Filter by:In this study an artificial intelligence (AI) tool for skin cancer diagnosis is implemented in a teleldermatoscopy platform. The aim is to study the effects on clinician diagnostic accuracy, management decisions, and confidence. Furthermore, this prospective randomized study investigates the role of human factors in determining clinician reliance on AI tools and the consequent accuracy in a real-world setting.
This clinical trial evaluates a video-based psychoeducational intervention for patients with uveal melanoma. Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare intraocular cancer. UM patients face an uncertain course of survivorship in terms of their visual acuity, treatment-related side effects, and risk for eventual metastasis of the cancer. Learning about patients' thoughts and reactions to informational resources may better support patients during ocular melanoma survivorship.
This study explores the role of T cells in monitoring disease status and response during anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment in patients with melanoma, lung and other cancer types. Measuring levels of specific targets such as Bim and soluble PD-L1 during therapy may help track treatment resistance and clinical outcomes. This information may also help researchers determine why some people with melanoma, lung and other cancer types respond to PD-1/PD-L1 treatment and others do not.
The goal of this prospective observational study is to learn about patient quality of life and experience and medical information needs during uveal melanoma post-treatment surveillance. Participants have previously undergone treatment for non-metastatic uveal melanoma and have integrated a oncological and / or ophthalmic surveillance protocol based on their individual genomic and / or clinical risk of recurrence. The main objectives it aims to assess are: - To evaluate the effect of satisfaction with communication with the oncologist/ophthalmologist during the oncology/ophthalmology surveillance visit 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) on the overall level of health status/quality of life (QoL). - To explore the impact on psychosocial resources and needs such as fear of recurrence, anxiety and depression 6 months after the start of surveillance (T1) and 12 months after the start of surveillance (T2). - To document patients experience of care and communication during the first 12 months of surveillance. Participants will fill in quality of life questionnaires at two timepoints. A sub-sample will be offered to participate in qualitative research interviews. Researchers will compare data from patients at low risk of recurrence with those at high risk of recurrence to see if there are significant differences with regards to quality of life, satisfaction with care and medical information needs.
This is a phase II open-label, single-arm, multi-center study of tebentafusp in HLA- A*0201 positive previously untreated (1L) untreated metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) with an integrated circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) biomarker.
Background: A type of drug called monoclonal antibody immune checkpoint inhibitors are often used in cancer treatment. These drugs help the body s immune system fight cancer by blocking proteins that cause cancer cells to grow. One of these drugs (atezolizumab) is approved to treat certain cancers. Researchers want to find out if lower doses of this drug might provide the same benefit with fewer adverse effects. Objective: To test different doses and timing of atezolizumab for people with cancer. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with cancer that has spread locally or to other organs. They must be eligible for treatment with the study drug. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests and imaging scans. They will provide a sample of tissue from their tumor. Atezolizumab is administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will take this drug alone or combined with other drugs prescribed for their care. The first 2 treatments will be done per the FDA recommended dose and schedule. Before administering the second dose of the study drug, researchers will check the level of the drug in the participant s blood. Depending on those results, their 3rd dose will be scheduled 2 to 6 weeks later. For the 3rd dose of the study drug, participants will switch to the FDA minimum dosage. Dosages of any other drugs will not change. Researchers will continue to test the levels of the drug in participants blood before each treatment for 16 weeks. After that, these levels will be tested every 3 months. Study treatment may last up to 2 years.
This is a study to investigate the safety and efficacy of an investigational OBX-115 regimen in adult participants with advanced solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of ABP 206 compared with Nivolumab in Subjects with Treatment-Naïve Unresectable or Metastatic Melanoma.
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.
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is the reference in vivo imaging technique for identifying malignant melanocytic tumors prior to surgical excision. However, it is not widely used due to its high cost and highly technical and time-consuming nature. In addition to RCM, we currently use 2 less expensive dermatoscopes that also allow in vivo diagnosis: super-high magnification dermoscopy (D400) and Fluorescence-Advanced videodermatoscopy (FAV).
