Filter by:This study is designed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy for limited advanced unresectable thymoma or thymic carcinoma.
This study aims to investigate the clinical activity of sunitinib in patients with advanced thymic carcinoma who have failed chemotherapy.
This phase II trial studies how well ribociclib works in treating patients with neuroendocrine tumors of the foregut, which includes the thymus, lung, stomach, and pancreas, that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced tumors). Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This is a single arm, single-stage, phase II trial to evaluate the activity of Regorafenib in patients with metastatic solid tumors (pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, melanoma, sarcoma, thymoma (type B2 - B3) and thymic carcinoma, who have progressed after standard therapy.
Thymic tumors are rare tumors, but represent the most common tumors of the anterior mediastinum. Thymoma has an indolent course in advanced disease and has the propensity to spread to the pleura. In first line therapy, combination chemotherapy produces responses in approximately 80% of patients. A number of single agents have activity in recurrent disease, but none are curable. Patients with recurrent thymoma have limited treatment options, and thus novel target modalities are needed. At the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center (IUSCC), more patients with advance thymoma are seen than any other institution in the country. Our main hypothesis is the PI3K pathway is an important driver for growth and metastasis of thymoma and that inhibition of the PI3K pathway is expected to produce clinically meaningful response in patients with recurrent thymoma.
Given the high expression of IGF-1R and pAKT proteins in thymoma tissues, able to sensitize tumors to mTOR inhibition, and the anticancer activity of the mTOR inhibitors, clinical evaluation in thymoma and thymic carcinoma seems to be very interesting. Patients will receive continuous treatment with oral everolimus 10 mg once daily. Efficacy and safety profile of Everolimus will be evaluated.
This is a monocenter, single-arm, open label phase II trial evaluating the effect of SOM230 LAR in adult patients with inoperable primary thymoma and thymoma metastasis (Masaoka II-IVa). SOM230 LAR in a dosage of 60 mg is administered i.m. once every 4 weeks. The purpose of this trial is a proof of concept.
A research study of the drug amrubicin in patients with cancer of the thymus (thymoma or thymic carcinoma). We hope to learn whether this drug is an effective and safe treatment for thymic cancers.
Allogeneic transplant from a matched sibling for the treatment of a variety of illnesses including bone marrow failure states, leukemias, myelodysplastic or myeloproliferative syndromes, lymphoma, or myeloma using a nonmyeloablative preparative regimen.
The purpose of this study is to study characteristics of patients with thymoma in Chulalongkorn hospital between 2003-2007.
