Filter by:Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an emerging radiotherapy technique that precisely delivers high doses of radiation to tumours. It has been investigated as definitive treatment for an increasing variety of primary tumours including lung, liver, prostate, and now renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The principal aims of this study are to prospectively assess quality of life (QoL) and oncologic outcomes in non-surgical patients who receive SBRT for the treatment of RCC.
This research study is investigating a drug as a possible treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The intervention involved in this study is TAK-228.
The therapeutic effectiveness of ultrasound guided cooled-probe microwave ablation and laparoscopic partial nephrectomy on T1a renal cell carcinoma is compared to find a better approach for renal tumor.
Invariant Natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a unique subset of lymphocytes that express homogeneous TCR recognizing KRN7000 which was up-regulated by many kinds of cancer cells. PD-1+CD8+T cells of patients with advanced tumor are most likely tumor-specified. Our hypothesis is that immunotherapy strategy of infusion of iNKT cells and PD-1+CD8+T cells may decrease the tumor burden and improve overall survival. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment of patients with advanced solid tumor by infusing of iNKT cells and PD-1+CD8+T cells.
This is an open-label, multi-center, randomized, Phase 1b, adaptive, clinical study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary therapeutic activity of RO6874281 in combination with atezolizumab with/without bevacizumab in participants with unresectable advanced and/or metastatic RCC. The study will consist of a dose-escalation part and an extension part.
The study will examine which differences there are in comorbidity and complications collected retrospectively from medical records compared with data collected prospectively in two groups of patients undergoing either radical cystectomy or radical nephrectomy. Hypothesis is that he prevalence of registered comorbidity and minor complications in patients who have undergone radical cystectomy or nephrectomy, will increase if the data collection is focused and prospective, compared with retrospectively collected data. The study will be conducted as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. Patients included in the study will be randomized to either control or intervention in the ratio 1:1. There are two groups of patients: Patients admitted to radical cystectomy and patients admitted to radical nephrectomy, due to cancer.
A Multicenter Open-Label Single-Arm Multi-Cohort Phase I Study of Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Safety, and Immunogenicity of BCD-100 (JSC BIOCAD, Russia) in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors
Background: Combinations of Dendritic and Cytokine-induced Killer Cells (DC-CIK) and Cytokine-induced Killer Cells (CIK) treatment may enhance the immune response and stop cancer cells from growing. The investigators suppose that DC-CIK combined with CIK treatment will improve the prognosis of advanced solid tumors. Objective: Phase II clinical trial to investigate the efficacy of concurrent chemotherapy with DC-CIK and CIK treatment in patients with treatment-refractory solid tumors. Study treatment: Patients in group A will receive 4 cycles of CIK treatments and 4 cycles of DC-CIK treatments within 8 months. Patients in group B will have no immunotherapy . chemotherapy are available in both groups.
Metastatic (HR-positive, HER2-negative) breast cancer (BC), advanced or unresectable neuroendocrine tumours of pancreatic (pNET), gastrointestinal or lung origin and metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) are diseases with poor outcome. Everolimus increases patients' median progression-free survival (PFS) with 4.6 months in metastatic BC (mBC), 7 months in (p)NET and 3 months in mRCC. However, serious adverse events (AEs) occur frequently. This reduces effectiveness of everolimus, because AEs are managed with dose reductions, treatment interruptions or even complete discontinuation of everolimus. Therapeutic-drug-monitoring (TDM) is used to adjust the prescribed daily dose, to maintain effective everolimus whole blood concentrations, with the lowest possible risk of AEs. While everolimus TDM has been common in transplantation medicine, it has not been implemented in oncology. The importance of TDM in oncology is supported by previous research which showed that a 2-fold increased everolimus whole blood trough concentration was associated with a short-term risk of grade ≥ 3 pneumonitis, stomatitis and metabolic events. Moreover, an exposure-toxicity relationship of everolimus in patients with thyroid cancer was observed, since initial everolimus concentrations could be associated with early toxicity (< 12 weeks, e.g. stomatitis). However, the association between initial everolimus measurements and long-term AEs (≥12 weeks, e.g. pneumonitis, anorexia and anemia) of any grade and the need for everolimus dose reductions could not be made. Since levels ±>18 µg/L were associated with toxicity, the investigators assume that the upper therapeutic window of everolimus in the oncologic setting will be ±18 µg/L. Similarly, a tendency to improved PFS and overall survival was observed when Cmin in steady state was above 14.1 μg/L. This seems to be the lower limit of the therapeutic window. Before consensus about the feasibility of everolimus TDM in the oncologic setting can be achieved, a number of questions (the knowledge gaps) need to be answered: 1. It is unknown whether everolimus whole blood trough levels (over time) predict long-term AEs. 2. The optimal concentration range for everolimus, with the treatment of mBC, mRCC, or (p)NET is unknown, especially the upper limit associated with toxicity. 3. It is unknown what everolimus concentration level is associated with the need for everolimus dose reductions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of different administration regimens of nivolumab plus ipilimumab in subjects with renal cell carcinoma.
