Filter by:Regorafenib has been proved to improved survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have been failed to all of known standard chemotherapy (The CORRECT study). The phase Ib study of regorafenib plus FOLFOX or FOLFIRI was performed and the dose of regorafenib was fixed; 160 mg/day on days 4 to 10 (7 days per cycle when combined with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI). Regorafenib plus FOLFOX as second-line chemotherapy in mCRC patients who progressed after first-line irinotecan-based chemotherapy has not been studied yet, and because there have been unmet needs for the discovery of valid targeted agent combination for the second-line FOLFOX as above reasons, the investigators planned this study of regorafenib plus FOLFOX as second-line chemotherapy in mCRC patients who progressed after first-line irinotecan-based chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the True Human Monoclonal antibody Xilonix (MABp1) can prolong the life of colorectal carcinoma patients that are refractory to standard therapy.
This is a follow-on study to the VELOUR trial (NCT00561470). The aim of this study is to acquire the archived colorectal cancer and metastasized tissue tumour blocks of patients who have participated in the VELOUR study. These samples will be analysed to find proteins or markers which represent how an individual may be responding to treatment. The identification of these markers may help provide personalised and more effective treatment programs for patients with similar conditions in the future.
This is a personalized anti-cancer vaccine protocol which includes an in-situ (in the body) cancer vaccine step which combines killing a single metastatic tumor lesion by use of cryoablation in order to cause the release of tumor-specific markers to the immune system and then injecting bioengineered allogeneic immune cells (AlloStim) into the lesion as an adjuvant in order to modulate the immune response and educate the immune system to kill other tumor cells where ever they reside in the body.
This is a multicenter, post-authorization observational with prospective follow-up (EPA-SP) study. Will be involved 137 metastatic breast cancer patients or metastatic colorectal cancer. The hypertension will be evaluated as a predictor of efficacy of bevacizumab associated with chemotherapy, in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) (Main endpoint). The duration of the study will be approximately 42 months.
OBJECTIVE: The objective of the trial is to judge on the benefit obtained by an upfront cetuximab treatment delivered as monotherapy or as part of a combination treatment with capecitabine in vulnerable elderly patients selected for V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) wild-type and B-type Raf kinase (BRAF) wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
This pilot study is being mounted to assess whether treatment assignment by ERCC-1 gene expression status suggests better clinical results from historical experience in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). In wild type KRAS mCRC patients treated with either FOLFOX or FOLFIRI in combination with cetuximab the median response rate is approximately 60-65%. Biomarker directed treatment in this study may demonstrate that patients with low ERCC-1 treated with FOLFOX and cetuximab, and those with high ERCC-1 treated with FOLFIRI and cetuximab, will improve response rate to 70-75%. KRAS wild type patients will be treated with 6 cycles of one of the following regimens chosen for optimization based on patient characteristics (primary treatment phase). Patients with ERCC-1 < 1.7 relative gene expression of ERCC-1 over ß-actin (ERCC-1 low) will be assigned to treatment with mFOLFOX6 in combination with Cetuximab. Patients with ERCC-1 gene expression > 1.7 relative gene expression of ERCC-1 over over ß-actin (ERCC-1 high) will be assigned to treatment with FOLFIRI in combination with Cetuximab.
Observational, non randomized study aimed at measuring the effect of chemotherapy in the urinary concentrations of physiological modified nucleosides in 30 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
Observational, non randomized study aimed at measuring the effect of surgical resection of metastasis in the urinary concentrations of physiological modified nucleosides in 45 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
Observational, non randomized study aimed at measuring the circadian rhythms in the urinary concentrations of physiological modified nucleosides in 30 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and in 30 age and sex-matched healthy subjects.
