Filter by:This is a randomized, phase 1b study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of sovilnesib at different dose levels to establish the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of sovilnesib in subjects with high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC).
This is a first-in-human phase I/II study to examine the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of VLS-1488 in subjects with advanced cancers.
Chromosomal instability (CIN) refers to ongoing chromosome segregation errors throughout consecutive cell divisions. CIN is a hallmark of human cancer, and it is associated with poor prognosis, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance. Analyzing CIN of the DNA extracted from cast-off cells in bile samples seems a promising method for diagnosing, monitoring, and predicting the prognosis of biliary tract carcinoma patients. CIN can be assessed using experimental techniques such as bulk DNA sequencing, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), or conventional karyotyping. However, these techniques are either time-consuming or non-specific. The investigators here intend to study whether a new method named Bile Ultrasensitive Chromosomal Aneuploidy Detection (BileCAD), which is based on low-coverage whole-genome sequencing, can be used to analyze CIN and microbial infection analysis thus help diagnosing and treating biliary tract carcinoma patients.
Chromosomal instability (CIN) refers to the ongoing genomic change, which involves the amplification or deletion of chromosome copy number or structure. The changes rang from point mutation to small-scale genomic change and even the change of whole chromosome number. It has been reported that the characteristics of genomic rearrangement can be used as a marker of clinical outcome of high-grade serous ovarian cancer, and specific genomic rearrangement are related to the poor prognosis. In noninvasive gene detection with low coverage, patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer have deteriorating progression-free and overall survivals regardless of the tumor stage when somatic copy number distortion (sCNA) exceeds the threshold in plasma. The detection rate of sCNA increased along with the tumor stage. We enrolled those as our target patients, who are diagnosed with high-grade serous ovarian cancer and willing to take part in. The CIN in peripheral cell-free DNA was observed before initial treatment, after primary debulking or staging surgeries, before recurrence and during the process of recurrence treatment. Our aim is to explore the application of CIN in peripheral tumor DNA in the detection of minimal residual lesions (MRD) after primary treatment and recurrence monitoring.
PD1, as an immune checkpoint inhibitor, has provided a new therapeutic approach for patients with cancer, including patients. Although immunotherapy has proven effective, most patients do not benefit from it because of a large proportion which developing primary and acquired resistance. However, there is still a lack of accurate and effective molecular biomarkers to accurately evaluate the drug resistance of patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), so as to maximize the therapeutic effect in patients. Chromosomal instability (CIN) is one of the most prominent and common characteristics of solid tumors, accelerating the development of anti-cancer drug resistance, often leading to treatment failure and disease recurrence, which limits the effectiveness of most current treatments. Hence the aim of this study is to evaluate dynamic CIN continuously monitored in the blood of patients with lung cancer treated with ICIs with Ultrasensitive Chromosomal Aneuploidy Detection (UCAD) to establish a new molecular immune resistance evaluation index. Further, the correlation between the evolution of tumor cloning and ICI resistance in patients during treatment was analyzed based on the results of dynamic CIN detection. This not only evaluate the efficacy of the ICI treatment in real-time, but also enables better understanding and overcoming the resistance mechanism of immunotherapy in the future.
