Filter by:This phase I trial studies how well a ketogenic dietary intervention works to improve response to immunotherapy in patients with melanoma and kidney cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). A ketogenic diet (KD) means eating fewer carbohydrates and more fats. The purpose is to use ketones (normal breakdown from fat) instead of glucose (sugar) as an energy source. Researchers want to see whether a ketogenic diet can improve tumor response in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). ICI are newer treatment options that help the immune system better fight some cancers. Following a KD may improve tumor response in patients with metastatic melanoma and metastatic kidney cancer treated with ICI.
The goal of this observational study is to find out if Raman Spectroscopy, a type of imaging, can be used to determine the size of skin cancer tumors. The main question it aims to answer is: -Can Raman Spectroscopy help figure out how far a tumor spreads? This study will take measurements using laser light from an experimental, handheld probe by lightly touching the skin.
The SAHARA trial assesses wether combining ultrahypofractionated accelerated radiotherapy (RT) with hyperthermia is as effective as standard hypofractionated high-dose radiation in treating non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC).
In this clinical study, photoacoustic imaging will be used on patients with suspected skin cancer (primarily melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma) to determine the tumor borders both superficially and at a depth.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the sensitivity of CYBRID Score for predicting in-vivo clinical response based on surgical response or RECIST 1.1 for neoadjuvant and locally advanced/metastatic patients, respectively. The secondary purposes is to determine the sensitivity of the CYBRID Score for predicting in-vivo clinical response based on surgical response or RECIST 1.1 for neoadjuvant and locally advanced/metastatic patients, respectively.
The goal of this double-blind, randomized study is to establish the equivalence of the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of the drugs RPH-075 (international nonproprietary name (INN) is pembrolizumab) and Keytruda® (INN is pembrolizumab) when used in patients with unresectable or metastatic skin melanoma first or second line therapy in a monotherapy regimen. The main task is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of RPH-075 and Keytruda® drugs when used in patients with unresectable or metastatic skin melanoma as a 1 or 2 line therapy in monotherapy regimen, according to the objective response rate (ORR) parameter for up to 24 weeks of therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether high-intensity exercise and high-fiber diet are feasible and improve various health outcomes among participants with advanced melanoma receiving immunotherapy. The names of the groups in this research study are: - High-Intensity Exercise (EX) - High-fiber Diet (DT) - Combined High-Intensity Exercise and High-Fiber Diet (COMB) - Attention Control (AC)
This is a two-part (Phase 2/Phase 3) study of V940, an individualized neoantigen therapy (INT), plus pembrolizumab in participants with locally resectable advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (LA cSCC). Phase 2 has three arms V940 plus pembrolizumab given as neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment with standard of care (SOC), standard of care (surgical resection with/without adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) only at investigator's discretion) and pembrolizumab monotherapy given as neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment with SOC. This phase will assess the safety and efficacy of V940 in combination with pembrolizumab as neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in participants with resectable LA cSCC as compared to standard of care SOC only. The primary hypothesis is that V940 plus pembrolizumab with SOC is superior to SOC only with respect to event free survival (EFS) as assessed by the investigator. Phase 3 expansion will be determined by prespecified Go-No-Go decision in which 412 additional participants will be randomized to V940 plus pembrolizumab with SOC and SOC only, without changing the inclusion/exclusion criteria for the additional enrollment or study endpoints.
This study aims to assess if EMLA or ethyl chloride spray are effective in reducing the pain associated with local anaesthetic administration in cutaneous surgery of the head and neck compared to a placebo and control group through a randomized control trial study design.
This phase II trial compares the impact of subcutaneous (SC) nivolumab given in an in-home setting to an in-clinic setting on cancer care and quality of life. Currently, most drug-related cancer care is conducted in clinic type centers or hospitals which may isolate patients from family, friends and familiar surroundings for many hours per day. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. Traveling to and from medical facilities costs time, money, and effort and can be a disadvantage to patients living in rural areas, those with low incomes or poor access to transport. Studies have shown that cancer patients often feel more comfortable and secure being cared for in their own home environments. SC nivolumab in-home treatment may be safe, tolerable and/or effective when compared to in-clinic treatment and may reduce the burden of cancer and improve the quality of life in cancer patients.
