Filter by:The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of applying the SLN mapping technique in combination with FDG-PET/CT imaging in women with high-risk histology endometrial cancer and in patients with cervical cancer tumour size 2-4 cm.
You are being asked to take part in this study because you have advanced melanoma. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if oral azacitidine (CC-486) and pembrolizumab (MK-3475) can help to control melanoma. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Azacitidine is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia. Pembrolizumab is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of melanoma. It is considered investigational to use this drug combination to treat melanoma. The study doctor will explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 71 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
This research study is being carried out to study a new way to possibly treat human cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) without invasion. Persistent infection with specific types of human papillomavirus (HPV, most frequently types 16 and 18) may lead to precancerous lesions(CIN). If untreated, these lesions may progress to cervical cancer within many years. In the infected cells, HPV expresses the oncoproteins E6 and E7, both of which play key roles in maintaining viral infection and promoting carcinogenesis. Previous studies has demonstrated that E7 alone, but not E6, is sufficient to immortalize human keratinocytes in vitro and induce high-grade cervical dysplasia in a transgenic mouse model. These data indicated that E7 may dominate the malignant progress in HPV-infected cells. The agents zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), called ZFN-603 and ZFN-758, which can cleave the HPV16 and HPV18 E7 oncogene specifically. ZFN-mediated disruption of HPV16 and HPV18 E7 DNA directly decreased the expression of E7, induced type-specific apoptosis in HPV16- and HPV18-positive cells, and inhibited cell growth. The purpose of this study is to determine whether ZFN-603 and ZFN-758 are effective in the treatment of HPV16- and HPV18-positive cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
This pilot trial studies a structured exercise program intervention in improving physical activity in older patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing cancer therapy. Patients with hematologic malignancies are at an increased risk of functional dependence and injury. Structured exercise programs, such as the Otago exercise programme (OEP), may improve balance, strength, and prevent fall-related injury in older patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing cancer therapy.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) checkpoint antibody LY3300054 in participants with advanced refractory solid tumors.
The goal of this research study is to learn if a home-based physical activity program is feasible and can help endometrial cancer survivors lose weight.
A multicenter randomized phase II trial of stereotactic body radiotherapy for oligo-progressive metastatic cancers. Eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:2 ratio between receiving their standard of care therapy or stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) to all sites of oligo-progressive lesions.Radiotherapy will be administered as soon as possible following randomization, and subjects will be followed until next disease progression. The primary outcome is progression-free survival (PFS).
Post meno-pausal women with T1 Breast cancers will be randomized to receive either 600 centiGray (cGy) X 5 over five consecutive days (arm 1) versus 800 cGy X 3 fractions given every other day (arm 2). Patients will complete treatment in one week. All patients will be followed a month after the completion of treatment then q6 months for the first year, then yearly for the next 10 years.
The primary objective of this study is: - Determine the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of BAY 1436032 in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1)-R132X-mutant advanced solid tumors. The secondary objectives of this study are: - Evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BAY1436032 in patients with IDH1-R132X-mutant advanced solid tumors. - Evaluate the effect of a standard high-fat, high calorie meal on the PK of BAY1436032. - Assess pharmacodynamic (PD) effects and evidence of clinical efficacy associated with BAY1436032 administration in patients with IDH1-R132X-mutant advanced solid tumors.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well liver surgery and chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone work in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver (liver metastases) that can be removed by surgery and that has spread to the lungs (lung metastases) that cannot be removed by surgery. Liver surgery removes a portion of the liver affected by the tumor. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Liver surgery and chemotherapy may work better than chemotherapy alone in treating patients with colorectal cancer which has spread to the liver and lungs.
