Filter by:This trial is a translational, open-label, multicentric, prospective cohort study of 900 patients aiming to describe the PD-1 (programmed death) expression in T cells (T lymphocytes) in different solid tumors. The study will be conducted on a population of patients with local and/or metastatic malignant solid tumor and who are followed within a standard of care procedure or clinical trial. Patients with any of the following tumor types may be enrolled in the trial: - Head and neck cancer, - Ovarian cancer, - Cervical cancer, - Pre-invasive CIN III cervical cancer (Cervical Intra-epithelial Neoplasia III cervical cancer), - Other solid tumor types (including glioblastoma, NSCLC (Non-small cell lung cancer), anal cancer) Each tumor type will be considered as an independent cohort. For each included patient, biological specimen (tumor sample, blood samples and ascites samples if applicable) will be collected. Study participation of each patient will be 5 years.
MRI including ASL will be performed before, during and after the treatment, in a total of 7 MRI sessions until 8 months after the first session. Thereafter, patients will be followed through standard clinical examinations for the next 3 years or until demise, whichever occurs first. Clinically, GBM patients are imaged every 8-weeks, beginning at 10 weeks after the completion of chemoradiation, since morphological (i.e. size) changes are not anticipated earlier. However, our preliminary experience and others have shown functional changes including perfusion and diffusion as early as 3-weeks after the initiation of the treatment . Thus, our T10, T18, T26 and T34 MRI sessions will be performed along with the clinical imaging sessions, while the T3 and T6 MRI sessions will be performed additionally for this proposal. All MR imaging sessions will be scheduled within ±1 or ±2 weeks of the target time period, as indicated in the table. MRI including ASL will be performed before, during and after the treatment, in a total of 7 MRI sessions until 8 months after the first session. The research MR imaging may take approximately an additional 15 minutes per each imaging session. However, the T3, and T6 MR imaging sessions will be performed additionally for the purpose of this study, with each taking approximately one hour. Thereafter, patients will be followed through standard clinical examinations for the next 3 years or until demise, whichever occurs first.
This phase II trial studies how well the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib works after radiation therapy in children and young adults with high grade glioma who have a genetic change called BRAF V600 mutation. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and reduce the size of tumors. Dabrafenib and trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking BRAF and MEK, respectively, which are enzymes that tumor cells need for their growth. Giving dabrafenib with trametinib after radiation therapy may work better than treatments used in the past in patients with newly-diagnosed BRAF V600-mutant high-grade glioma.
The Phase II study to determine the safety and efficacy of V-Boost in treating a type of brain cancer called Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM). V-Boost is an immunotherapy in which the patient's immune system will be modulated to eliminate tumor cells. V-Boost is made as an oral tablet which contains specially formulated hydrolyzed GBM antigens along with alloantigens. Patients are either newly diagnosed or with recurrent form of GBM who may have been subjected to surgery and/or chemo- or radiation therapy that ended up unsuccessful. The goal is to eradicate GBM tumor cells through daily oral administration of one pill of V-Boost immunotherapeutic vaccine, which so far has not shown any adverse reaction.
This study is a non-randomized, prospective, multicentric feasibility study assessing 68Ga-PSMA PET-CT and 18F-FDOPA PET-CT to differentiate early recurrence from post-radiation modifications in patients treated with radiotherapy for glioblastoma. Patients with a MRI performed since the end of the radiotherapy until 12 months of follow up after the end of radiotherapy, will be referred for both 68Ga-PSMA and 18F-FDOPA PET-CT, whatever the conclusion of the MRI (post radiation modifications, relapse or doubtful MRI). The rationale of doing 68Ga-PSMA and 18F-FDOPA brain PET-CT in each case will be discussed in detail with the referring physician and an informed consent will be taken from each patient for the study. The two imaging studies will be done at least with a gap of 6 hours, using the same PET-CT scanner.
The trial is an open, multicenter, explorative, pilot phase II study in a small number of patients to assess safety and efficacy of stereotactic interstitial photodynamic therapy (iPDT) with PD L 506 in newly diagnosed supratentorial IDH wild-type glioblastoma.
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).
This phase I trial studies best dose and side effects of oncolytic adenovirus DNX-2401 in treating patients with high-grade glioma that has come back (recurrent). Oncolytic adenovirus DNX-2401 is made from the common cold virus that has been changed in the laboratory to make it less likely to cause an infection (such as a cold). The virus is also changed to target brain cancer cells and attack them.
This phase I/II trials evaluates the feasibility, safety and efficacy of an individualized cancer vaccine, based on autologous, tumor-lysate loaded dendritic cells in children and adolescents with relapsed high-grade gliomas. In addition, regulatory T cells are depleted by a short cycle of metronomic cyclophosphamide upfront of the vaccine in order to facilitate induction of immune responses. Therapeutic DC vaccines are followed by four cycles of Nivo/Ipi double checkpoint blockade and a Nivolumab monotherapy maintenance in order to optimize the induced T-cell response.
Study Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety outcome of newly diagnosed GBM patients treated with NovoTTF-200A concomitant to RT and TMZ to those treated with RT and TMZ alone Study Design: Prospective, randomized, open label, standard of care control Study Hypothesis: The hypothesis of this study is that addition of NovoTTF-200A treatment to RT and TMZ will significantly increase progression free survival of newly diagnosed GBM patients compared to patients treated with RT and TMZ alone Sample Size: 60 patients with newly diagnosed GBM Study Population: Patients with tissue based diagnosis of GBM, above 18 years of age, of both genders after surgery or biopsy amenable for radiation therapy (RT) with concomitant TMZ (Stupp protocol1) Primary endpoint: Rate of progression-free survival at 12 months (PFS12) Secondary endpoints: - Overall survival (OS) - Progression-free survival (PFS) - Progression free survival at 6 months (PFS6) - 1 and 2-year survival rates - Overall radiological response (ORR, per RANO criteria) - Safety (adverse events severity and frequency)
