Filter by:A study of zolbetuximab (IMAB362) plus mFOLFOX6 versus placebo plus mFOLFOX6 in subjects with Claudin 18.2 positive, HER2-negative, locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Why is this study being done? SPOTLIGHT is a new clinical study for adult patients who have any of: - advanced unresectable gastric or GEJ cancer - metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer. These types of cancers have a unique set of proteins (called Claudin 18.2). We may be able to use a treatment that targets the proteins to kill the cancer cells. For patients with one of the types of cancer listed above, mFOLFOX6 (a combination of three chemotherapies known as Oxaliplatin, Leucovorin, and Fluorouracil) is a current treatment option. This study is testing an experimental medicine called zolbetuximab (IMAB362). Zolbetuximab attaches itself to Claudin 18.2 on the cancer cells causing cancer cell death. Patients will be assigned to one of two groups by chance and given either: - zolbetuximab with mFOLFOX6; or - a placebo with mFOLFOX6. A placebo is a treatment that looks like the experimental medicine, but contains no medicine. The goal of the study is to find out if zolbetuximab with mFOLFOX6 helps patients to live longer by stopping the cancer from getting worse.
The purpose of this study is to show that the addition of COMPOUND 2055269, an immunotherapeutic drug, to Folfox chemotherapy will improve the pathologic complete response rate in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer.
This phase II trial studies the how well apalutamide with or without stereotactic body radiation therapy work in treating participants with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Testosterone can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using apalutamide may fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of testosterone by the tumor cells. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method can kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. It is not yet known whether giving apalutamide with or without stereotactic body radiation therapy works better in treating participants with castration-resistant cancer.
This study provides fluorine F 18 DCFPyL positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) to participants with prostate cancer that has come back. Diagnostic procedures, such as fluorine F 18 DCFPyL PET/CT, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.
Determine diagnostic accuracy of Axumin-PET positive bone lesion by confirmatory bone biopsy.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about a new combination of drugs being given to treat pancreatic cancer. The drugs being tested are BMS-813160, nivolumab, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel. The investigators will be looking at both the side effects and the way the disease responds to treatment.
The purpose of this phase 2 research study is to determine whether a combination of chemotherapy drugs plus radiation therapy, given before surgery in resectable pancreactic cancer, can help to increase the chances of surgeons achieving and R0 resection. The chemotherapy drugs used are gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel. These drugs are both approved by the FDA for use in treating adults with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The investigational portion of this study is providing the chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy before surgery. Primary Endpoint, R) resection rate ≥70%. Secondary Endpoints, Disease free survival, Overall survival , Perioperative mortality and morbidity.
This is a single-institution, single-arm phase II trial of Durvalumab combined with Radiation Therapy (RT) for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients who have progressed through first-line chemotherapy.
To evaluate the antitumor activity and safety/tolerability of the combination (mFOLFOX + Pembrolizumab) in patients with potentially resectable adenocarcinoma of the Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) and stomach.
Rationale: Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations (del19 or L858R) show an impressive progression-free survival between 9 and 11 months when treated with gefitinib. Combination of gefitinib and berberine could improve efficacy in lung cancer with EGFR mutation in vivo and vitro. The investigators hypothesize that progression-free survival could be improved by combination of gefitinib and berberine.
