Filter by:This phase Ib trial determines if samples from a patient's cancer can be tested to find combinations of drugs that provide clinical benefit for the kind of cancer the patient has. This study is also being done to understand why cancer drugs can stop working and how different cancers in different people respond to different types of therapy.
This is a phase II, open-Label clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TTAC-0001 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma who was progressed on bevacizumab including therapy.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of birinapant when given together with intensity modulated re-irradiation therapy (IMRRT) in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back at or near the same place as the original (primary) tumor (locally recurrent). Birinapant may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking IAP, a protein needed for tumor cell survival. IMRRT uses thin beams of radiation of different intensities that are aimed at the tumor from many angles. This type of re-irradiation therapy reduces the damage to healthy tissue near the tumor. Giving birinapant with IMRRT may lower the chance of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma growing or spreading.
This is a phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized active-controlled, parallel group to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of intravenous balixafortide given with eribulin versus eribulin alone in the treatment of HER2 negative, Locally Recurrent or Metastatic Breast Cancer.
This is an open-label, single-arm, pilot study on the effects of topical imiquimod treatment in preventing keloid recurrence after surgical excision. Keloids are abnormal scars that form in certain genetically predisposed individuals following trauma to the skin. They can be physically disabling and cause social impairment. Many therapies have been proposed and trialed for the permanent removal of keloids, but they all have limited efficacy. Topical imiquimod therapy has been reported to decrease keloid recurrence following keloidectomy in human patients. Given all previous reports of adjuvant imiquimod therapy to keloidectomy initiated imiquimod therapy after keloidectomy, the investigators would like to test the efficacy of topical imiquimod pre-treatment in preventing keloid recurrence after surgical excision. Therefore, the investigators are initiating an open-label pilot study of 10 patients age 18 or greater with keloids on the trunk and extremities excluding the groin and hands and feet who present to the dermatology clinic for standard of care keloid excision. Key exclusion criteria include vulnerable populations, immunocompromised state, hypersensitivity to study drug components, and keloids outside of specified areas. The main study intervention will be 6 weeks of treatment with topical 5% imiquimod cream, starting 1 week prior to surgical excision.
This phase I trial studies best dose and side effects of CBL0137 in treating patients with extremity melanoma or sarcoma that has spread to other places in the body. Drugs, such as CBL0137, may work by binding to tumor cell deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) to stop the cell from growing further.
This research is being done to test if it is safe to give nivolumab with targeted immunotherapy drugs for recurrent glioblastoma (GBM), a type of brain tumor. The study doctors believe that giving immunotherapy drugs that match the biomarkers in a tumor will help the immune system fight the tumor. Tumor tissue collected during surgery will be tested for certain biomarkers to determine which immunotherapy might best target the tumor. The combination immunotherapy arms include: Arm A: Nivolumab + anti-GITR Arm B: Nivolumab + IDO1 inhibitor Arm C: Nivolumab + Ipilimumab
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has become the standard procedure for staging of patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer. Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) has also been a standard treatment for patients with early breast cancer. However, approximately 10% of patients with BCS develop ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR), and mastectomy or resection of the recurrent tumor is generally performed. There are no specific guidelines available regarding staging and treatment of the regional lymph nodes. However, the reported risk of axillary lymph node metastasis among patients with local recurrence after breast surgery and a previous negative sentinel node biopsy of 26 % is too high to be ignored. Moreover, evaluation of the regional lymph node basins might be helpful to decide on the indication for adjuvant radiotherapy and systemic treatment. For these reasons it seems sensible to perform a regional lymph node staging procedure in patients with locally recurrent breast cancer. In general practice, this would mean that patients with recurrent breast cancer and a previous negative sentinel node biopsy would receive an axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and that patients with a previous ALND would receive no additional axillary staging. Lymphatic drainage after previous breast surgery and/or radiotherapy would be altered and it remains questionable whether SLNB at the time of surgery for IBTR (second SLNB) is technically feasible and ALND can safely be omitted. In this study, investigators propose for all patients the realization of SLNB procedure and systematically ALND whatever the results of SLNB analysis, only on patients previously treated with breast conservative surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate on a homogeneous prospective multicentric cohort of patients the feasibility and the accuracy of a second SLNB procedure for IBTR.
A total of 440 patients meeting enrollment criteria with a primary episode of C. Difficile Infection (CDI) will be enrolled across 3 sites. The total study time period for study procedures followed by clinical monitoring is anticipated to be about 24 months (biomarker assays and other analyses may be completed after the 24 month time period). All participants will receive oral antibiotics for CDI under the care of their physician. After consenting to participate in the study, participants will be randomized to receive either misoprostol (200 mcg po BID) or matching placebo for 14 days. Participants will be monitored for a total time-period of approximately 9 weeks with the goal of monitoring for recurrence of CDI during an 8-week follow-up period from the time that the course of antibiotic treatment is completed. Patients will have blood and stool samples (or rectal swabs if participants are unable to provide a stool sample) collected throughout the study to assess adherence, biomarkers, and to confirm recurrence of CDI (if necessary).
This is a Phase II, multicenter, open-label, randomized study to compare the efficacy of venetoclax in combination with fulvestrant compared with fulvestrant alone in women with ER+, HER2-negative, locally advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) who experienced disease recurrence or progression during or after treatment with CDK4/6i therapy for at least 8 weeks. As of 9th October 2020, participants in the Venetoclax + Fulvestrant arm, have all discontinued Venetoclax treatment and have continued on Fulvestrant treatment alone.
