Filter by:This is a prospective, non-randomized, observational registry study evaluating a patient-specific ex vivo 3D (EV3D) assay for drug response using a patient's own biopsy or resected tumor tissue for assessing tissue response to therapy in patients with advanced cancers, including ovarian cancer, high-grade gliomas, and high-grade rare tumors.
NK cells can persist and expand in vivo following adoptive transfer and may have a role in the treatment of late stage malignancies. NK also express an activating Fc receptor that mediates antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and production of immune modulatory cytokines in response to antibody-coated targets. Nimotuzumab, an monoclonal antibody against EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor), may enhance the ADCC effect of NK cell. This study will evaluate the safety of combination of nimotuzumab and NK Cell in treating advanced cancer patients. Blood samples will also be collected for research purposes.
Pembrolizumab plus autologous dendritic cell vaccine in patients with PD-L1 negative advanced mesothelioma who have failed prior therapies.This is an exploratory, single-arm, open-label, phase 1b clinical trial. Patients will receive pembrolizumab 200 mg and autologous dendritic cell vaccine every 3 weeks for the first 6 cycles, followed by pembrolizumab 200 mg every 3 weeks until confirmed progression or for a maximum of 2 years (see Figure 1 Study Schema). After each vaccine administration patients will receive IL-2 3 MU s.c. for 5 days, from day +2 to day +6.
A Phase 1 study will be conducted to establish safety and dose level of AMXT 1501 dicaprate alone, and in combination with DFMO, in cancer patients.
The investigators aim to introduce patients with advanced cancer to supportive care resources, including specialty palliative care, through a novel app called "ELOS" (stands for "extra layer of support) in a prospective cohort study. The investigators will compare participant acceptance of this new electronic tool to industry standards and follow ultimate referrals to outpatient palliative care compared to historical, matched controls.
This study is designed to test the safety and efficacy of the combination of lenvatinib, a drug that can inhibit the growth of supplying vessels around the tumors, and eribulin, a chemotherapy drug that targets the cancer cell during mitosis, in inoperable or metastatic adipocytic sarcoma and leiomyosarcoma.
This study was conducted to advance new treatment for patients with metastatic or locally advanced cancers expressing Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1). This study was the first time the investigational drug called 177Lu-3BP-227 was administered to patients under controlled conditions of a clinical study. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how safe the investigational drug is as well to verify how well it is tolerated by patients after several intravenous administrations. In addition, the effect of the study drug on tumoral lesions and how it distributes throughout the body and at which rate it is removed from the body was evaluated. Since 177Lu-3BP-227 is a radio-labelled drug, it also measured how the emitted radiation is distributed throughout the body (dosimetry). The study consisted of a phase I dose escalation part. The study originally planned to include a phase II study however due to early termination (not due to safety concerns) the study did not progress to phase II and was stopped during phase I. For the phase I dose escalation part, it was anticipated that approximately 30 subjects will be included, in up to six escalation steps. No expansion cohorts were implemented.
Background: The increase of chronic diseases has reached an increase in the suffering of advanced diseases and an inability of health care systems to give access to the population that suffers them. In this context are people with advanced cancer who are in palliative care and the family caregivers. Uncertainty in illness in palliative care and quality of life are two concepts that are altered in the patient's family caregiver in palliative care. Objective: to examine the feasibility and acceptability of a nursing intervention to reduce the uncertainty in illness and improve the quality of life of family caregivers of patients with cancer in palliative care. Methodology: Phase II clinical trial, the ratio of recruitment, follow-up of participants as well as satisfaction with the intervention will be evaluated as primary outcomes. As secondary outcomes, the possible effect of the intervention on the uncertainty in illness and the quality of life of the family caregiver will be evaluated. This study will be carry out in a health care institution in Medellin-Colombia.
This first-in-human open-label, dose escalation study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of MRX-2843 in subjects with relapsed/refractory advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous RC48-ADC in patients with local advanced or metastatic HER2 positive endothelial cancer.
