Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of tucatinib and capecitabine in combination with intrathecal trastuzumab on overall survival rate at 12 months in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with proven leptomeningeal evolution and requiring intrathecal therapy.
Leptomeningeal metastasis is a rare but serious complication to cancer, with a grave prognosis. No efficient treatment exists. Recent data suggest that craniospinal radiotherapy lead to superior survival and CNS control compared to focal photon radiotherapy. We want to offer Danish patients the new treatment, but within a protocol, as this is new data with an new treatment principle
The objective of the present study is to determine the feasibility and to explore anti-tumor activity of intrathecal double immune checkpoint inhibition for patients with newly diagnosed leptomeningeal metastases from non-small cell lung cancer without driver mutation or melanoma.
The FORESEE Study is a multi-center, prospective clinical trial enrolling patients with Breast or Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) who have suspicious or confirmed Leptomeningeal Metastases (LM). Standard of Care methods to diagnose, or assess the treatment response of LM (Clinical Evaluation, MRI and Cytology) have limited sensitivity and specificity. This creates challenges for physicians to manage LM or determine the best course of treatment. CNSide, is a Laboratory Developed Test (LDT ) that is used commercially at the Physician's discretion in Biocept's CLIA certified, CAP accredited laboratory. CNSide can detect and quantify tumor cells in the CSF from patients with Breast Cancer or NSCLC having a suspicious or confirmed LM. The goal of the FORESEE Study is to evaluate the performance of CNSide in monitoring the LM's response to treatment and to assess the impact of CNSide on treatment decisions made by Physicians.
immune checkpoint inhibitor combined with recombinant human endostatin can improve the 3-month OS rate of leptomeningeal metastasis of lung cancer, and the combination is safe
Intrathecal chemotherapy is one of the mainstay treatment options for leptomeningeal metastases. Owing to the limited number of agents available for intrathecal chemotherapy, it is crucial to find a novel agent with efficacy and safety. In our phase 1 study, intrathecal pemetrexed showed controllable toxicities and potential promising efficacy for refractory leptomeningeal metastases from non-small-cell lung cancer patients. In our further study, intrathecal pemetrexed combined with involved-field radiation therapy was administered as the first-line intrathecal chemotherapy for leptomeningeal metastases from solid tumors. In this study, intrathecal pemetrexed combined with involved-field radiation therapy showed feasibility and controllable adverse events. It has been proved that pemetrexed as a novel intrathecal drug exhibited promising antitumor effects in cerebrospinal fluid. Moreover, the concomitant therapeutic modality is an optimal treatment option for leptomeningeal metastases from solid tumors. Central nervous system radiotherapy is a part of the specific treatment of leptomeningeal metastases. Radiotherapy has been proved to improve neurologic function and control of parenchymal brain metastases in leptomeningeal metastases treatment. Additionally, radiotherapy is revealed to improve the efficacy and attenuate toxicity of intrathecal chemotherapy as a result of normal cerebrospinal fluid reestablishing. However, it is still controversial whether radiotherapy can improve the overall survival. We conduct this study to further demonstrate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal pemetrexed administration for patients with leptomeningeal metastases from solid tumors by multicenter study. Furthermore, the study of effective treatment modality is of great significance. The safety and antitumor activity of intrathecal pemetrexed combined with involved-field radiation therapy and intrathecal pemetrexed alone were also compared to confirm an optimized therapeutic regimen.
Intrathecal chemotherapy is one of the most important treatment modalities for leptomeningeal metastasis of solid tumors. In the previous study(Intrathecal Pemetrexed for Recurrent Leptomeningeal Metastasis From Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: A Prospective Pilot Clinical Trial. ClinicalTrials.gov identification number: NCT03101579), pemetrexed presented feasibility of intrathecal administration. Pemetrexed at 10 mg dose level on the schedule of 1-2 times per week was recommended as an intrathecal administration agent for patients with refractory leptomeningeal metastases from non-small-cell lung cancer in the previous study. Moreover, the maximum-tolerated dose and recommended dose of intrathecal pemetrexed in the previous study was obtained without vitamin supplementation. Vitamin supplementation has been shown to reduce pemetrexed-induced myelosuppression. In this study, the regimen of intrathecal pemetrexed with folic acid and vitamin B12 supplementation may provide higher safety. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the maximally tolerated dose and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of intrathecal pemetrexed with vitamin supplementation as the first-line intrathecal chemotherapy in patients with leptomeningeal metastases from malignant solid tumors.
The researchers are doing this study to find out whether deferoxamine (DFO) given intrathecally (directly into the CSF) is a safe treatment for people with leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumor cancer. The researchers will test different doses of DFO to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects. When the dose is found, they will test it in future participants to see whether DFO is a safe and effective treatment for people with leptomeningeal metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). They are also doing this study to see how the body absorbs, distributes, gets rid of, and responds to DFO.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of TY-9591 tablets in the treatment of EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain or leptomeningeal metastases.
This is an open-label Phase I clinical study that will administer a single dose of 186RNL via intraventricular catheter for treatment of Leptomeningeal Metastases (LM).
