Filter by:This trial studies caregiver burden, quality of life, and symptom distress of patients and their informal (unpaid) caregivers at different palliative care settings. Cancer caregiving may affect a caregiver's life physically, emotionally, socially, and financially. Studying caregiver burden may help investigators learn about caregivers' opinions on stress of caregiving, and about the factors related to caregiver burdens.
This phase II trial studies how well cobimetinib and atezolizumab work in treating participants with rare tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cobimetinib and atezolizumab may work better in treating participants with advanced or refractory rare tumors.
This randomized phase III trial studies the side effects of and compares apixaban and dalteparin in reducing blood clots in patients with cancer-related venous thromboembolism. Venous thromboembolism is a condition in which a blood clot forms in a vein and then breaks off and moves through the bloodstream. Patients with cancer are at increased risk for venous thromboembolism. Apixaban and dalteparin are drugs used to prevent blood clots from forming or to treat blood clots that have formed. It is not yet known whether apixaban or dalteparin is more effective in reducing blood clots in patients with cancer related venous thromboembolism. ADAM-VTE
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of muscadine grape skin extract (MGE) in treating patients with malignancy (tumor or cancer) that has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery. MGE is a nutritional supplement containing an extract of the skin of muscadine grape that has shown anti-cancer activity in laboratory studies and may be able to fight or kill malignant cells.
This pilot phase I trial studies how well ilorasertib works in treating patients with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A)-deficient solid cancers that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and cannot be removed by surgery. Ilorasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of everolimus when given together with anakinra or denosumab in treating participants with cancers that have spread to other places in the body and have come back or aren't responding to treatment. Everolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Anakinra is designated to block a protein that is involved in tumor development, new blood vessels growing, and the spread of cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as denosumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving everolimus and anakinra or denosumab may work better in treating participants with advanced cancers.
This phase I clinical trial studies vemurafenib with sorafenib tosylate or crizotinib in treating patients with advanced malignancies with BRAF mutations. Sorafenib tosylate and crizotinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib tosylate may also stop the growth of advanced malignancies by blocking blood flow to tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vemurafenib, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving vemurafenib together with sorafenib tosylate or crizotinib may kill more cancer cells.
