Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of multiple dosing of avapritinib on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of midazolam in adult patients with metastatic or unresectable gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), recurrent gliomas, or other KIT mutant tumors.
Liver Transplantation for Unresectable GIST Liver Metastases
This is an open-label pilot study including 10 GIST patients scheduled for an elective open or laparoscopic resection at Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) and Erasmus Medical Center (EMC), Rotterdam. Patients will receive a single dose injection of 10mg ICG at a given moment during the 24 hours prior to surgery or during surgery. The timing of administration will be determined according to a step-up, step-down procedure. Standard of care surgery will be performed and a NIR fluorescence imaging system will be used to record the GIST under fluorescence.
This is a multi-institutional retrospective study in order to identify the most relevant and advisable features of follow-up, and to explore its impact on principal clinical outcomes. Moreover, a dedicated effort will be pursued to identify the peculiar characteristics (if any) of patients that experienced recurrence of the disease. The study will collect data about patients affected by primary GIST at very-low and low risk of recurrence/progression, referred to participating Institutions between January 2000 and February 2020
This is a single-arm, two cohort, open label phase I/II clinical trial studying the combination of oral imatinib 400 mg, once daily, and oral selinexor given once weekly (Cohort A); and single-agent oral selinexor 60 mg BIW (Cohort B). The study will consist of: - Cohort A: an initial escalation phase (Ib) evaluating increasing doses of selinexor in combination with fixed doses of imatinib administered in repeated 28-day cycles in advanced/metastatic, imatinib-resistant GIST patients, followed by an expansion phase (II) testing for safety and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity - Cohort B: single-agent, fixed selinexor dose in the same target population
This is a cross-sectional cohort study of metastatic GastroIntestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) patients on imatinib for ≥ 10 years included in EORTC trial 62005-STBSG entitled "Phase 3 randomized, intergroup, international tiral assessing the clinical activity of STI-571 at two dose levels in patients with unresectable or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) expressing the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase (CD117) - NCT00685828". With this study, the aim is to identify patient characteristics, tumour characteristics, treatment factors and quality of life outcomes associated with prolonged treatment with imatinib and/or prolonged survival. This observational study will further help to put in place a questionnaire to evaluate patients quality of life with prolonged imatinib treatment, that will then be used in a prospective study.
The PIONEER Initiative stands for Precision Insights On N-of-1 Ex vivo Effectiveness Research. The PIONEER Initiative is designed to provide access to functional precision medicine to any cancer patient with any tumor at any medical facility. Tumor tissue is saved at time of biopsy or surgery in multiple formats, including fresh and cryopreserved as a living biospecimen. SpeciCare assists with access to clinical records in order to provide information back to the patient and the patient's clinical care team. The biospecimen tumor tissue is stored in a bio-storage facility and can be shipped anywhere the patient and the clinical team require for further testing. Additionally, the cryopreservation of the biospecimen allows for decisions about testing to be made at a later date. It also facilitates participation in clinical trials. The ability to return research information from this repository back to the patient is the primary end point of the study. The secondary end point is the subjective assessment by the patient and his or her physician as to the potential benefit that this additional information provides over standard of care. Overall the goal of PIONEER is to enable best in class functional precision testing of a patient's tumor tissue to help guide optimal therapy (to date this type of analysis includes organoid drug screening approaches in addition to traditional genomic profiling).
Background: Long-term or life-long oral targeted therapy might also increase patients' distress, influencing patients' cognitive and life activity function, medication adherence and related care needs. However, very limited information has been known about patients' experiences. Purpose: First, to examine the changes of perceived physical and psychological distress, functional status, medication adherence, and unmet care needs; and second, to identify factors related to the changes of patients' medication adherence and unmet care needs by generalized estimating equation (GEE). Methods: This is a two-phase study. Phase I is a cross-sectional survey study, and the second phase is a 1-year follow-up prospective longitudinal study. Eligible subjects are CML and GIST patients newly taking oral targeted therapy. Patients will be assessed before taking the first targeted therapy and 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 12th month (T1-T6, respectively). The patients were assessed of their (1) symptom severity, (2) psychological distress, (3) cognitive and life activity function, (4) adherence, (5) social support, (6) unmet care needs, and (7) background and disease-treatment information. Data will be analyzed mainly by GEE to identify the predictors (independent variables) of the changes in medication adherence and unmet care needs overall the 12 months, 6 time points. After the approval of IRB, research assistants in different data collection sites will be trained for maintaining the consistency and quality of data collection. Expected Outcomes and Future Implications: Although CML and GIST are not the most prevalent cancers in Taiwan, the investigators aim to use both groups of patients groups to examine the current status and changes of distress, adherence and care needs in patients are taking long-term or life-long TKI derived oral targeted therapy. From Phase II study, the changes of newly TKI targeted therapy takers' distress, adherence and care needs would be carefully and in-depth examined. It will provide health care professionals a more comprehensive picture of the changes in patients' distress, adherence, and care needs during taking oral targeted therapy. The results will also provide as a basis and evidence for better development a timing and comprehensive care models to fit and increase patients' life quality during receiving the most advanced targeted therapy.
This is a US, multicenter, open-label expanded access program to provide access to avapritinib until such time that avapritinib becomes available through other mechanisms or the Sponsor chooses to discontinue the program.
This is a first-in-human, open-label, non-randomized, three-part phase 1 trial of INBRX-109, which is a recombinant humanized tetravalent antibody targeting the human death receptor 5 (DR5).
