Filter by:Complete macroscopic surgical resection (CMR) requires extensive surgery and combined with chemotherapy confers best chance of survival in advanced ovarian cancer. During cytoreductive surgery 11% of women require a temporary diverting intestinal stoma. Unexpectedly, our results from a unique fully accounted for population demonstrate that survival was not improved when increasing the proportion of women in whom CMR was achieved and in a yet unidentified subgroup of women extensive surgery was detrimental. In these women surgical treatment should be omitted in favor of chemotherapy only. Accordingly, there is an imperative need to improve patient selection to surgical treatment. In Sweden, we treat an unselected population of women in a public healthcare system, where 30% of women with are >75 years. Despite these circumstances guidelines on patient-selection are lacking. Age is an imprecise variable to base clinical decisions on but must be considered with an aging population. The dynamics between physiological changes of aging, comorbidity and medical condition are included in the concept of frailty, that has gained little attention in oncology, despite their potential to stratify risk and mortality. The FOLERO study is a prospective adequately powered national cohort study with aim to determine if frailty instruments may be used to select patient to surgical treatment. In addition, we test the feasibility of early stoma reversal after index cytoreductive surgery in a small phase I trial and follow our patients Health Related Quality of Life after state of the art surgical treatment.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BL-M07D1 in patients with HER2 expressing advanced tumors.
Participants will be scheduled for primary cytoreductive surgery as part of their standard care. Before surgery, participants will be assigned by chance to a study group. Depending on which group they are in, they will receive either acute normovolemic hemodilution/ANH during surgery or standard surgical management during surgery. The researchers think acute normovolemic hemodilution/ANH may decrease the need for allogenic blood transfusion/ABT in people having primary cytoreductive surgery.
This study aims to evaluate the safety, and early signals of anti-tumor activity of PF-07820435 when administered alone (Part 1A) or in combination with sasanlimab (Part 1B; Part 2) in patients with selected advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Part 1 will be dose-finding and Part 2 of the study will further evaluate PF-07820435 at the recommended dose for combination expansion in patients with selected advanced solid tumors.
Within the context of pleural carcinosis, the present study is a dose escalation with determination of the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) of pressurized cisplatin administration associated to moderate hyperthermia in the pleura. This will be followed by an expansion phase at the recommended dose (RD).
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether the investigational drug XmAb541 is safe and well tolerated, and to determine an optimal and safe dose(s) for further study. The study will also evaluate effect of XmAb541 on tumor outcomes.
A detailed understanding of molecular mechanism of cancer genesis is fundamental to develop innovative and personalized therapies. The new frontier in biomedical research is represented by organoids, a three-dimensional cell culture system obtained from a tissue fragment that accurately reproduces the essential properties of the original tissue in vitro, which could provide a valuable model for explanation of ovarian cancers pathogenesis and will allow to predict the response to a specific therapy. With this research project, we expect to generate ovarian cancer organoids to characterize in vitro interactions and molecular pathway among tumor cells, immune cells, and resident microbiota (intratumoral bacteria and/or microbial-derived molecules).
The goal of the Dose Escalation phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or preliminary recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of NKT3447 in adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The goal of the Expansion phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and the preliminary antitumor activity of NKT3447 in adult subjects with cyclin E1 (CCNE1) amplified ovarian cancer at the RDEs selected in Dose Escalation and to determine the preliminary recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).
This study is a first-in-human (FIH), Phase 1a/1b study of BG-68501, a cyclin-dependent kinase-2 inhibitor (CDK2i), to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of BG-68501 in participants with advanced, nonresectable, or metastatic solid tumors. The study will also identify a recommended dose for expansion (RDFE) in subsequent disease directed studies. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1 (dose escalation and safety expansion) and Part 2 (dose expansion).
Background: Many cancer cells produce substances called antigens that are unique to each cancer. These antigens stimulate the body s immune responses. One approach to treating these cancers is to take disease-fighting white blood cells from a person, change those cells so they will target the specific proteins (called antigens) from the cancer cells, and return them to that person s blood. The use of the white blood cells in this manner is one form of gene therapy. A vaccine may help these modified white cells work better. Objective: To test a cancer treatment that uses a person s own modified white blood cells along with a vaccine that targets a specific protein. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 to 72 years with certain solid tumors that have spread after treatment. Design: Participants will undergo leukapheresis: Blood is removed from the body through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. The blood passes through a machine that separates out the white blood cells. The remaining blood is returned to the body through a second needle. Participants will stay in the hospital for 3 or 4 weeks. They will take chemotherapy drugs for 1 week to prepare for the treatment. Then their modified white cells will be infused through a needle in the arm. They will take other drugs to prevent infections after the infusion. The vaccine is injected into a muscle; participants will receive their first dose of the vaccine on the same day as their cell infusion. Participants will have follow-up visits 4, 8, and 12 weeks after the cell infusions. They will receive 2 or 3 additional doses of the boost vaccine during these visits. Follow-up will continue for 5 years, but participants will need to stay in touch with the gene therapy team for 15 years. ...
