Filter by:The objectives of this study are to explore different dosing levels and schedules of entinostat in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors, in terms of safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), impact on immune correlatives, and efficacy
Registry participants with advanced malignancy or myelodysplasia will have a sample of their tumor or tissue analysed for genetic alterations using next generation sequencing (NGS) performed in a lab that has been certified to meet a high quality standard. Treatments and outcomes will be reported to the registry to allow further understanding of how genetic differences can lead to better diagnosis and treatments.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of entinostat on heart rate and other electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of entinostat, as well as pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters.
The purpose of this study was to combine the PDR001 checkpoint inhibitor with several agents with immunomodulatory activity to identify the doses and schedule for combination therapy and to preliminarily assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacological and clinical activity of these combinations.
The aims of this work were to assess the feasibility, efficacy, short-term outcome and safety of microwave ablation in the treatment of malignant bone, lung and renal tumors.
The rise of oral targeted therapies favors outpatient care of cancer patients but exposes them to new risks compared to the injectable chemotherapy in the hospital: non-adherence to treatment, inappropriate management of side effects and interactions with other co-prescribed drugs. The clinical consequences (reduced efficacy and potentialized toxicity) are all the more important that ambulatory monitoring of treatments prescribed at the hospital remains underdeveloped due to default of coordination between these two settings. Adverse drug reactions are a major concern, as such, and because they involve prescription changes (dose reduction, treatment interruption). This results in a decrease in the dose taken and a risk of loss of efficacy. In the context of metastatic renal cell carcinoma, the risk of iatrogenicity is even higher because the oral targeted therapies available in this indication have a safety profile marked by potentially serious toxicities (hematologic and cardiac toxicity) or are known to reduce the treatment adherence (digestive and skin toxicities). In addition, these molecules are metabolized by the CYP3A4 hepatic cytochrome, which leads to avoid associating them with drugs inducing and / or inhibiting the CYP3A4, because of the risk of toxicity and / or loss of efficacy. The investigators propose to assess a program set up to secure drug taking by enhancing self-management of side effects and control of drug interactions by the patient. This program includes pharmaceutical visits and involves inpatient and outpatient (doctor, referent pharmacist and liberal nurse) professionals. The hypothesis of the study is that the PRISM care program will improve self-management of side effects by the patient, resulting in a relative dose intensity of oral chemotherapy improved compared to usual care.
The purpose of this study is to determine if biopsy for non-neoplastic renal disease for patients with a small renal mass results in greater postoperative renal function than the current standard of care (no additional biopsy).
This is a study to determine the safety of CDX-014 and effectiveness (how well the drug works).
Everolimus is an inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin, approved in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The objective of this study is to investigated the influence of everolimus immune modulation on antitumor efficacy .
Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) is an emerging technique delivering electrical pulses to ablate tissue, with the theoretical advantage to overcome the main shortcomings of conventional thermal ablation. Recent short-term research showed that IRE for the ablation of renal masses is a safe and feasible treatment option. In an ablate and resect design, histopathological analysis 4 weeks after radical nephrectomy demonstrated that IRE targeted renal tumors were completely covered by ablation zone. In order to develop a validated long-term IRE follow-up study, it is essential to obtain clinical confirmation of the efficacy of this novel technology. Additionally, follow-up after IRE ablation obliges verification of a suitable imaging modality. The objectives of this study are the clinical efficacy and safety of IRE ablation of renal masses and to evaluate the use of cross-sectional imaging modalities in the follow-up after IRE in renal tumours. This is a prospective, human, in-vivo study among 20 patients presenting with solid enhancing SRM on cross sectional imaging suspect for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Preoperatively, imaging is required through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography (CT). Furthermore, serum creatinine levels and VAS scores are obtained. A biopsy of the SRM will be performed in preoperative setting. IRE ablation will be performed using CT-guidance and ablation success will be measured directly after the ablation through contrast-enhanced CT. Device related adverse events (AE) will be registered using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 guideline. One week post ablation only CEUS and MRI will be performed to limit exposure to ionizing radiation. At 3 months, 6 months and 12 months post ablation CEUS, MRI and CT will be performed. Additionally, at these time points serum creatinine levels and VAS scores will be obtained, and quality of life will be assessed through SF-36 questionnaires. Residual and recurrent disease will be assessed through tissue enhancement on cross sectional imaging.
