Filter by:Background: About one-third to one-half of all people dying of extrathoracic malignant diseases have cancer that has spread to the lungs. Surgery may help some people. But most people with pulmonary metastases do not survive long. Researchers want to see if a combination of drugs can help. Objective: To find a safe dose of Azacytidine, when taken as a fine mist that is inhaled (aerosolized Azacytidine), together with Bintrafusp Alfa to treat cancers that have spread to the lungs. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have cancer that has spread to the lungs, cannot be cured with surgery, and has not responded to standard treatments. Design: Participants will get Azacytidine by breathing treatments once a day for 3 days each week, for 3 weeks. The 3-week period is 1 cycle. Each course of treatment is 3 cycles. Once per cycle, participants will get Bintrafusp Alfa via IV. An IV is a small tube that is put into an arm vein. Participants will keep a diary of any side effects. Participants can take the study drugs for as long as they can continue treatment. Participants will have medical histories and physical exams. They will give blood, urine, and lung lining fluid samples. Tumor samples will be taken via bronchoscopy. They will have lung function tests. Participants will have an imaging scan that shows how spray particles move in their airway when they inhale. They will have tumor imaging scans of the chest and brain. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after they stop treatment....
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of alectinib in participants with Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK)-positive locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors other than lung cancer.
This study will enroll patients who have a diagnosis of locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic soft tissue or bone sarcoma (except gastrointestinal stromal tumors and Kaposi's sarcoma) from any site.
This study investigates the ability of heat shock protein HSP70 to isolate and quantify circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with advanced or metastatic tumors. CTCs will be isolated from peripheral blood before antineoplastic treatment and again after three months. Isolation using HSP70 will be compared with standard CTC isolation by EpCAM. Additionally, imaging parameters of the primary tumor (if available) and metastases will be analysed and correlations between molecular alterations and imaging parameters will be assesed.
Bone and soft tissue sarcomas represent about 7-12% of all pediatric cancer and are a heterogeneous group of tumors arising in connective tissues embryologically derived from the mesenchyme. For some of these tumors relapse and mortality rates are still significantly high. Therefore, further studies are needed to better understand pathogenetic processes underlying sarcomas to offer new and more effective treatments. Next generation sequencing (NGS) has opened new frontiers for cancer research allowing to identify somatic or constitutional mutations known or yet unknown with the aim to better understand carcinogenesis. The establishment of the genomic profile of the tumor could also help clinicians to personalize patients treatment based on their genetic and molecular alterations.
This is an open label, first-in-man clinical trial to assess safety and tolerability of CEB-01 PLGA membrane in patients with recurrent or locally advanced retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma after surgery. The trial will be conducted in 3 dose-escalation cohorts (3 patients each, enrolling patients one by one, after 4 weeks of observation and agreement of Scientific Committee and DMC) and in an expansion cohort, using the highest safe and tolerable dose. The study will follow a 3+3 modified design; dose escalation will follow a modified Fibonacci method. CEB-01 carrying a SN-38 dose between 9 and 36 mg will be placed in the surgical bed at the time of tumor resection.
This project aims to assess a new type of Augmented Reality Patient Information leaflet, in order to demonstrate that it is a beneficial information resource to patients when facing the diagnosis of sarcoma, breast cancer or to explain difficult concepts such as cleft lip repair. There are no published studies on the use of AR in patient leaflets.
Soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) are malignant tumours that arise in any of the mesodermal tissues in the body including muscles, fibrous tissues, bone and cartilage, adipose tissue, and blood vessels, most frequently in the extremities (40%), trunk and retroperitoneum (40%). Traditionally, the prescription schedule for conventional preoperative RT is a regimen of 50 Gy in fractions of 1.8-2 Gy per day. Concerns regarding this regimen include the delay to definitive surgery and the higher rate of wound complications compared to post-operative radiotherapy. Hypofractionated RT is a prescription schedule in which the total dose of radiation is delivered in larger doses per fraction in fewer fractions allowing the delivery of a higher biologically effective dose (BED) to the tumour than with conventional RT [7] during a shorter period of time.
This phase I trial evaluates the side effects of radio-immunotherapy (CDX-301, radiotherapy, CDX-1140 and Poly-ICLC) in treating patients with unresectable and measurable metastatic melanoma, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), Merkel cell carcinoma, high-grade bone and soft tissue sarcoma or HER2/neu(-) breast cancer. CDX-301 may induce cross-presenting dendritic cells, master regulators in the immune system. Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill tumor cells and release antigens that may be picked up, processed and presented by cross-presenting dendritic cells. CDX-1140 and Poly-ICLC may activate tumor antigen-loaded,cross-presenting dendritic cells, and generate tumor-specific T lymphocytes, a type of immune cells, that can search out and attack cancers. Giving immune modulators and radiation therapy may stimulate tumor cell death and activate the immune system.
This study is a open-lable , single arm，single center, phase II clinical study. Target population is patients with high-risk Soft tissue sarcoma. Study objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab in combination with Liposome doxorubicin and Ifosfamide in study population in China. Camrelizumab is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody.
