Filter by:This study will evaluate feasibility and acceptability of providing the Dignity Therapy/Life Plan intervention to pancreatic or advanced lung cancer patients presenting for treatment in the outpatient medical oncology setting. Investigators hypothesize that providing dignity therapy to this population will be feasible.
A Global Study to Assess the Effects of MEDI4736 following concurrent chemoradiation in Patients with Stage III Unresectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
This is an epidemiological,multicenter study of genomic and expression profiles of patients with newly diagnosed NSCLC.Two hundred and fifty NSCLC patients who fulfill the criteria are to be recruited by investigational sites.Approximately 100 of them will be from retrospectively collected samples with detailed clinical and 2-year follow-up information after surgeries.The demographics,cancer/adjacent normal tissue and matched blood sample will be collected after the patient had provided informed consent.All tissue samples will be analyzed for somatic mutations by exome deep sequencing,mRNA expression profiling by RNA sequencing and chromosome copy number variation by SNP array at the designated laboratories.
There are preliminary data suggesting that patients suffering from non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, treated with metformin, have improved local tumor control. A reduction in the tumor's hypoxia may be responsible for this phenomenon. Therefore, the aim of this study is to test the hypothesis in three cohorts of patients suffering from advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer and all undergoing concurrent radiochemotherapy: 1. Patients with diabetes mellitus treated with metformin only; 2. Patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not treated with metformin; 3. The remaining patients serving as controls. Furthermore, tumor and treatment-related parameters will be correlated with overall survival and morbidity.
A Phase II, Open Label, Single-arm Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of AZD9291 in Patients with Locally Advanced/Metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer whose Disease has Progressed with Previous Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Therapy and whose Tumours are Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutation and T790M Mutation Positive
The purpose of this trial is to study the activity of MK-3475 in untreated brain metastases from melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to find a recommended schedule and dose range for Emibetuzumab when given with ramucirumab that may be safely given to participants with cancer. In Part A of this study, escalating doses of Emibetuzumab will be given in combination with a fixed dose of ramucirumab to evaluate the safety of the combination. After a recommended schedule and dose range of Emibetuzumab and ramucirumab has been established, Part B of the study will confirm safety and to see how well certain tumors respond to the combination of study drugs. The average amount of time on study is expected to be about 6 months.
This pilot study will aim to determine whether circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be captured using the novel cMET based ferrofluid. The primary objective of this pilot study will be to describe the numbers of c-MET expressing cells that can be detected by the c-MET CTC capture technique. These data will be separated by disease site. The investigator will also describe the detection rates of both the c-MET CTC capture and the EpCAM CTC capture techniques in each patient, also separated by disease site.
Many tumor cells, in contrast to normal cells, have been shown to require the amino acid glutamine to produce energy for growth and survival. To exploit the dependence of tumors on glutamine, CB-839, a potent and selective inhibitor of the first enzyme in glutamine utilization, glutaminase, will be tested in this Phase 1 study in patients with solid tumors. This study is an open-label Phase 1 evaluation of CB-839 in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study will be conducted in 2 parts. Part 1 is a dose escalation study enrolling patients with locally-advanced, metastatic and/or refractory solid tumors to receive CB-839 capsules orally twice or three times daily. In Part 2, patients with each of the following diseases will be enrolled: A) Triple-Negative Breast Cancer, B) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (adenocarcinoma), C) Renal Cell Cancer, D) Mesothelioma, E) Fumarate hydratase (FH)-deficient tumors, F) Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH)-deficient gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), G) SDH-deficient non-GIST tumors, H) tumors harboring mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) or IDH2, and I) cMyc mutation tumors. As an extension of Parts 1 & 2, patients will be treated with CB-839 in combination with standard chemotherapy. Combination groups include: Pac-CB, CBE, CB-Erl, CBD, and CB-Cabo. Pac-CB: patients with locally-advanced or metastatic TNBC will be treated with paclitaxel and CB-839. CBE: patients with advanced clear cell RCC or papillary RCC will be treated with everolimus in combination with CB-839. CB-Erl: patients with advanced NSCLC lacking the T790M EGFR mutation will be treated with erlotinib and CB-839. CBD: patients with NSCLC harboring KRAS mutation will be treated with docetaxel and CB-839. CB-Cabo: patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of locally-advanced, inoperable or metastatic RCC treated with cabozantinib in combination with CB-839. All patients will be assessed for safety, pharmacokinetics (plasma concentration of drug), pharmacodynamics (inhibition of glutaminase), biomarkers (biochemical markers that may predict responsiveness in later studies), and tumor response.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether continuing erlotinib beyond disease progression in combination with chemotherapy is beneficial for NSCLC patients who have EGFR mutant disease or who have responded to EGFR TKI.
