Filter by:To test the use of a continuous activity and heart rate tracker (Fitbit) and continuous glucose monitor (CGM) in monitoring daily exercise-related activities.
To evaluate the efficacy of sirolimus by estimating the overall response rate (ORR) as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) in patients with metastatic dMMR solid cancer after immunotherapy (either due to disease progression or to inability to tolerate treatment).
This study will involve collaborating with oncologists in the post-chemotherapy follow-up appointments. The participants who wish to consent to this study will then answer 3 short questionnaires (THI, HHIA and SF-36) about hearing loss, tinnitus and quality of life. The audiologist or the researcher, under the supervision of an audiologist, will then perform a simple, non-invasive hearing test on the participant. Should the participant have a hearing loss, they will be advise to seek help from their General Practitioner.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) of HGS1036 when used in combination with the standard chemotherapeutic regimens paclitaxel plus carboplatin, cisplatin plus etoposide, or docetaxel.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug called APS001F when given with flucytosine (5-FC) for treatment of solid tumors. APS001F is a recombinant Bifidobacterium longum (a live bacteria normally found in the digestive tract) that has been modified to produce an enzyme, cytosine deaminase (CD). The patient will first receive an injection of APS001F followed by oral 5-FC. APS001F is expected to go to the site of the tumor(s) where the agent will produce CD enzyme. CD enzyme will convert the 5-FC into 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) which is a standard chemotherapy drug for several types of cancer. Additionally, some patients will also receive 10% maltose injection, a sugar that has been shown to enhance the growth and effectiveness of APS001F in animals. This is the first study where APS001F is being used in humans.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether specific assays of DNA damage repair proteins can be used in patients undergoing radiation therapy. The ultimate goal of this research is to develop clinically useful biomarkers from blood samples that could be used to customize radiation treatment for individuals, leading to reduced side effects and improved outcomes.
The primary objective of this study is to estimate the accuracy of the pre-operative VRI quantitative results versus the gold standard pre-operative perfusion scan. The secondary objective is to assess the correlation of the predicted post-operative lung function with the observed post-operative lung function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV1] and diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide [DLCO]) in patients who underwent surgical resection.
The purpose of this study is to investigate E7107 in patients with solid tumors. This is an open label, dose-escalation study of E7107. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the single agent will be established by determining the occurrence of dose limiting toxicities during the first three weeks of therapy (Cycle 1). Patients in this study will be treated at multiple dose levels, starting at 0.6 mg/m^2. Patients will receive E7107 as a 30-minute intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8 every 21 Days.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of XL418 in subjects with solid tumors. XL418 is a new chemical entity that inhibits a spectrum of targets, including Akt and p70S6K, that mediate PI3 Kinase / PTEN signaling.
Two-centre, open-label, non-randomized, dose-finding phase I study to determine the MTD of E7107 administered by intravenous infusion (as a 2-5 minutes bolus) on days 1, 8 and 15 every 28 days in patients with solid tumors, for whom therapy of proven efficacy does not exist or is not longer effective.
