents' genomes by short and long read sequencing techniques, which represent the most comprehensive diagnostic tests for developmental diseases, and which are not currently routinely available. Inclusion in clinical genetics by clinicians accustomed to prescribing genome-wide analyses will allow clear and complete information to families. Collection of consents. The trio's DNA will already be available at the molecular genetics laboratory, and a new blood sample may be proposed if necessary. Collection of sperm from the father. 2. Identification of a large set of de novo mutations. Extraction of blood DNA and sending for sequencing of the complete genome to the National Centre for Research in Human Genomics (CNRGH, Evry), in the framework of a collaboration already initiated. Analysis of the sequencing data thanks to the already existing expertise in Rouen. Identification of about 40-120 de novo mutations per trio. At this stage: interpretation of the variations identified with the secondary objective of identifying the cause of the disease in children. Long read genomes will allow to phase the de novo variants to the paternal or to the maternal haplotype. 3. Search for de novo mutations in paternal sperm samples. Extraction of spermatic DNA. Design of a sequencing panel targeting the genetic variations identified in the different trios. Preparation of the libraries, targeted high throughput sequencing at great depth thanks to the techniques and equipment already operational. Specific search for the de novo variations identified in the probands (in 2.), with for each evaluation of (i) the presence of the variation in the sperm sample, (ii) the quantity of mosaicism, reflecting the proportion of carrier spermatozoa and therefore the risk of recurrence, (iii) the presence of my variation in the blood sample of both parents in deep sequencing.
Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is the most common head and neck cancer in South China and South East Asia. Worldwide, there are 80,000 incident cases and 50,000 deaths annually. In Hong Kong, NPC ranked as the tenth most common cancer in man. Up to 30% of NPC patients will develop recurrence or metastases after primary radiotherapy or chemoradiation. Platinum-based chemotherapy regimen has been the main stay of first line treatment for recurrent or metastatic NPC. However, the duration of response is short and currently there is no recommended standard second line chemotherapy. Axitinib is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of VEGF receptor. Selectively targeting a single growth factor receptor pathway provides the potential to rationally adjust dosages and combine drugs directed at specific parts of the pathway to minimize toxicity and achieve the optimum therapeutic benefit. In the phase 2 axitinib monotherapy in recurrent or metastatic NPC who failed at least one line of chemotherapy, the clinical benefit rate (CBR, complete response + partial response + stable disease) was 78.4% at 3 months but decreased to 43.2% at 6 months. However, the confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST was only 2.7% and unconfirmed ORR of 18.9%, with no complete response.Recently, the promising clinical activity of immune check point inhibitors has been demonstrated in NPC. The ORR was 25.9% (7 partial responses out of 27 patients) for single agent pembrolizumab, and 20.5% (including 1 complete response and 7 partial responses out of 44 patients) for single agent nivolumab,9 in recurrent or metastatic NPC who failed at least first line chemotherapy. The combination of axitinib and avelumab has been studied in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Based on the above promising and positive results in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), the investigators hypothesize that the combination of axitinib and avelumab in the second line setting of NPC will achieving a more complete, deep and durable response than either agent alone, without a significant increase in toxicity. This is an open-label, single arm, phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the activity and safety of the combination of axitinib and avelumab in recurrent or metastatic NPC patients who failed at least one line of platinum-based chemotherapy.
This is a multicenter study of patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) to develop and validate potential tissue-based biomarkers that predict DFU wound recurrence. Trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) will be measured on the closed wound site and a location similar to the wound site (reference site). Participants will be enrolled within two weeks after closure of their DFU. Complete wound healing will be verified at a second visit two weeks later and this visit will start the 16 week timeline where participants will be followed weekly by phone until the earliest of DFU wound recurrence or 16 weeks. Participants who experience a DFU wound recurrence and a subset of participants who do not experience a DFU wound recurrence by week 16 will be asked to attend one final visit.
The purpose of this study is to assess the relationship between bupropion, stimulant use and relapse, ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), and measures of mood, drug craving, and inhibitory control in individuals enrolled in inpatient treatment for stimulant-use disorder with and without ADHD. The experimenters hypothesize that Bupropion and Contrave (Bupropion/Naltrexone) will increase inhibitory control and decrease drug craving and depressive symptoms in recently abstinent stimulant users in inpatient treatment with effects greater than those seen in recently abstinent stimulant users completing inpatient treatment as usual. An additional hypothesis is that relapse rates after leaving inpatient treatment in the group receiving bupropion will be lower than those of the group completing inpatient treatment as usual. The study design consists of four assessments of drug craving, inhibitory control, impulsive choice, and mood (depression and anxiety). The timepoints for these assessments include: A. baseline after entering treatment B. 2 weeks after starting drug C. 8 weeks after starting drug, and D. 1 month after leaving treatment. Following eligibility screening, 60 stimulant users will be enrolled in one of 3 groups. Group 1 Bupropion Active Group: 20 subjects will receive bupropion for 8 weeks during inpatient treatment. Group 2 Contrave Active Group: 20 subjects will receive Contrave for 8 weeks during inpatient treatment. Group 3 Control Group: 20 subjects enrolled in inpatient treatment will complete treatment as usual as well as the four assessments (A-D) described above but will not receive drug (convenience control). Half of the subjects in each group will be diagnosed with ADHD and half will not, for a total of 10 subjects per group with ADHD.
We aim to evaluate liver stiffness as a marker of severity and duration of the underlying liver disease to predict for early HCC recurrence after treatment.
This is a prospective randomized Phase III trial to assess efficiency of two post mastectomy hypofractionation schedules (40 Gy /15 fx / 3 weeks, 5 days per week VS 28.5 Gy delivered in 5 once-weekly fractions of 5.7 Gy each week) as adjuvant radiotherapy in female patients with breast cancer after mastectomy.
