Filter by:The purpose of this research study is to learn about 2 types of FDA-approved catheters used in angiographic (X-ray of blood vessels, with radiopaque substance) procedures like DEB-TACE treatment. The Principal Investigator will check the beads given during the DEB-TACE. They will compare the way in which they are spread out in the tumor and density (how condensed something is).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of nivolumab plus epacadostat in combination with chemotherapy in first-line recurrent or metastatic patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) when compared to the standard of care (EXTREME regimen).
The KEO study is a single arm phase II trial including 44 patients with T1N1-2B, T2N0-N2B head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) eligible for curative-intent resection (+/- adjuvant therapy), who receive neo-adjvuant pembrolizumab + epacadostat. The primary objective of this study is to determine rate of major treatment effect (MTE) to neoadjuvant pembrolizumab+epacostat immunotherapy in SCCHN compared to historic data with neoadjuvant pembrolizumab alone.
The study aims to assess antineoplastic efficacy, safety, influence on quality of life and disease-related stress of propranolol taken in combination with sunitinib in previously untreated metastatic renal cell carcinoma
Expression of IDO and PD-1/L1 has been found to be increased in endometrial cancer. Expression of these markers on the tumor cells leads to immunosuppression in the micro-environment of tumors that prevents immune system from attacking and killing tumor cells. The purpose of this trial is to target these antigens by concomitant administration of drugs epacadostat and pembrolizumab, thereby removing twin mechanisms of immune-suppression that may lead to better control of tumor growth.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well contrast-enhanced ultrasound in diagnosing patients with liver cancer who are undergoing Yttrium-90 radioembolization. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound may provide detailed imaging of the tumor arteries after the injection of a contrast-agent consisting of microbubbles, and may predict how much Yttrium-90 will deposit in the tumor.
A phase II study to evaluate antitumor activity of oral cMET inhibitor INC280 in adult Chinese patients with EGFR wild-type, advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have received one or two prior lines of systemic therapy for advanced/metastatic disease as measured by overall response rate (ORR). The study will also evaluate safety and pharmacokinetics of INC280.
This randomized pilot trial studies how well robot-assisted laparoscopic high-intensity focused ultrasound works compared to robot-assisted radical cystectomy for thermal ablation of muscle invasive cells in patients with bladder tumors. Laparoscopic high-intensity focused ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to deliver a strong beam to a specific part of the tumor and may lower the number of tumor cells released into the blood stream compared to radical cystectomy.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well nivolumab or expectant observation following ipilimumab, nivolumab, and surgery work in treating patients with high-risk mucosal melanoma that is restricted to the site of origin without evidence of spread, has spread to a local and regional area of the body, or has come back. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sometimes the mucosal melanoma may not need more treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. It is not known if nivolumab or expectant observation following ipilimumab, nivolumab, and surgery may be better in treating patients with mucosal melanoma.
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of tazemetostat in treating patients with solid tumors or B-cell lymphomas with liver dysfunction that have spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Tazemetostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
