Many individuals who have had cancer experience functional limitations during and after their treatments. The most common side effect from cancer treatment that restricts cancer survivors' completion of daily activities is cancer-related fatigue. Here, we propose to investigate whether an interprofessional approach that targets physiologic, psychologic, and ecological factors will minimize cancer-related fatigue and enhance daily life participation for volunteer cancer survivors living in the community. The interprofessional team will include occupational therapy professor and students from Eastern Kentucky University (EKU), physical therapy and dietitian professors and their students from the University of Dayton, and instructional design instructor from EKU. The approach will include (1) individualized exercise programs-via physical therapy; (2) problem-solving strategies including modifying the environment or activity -via occupational therapy; (3) goal development via physical and occupational therapy; and (4) cancer-related fatigue education via instructional design. We hypothesize that this approach will result in participants experiencing less fatigue, increasing their mobility, improving their quality of life, and being more satisfied with how they perform daily activities.
This phase Ib trial finds out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of BAY1895344 and copanlisib in treating molecularly selected patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). BAY1895344 and copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving BAY1895344 and copanlisib together may help control the progression of the disease in patients with advanced solid tumors.
This phase II trial studies the use of Ion robotic bronchoscope with a mobile computed tomography (CT) scanner to biopsy tumors and inject a fluorescent dye called indocyanine green to mark the tumor during surgery in patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer or cancer that has spread to the lung (lung metastases). Sometimes small tumors or those that are not on the surface of the lung can be challenging to remove without making larger incisions. Injecting the dye, may help doctors see the tumor more easily, which may allow for smaller incisions and by being able to see the tumor, doctors may be better able to decide where to make the incisions in order to get all of the tumor out.
TCRT-ESO-A2 is an autologous cell therapy comprised of a subject's T cells stimulated ex vivo and transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding an affinity enhanced TCR targeting tumor-associated antigen NY-ESO-1. This study will investigate the safety, tolerability, activity, and pharmacokinetics/ pharmacodynamics of TCRT-ESO-A2 infusion. A maximum tolerated dose study of TCRT-ESO-A2 in subjects with advanced malignancies expressing NY-ESO-1 is considered to be an acceptable risk. Once safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic data are available, the activity of TCRT-ESO-A2 in NY-ESO-1-positive tumors may be explored further.
This study collects information about perception of cure among patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). This study aims to determine patients' perception (knowledge) before starting immunotherapy and if differences exist in understanding of treatment to stimulate or restore the ability of the body's immune (defense) system to fight infection and disease (immunotherapy) based on social and economic factors or on race/ethnicity.
The primary aim of this study is to collect clinical data on the performance of MonoPlus® suture applied in routine clinical practice. Diverse parameters are to be used to assess the safety and efficacy of MonoPlus® suture for gastrointestinal anastomosis construction. This study has been designed to implement an action within the framework of a proactive Post Market Clinical Follow up (PMCF) activity.
This study evaluates the efficacy of STI-3031, an anti-PD-L1 antibody, in previously treated patients with selected solid tumors.
This early phase I trial evaluates the effect of thermal therapy on depression with or without sleep disturbance in cancer survivors. Thermal therapy may help improve quality of life, physical capacity, fatigue, and enhance positive mood and sleep quality. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of thermal therapy to improve patient's quality of life by reducing symptoms of depression, sleep disruption, fatigue and anxiety in cancer survivors.
Phase 1 study evaluating feasibility, safety, and immune response to a personalized neoantigen vaccine combined with retifanlimab for MMR-p mCRC and mPDAC patients with measurable disease following first-line FOLFIRINOX/FOLFOXIRI (FFX).
