Filter by:A first-in-human study using BDC-3042 as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced malignancies
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new smartphone-based program designed to help African American men get screened for colorectal cancer (CRC). The main question it aims to answer is: ° Are African American men who complete the smartphone-based program more likely to get screened for colorectal cancer than men who do not? Participants will: - Complete a baseline survey asking about their colorectal cancer screening history and their thoughts and beliefs about colorectal cancer and the medical system. - Be randomized to receive the new smartphone-based program or to receive text messages containing colorectal cancer education materials designed by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The new program sends text messages with information about colorectal cancer. Some of these text messages have links to videos that try to help men overcome anything that may stand in the way of getting screened. - Complete a follow-up survey 6 months after the baseline survey. This survey will ask the same questions as the baseline survey. - A medical records review will be conducted at 6 months to verify whether participants received a colorectal cancer screening test during the study period. Researchers will compare participants who receive the new smartphone-based program to participants who receive the CDC information. The goal is to see whether the smartphone-based program increasing screening more than standard educational materials available on the internet.
The goal of this study is to test A2B694, an autologous logic-gated Tmod™ CAR T-cell product in subjects with solid tumors including colorectal cancer (CRC), pancreatic cancer (PANC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), ovarian cancer (OVCA), mesothelioma (MESO), and other solid tumors that express MSLN and have lost HLA-A*02 expression. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Phase 1: What is the recommended dose of A2B694 that is safe for patients Phase 2: Does the recommended dose of A2B694 kill the solid tumor cells and protect the patient's healthy cells Participants will be required to perform study procedures and assessments, and will also receive the following study treatments: Enrollment and Apheresis in BASECAMP-1 (NCT04981119) Preconditioning Lymphodepletion (PCLD) Regimen A2B694 Tmod CAR T cells at the assigned dose
The study attempts to quantify the relative risks for mortality, anastomotic leakage and other early and late postoperative complications, recurrence rate, cancer-specific survival, recurrence-free survival after colorectal surgery for patients with colorectal cancer depending on the localization of the tumor.
Observational prospective cohort study designed to assess the mechanisms of fluoropyrimidine induced cardiovascular toxicity.
This Phase I clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) profile and preliminary efficacy of intratumoral injection of Carbon Nanoparticle-Loaded Iron [CNSI-Fe(II)] in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study also aims to observe dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) of CNSI-Fe(II) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the highest injectable dose in humans, providing dosing guidelines for future clinical studies. CNSI-Fe(II) shows promise as an innovative tumor therapeutic agent due to its unique properties of ferroptosis. The study primarily focuses on assessing the potential efficacy of CNSI-Fe(II) in patients with advanced solid tumors, particularly in patients with Kras mutation, e.g., pancreatic cancer patients.
This multi-site, Phase 1/2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype, and the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 when given with select SOC for the treatment of solid tumor patients with radiographically confirmed uncontrolled brain metastasis. The study will have three phases, Phase 1, Phase 2a and Phase 2b.
This is a single-arm, open, dose-increasing phase I clinical study to explore the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the drug C-13-60 cells, and preliminarily observe the efficacy of the drug in CEA positive late malignant solid tumors, and explore the applicable dose regimen for phase II clinical trials.
Objectives: To compare free-opioid anesthesia (the combination of epidural anesthesia, intravenous lidocaine, ketamine, propofol, and sevoflurane) and opioid anesthesia (fentanyl, propofol and sevoflurane) regarding intraoperative analgesic efficacy in colectomies and rectal resections at Viet Tiep Friendship Hospital. Methods: A prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial was performed on 98 patients who were anesthetized for colorectal surgery from December 2019 to November 2021. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: Group OA - Opioid anesthesia (n = 49): Intraoperative pain control by fentanyl; FOA group - Free-opioid anesthesia (n = 49): Intraoperative pain control by continuous infusion of lidocaine, bolus doses of ketamine combined with epidural levobupivacaine.
After introducing a nationwide screening program for colorectal cancer (CRC) in Denmark, more cases of early-stage CRC are being detected. Cancers in the earliest stages are often removed locally, either during the diagnostic colonoscopy or through planned minimally invasive surgery. This early detection of cancer, and thereby an improved prognosis, is a positive feature but has also introduced a new clinical dilemma. Is the patient fully cured by the local resection, or do they need further surgery? Whether further surgery is recommended at the Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) board meeting depends on the outcome of specific criteria from the histopathological assessment of the locally removed specimen. The presence of these criteria does not, however, translate directly into the presence of residual disease - merely into a theoretically increased risk. In Denmark, after surgery, the fraction of cases with residual disease has been around 15% for many years. In the remaining 85% of cases, local removal alone was curative - and the surgery appears excessive. Investigating blood samples for the presence of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a new and promising method for cancer detection. The method utilizes that cancer cells release ctDNA into the circulation. ctDNA detected in blood drawn from a patient a few days after local removal of a tumor indicates that residual disease is present and further treatment, such as surgery, is needed. The purpose of this study is to investigate, whether analyses of ctDNA can correctly identify patients with residual disease after local removal of early CRC. If this identification proves accurate, many patients can be spared further surgery.
