Filter by:This study will describe the efficacy of pamiparib in combination with tislelizumab in patients with advanced tumours harbouring molecular profiles consistent with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), agnostic of tumour origin. A tumour-agnostic approach has been adopted in this study due to the broad activity of PARP inhibitors across multiple tumour types. In addition, response to PARP inhibitors has been demonstrated in patients with genomic features associated with HRD, even in the absence of germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. These results suggest that the presence of HRD itself is the key predictive biomarker for PARP inhibitor efficacy. This paves the way for a precision-oncology, tumour-agnostic approach to patient selection for treatment, rather than the traditional tumour site-of-origin basis for which the current PARP inhibitor approvals exist. To investigate this, cohort A of this study includes patients with genomic features of HRD, but without a germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. Demonstration of clinical efficacy in this cohort will provide strong support to the tumour-agnostic, precision-oncology approach for patient selection for PARP inhibitor or PARP inhibitor combination treatment. This forms the primary objective of the study. The study will consist of two cohorts, broadly, cohort A - patients without a pathogenic BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation but with other germline or somatic mutations in other HRD genes; cohort B- patients with a pathogenic BRCA1 or BRCA2
This is a phase 2 randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess the preliminary efficacy of the a mobile health exercise intervention (GO-EXCAP) versus a chemotherapy education control in 100 older patients with MN receiving outpatient chemotherapy on physical function and patient-reported outcomes (fatigue, mood, and quality of life). We will also explore the effect of the intervention on TNFα and related cytokine gene promoter methylation and their gene and protein expression.
Objective: To collect information on how often a solid tumor cancer might lose the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) by next generation sequencing and perform apheresis to collect and store an eligible participant's own T cells for future use to make CAR T-Cell therapy for their disease treatment. Design: This is a non-interventional, observational study to evaluate participants with solid tumors with a high risk of relapse for incurable disease. No interventional therapy will be administered on this study. Some of the information regarding the participant's tumor analysis may be beneficial to management of their disease. Participants that meet all criteria may be enrolled and leukapheresed (blood cells collected). The participant's cells will be processed and stored for potential manufacture of CAR T-cell therapy upon relapse of their cancer.
This study was planned to examine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises applied to lung cancer patients receiving chemotherapy on dyspnea, pain and sleep quality.
VISAGE-ONCO study is a qualitative transversal study aiming to identify and describe processes and mechanisms that explain in cancerology the feelings and experience of patients and health professionals with regard to the possibility of having access to secondary findings generated by the use High-speed exome sequencing . Semi-structured interviews will be conducted with patients and health professionals to answer this aims from 2 situations. The first situation is in the context of the standard practice for theranostic purposes, where somatic and constitutional analysis of the various genes involved in carcinogenesis is carried out systematically in parallel. Patients are informed that the analysis of these genes may reveal the existence of a genetic predisposition to another type of cancer than the one for which patients have consulted, with a risk for themselves or their relatives, which could modify their management. This targeted information on genetic predisposition genes to cancer is therefore provided as part of standard management for theranostic purposes, but without any detailed exploration of the reasons why patients wanted to be informed. The second situation is in the framework exome analysis position in the strategy of genetic redisposition factors identification in early-onset cancer study (EX²TRICAN NCT04141462) where all the genes identified in human pathology are part of the analysis. Patients have the possibility of accessing a result concerning a gene that may or may not be linked to a hereditary cancer risk if patients have ticked off in the consent form the wish to be informed. Therefore, two distinct questions arise: - That of understanding the wish of patients to be given back actionable data which can be identified in a fortuitous way within the framework of standard management for theranostic purposes and in EX²TRICAN, by taking into account the fact that these data can constitute an opportunity for the patient in terms of management; but patients also constitute a risk of transmission for they relatives, and a psychological risk by the anxiety generated; - The wish to have access - or not - to data which are not actively sought today within the framework of standard care for theranostic purposes and in EX²TRICAN (genetic alterations increasing the risk of cardiovascular or metabolic diseases), but which could be proposed in a systematic way in the future because of their actionable character.
PROMISE is a multi-center, prospective and proof of concept study aimed to evaluate the performance of 3 prototype assays of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) mutation, cfDNA methylation and microRNA (miRNA) expression in early detection of multi-cancer. Assay(s) will be selected for further development. The study will enroll approximately 2035 participants, including participants with cancers and healthy participants.
This mixed methods study will involve obtaining user feedback on the first 4 weeks of the Healthy Habits for Cancer (HCC) Program. Short pre and post surveys and in-depth qualitative interviews will be conducted exploring their views on the app (features they liked and didn't like), the extent to which they believe the app would have to be further adapted, how they would feel about such an app being embedded in their cancer care and when in their care pathway they would like to be offered it.
This project is aimed at the discovery of neuro-modulation techniques that may alleviate chemotherapy induced cognitive deficits (CICD), especially in executive (higher-order) cognitive function (EF).
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether providing Pembrolizumab prolongs survival and preserves quality of life while minimizing side effects for patients with NSCLC with untreated asymptomatic brain metastasis.
The purpose of this study is to continue to develop a liquid biopsy (minimally invasive blood test) that can be used to confirm if breast cancer has spread throughout the body and if this liquid biopsy test can provide comparable information to a highly invasive tissue biopsy. The knowledge gained in this study could be used in future studies to confirm cancer recurrence using a safe and minimally invasive procedure. The research will consist of looking for tumor cell(s) circulating in the blood stream and if they are present to characterize them so that more information about the disease can be collected. This information may help us to better understand how to fight cancer.
