Filter by:A large number of patients with advanced cancer also suffer from cachexia. Cachexia is a syndrome characterized by loss of skeletal muscle mass (with/or without loss of fat mass) that cannot be reversed by nutritional support and progressively leads to functional impairment. Patients who suffer from anorexia and cachexia have lower survival rates. Some patients with cancer use cannabis to improve the way they feel and relieve their pain. However, there is very sparse high-quality research to prove that cannabis products are truly effective. This study will investigate patients with advanced cancer who use inhaled therapeutic cannabinoid-based medication (PPP011), in addition to palliative care management, and will assess if these patients experience improvement in functional status as a surrogate endpoint for survivalquality
The purpose of this study is to determine whether BMS-986288 both by itself and in combination with Nivolumab is safe and tolerable in the treatment of select advanced solid tumors.
There is still no effective treatment for advanced mucosal melanoma at present. The efficacy of single-agent PD-1 inhibitors is less than 20%. It is urgent to explore regimens to improve the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitors in patients with advanced mucosal melanoma. This study is performed to explore the safety and efficacy of apatinib plus SHR-1210 in patients with advanced mucosa melanoma whose diseases progress after chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of IPI-549 in combination with nivolumab when compared to nivolumab monotherapy in advanced urothelial cancer patients.
Cancer which has spread to the bone, causing bone metastases (bone tumours) can weaken bone health and increase risk of fractures (breaks). Consequently, patients can be unsure whether to exercise and health professionals can be unsure what exercise advice is suitable. Despite this, it is well known that exercise improves quality-of-life for patients with bone metastases and therefore it is important that exercise is prescribed to these patients. This study aims to increase understanding of the link between daily exercise and risk of fracture in patients with bone metastases.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ASP9801 and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). The study will also evaluate antitumor activity, objective response rate, pharmacokinetics and virus shedding of ASP9801 as a single agent, as well as in combination with pembrolizumab, an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) checkpoint inhibitor.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of SNK01 (autologous natural killer cell), as a single agent and in combination with avelumab or pembrolizumab, for the treatment of subjects with advanced and/or metastatic refractory cancer that has failed three or more prior lines of conventional standard of care therapy.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the study drug LY3434172, a PD-1/PD-L1 bispecific antibody, in participants with advanced solid tumors.
This is a Phase 1, open label, non-randomised, dose-escalation single agent study with expansion cohorts for dose confirmation/safety and preliminary efficacy of MCLA-145 in advanced or metastatic malignancies
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of osimertinib plus ramucirumab versus osimertinib alone using progression free survival (PFS). Events associated with PFS include: disease progression per RECIST 1.1 and death due to any cause. A total of 150 patients will be enrolled and randomized in a 2:1 fashion (osimertinib plus ramucirumab vs. osimertinib) to the two treatment arms according to the following stratification factors: types of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and presence of brain metastasis.
