Filter by:This phase II trial the side effects and possible benefits of etigilimab and nivolumab in treating patients with platinum-resistant clear cell ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as etigilimab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding etigilimab to nivolumab therapy can help to control clear cell ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers that are resistant to platinum-based therapy.
Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy, its prognosis remaining poor despite the current advances in treatment. Systemic inflammatory reaction has been recently recognized as an important factor in the progression of cancer. The immune-inflammatory response has been measured through different scores or ratios, that combine the values of circulating immune cells, like neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), prognostic nutritional index (PNI). The utility of these scores in different types of cancer has been more and more discussed. In pancreatic cancer, there has been no definite conclusion regarding the role of systemic immune-inflammatory factors; since controversies still exist, a deeper exploration of this subject, through more studies is welcomed. Our study intends to analyze the utility of systemic immune-inflammatory markers in resectable pancreatic cancer. Our study is an observational cohort study, with retrospective data collection; it is a single-center study, that takes place in a hospital with experience in hepato-bilio-pancreatic surgery. The investigators intended to evaluate the role of the circulating immune cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes) and different immune-inflammatory scores (NLR, LMR, PLR, SII, PNI) in predicting the overall survival of patients diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, that undergo curative surgical treatment. The investigators intended to assess the prognosis power of these factors in both preoperative and postoperative settings, as well as their dynamic after surgery. Through this study, the investigators hope to identify easy-to determine and easy-to-use markers that can be incorporated in clinical practice and that can effectively predict survival in pancreatic cancer patients. Nonetheless, the investigators want to explore the dynamic of the immune-inflammatory markers after curative surgery.
This is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, single arm phase Ⅰb/Ⅱ clinical study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib combined with toripalimab and SOX regimen in the first-line treatment of unresectable advanced metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
One of the main risks for recurrence in patients with pancreatic cancer is incomplete surgery of the primary tumor. During the operation, the surgeon bases himself for this on imaging and peroperative vision. Unfortunately, this is not always sufficient and it is sometimes determined after surgery that the cutting edges are not free of tumor cells. Research has already shown that there is a significantly better survival when a margin of at least 1 mm is maintained between the macroscopic tumor and the cut surface. It is therefore important to remove the tumor as completely as possible without the risk of residual tissue and with a sufficiently wide margin. The only method that can currently be used to determine during surgery if the tumor has been completely removed is to use "frozen sections". With a frozen section, the surgical piece is sent to the pathology department during the operation, where sections are taken from the edges. These are frozen in nitrogen and immediately viewed by a pathologist. If the cut edge is positive, this will be passed on to the surgeon who will take a wider resection if possible. Unfortunately, this method is time consuming and labor intensive. The evaluation of these cut edges on frozen section is not easy and requires a lot of experience. The percentage of false negative reviews for frozen section is not high, but it is true that it is not non-existent either. In addition, it is not possible to evaluate all cleavage surfaces peroperatively. This is currently happening for the distal pancreatic cutting edge and the bile duct cutting edge, but not, for example, for the posterior pancreatic surface and for the surface of the groove in which the superior mesenteric vein runs. The use of peroperative imaging in the form of 18F-FDG PET-CT scan of the tumor would be a clear asset for this. This would not only be faster than frozen sections, but also provide a full 3-dimensional image of the extracted specimen, which may provide more insights than 2D frozen sections. The ultimate goal of this study is to bring the high resolution PET-CT system into the operating theater. For example, during the operation, in the operating theater itself, it could be determined where residual tumor tissue would be present and then performed a wider resection in order to avoid a positive margin status.
Infigratinib is an oral drug which selectively binds to fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 1-3. This is a multicenter, open-label, single arm phase IIa study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Infigratinib in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma with FGFR2 genetic amplification or other advanced solid tumors with other FGFR genetic alternations who have failed in 2nd line or above treatment. This trial includes 2 cohorts (i.e., baskets) with above mentioned indications.
SUMMARY Rationale: Diagnostic laparoscopy (DL) and response assessment after neoadjuvant chemotherapy with computed tomography (CT) are two diagnostic modalities used to assess metastatic spread in gastric cancer patients. It is still unclear in what proportion of patients clinically relevant metastases or other significant findings (e.g. contra-indications of surgery) are detected that impact on the treatment. Objective: To determine the clinical value of diagnostic laparoscopy and computed tomography response assessment after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with gastric and esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma. Study design: Multicentre retrospective cohort study. Study population: All Patients with gastric and gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma who underwent clinical staging and were discussed at multidisciplinary team meetings (MDT) between January 2016 and December 2018. Intervention (if applicable): Not applicable. Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study parameter is the proportion (%) of patients who do not proceed with treatment as planned after a DL and CT response assessment (i.e. the proportion of patients in which metastasized disease or other contra-indications for surgery is found). Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Since this is an observational study, no burden or risks are associated with participation.
Phase 2, multicenter, single-arm, open-label basket study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of milademetan in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors refractory or intolerant to standard-of-care therapy that exhibit wild-type (WT) TP53 and MDM2 copy number (CN) ≥ 8 using prespecified biomarker criteria.
