Filter by:This study will look at the safety and effects of combining a new drug called Talimogene Laherparepvec (T-VEC) with chemotherapy delivered by Isolated Limb Perfusion (ILP). The investigators want to find out whether these two treatments can be combined safely and whether T-VEC with ILP is better at treating your cancer than with ILP alone.
The therapeutic arsenal of metastatic melanoma has changed considerably over the past 10 years. The treatment of metastatic melanoma is now based on immunotherapy and targeted therapies, while the place of conventional chemotherapy becomes more restricted. Targeted therapies are indicated for BRAF mutated melanomas. The mutation BRAF leads activation of MAP Kinases pathway and the proliferation of melanoma cell in the body . About 50% of metastatic melanoma is BRAF mutated. The most frequent mutation is the V600E. The targeted therapy by anti BRAF and anti MEK allows the double bloking of the MAP Kinases pathway. This treatment is more efficient than that of the anti BRAF alone. The association of anti BRAF and anti MEK have a global survival global rate of 41% at the 1 year, against 9% for the anti BRAF . In 2014, a program of extended access to the association of anti BRAF and anti MEK (dabrafenib and trametinib) started in many french hospitals (Protocol Mekinist, Novartis laboratory). Patients who were included in this program and followed in Poitiers Hospital, had frequent abnormalities of albumin level without any sign of undernutrition. Hypoabuminemia is a poor prognosis factor described in many cancers, including metastatic melanoma. The only prognostic factor in metastatic melanoma is the rate of LDH . The level of albumin and its prognostic impact have not been studied for patients with a metastatic melanoma and treated by anti BRAF and anti MEK. The objective of this studie was to analyze the variations of albumin level in patients with unresecable stage IIIc or stage IV melanoma treated in our Center by dabrafenib and trametinib
The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact on pyrexia-related outcomes of an adapted pyrexia adverse event (AE)-management algorithm, as well as safety, efficacy and health-related outcomes.
A diagnostic sensitivity study comparing intradermal indocyanine green (ICG) and near infrared fluorescence imaging (NIRFI) with intradermal technetium 99m and traditional lymphoscintigraphy (LS) for transcutaneous identification of sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) in malignant melanoma - a prospective Phase II clinical study in a single center.
Malignant melanoma, responsible for 75% of deaths from skin cancer. Current therapeutic options have poor response, many adverse events and high costs. For this reason, a study with nutritional supplement Oncoxin-Viusid was carried out. According to previous studies, it has an antitumor, immunomodulatory effect and to potentiate the antiproliferative effect of standard chemotherapeutic agents in different locations and stages of cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCAGN02385 in participants with advanced malignancies.
The goal of the SFI is to provide non-invasive information about tissue remodeling occurring during melanocytic transition and atypia development in the skin
This is a feasibility study for the use of [18F]PD-L1 as a PET tracer that will be conducted in a single center. The study consists of two phases. The aim of phase one is to provide pharmacokinetic information on the tracer and to determine the optimal time point for imaging. In the second phase the main study objective will be assessed.
Few studies have been conducted on the quality of life of patients with stage IV melanoma. Particularly, there is no data regarding the quality of life of patients with a multimetastatic melanoma currently in remission. Then, the main objective of this study is to evaluate the quality of life from a point of view medico-psycho-social in patients with multimetastatic melanoma in remission for more than 6 months.
This is a Phase 1, multiple dose, ascending dose escalation study to define a MTD/RD and regimen of XmAb20717, to describe safety and tolerability, to assess PK and immunogenicity, and to preliminarily assess anti-tumor activity of XmAb20717 in subjects with selected advanced solid tumors.
