NCT ID: NCT06448611 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Identification and Characterization of Circulating Tumor Cells Before and After Treatment (Surgery and Radiotherapy) in a Cohort of Patients Treated for Resectable Stage I-III Merkel Cell Carcinoma

MERCCALIBI
Start date: July 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the presence of circulating tumoral cells in patients over 18 with a stage I-III resectable Merkel cell carcinoma after the initial therapeutic sequence of surgery and radiotherapy. The main question it aims to answer is : Can any residual disease be found in the form of circulating tumoral cells in blood samples of patients treated with surgery and radiotherapy for a resectable, stage I to III Merkel cell carcinoma ? When possible, the circulating tumoral cells count will be compared to the one realized in a blood sample of the same patient before surgery and radiotherapy. Participants will : - Have a blood sample taken before surgery (if the patient is addressed to our center early enough), - Have a blood sample taken immediately after surgery and radiotherapy (for all). - Two additional blood samples will be taken during the 6-months and 12-months visit to set up a biobank.

NCT ID: NCT06223659 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

EMLA Topical Cream for Treatment of Pain in Patients Receiving Intra-Dermal Technetium 99 Injections for Lymphoscintigraphy for Skin Cancers

Start date: December 19, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial tests how well EMLA topical cream works in treating pain in patients with skin cancers receiving Technetium 99 injections for a lymphoscintigraphy mapping procedure. A lymphoscintigraphy mapping procedure is used to find the main or lead lymph node (tissue that fight infection) so it can be removed and checked for tumor cells. Using lymphoscintigraphy to highlight and then surgically remove lymph nodes is standard way to treat skin cancer for many patients. The Technetium 99 injections used for lymphoscintigraphy can be briefly painful due to the sensitivity of the nerve endings in the skin. The EMLA topical cream, which contains a numbing medicine to block pain from nerve endings, has been studied in breast cancer patients with a difference in pain reported, but this is the first time it has been studied in patients undergoing lymphoscintigraphy for skin cancer. This study may help researchers learn whether the use of EMLA cream may improve the associated pain at the time of the lymphoscintigraphy procedure.

NCT ID: NCT06151236 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Neoadjuvant Nivolumab and Relatlimab in Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Start date: March 11, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test neoadjuvant dual immunotherapy in Merkel cell carcinoma with the aim to improve recurrence-free survival

NCT ID: NCT06086288 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Study of PembrolizumAb combiNeD With Cisplatin or carbOplatin and Etoposide in Treatment naïve Advanced meRkel Cell cArcinoma (MCC)

PANDORA
Start date: November 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is an open label, multicenter, phase II study evaluating the activity and safety of pembrolizumab combined with cisplatin/carboplatin and etoposide as first line treatment in patients with advanced MCC.

NCT ID: NCT06056895 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Triple Immune Checkpoint Inhibition for Advanced or Metastatic PD-(L)1 Refractory Merkel Cell Carcinoma

TRICK-MCC
Start date: November 8, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial tests how well a combination of three immunotherapy drugs work for patients with Merkel cell carcinoma that has spread to lymph nodes and/or distant parts of the body and cannot be treated with surgery (advanced or metastatic MCC) and grew despite prior PD-(L)1 therapy. The three drugs INCMGA00012 (retifanlimab, anti-PD-1), INCAGN02385 (tuparstobart, anti-LAG-3), and INCAGN02390 (verzistobart, anti-TIM-3) are monoclonal antibodies given periodically via IV to reactivate the body's immune system to attack the cancer. This combination may stop tumor growth if tumors have grown despite anti-PD-(L)1 therapy alone.

NCT ID: NCT06047379 Recruiting - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of NEO212 in Patients With Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype or Brain Metastasis

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT06039033 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Exploring Merkel Cell Carcinoma Clinical Trial Engagement Patterns

Start date: October 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Taking part in medical research usually favors a particular demographic group. But there is limited research available to explain what trial attributes affect the completion of these specific demographic groups. This study will admit a wide range of data on the clinical trial experience of Merkel cell carcinoma patients to determine which factors prevail in limiting a patient's ability to join or finish a trial. It will also try to analyze data from the perspective of different demographic groups to check for recurring trends which might yield insights for the sake of future Merkel cell carcinoma patients.

NCT ID: NCT06021626 Recruiting - Sarcoma Clinical Trials

A Study of CRD3874-SI in People With Solid Tumors

Start date: August 25, 2023
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study will test the safety of a study drug called CRD3874-SI. The researchers will test different doses of CRD3874-SI to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants. After the researchers find the highest safe dose of CRD3874-SI, they will test that dose in new groups of participants to help them learn more about the side effects of the study drug and find out whether CRD3874-SI is an effective treatment for for patients with advanced or metastatic malignant solid tumors including sarcoma and Merkel Cell Carcinoma.

NCT ID: NCT06008977 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Exercise to Boost Response to Checkpoint Blockade Immunotherapy

EX-BOOST
Start date: June 3, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this pilot study will be to provide i) information on feasibility implementing an exercise intervention trial among patients with cutaneous cancers, including melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma (cuSCC), and Merkel cell carcinoma, scheduled to receive checkpoint blockade immunotherapy, and ii) preliminary data on the impact of a day-of-therapy exercise intervention.
