Filter by:This is a phase 1 dose escalation trial of ZM008, an anti-LLT1 antibody as a single agent followed by combination with Pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors who have exhausted all standard therapy available or are intolerant of the same.
This clinical trial assesses an effective and translatable care model to understand and reduce the adverse effects that cancer patients experience during their treatment therapies and thereby enhance their well-being and quality of life. Excessive immune activation can affect multiple organs with the most common adverse effects being skin rash, diarrhea, colitis, fatigue, hypothyroidism and anorexia. A restrictive calorie diet, mostly of fat and complex carbohydrates, will mimic fasting and increase resiliency to protect patients from the adverse effects of cancer treatments, by managing the adverse side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) treatments in select cancer patients. The fast mimicking diet (FMD) (Xentigen®) is a calorie restrictive, low-calorie, low-protein, high complex carbohydrate, high-fat diet. The FMD program is a plant-based diet program designed to attain fasting-like effects while providing both macro- and micronutrients to minimize the burden of fasting and adverse effects. The FMD consists of 100% ingredients which are generally regarded as safe (GRAS) and comprises mainly of vegetable-based soups and broths, energy bars, energy drinks, cracker snacks, herbal teas, and supplements. Following a FMD may reduce the adverse effects that some cancer patients experience while following immunotherapy treatments.
This study is a multicenter, non-interventional, retrospective, medical chart review of locally advanced or metastatic (la/m) Urothelial Cancer UC participants who were prescribed avelumab as first line maintenance therapy after a platinum-based chemotherapy. This study aims to understand the index date (i.e., at the initiation of avelumab maintenance therapy) demographics and clinical characteristics of participants with locally advanced/metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma in Japan, and to describe their treatment patterns and outcomes.
This study is being done to collect blood, tissue and urine samples to identify a novel high quality methylated DNA marker in patients with renal tumors.
The goal of this study is to test a new PET imaging agent in patients with solid tumors. This tracer is made of a radioactively-labeled monoclonal antibody MNPR-101, and can show where tumors are present in the body using a PET-scan. The investigators will investigate if the new imaging agent correctly shows all tumor lesions. In the future, this method may be useful to help predict who will benefit from certain therapies. Participants will be injected with the radioactive tracer once. After injection, participants will undergo 3 PET-scans. Each PET-scan will take a maximum of 30 minutes. The PET-scans are on separate days within 10 days after injection of the tracer (e.g., 2 hours after injection plus 3-5 days and 7-10 days after injection). Furthermore, the investigators will take blood samples 6 times (5 mL each). Blood pharmacokinetics (PK) will be measured on Day 1 at 10 min, 1h, 2h, once on Days 3-5, and once on Days 7-10. The amount of radioactivity injected will range between 37-74 MBq (±10%).
Novel treatment modalities like targeted therapies and Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionised the therapeutic landscape in oncology and hematology, significantly improving outcomes even in clinical contexts in which little improvement had been observed for decades such as metastatic melanoma, lung cancer, and lymphoproliferative neoplasms such as chronic lymphoid leukemia or Hodgkin lymphoma. However, major issues remain unsolved, given the frequent occurrence of primary or secondary resistance and the still incomplete understanding of the physiopathology of adverse events, which represent a major cause of morbidity and treatment interruption and often remain difficult to treat and diagnose. In this complex landscape, identifying the best treatment option for each patient remains challenging. For both targeted therapies and Immune checkpoint inhibitors, several biomarkers have been reported, but their implementation in clinical practice is still uncommon, and most of the decision-making process remains based on purely clinical considerations or constraints dictated by the regulatory bodies. Obstacles to biomarker-driven decision making are manifold and include insufficient understanding of the underlying biology, lack of strong evidence on their predictive power and limited tumor sampling, which may be circumvented by non-invasive techniques such as liquid biopsies.
Urothelial cancers of the bladder and upper urinary tract account for over 200,000 deaths and 600,000 diagnoses annually worldwide. The most common presenting symptom is hematuria (blood in urine), triggering a cascade of tests, including an invasive examination of the bladder using a flexible scope (cystoscopy). Millions of cystoscopies are performed every year worldwide for patients presenting with hematuria, but only 10% result in a cancer diagnosis. The UROSCOUT-1 trial is a prospective multicenter observational study that explores the potential of urine tumor DNA (utDNA) testing to replace a significant portion of cystoscopies in the diagnostic setting for hematuria or other reasons to rule out urothelial cancer. The goal is to enhance patient quality of life, reduce healthcare costs, and address increased workloads in urology centers. Sample collection will be conducted by mail, and the samples will be analyzed in a blinded manner, without knowledge of which patients are diagnosed with cancer. Random subsampling will be applied to cancer-negative patients to achieve an approximate 1:1 ratio between cancer-positive and -negative patients.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BL-M07D1 in patients with HER2 expressing advanced tumors.
This study aims to evaluate the safety, and early signals of anti-tumor activity of PF-07820435 when administered alone (Part 1A) or in combination with sasanlimab (Part 1B; Part 2) in patients with selected advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Part 1 will be dose-finding and Part 2 of the study will further evaluate PF-07820435 at the recommended dose for combination expansion in patients with selected advanced solid tumors.
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.
