Filter by:The aim of this research project is to test the local response and the acute toxicity (which can be observed within 90 days).
This is a multi-center, open-label, phase Ib study evaluating safety and efficacy of the humanized anti-PD-1 antibody JS001, as a monotherapy in patients with neuroendocrine tumors who have failed in previous systemic treatment. 40 patients are enrolled and injected with the humanized anti-PD-1 antibody 3mg/mg every 2 weeks until disease progresses or unacceptable toxicity.
The laser tissue welding device is intended for use in patients requiring sealing of the pancreas after partial pancreatectomy, and including those patients who are fully heparinized or have hemodilutional coagulation failure. The hypothesis is that the laser tissue welding device is safe and effective in sealing the pancreas, thereby decreasing the blood loss (operative and post-operative), and pancreatic juice leakage for patients when the Laser Tissue Welding device is used after pancreatic resection.
This study aims to investigate if the proportion of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients with normal vitamin values can be increased, with vitamin suppletion and a personalized diet, Effects of the intervention will be evaluated by quantitative analysis of blood and urine and questionnaires. The measurements, will be performed at baseline (t=0), after 4 weeks (t=4) and after 18 weeks at end of study (t=18). Furthermore at t=18 a semi-qualitative interview will be performed.
The primary goal of the analysis is to estimate the diagnostic accuracy of Gallium 68 (68Ga) -DOTATOC PET/CT for detecting neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) compared to conventional imaging techniques such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computerized Tomography (CT). Participants with histologically and/or clinically confirmed and/or suspected NET will be enrolled.
The purpose of this study is to understand how people with neuroendocrine tumors respond to treatment with lanreotide after having received treatment with octreotide.
Well-differentiated gastroenteropancreatic and lung neuroendocrine tumors are generally malignancies with a prolonged natural history. However, clinical behavior is heterogeneous and when tumor progression is observed, treatment options are limited. The most used therapy for neuroendocrine tumors management are somatostatin analogs. However, even the use in lung carcinoids is quite usual, no antitumoral activity has been demonstrated. Tremelimumab and Durvalumab combination could be more efficient drugs to improve immune system activation and could obtain a significantly higher clinical benefit in these patients. Tremelimumab and Durvalumab would be the first immune combination agents showing efficacy in neuroendocrine neoplasms of different origins.
GI tract including pancreas is the one of most common primary sites of neuroendocrine tumors. Current grading of neuroendocrine tumors are based on the 2010 WHO classification. This classifies grade 3 tumors as the neuroendocrine tumor with mitosis > 20 per 10 high power field or Ki-67 labeling index > 20%. Etoposide-based chemotherapy, mostly as the combination with cisplatin, has been the mainstay of the treatment for patients with grade 3 neuroendocrine tumors. However, a recent large retrospective analysis has suggested this regimen may not be effective in relatively low Ki-67 labeling index. Therefore, the investigators designed a clinical trial testing temozolomide-capecitabine combination, which has been mostly investigated in well differentiated (ie., grade 1 or 2) neuroendocrine tumors, in patients with grade 3 and low Ki-67 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
The purpose of this study is to test any good and bad effects of the combination of LEE011 with everolimus on the participant and the cancer.
This study is for patients with non-resectable, recurrent, or metastatic well or moderately differentiated gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). The study will be conducted in two stages: 1) Safety Run-In and 2) Expanded Cohort. 1. Safety run-in: The first stage will include a safety run-in of 6 patients treated with pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenous (IV) every 3 weeks and lanreotide depot 90mg subcutaneous (SQ) every 3 weeks. Up to 6 patients at the Duke Cancer Institute will be accrued at the starting dose level. If one or less subject meets treatment-related discontinuation criteria (as specified in the protocol) during Cycle 1, then the study will proceed to the second stage, Expanded Cohort. 2. Expanded Cohort: Patients will be treated with pembrolizumab 200mg IV every 3 weeks and lanreotide depot 90mg SQ every 3 weeks as determined by the Safety Run-In Cohort.
