Filter by:This study is a Phase 1-2 open-label dose escalation study of the immuno-activating monoclonal antibody APX005M administered in combination with nivolumab to adult subjects with non-small cell lung cancer or metastatic melanoma. The Phase 1 portion is intended to establish the maximum tolerated dose and the recommended phase 2 dose of APX005M when administered in combination with nivolumab. The Phase 2 portion of the study will evaluate safety and efficacy of the combination.
Analysis of somatic mutations in tumors is currently indicated for daily practice in all metastatic melanoma. Actually, this research is limited to the mutation of three biomarkers validated by the l'Institut National du CAncer (INCA): BRAF, NRAS and CKIT. Moreover, in some cases it requires invasive biopsies. In this context, molecular characterization of a tumor material flowing (circulating tumor DNA and / or circulating tumor cells) could afford to benefit patients in the best conditions of current targeted therapies and future.
This pilot trial studies the side effects of giving pembrolizumab together with stereotactic radiosurgery to treat patients with melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving pembrolizumab together with stereotactic radiosurgery may be a better treatment for patients with melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of an extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK1/2) inhibitor LY3214996 administered alone or in combination with other agents in participants with advanced cancer.
Up to 35 adult patients with metastatic melanoma will be enrolled in this study with a target enrollment of 30 evaluable subjects who complete the baseline and an approximately 3 week FDG PET/CT scans, they may also complete an FDG PET/CT after 10 weeks of pembrolizumab therapy. Subjects may also be a part of the Penn Melanoma Tissue Collection Program and then will be asked to have one additional tumor biopsy and one additional blood draw for the purposes of this imaging study. Subjects who are eligible for this imaging protocol will undergo a baseline FDG PET/CT scan as part of their clinical restaging prior to starting new therapy. A research FDG PET/CT will take place approximately 3 weeks post-therapy and a 3rd FDG PET/CT scan will be done at more than 10 weeks after starting pembrolizumab, this scan may be done as a clinical scan for evaluation of response or restaging after therapy, however, if it is not ordered as a clinical scan it will be done as a research scan. Changes in FDG uptake will be correlated with blood and tissue results from the patient's medical records and from the data collected as part of the Penn Melanoma Tissue Collection Program and with long term outcomes including progression free and overall survival.
This is a single arm, multicenter, open label, and non-randomized clinical study on adult participants with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. The study will be conducted in two phases. Pre-screening phase will assess the BRAF V600 mutation in a new mutation analysis triggered by a mutant plasma cfDNA test result. Treatment phase will assess the clinical outcome for the participants treated with vemurafenib plus cobimetinib. The length of the study will be approximately 38 months.
Serial spirometries and measurements of CO-diffusion capacity (DLCO) in patients with MM before and during treatment with ipilimumab are performed. A reduction from baseline of forced vital capacity (FVC) of ≥10%, or ≥15% of DLCO was defined clinically meaningful, thus indicative for pulmonary toxicity.
This phase II clinical trial studies how well thermal ablation and spine stereotactic radiosurgery work in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the spine (spine metastases) and is at risk for compressing the spinal cord. Thermal ablation uses a laser to heat tumor tissue and helps to shrink the tumor by destroying tumor cells. Stereotactic radiosurgery delivers a large dose of radiation in a short time precisely to the tumor, sparing healthy surrounding tissue. Combining thermal ablation with stereotactic radiosurgery may be a better way to control cancer that has spread to the spine and is at risk for compressing the spinal cord.
Assess the safety and tumor response of utilizing an autologous tumor lysate, particle-loaded, dendritic cell (TLPLDC) vaccine given in combination with standard of care (SoC) checkpoint inhibitors (CPI) in patients with stage IV melanoma with measurable disease.
The goal of the Phase 1 study was to find the recommended Phase 2 dose of the study drug IMO-2125 (tilsotolimod) that can be given in combination with ipilimumab (ipi) or pembrolizumab (pembro) to participants with metastatic melanoma and assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity when administered in combination with ipilimumab or pembrolizumab.
