In the current project we aim to study the oncological process of pancreatic cancer, from a perspective of the CSC-theory and in particular through the 'side population' (SP)-approach. The SP seems to be enriched for CSC and doesn't a priori exclude any CSC-subpopulation. After isolation from pancreatic cancer resection specimens, SP cells will be characterized by gene-expression profiling based on microarray analysis. We'll identify markers and pathways (with emphasis for stem cell and cancer -related ones) that are differentially expressed in SP versus the rest of tumour cells (the 'main population' or MP). In order to assess the prognostic relevance of the SP, we'll study these genes using the high-throughput Nanostring technology in about 200 snap-frozen PDAC resection specimens of patients from our prospective database. Finally, two monoclonal antibodies (mAB) will be tested as novel therapeutic agents in vivo (mouse model), wherein the choice of mAB will be based on prognostically relevant molecular targets and pathways obtained from the Nanostring results.
This clinical study evaluates the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of dalotuzumab (MK-0646) in participants with relapsed or refractory locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors using once weekly and once every other week dose infusion regimens. The primary study hypothesis is that administration of dalotuzumab as a once weekly and an every other week infusion will be generally safe and well tolerated
A clinical study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ridaforolimus (MK-8669) in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This study is being performed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TRC102 in combination with Alimta. In addition to safety, this study will also evaluate pharmacokinetics and tumor response.
The study was designed to allow for the continuation of treatment with Sorafenib as a single agent to those patients who participated in a previous Sorafenib study that had reached its designated end-date and who were, in the opinion of the Investigator and the Sponsor, still benefiting from treatment.
Phase I of the study (motion and quality assurance [QA] study) is being used to determine intrafraction target motion and define quality assurance procedures for single fraction spinal radiosurgery. The Phase II portion of the study is being used to estimate the palliative response (pain or relief of neurologic symptoms) and local control for single fraction radiosurgery delivered with TomoTherapy and to assess the acute and late toxicity of spinal radiosurgery.
This was a phase 1/2, open-label, dose-escalation study of arginine deiminase linked via succinimidyl succinate to polyethylene glycol of 20,000 molecular weight (ADI-PEG 20) in subjects with advanced melanoma. ADI-PEG 20 was administered intramuscularly (IM) at escalating doses weekly for 9 weeks (cycle 1) or 8 weeks (subsequent cycles). The primary objectives were to the establish the safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy of ADI-PEG 20. Secondary objectives included evaluation of the metabolic activity by [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET), pharmacodynamics, correlation of immunogenicity with clinical response, and correlation of argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS) tumor expression with clinical response.
The purposes of this phase I portion are; 1) to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK2461 and 2) to determine the recommended phase 2 dose or doses of MK2461. The purpose of the phase II portion is to evaluate the anti-tumor efficacy of MK2461.
This is a Phase Ib study as a continuation of the original Phase I protocol. The purpose of this Phase Ib study is to evaluate the safety of a single course of SGT-53 in combination with docetaxel and determine the recommended Phase II doses of SGT-53 and docetaxel in combination for evaluation in subsequent clinical studies for the treatment of solid tumors.
