Filter by:Immunotherapy has recently become a main-stream treatment option in cancer care, with improved clinical outcomes in many malignancies, especially that of lung cancer. The long-term benefits of this treatment however are limited. There is therefore a critical need to distinguish predictive biomarkers of response from those of resistance, and to develop synergistic strategies for improved therapeutic response. Strong emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiome has the ability to influence response to immunotherapy. Unlike tumor genomics, the gut microbiome is modifiable, and thus its modulation to enhance response to immunotherapy is an attractive therapeutic strategy. Working hypothesis: Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) treatment in conjunction with standard (chemo-)immunotherapy as a first-line treatment for metastatic lung cancer enhances disease control rate. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) in altering response to immunotherapy in patients with metastatic lung cancer. The overall goal is to determine microbiome compositional and gene-content changes in patients who respond more efficiently to immunotherapy subsequent to FMT. This understanding may lead to future microbiome-based treatments in combination with immunotherapy to significantly increase lung cancer treatment efficacy. In this prospective clinical and molecular study, we will perform an in-depth analysis of the potential role of FMT in the context of immunotherapy.
BDTX-1535-101 is an open-label, Phase 1 dose escalation and Phase 2 multiple cohort study designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), optimal dosage, central nervous system (CNS) activity, and antitumor activity of BDTX-1535. The study population comprises adults with either advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with non-classical or acquired epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) resistance (EGFR C797S) mutations with or without CNS disease (in Phase 1 and Phase 2), or glioblastoma (GBM) expressing EGFR alterations (Phase 1 only). All patients will self-administer BDTX-1535 monotherapy by mouth in 21-day cycles. Phase 1 enrollment is now complete. Phase 2 is currently enrolling.
CHANCES-IPC 2021-008 is First In Human, Phase I, multicenter, European study evaluating an anti-CD73, IPH5301 in advanced and/or metastatic cancer. The trial will be conducted in two parts, Part I- Dose escalation: This part aims to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of IPH5301 agent in monotherapy and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for future trials, followed by a safety expansion study part cohort. Part II- Expansion cohort: A total of 12 HER2+ cancer patients, respectively 6 breast cancer patients and 6 gastric cancer patients, is planned to be enrolled into the next expansion cohort to select a recommended dose of IPH5301 to be administered in combination with chemotherapy and trastuzumab for evaluation in future trials with selected advanced solid tumors.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DS-1062a in participants with metastatic, unresectable NSCLC having progressed on one, but not more than three previous standard therapies. Moreover, the immune effects, the predictors of resistance and response to treatment, the effect of the chemotherapy on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) replication will be assessed and will help identify the subgroups that will mostly benefit from the treatment. The pharmacokinetics of the product and the anti-drug antibody (ADA) will be also evaluated. A total of 100 participants are planned to be included in the study. Participants will receive, every three weeks, a dose of DS-1062a equivalent to 6 mg/kg of body weight until progression or until unacceptable toxicity. Tumor evaluation will be performed every six weeks by the mean of a computed tomography for the thorax, abdomen and pelvis (TAP CT-scan) or a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain and/or bone CT scans will be also performed throughout the study for participants with brain and/or bone metastasis. The safety of the product will be assessed at each cycle, through complete clinical exams, biological tests, electrocardiograms (ECGs), cardiac echographies (ECHOs) and through the collection of ongoing toxicities or adverse events.
DCE-CT of thoracic tumors as an early biomarker for treatment monitoring in comparison with morphologic criteria. 1. Rationale of the clinical investigation For the evaluation of response to anti-tumoral therapy in thoracic tumors, merely morphologic information is often not sufficient for early response evaluation as dimensions of the oncologic lesions are not changing during the first weeks of treatment. To be able to measure functional changes, dynamic contrast-enhanced CT (DCE-CT) seems promising as a biomarker for early therapy monitoring. Having an early biomarker for treatment monitoring will allow to increase patients' prognosis if a non-responder is earlier detected, will optimize the use of expensive treatments, is expected to shorten hospitalization and shorten absence at work, and to decrease side-effects of (adjuvant) medication. 2. Objective of the study 2.1.Primary objectives The primary objective is to investigate the potential of functional imaging (i.e. DCE-CT), as analyzed by the Hyperfusion analytic software, as an early biomarker for the evaluation of therapy response in primary thoracic malignancy. 2.2.Secondary objectives There are two secondary objectives: 1. To define internal system parameters and perfusion parameter thresholds that maximize the accuracy of the outcomes and to define the correct category (PD, SD, PR, CR); and 2. To compare the predicted categorization to the assessed RECIST1.1 categorization. 3. Endpoints 3.1.Primary Endpoint The primary endpoint is to directly compare the biomarker of the HF analysis software at week 3 (+- 1 week) and week 8 (+- 3 weeks) with the eventually reported Progression-Free Survival (PFS) intervals and Overall Survival (OS) in this study. PFS intervals are determined by the clinician and are based on RECIST1.1 and additional clinical and biochemical progression markers. The focus will be on evaluating the accuracy of the prediction as well as how early the prediction was correct. 3.2.Secondary Endpoints There are two secondary endpoints corresponding to the two secondary objectives. 1. The internal parameters for the HF biomarker, e.g. magnitude of the Ktrans decrease, and the change in volume of unhealthy tissue, need to be determined to define the classification (PD, SD, PR and CR) by the HF analysis software. These parameters are optimized to optimally predict the classification according to PFS and OS. This will be done by splitting the data into a train and test set to ensure generalization. 2. The classification of the HF analysis software will be compared to the purely morphological classification by RECIST1.1 to identify correlation. Furthermore, some cases will be investigated where the HF analysis performs noticeably better or worse than RECIST1.1 in predicting PFS and OS. Finally, the difference in time to the first correct prediction is compared between HF and RECIST1.1. 4.Study Design This prospective study is part of the clinical β-phase. We aim to test pre-release versions of the Hyperfusion.ai software under real-world working conditions in a hospital (clinical) setting. It is important to note, though, that the results of the software analysis will not be used by interpreting physicians to alter clinical judgement during the course of the clinical trial. A prospective study including 100 inoperable patients in UZ Gent suffering from primary thoracic malignancy (≥15mm diameter) will be conducted. For this study, in total 3 CT scan examinations of the thorax will be performed (a venous CT examination of the thorax in combination with a DCE-CT scan of the tumoral region). All patients will be recruited from the pulmonology department. Oncologic patients are clinically referred with certain intervals for a clinically indicated CT scan (being part of standard care). In the study, two clinical CT examinations that are performed standard of care (baseline CT examination and CT examination at week 8 (+- 3 weeks) after start of systemic therapy) will be executed by also adding a DCE-image of the lung adenocarcinoma to this examination. This DCE-image is performed during the waiting time before the venous/morphologic phase. Consequently, from a clinical point-of-view, the time to scan remains exactly the same. With regard to the contrast agent, an identical amount is injected as is the case in standard of care, but the contrast bolus is split in two parts - see also addendum with DCE protocol. In this study there is one additional CT-examination (DCE-scan of the thoracic malignancy in combination with venous CT scan of the thorax) at week 3 (± 1 week).
Bone metastases occur frequently during the evolution of solid tumors, either isolated or associated with visceral metastases. The incidence varies between 20 and 85% depending on the primary cancer. Breast, prostate, and lung cancers are responsible for 70% of bone metastases. Cancer with bone metastases compared to other metastatic sites is considered as associated with a better prognosis, particularly for breast and prostate cancer. Bone metastases may be present at diagnosis (synchronous metastasis) or appear at a later time (metachronous metastasis). The concept of "oligometastases" was proposed in patients with about 3 up to 5 metastases (without restriction on the primary site) and associated with an intermediate prognosis. It was hypothesized that local treatment with curative intent, aiming at the few metastatic sites, would yield long-term survival probabilities, along with systemic therapies. Long-term survivors have been reported after curative-intent treatment of metastasis in sarcoma and colorectal cancers with liver or lung metastasis. We chose to focus on bone metastasis because of their high incidence, their impact on the patient's quality of life and autonomy, and their accessibility to potentially curative radiotherapy. The systemic treatment of metastatic cancer includes hormonal therapy (breast and prostate cancer), biologically-targeted drugs and chemotherapy (all cancers). Stereotactic radiotherapy is a highly accurate technique was initially developed for performing the radiosurgery of brain tumors in patients for whom it was deemed be too difficult to proceed to classical excision surgery. In this process, a high total dose of radiation is delivered in a single fraction to a well-defined intra-cranial target. The concept of radiotherapy in stereotactic conditions was extended to one or several fractions delivered to small volumes primary tumors/ metastases in extra-cranial sites (Stereotactic Body RadioTherapy [SBRT]). At present, high control rates have been achieved for lung metastases. Similarly, very high local control rates have been reported in bone metastases after stereotactic radiotherapy. In this protocol, our purpose is to demonstrate, via a randomized phase III trial, that high doses of radiotherapy, delivered in stereotactic conditions to the bone metastases (between 1 and 5 metastases) in solid tumor patients is able to improve the survival without progression.
