Filter by:The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of niraparib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and a pathogenic or likely pathogenic tumor PALB2 (tPALB2) mutation.
This study will be done to investigate perioperative lidocaine infusion on neutrophil extracellular trapping in the patients undergoing the robot-assisted prostatectomy.
This trial studies how well tucatinib works for solid tumors that make either more HER2 or a different type of HER2 than usual (HER2 alterations) The solid tumors studied in this trial have either spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed completely with surgery (unresectable). All participants will get both tucatinib and trastuzumab. People with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer will also get a drug called fulvestrant. The trial will also look at what side effects happen. A side effect is anything a drug does besides treating cancer.
The development of Immune Checkpoint Blockade (ICB) is a revolution in medical oncology as ICB have changed the standard treatments of several metastatic tumor types. However, the response rate to ICB is low, and the biological bases for this response heterogeneity are poorly understood. In the frame of Immunosup study, we will collect blood (at baseline, post infusion of ICB n°2/4/8 and at progression) and tumor samples (optional: at baseline and progression) from patients with locally advanced or metastatic cancer, treated with ICB, in order to determine if the dynamics of immunosuppressive actors (MDSC, TReg, Immunosuppressive cytokines) predicts response to these immunotherapies.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of cabozantinib and sunitinib when given to patients with metastatic (has spread) variant histology renal cell carcinoma (vhRCC), a type of kidney cancer. This is an investigational study. Cabozantinib and sunitinib are both FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of advanced kidney cancer, including vhRCC. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 84 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
Objectives: Primary: Safety and tolerability of therapy with daratumumab in a cohort of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a cohort of patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer. Secondary: 1A. To assess the proportion of patients who achieve pathological CR with daratumumab in patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer. 1B. To assess the objective response rate (ORR) to daratumumab in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. 2. To assess the progression free survival for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma receiving Daratumumab.
Some tumors are difficult to treat with chemotherapy or radiation. One of the reasons is that areas of the tumor do not have many blood vessels, which makes it difficult for drugs to reach those areas. One way that researchers have recently tried to overcome this problem is by injecting special kinds of bacteria into the tumors. These bacteria have been genetically changed to remove the chemicals that are poisonous to humans, but are still able to cause tumor cells to break down and die. The idea is that these bacteria may be able to assist chemotherapy drugs in fighting cancer. The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of one of these bacterial therapies (Clostridium novyi-NT spores) that can be given in combination with pembrolizumab to patients with advanced solid tumors. The safety of this drug will also be studied, as well as whether it can help to control the disease. This is an investigational study. Clostridium novyi-NT is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes only. Pembrolizumab is FDA approved for the treatment of melanoma and different types of head and neck and non-small cell lung cancers. It is investigational to use these drugs in combination with each other in various types of advanced cancers. The study doctor can describe how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 18 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
This study will test an experimental drug (enfortumab vedotin) alone and with different combinations of anticancer therapies. Pembrolizumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) that is used to treat patients with cancer of the urinary system (urothelial cancer). This type of cancer includes cancer of the bladder, renal pelvis, ureter or urethra. Some parts of the study will look at locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (la/mUC), which means the cancer has spread to nearby tissues or to other areas of the body. Other parts of the study will look at muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), which is cancer at an earlier stage that has spread into the muscle wall of the bladder. This study will look at the side effects of enfortumab vedotin alone and with other anticancer therapies. A side effect is a response to a drug that is not part of the treatment effect. This study will also test if the cancer shrinks with the different treatment combinations.
This study is designed for patients diagnosed with MET-driven, unresectable and locally advanced or metastatic Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to see if an investigational new anti-cancer medication, savolitinib, is effective in treating patients with MET-driven PRCC, how it compares with another medication frequently used to treat this disease called sunitinib, and what side effects it might cause.
This is a mono-center, open-label, phase 1 study evaluating the humanized anti-PD-1 antibody JS001, as a monotherapy in patients with advanced melanoma or urological cancers who have failed in routine systemic treatment. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: dose escalation and cohort expansion to investigate tolerability and efficacy.
