Filter by:This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation and expansion study to evaluate safety and tolerability, PK, pharmacodynamic, and early signal of anti-tumor activity of MDNA11 alone or in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is usually performed with general anesthesia and single lung ventilation. However, performing thoracic surgery under awake regional anesthesia has several potential advantages including avoidance of airway trauma and ventilator dependence associated with endotracheal intubation, besides promoting enhanced recovery after surgery and shorter mean hospital stay.
Primary Objective: -To determine the antitumor activity of SAR444245 in combination with other anticancer therapies. Secondary Objectives: - To confirm the dose and to assess the safety profile of SAR444245 when combined with other anticancer therapies. - To assess other indicators of antitumor activity. - To assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of SAR444245 when given in combination with pembrolizumab. - To assess the immunogenicity of SAR444245.
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare pleural cancer, which could be primary or secondary to an asbestos exposure. To enhance our knowledge of this rare disease, an exploration of genetic and tumor mechanism is mandatory. One of the principal difficulty is to harvest sufficient tumour pieces to perform multi-omics analysis. The goal of the SCITH-MESO study is to harvest larges pieces of tumour during a routine surgical procedure of MPM diagnosis by mean of pleural biopsies during VATS surgery. Operating samples will increase a tissue bank collection (CRB).
This is a multi-center, open-label, dose escalation study to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of QBS10072S in patients with advanced or metastatic cancers with high LAT1 expression. The MTD of QBS10072S will be confirmed in patients with relapsed or refractory grade 4 astrocytoma.
Patients with pleural mesothelioma (PM) that cannot be surgically removed will receive standard chemotherapy (cisplatin or carboplatin and pemetrexed) given with durvalumab, a type of immunotherapy, or a treatment chosen by the study doctor, which is either standard chemotherapy or immunotherapy combination (ipilimumab and nivolumab). Durvalumab is an antibody (a type of human protein) that works by blocking a body substance called Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1). Blocking PD-L1 helps the body's immune system attack cancer cells. Research has shown that durvalumab can slow tumor growth and shrink tumors in some people with cancer. Previous studies of combining durvalumab and chemotherapy showed that this combination is active in advanced mesothelioma. The purpose of this study is to see whether adding durvalumab to standard chemotherapy will improve overall survival (OS) in patients with PM.
Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related ill-health and death in the United Kingdom (UK), but with advances in systemic anti-cancer therapies the prognosis for people in later stages is improving. There is growing evidence that electronic systems which enable patients to monitor and report symptoms can help improve symptom control and patient care. This study aims to investigate optimal ways of introducing an electronic symptom reporting system (eRAPID) in lung cancer care at Leeds Cancer Centre. eRAPID was developed by the University of Leeds and its integration with the electronic health records at Leeds Cancer Centre enables staff to view patient symptom reports directly. eRAPID provides advice to patients about self-management of milder symptoms, for serious symptoms patients are encouraged to contact the hospital and an alert is sent to the nurse or doctor by email. The aim of the study is to assess the feasibility and usefulness of an electronic symptom reporting system (eRAPID) for lung cancer patients and healthcare professionals during the treatment of lung cancer and during one year follow up. Two groups of patients will be recruited on the basis of their access to the internet at home (rather than randomisation). It is anticipated that approximately 100 patients will enrol into one of two groups: - Group 1: Patients with online access at home will be asked to report weekly using their own devices. - Group 2: Patients without online access will be asked to report on a tablet computer before their planned clinic appointments. The eRAPID questionnaire is based on existing eRAPID items with the addition of new items specific to lung cancer. These have been developed by the clinical team and patient groups have been consulted over the suitability of the wording used. Analysis of patient reported symptoms, quality of life and clinical information will be descriptive. Disease-related symptoms and health-related quality of life will be compared across groups of patients with a diagnosis of lung cancer. Treatment-related side effects of patients will be compared across the different types of treatment received. To determine the best means of engaging patients in systematic electronic reporting, the recruitment and compliance rate will be compared between the two patient groups. The utility of patient reported information to healthcare staff will be assessed through staff interviews.
This is a two phase study, The first phase (phase 1) will identify potential biomarkers among asbestos exposed individuals with pleural mesothelioma. The second phase (phase 2), is a double blinded case-matched controlled study to determine the predictive capability, sensitivity, and specificity of these biomarkers in detecting early stage pleural mesothelioma. Biomarkers in the form of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in exhaled breath samples from subjects with either pleural mesothelioma or pleural plaques, will be evaluated. A biomarker present in serum will also be concurrently evaluated in the same cohort. The soluble serum biomarker mesothelin related peptides (SMRP), which has been posited as a biomarker for mesothelioma, will be analyzed for its relationship to the breath VOC profile.
This trial will study SGN-CD228A to find out whether it is an effective treatment for different kinds of cancer. It will also look at what side effects (unwanted effects) may occur. The study will have two parts. Part 1 of the study will find out how much SGN-CD228A should be given for treatment and how often. Part 2 of the study will use the dose found in Part 1 and look at how safe and effective the treatment is.
The purpose of this study is to test whether it is safe to give Galinpepimut-S and Nivolumab together in patients with mesothelioma.
