NCT ID: NCT06438588 Recruiting - Melanoma Clinical Trials

Fasting Mimicking Diet for Reducing Immune Related Adverse Events for Cancer Patients on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors, FMD-ICI Trial

Start date: March 6, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial assesses an effective and translatable care model to understand and reduce the adverse effects that cancer patients experience during their treatment therapies and thereby enhance their well-being and quality of life. Excessive immune activation can affect multiple organs with the most common adverse effects being skin rash, diarrhea, colitis, fatigue, hypothyroidism and anorexia. A restrictive calorie diet, mostly of fat and complex carbohydrates, will mimic fasting and increase resiliency to protect patients from the adverse effects of cancer treatments, by managing the adverse side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) treatments in select cancer patients. The fast mimicking diet (FMD) (Xentigen®) is a calorie restrictive, low-calorie, low-protein, high complex carbohydrate, high-fat diet. The FMD program is a plant-based diet program designed to attain fasting-like effects while providing both macro- and micronutrients to minimize the burden of fasting and adverse effects. The FMD consists of 100% ingredients which are generally regarded as safe (GRAS) and comprises mainly of vegetable-based soups and broths, energy bars, energy drinks, cracker snacks, herbal teas, and supplements. Following a FMD may reduce the adverse effects that some cancer patients experience while following immunotherapy treatments.

An Investigational Scan (124I-hJAA-F11 PET/CT) for Diagnosing Lung Cancer

Start date: September 1, 2024
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial studies the side effects of 124I-hJAA-F11, and evaluates how well it works in diagnosing lung cancer. 124I-hJAA-F11 uses a known radioactive substance used in imaging called iodine 124 (124I). hJAA-F11 is an experimental (investigational) antibody that is currently being evaluated as a potential treatment for lung cancer. In animal studies, hJAA-F11 has shown anti-tumor activity against tumors bearing the Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen that is found in over 90% of lung cancers. 124I-hJAA-F11 has the 124I radioactive dye attached to this investigational antibody, which may be a potential tool for imaging-based diagnosis of lung cancer.

NCT ID: NCT06418204 Not yet recruiting - Melanoma Clinical Trials

Assessing Benefits and Harms of Cannabis/Cannabinoid Use Among Cancer Patients Treated in Community Oncology Clinics

COSMIC
Start date: August 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is a multi-site clinical study enrolling 2000 newly diagnosed patients with breast, colorectal, melanoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or non-small cell lung cancer, who are planning to receive one or more systemic cancer directed therapies with chemotherapy and/or (immune checkpoint inhibitors) ICIs.

NCT ID: NCT06265285 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Comparison of In-Home Versus In-Clinic Administration of Subcutaneous Nivolumab Through Cancer CARE (Connected Access and Remote Expertise) Beyond Walls (CCBW) Program

Start date: March 13, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial compares the impact of subcutaneous (SC) nivolumab given in an in-home setting to an in-clinic setting on cancer care and quality of life. Currently, most drug-related cancer care is conducted in clinic type centers or hospitals which may isolate patients from family, friends and familiar surroundings for many hours per day. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. Traveling to and from medical facilities costs time, money, and effort and can be a disadvantage to patients living in rural areas, those with low incomes or poor access to transport. Studies have shown that cancer patients often feel more comfortable and secure being cared for in their own home environments. SC nivolumab in-home treatment may be safe, tolerable and/or effective when compared to in-clinic treatment and may reduce the burden of cancer and improve the quality of life in cancer patients.

NCT ID: NCT06225427 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage IV Lung Cancer AJCC v8

Gilteritinib for the Treatment of ALK NSCLC

Start date: May 2024
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial is studying the safety, side effects, and best dose of gilteritinib in treating patients with stage IV ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have progressed on other treatments. While there are many approved targeted drugs for ALK NSCLC, resistance to these drugs frequently occur. Giltertinib is a drug that is already FDA approved for the treatment of a specific type of leukemia. However, studies using ALK positive lung cancer cells demonstrate activity of gilteritinib against these resistant cells. Therefore, in this clinical trial, the investigators plan to study the effect of giltertinib in patients with ALK NSCLC.

NCT ID: NCT06139627 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage III Lung Cancer AJCC v8

Evaluation of Geriatric Assessment and Management for Older Adults With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy Radiation Therapy

Start date: June 16, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial tests how well a geriatric assessment (GA) with GA-directed treatment recommendations, compared to GA with usual care, works in identifying risk factors, reducing chemotherapy radiation toxicity and functional decline, and improving the overall quality of life in older patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Older patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy are at an increased risk of adverse outcomes including treatment toxicity and functional and physical consequences. This makes it very challenging for the physicians to balance the benefits against the risk of chemotherapy in older cancer patients. A geriatric assessment may be useful in identifying risk factors for chemotherapy radiation toxicity. Communicating these geriatric assessment findings and assessment-based recommendations to a patient's treating physicians may help them make more informed decisions about treatment options for patients. Making treatment decisions using GA-based recommendations may reduce adverse events and improve outcomes in patients receiving treatment for NSCLC.

NCT ID: NCT06122064 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage IV Lung Cancer AJCC v8

A Tool for Improving the Shared Decision-making Process in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Start date: November 20, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial compares the use of a shared decision-making communication tool during a clinical encounter to standard care for improving the quality of the shared decision-making process among patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Lung cancer patients are faced with many decisions about their treatment options. Studies have found that patients are most satisfied if they perceive an effort by their physician to share decision making and are afforded sufficient time to make their decision. Shared decision-making tools can help physicians guide the conversation, offer tailored estimates of the potential benefits, harms, and practical inconveniences of the available options, and support deliberations that take into account patient biological and biographical circumstances, goals, and priorities. Incorporating a shared decision-making communication tool into standard clinical encounters may improve the shared-decision making process as well as patient satisfaction with their treatment choice.

NCT ID: NCT06116682 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Lung Non-Small Cell Carcinoma

Targeted Treatment for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer That Has Increased Copies of the MET Gene (An Expanded Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)

Start date: July 16, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial tests how well amivantamab-vmjw works in treating patients patients with MET amplification non-small cell lung cancer. Amivantamab-vmjw is a drug that reduces extra copies of the MET gene, a change present in your tumor. Giving amivantamab-vmjw may lower the chance of the growth or spread of advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has extra copies of the MET gene in the tumor.

NCT ID: NCT06014827 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage IV Lung Cancer AJCC v8

Biologically Guided Radiation Therapy (BgRT) and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) With Osimertinib for the Treatment of Patients With Oligoprogressive EGFR Positive Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma

Start date: June 25, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial tests how well biologically guided radiation therapy (BgRT) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with osimertinib works for the treatment of EGFR positive non-small cell lung carcinoma that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to a limited number of anatomic sites (oligoprogressive). BgRT is radiation that uses specialized imaging to during treatment to target the active tumor and direct radiation to tumors in order to kill and shrink tumor cells. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Osimertinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of a protein called EGFR that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Giving BgRT with SBRT and osimertinib may kill more tumor cells in patients with oligoprogressive EGFR positive non-small cell lung carcinoma.

NCT ID: NCT05830058 Recruiting - Melanoma Clinical Trials

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Oligoprogressive Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, Melanoma, and Renal Cell Carcinoma

Start date: November 29, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial tests the safety of positron emission tomography (PET) guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and how well it works to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has up to 5 sites of progression (oligoprogression) compared to standard SBRT. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. A PET scan is an imaging test that looks at your tissues and organs using a small amount of a radioactive substance. It also checks for cancer and may help find cancer remaining in areas already treated. Using a PET scan for SBRT planning may help increase the dose of radiation given to the most resistant part of the cancer in patients with oligoprogressive NSCLC, melanoma, and RCC.
