Filter by:Overall survival rates for patients with metastatic NSCLC are poor utilizing conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy approaches. However, a subset of patients harbor genomic driver mutations, which when targeted with specific therapies, experience improved outcomes. Unfortunately, identification of these mutations, although recommended in national guidelines, has been limited for a variety of factors including small biopsy samples. The broad application of a sensitive genomic profiling test, which simultaneously examines for multiple genomic alterations on limited biopsy material, could increase the identification of patients with actionable mutations and thereby improve survival in NSCLC. The FoundationOne test meets these requirements. A recent study using the FoundationOne assay identified a significant number of actionable mutations among NSCLC patients who were previously thought to be negative for mutations when tested using other approaches. This is a non-randomized observational comparative study with various cohorts based on physician diagnostic patterns of care and biologic genomic profile status. Survival and cost information will be compared based on different use of genomic profiling.
Brain metastases are the most common intracranial malignancy occurring in 20-40% of all cancers, and the presence of CNS metastases is associated with a poor prognosis. As such, the median overall survival of patients with symptomatic brain lesions is a dismal 2-3 months regardless of tumor type. Because standard chemotherapy largely does not cross the blood brain barrier at a meaningful concentration, standard treatment is limited and usually involves surgical resection and/or stereotactic radiosurgery for isolated lesions and whole brain radiation for multiple lesions. Unfortunately, the median overall survival is only improved by about 6 months with this multimodality approach2, and there is a paucity of second-line therapies to treat recurrence. Furthermore, re-resection and re-radiation are often not feasible options due to concern for increasing complications or neurotoxicity, respectively. Thus, there is a dire clinical need for additional treatment options for this patient population. Checkpoint blockade therapy, in particular PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibition, has recently shown clinical efficacy in multiple types of solid tumors. The investigators propose to study the efficacy of checkpoint blockade therapy in patients with solid tumors and refractory/recurrent brain metastases. The investigators will assess the efficacy of MEDI4736, a novel PD-L1 inhibitory monoclonal antibody, in this study.
The aim of this clinical trial was to determine if the therapeutic cancer vaccine OSE2101 (TEDOPI) was more effective than standard chemotherapy (docetaxel or pemetrexed) in treating HLA-A2 positive patients with metastatic NSCLC who progressed after sequential or concurrent chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor given in first or second-line treatment. The main questions were to compare the survival, the tolerance to treatment and the quality of life of patients between the two arms of treatment (OSE2101 versus standard chemotherapy)
This phase Ib trial studies the best way of TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 and cyclophosphamide in treating patients with a solid tumor that has spread from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body (metastatic), progressed for a long time (persistent), come back (recurrent), or is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressed). TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving TLR8 Agonist VTX-2337 together with cyclophosphamide may be a better treatment for solid tumors.
This is a non-randomized, multicenter, single-stage phase II study of mifepristone in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have failed two or more previous chemotherapy regimens. The Investigator plans to enroll 18 evaluable patients in Stage 1, and additionally up to 22 evaluable patients in Stage 2 for a total of 40 evaluable patients. Participants will be followed for overall survival. Current salvage therapy in advanced NSCLC achieves a median progression free survival time of 10 weeks and overall survival of 10 months. The Investigator would like to provide evidence that mifepristone will increase the median progression-free survival time to 15 weeks and overall survival time of 16 months.
Determine the safety, tolerability, dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ACY 241 in combination with nivolumab.
This clinical research study is being carried out in two parts, Phase 1 and Phase 2. The primary purpose of the Phase 1 portion of the study is to observe the safety of the combination of rociletinib and MPDL3280A in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients. The primary purpose of the Phase 2 portion of the study is to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor effects of the combination of rociletinib and MPDL3280A, at the best doses for the combination determined in Phase 1, in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
This study will evaluate progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), duration of response, and safety of motesanib (AMG706) in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin compared to placebo in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin.
Evaluation of FDG PET/CT to image immunotherapy response in adult thoracic cancer. Compare pre- and post-treatment primary tumor uptake for FDG-PET/CT and correlate with clinical markers of response. PET/CT tumor metabolic response will also be correlated will to progression-free survival and overall survival.
To compare the efficacy of afatinib maintenance with pemetrexed maintenance following induction therapy with platinum/ pemetrexed in patients with metastatic EGFR mutated non-small-cell lung cancer progressing after first-line treatment with afatinib as first tyrosine kinase inhibitor with respect to progression-free survival
