Filter by:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as anti-PD-1/PD-L1 agents, initially evaluated in advanced non-curative pathologies, are now being evaluated in adjuvant or even neoadjuvant curative treatment conditions. This paradigm shift is leading to the treatment of young women, particularly in the context of gestational trophoblastic tumours. Given the potential autoimmune side-effects affecting endocrine functions, as well as their impact on maternal-foetal tolerance mechanisms, accurate assessment of post-ICT fertility is necessary. In the coming years, treatment with anti-PD-L1 (avelumab) could become a cornerstone of the therapeutic strategy for patients with gestational trophoblastic tumours. However, these patients are often young and of childbearing age, so safety of use in terms of fertility and successful pregnancies is an essential factor in the widespread use of immunotherapy as a treatment option. Some studies have reported the possibility of conceiving after avelumab treatment, but no cohort has been reported. This study aims to explore fertility and the course of potential pregnancy in 50 patients treated with anti-PD-L1 (avelumab) over the last 5 years in several French centres.
Gestational Trophoblastic Diseases (GTD) are a variety of rare, pregnancy related cell multiplication disorders of cells of the placenta which can range from pre-cancerous growths to more serious lesions that can spread to nearby tissues that can cause serious health issues. Most patients that develop GTD are diagnosed at the precancerous stage early in pregnancy and undergo surgical removal of the disease from the uterus. Around 15% of patients are not cured by surgical removal alone and need to undergo further treatment with chemotherapy or further surgery; of which roughly one-third of patients are cured with a second round of surgery alone. Anti-cancer treatment with chemotherapy carries many short- and long-term side effects that can negatively affect a person's quality of living. Finding less harmful anticancer therapies that can be paired with surgery is therefore of great benefit to patients with recurrent GTD. An alternative is to pair surgery with another class of anticancer treatments, known as immunotherapies. Immunotherapy aims to encourage the bodies natural defences to fight the cancer cells. Pembrolizumab, an immunotherapeutic agent which works by preventing cancer cells from hiding from the immune system; has been proven to be an extremely safe form of anticancer therapy and is an attractive alternative to more toxic chemotherapeutic agents. The RESOLVE study aims to determine how feasible it is to deliver pre-surgical pembrolizumab to patients and determine if this is a desirable alternative; potentially leading to a larger more definitive study. 20 patients will be recruited onto the study and will be evenly split into two arms: - 10 patients to receive second evacuation alone - 10 patients to receive single dose of Pembrolizumab followed by surgery All patients that take part in the study will be recruited from Charing Cross Hospital and will be followed up for a year after the date of their surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of ScTIL in the treatment of recurrent or refractory cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and malignant trophoblastic tumor, to evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of ScTIL, and to explore and analyze the changes of CTC, ctDNA and immunohistochemical Library of malignant tumor subjects before and after ScTIL treatment.Treatment will be terminated upon progressive disease, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Subjects with responses other than progressive disease will receive subsequent rounds of ScTIL treatment.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of second uterine curettage in patients with low-risk non-metastatic GTN.
The investigators conducted a randomized trial to study how well multi-day methotrexate protocol works compared to biweekly single-dose actinomycin D protocol in treating patients with low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. It is not yet known whether multi-day methotrexate protocol is as effective as biweekly single-dose actinomycin D protocol in treating patients with gestational trophoblastic neoplasia.
This study is to collect and validate regulatory-grade real-world data (RWD) in oncology using the novel, Master Observational Trial construct. This data can be then used in real-world evidence (RWE) generation. It will also create reusable infrastructure to allow creation or affiliation with many additional RWD/RWE efforts both prospective and retrospective in nature.
In this study, a prospective, multicenter randomized controlled study was conducted to compare the clinical efficacy and toxicity response of combination MTX+ACTD multi-course regimen in low-risk GTN patients with score 5-6 with standard MTX single-drug multi-course regimen.
Gestational trophoblastic tumors are characterized by their development from placental tissue and their high invasive and metastatic potential. These are rare tumors (1/50 000 pregnancies) affecting young women for whom conservative fertility treatments are preferred. The therapeutic strategy is based on a chemotherapy whose choice of protocol is based on a clinico-biological score, FIGO score, which includes tumor size, gonadotropic chorionic hormone level used as quantitative tumor marker, number and localization. metastases. A FIGO score ≤6 allows the use of monochemotherapy (methotrexate) with a 5-year survival of approximately 99.7%. Scores of 7 to 12 and ≥13 require multidrug therapy (EMA-CO) and are associated with 5-year survival of 95.1% and 61.6%, respectively. The chemotherapies currently used for the treatment of trophoblastic tumors have been described between the 1950s (methotrexate) and the 1980s (EMA-CO) and have a well documented toxicity regarding the risk of secondary tumors, early menopause or even death by toxicity. . To date, apart from the FIGO score, there is no predictor of resistance to chemotherapy in gestational trophoblastic tumors. However, among patients with a FIGO score ≤6 and receiving methotrexate in the first line, 9 to 46% will have a resistance and require a second line of treatment. Similarly, if the score is ≥7, 10 to 30% of patients receiving EMA-CO will require at least a second line of multidrug therapy. The hypothesis of PrediCTTro study is that tissue samples of gestational choriocarcinoma present a transcriptomic profile associated with the risk of further resistance to single or multiagent chemotherapy. The objective of PrediCTTro is to identify a transcriptomic signature able to predict resistance to single or multiagent chemotherapy.
The French Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD) centre has been set up and active by registering, monitoring and treating women with GTD since november 1999. The aim is to improve the management of trophoblastic disease in France. About 850 new cases are registered each year and 140 women treated, mostly with chemotherapy and surgery. The center works as follow, based on a multidisciplinary approach. The policy is that patient remains followed by her local physician, but can be seen and treated in the Center at demand and that the registry is done on a voluntary basis. Each administrative french area has a local expert team (oncologist and gynaecologist) who is able to look after the patients with the help of the national reference center physicians based in Lyon. - Once a doctor discovers a molar pregnancy, he contacts the center, with the agreement of his patient, for an opinion, an advice or simply to report the case. - The center sends to the doctor the informed consent form to be signed by the patient, a registering form and information about pathology for patient and physician, and first guidelines based on initial pathology report. The patient remains followed by her gynecologist, who stays her first interlocutor throughout the whole process and she goes to her local laboratory for hCG monitoring; - A letter is sent to the initial pathology laboratory that originally carried the diagnosis of molar pregnancy to require slide sending to the pathologist referral center (9 experts with a specific pathologist national network) that centrally review initial diagnosis. - In the mean time, the data manager collects weekly hCG values to establish a follow-up chart. The physician is regularly informed by mail of the hCG evolution. - The local physician is contacted in case of modification of the diagnosis by the pathologist expert. The center informs him about length and monitoring methodology. - Emails or letters are sent at each step of the management (at inclusion, at hCG negativation, and at the end of hCG follow-up). - In case of abnormal hCG evolution (raise, plateauing or positivity at 6 months,) or if a neoplasia is anatomopathologically diagnosed (choriocarcinoma, PSTT or ETT), physician is immediately contacted by phone or email by referent gynaecologist. A complete work up including pelvic US with Doppler, pelvic MRI, thoraco-abdominal CT-scan with chest radiography if pulmonary nodules are present and brain MRI, is planned to determine the adequate treatment. Very briefly, based on imaging results, FIGO stade and score are calculated to determine the risk. In case of low-risk, a monochemotherapy is settled, while a polychemotherapy is started in case of high-risk disease. The investigators have developped specific expertise at key levels of diagnosis, management, follow-up, fertility preservation and treatment. Assignments : - Registration and monitoring post diagnosis of complete or partial molar pregnancy, choriocarcinoma,PSTT, ETT, atypical placental site nodules - Histopathological analysis and genetics services - Measurement of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) isoforms - Complex gynaecological surgery
This phase II trial studies nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with rare tumors.
