Filter by:KB707-01 is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and expansion study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB707 in adults with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have progressed on standard of care therapy, cannot tolerate standard of care therapy, refused standard of care therapy, or for whom there is no standard of care therapy. In this study, patients will receive KB707 via direct intratumoral (IT) injection into solid tumors to assess the safety and tolerability as well preliminary efficacy of KB707 monotherapy treatment.
As patients live longer after receiving an organ transplant, there is a need to reduce the long-term side effects of the drugs used to prevent organ rejection. In particular, long-term use of these drugs increases the risk of skin cancer. Skin cancer is now a leading cause of illness and disfigurement after kidney, liver, heart, and lung transplantation. Given the increased risk and burden of skin cancer in transplant recipients, prevention is critical. Nicotinamide is a form of Vitamin B3 that has been shown to protect against skin cancer in the general population. However, it is unclear whether nicotinamide is effective among immune-suppressed transplant recipients. Investigators will conduct a clinical trial involving multiple transplant centres in Canada to evaluate whether oral nicotinamide (500 mg twice daily) is effective and safe for preventing skin cancer. Investigators will recruit 396 high-risk adult kidney, liver, heart, and lung transplant patients who have previously had at least one skin cancer. Patients will receive nicotinamide or sham tablets for up to 4 years. The results will inform efforts to improve the long-term health of transplant recipients.
Study to evaluate the use of confocal microscopy for detecting resection margins in patients undergoing surgery for basal cell carcinoma of skin and squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck
This phase II trial tests how well cemiplimab works in treating basal cell carcinoma of the head and neck that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) before surgery (neoadjuvant). Cemiplimab is a human recombinant monoclonal IgG4 antibody that may allow the body's immune system to work against tumor cells. Giving cemiplimab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and make it easier to remove.
The overall aim of the project is to gain knowledge about the expected course of nevoid basal cell carcinomas and the usefulness of dermatoscopy in young individuals with Gorlin syndrome. Clinical experience and some case-reports suggest that nevoid basal cell carcinomas have an indolent course with slow growth and that they can sometimes regress. However, no systematic research has previously been performed. Increased knowledge about nevoid basal cell carcinomas and the use of dermatoscopy could be of great clinical value in the follow-up and treatment of individuals with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.
This phase I/II trial tests the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab with sirolimus and prednisone for the treatment of skin (cutaneous) cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) in kidney transplant recipients. Immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sirolimus and prednisone are immunosuppressants that are given to keep the body from rejecting the transplanted kidney. Giving nivolumab and ipilimumab in combination with sirolimus and prednisone may kill more cancer cells, while also keeping the transplanted kidney healthy, in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous cancer who have received a kidney transplant.
Participants of this study will have a diagnosis of a solid tumor cancer that has come back to its original location or spread beyond its original location (advanced), came back (relapsed) or worsened (refractory) after standard treatments, or no standard treatments are available for the participants' cancer. The purpose of this study if to find the highest dose of MQ710 that causes few or mild side effects in participants with a solid tumor cancer diagnosis.
To readdress basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in the periocular region to prove histologically controlled surgical treatment efficacy and to identify high-risk characteristics.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of cancer among the Caucasian population. A BCC diagnosis is commonly establish by means of an invasive punch biopsy (golden standard). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a safe non-invasive diagnostic modality which may replace biopsy if an OCT assessor is able to establish a high confidence BCC diagnosis. Hence, for clinical implementation of OCT, diagnostic certainty should be as high as possible. Artificial intelligence in the form of a clinical decision support system (CDSS) may improve the diagnostic certainty of newly trained OCT assessors by highlighting suspicious areas on OCT scans and by providing diagnostic suggestions (classification). This study will evaluate the effect of a CDSS on the diagnostic certainty and accuracy of OCT assessors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the use of two photon fluorescence microscopy for detecting residual basal cell carcinoma during Mohs surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: • How similar are diagnosis of surgical margins to on two photon fluorescence microscopy compared to frozen section histology
