Filter by:Phase II clinical trial, with two cohorts of patients included in parallel, all with melanoma BRAF mutated and brain metastases without previous local treatment in the brain. Cohort 1 will include patients with asymptomatic brain metastases and cohort 2 will include patients with symptomatic brain metastasis.
In this study, 50 women with either HER2+ or triple negative metastatic breast cancer but no known brain metastases will be recruited at the Sunnybrook Odette Cancer Centre. They will be randomized to undergo either routine MRI screening of their brain every 4 months for 1 year or standard-of-care (MRI only if symptoms of brain metastases develop). Patients will complete questionnaires about quality of life and cancer-related anxiety throughout the study. To determine why some cancers spread to the brain and others do not, blood samples will be collected to analyze the genetic makeup of patients' breast cancers. Finally, a novel MRI imaging technique that detects abnormal metabolism in the brain will be used to help detect brain metastases even earlier than the standard MRI. If results are promising, we will conduct a large multi-centre randomized trial to determine whether screening for brain metastases can help them live longer with improved quality of life.
The LIFE study (Lung cancer, Immunotherapy, Frailty, Effect) is investigating the unselected 'real life' non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) population treated with immune checkpoint inhibition.
This study is to find out if administration of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) given after Nivolumab will improve overall response rate/anti-tumor activity in patients with metastatic breast cancer with brain metastases.
A multi-center randomized phase III trial was conducted to investigate the feasibility and safety of adding temozolomide to hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy for large brain metastases.
This clinical study is a parallel, prospective observational single-centre trial in patients presenting with 5 to 30 brain metastases. Patients to receive either stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone or SRS plus whole brain radiation (WBRT) will be enrolled.
This open-label, multicenter, randomized phase II study will evaluate the usage of osimertinib alone for brain metastases compared to SRS and osimertinib in patients with newly diagnosed, treatment naiive EGFR positive lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of icotinib in combination with radiotherapy for NSCLC patients with brain metastases. The primary endpoint is PFS of intracranial lesions
To assess efficacy and safety of oral X-396 (Ensartinib) capsule in Chinese ALK-positive NSCLC patients with brain metastases, eligible patients will be enrolled with objective responses being primary outcome measures.
Up to 50% of patients with unresectable metastatic melanoma will develop brain metastases during their lifetime. A possible treatment options for patients with brain metastases are surgery and radiotherapy but usually for lesions in the range of < 3 brain metastases. This study was performed to evaluate the addition of immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with stage IV melanoma with > 3 symptomatic brain metastases, who are not eligible for surgery or radiosurgery.
