Filter by:NiSAR is a Ph.D. study and consists of three substudies. Renal cancer is one of the most deadly urologic malignancies and accounts for 900 new cases and 300 deaths per year. An increase in the use of imaging diagnostics has yielded a rise in the incidental detection of small renal masses (SRM), meaning tumors <4cm (T1a). Kidney biopsies are the gold standard for diagnosing SRM but has an inherent risk of infections, retroperitoneal bleeding and in rare cases loss of kidney function. This is problematic since up to 30% of SRM are benign. This Ph.D. consists of three studies that all aim to develop new minimally invasive modalities for diagnosing SRM. Patients eligible for these studies are diagnosed with SRM at one of the departments of Urology in the southern region of Denmark. Studies 1 and 2 aims to find circulating biomarkers, in the form of DNA and messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) contained in micro vesicles secreted into blood by renal cell cancers and find changes in biomarkers levels after surgery. Study 3 aim to determine the potential of multiplanar MRI (mpMRI) to discriminate between benign and malign SRM. Potentially this can lead to a fundamental change of the way urologists diagnose and monitor SRM and renal cell cancer in general. The investigators will also build a research biobank for future research.
The purpose of the protocol, is to describe the use of cabozantinib tablets as monotherapy or in combination with nivolumab including the number of dose reductions, dose interruptions and terminations due to (serious) adverse events in subjects with advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) treated in real-life clinical setting in 1st line treatment.
This is a single arm, open-label, uni-center, phase I-II study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T/TCR-T cell immunotherapy in treating with different malignancies patients.
Generally, in the trials, an observant patient is described as correctly taking 90 to 100% of the prescribed doses. Here, the 80% compliance rate will be the cut-off between observant and non-observant patients. The evaluation methodology is based primarily on a survey of patients with metastatic or locally advanced kidney cancer who have just began an oral treatment protocol. The constitution of this cohort will be made from newly treated patients included by oncologists. The survey consists of implementing a series of questionnaires with each patient of the sample throughout the course of oral cancer care. This series of questionnaires will aim to identify: - the gradient of compliance of the patient with his treatment, - all the factors likely to influence positively or negatively the latter, whether medical, material or socio-economic, - the evolution of patient compliance during their treatment course, - a patient's quality of life index through the standardized quality of life survey form (EORTC - Quality of Life Questionnaire QLQ C30 version 3). - These questionnaires will be supplemented by the medical record data (including information on tolerance and possible drug interactions). The representativeness of the patients surveyed will be established by comparing the statistical characteristics of the surveyed population with those of the aggregate anonymous global data obtained by the two Medical Department of the French Regional Health Insurance of the two regions. From the data compiled by this study, different econometric models of patient behavior will seek to establish, in particular, a relationship between the probability that a given patient will be either non or poorly observant and the various variables proved to be statistically significant.
There are limited data regarding the biology and treatment of TFE Renal Cell Carcinoma (TFE RCC). This project provides the infrastructure for acquisition of biological specimens, imaging, and correlative clinical data to facilitate biology studies and characterization of TFE RCC. This registry will collect clinical, demographic, and pathological data, specimens (as available) and imaging from patients with TFE RCC, prospectively. Cases are identified through: 1. Existing clinical and/or cancer registry databases 2. Referrals from clinicians, surgeons, or pathologists 3. Families initiating contact with Registry staff directly
The BIOREN project aims are to characterize the genetic background of renal cell carcinomas and their immune environment, to try and identify biomarkers of response and to better understand the mechanisms of resistance to nivolumab in renal cancer.
The incidence of renal cancer in Denmark is approximately 900 new cases per year. Untreated, the 5-year survival rate for metastatic renal cancer (mRCC) is 2%. Development of angiogenesis inhibitors (AI) and check-point immunotherapy (CPI) has improved survival. Treatment efficacy is evaluated by CT scans, using RESIST 1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors). However, progressin in patients with mRCC treated with AI or CPI is difficult to characterize at the right time, using the RECIST 1.1. Therefore approximately 50 % of the patients are 'lost' to further treatment at the time of progression and die. The investigators aim to evaluate if functional imaging parameters using spectral CT-techniques can detect treatment failure earlier, or more accurate, than routine CT. This could help us develop a new set of response evaluation criteria for functional imaging, giving a more precise assessment of treatment effect in patients with mRCC treated with AI and CPI.
This is a randomized, Phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of pazopanib plus abexinostat versus pazopanib plus placebo in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
FASTERCC: Folic acid supplement versus placebo for treating mucositis adverse events in metastatic renal cell carcinoma patients receiving targeted therapy. A randomized, double-blind trial from the Danish renal cancer group (DARENCA study-4)
Assessment of the efficacy and safety of Regorafenib and Avelumab in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (ten cohorts), once the Recommanded Phase II Dose (RP2D) has been determined (phase I trial). Assessement of the efficacy and safety of a low-dose of regorafenib (80mg/day) with avelumab in patients with advanced or metastatic colorectal tumors.
