Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

Multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase 1/2 study on the safety and efficacy of the combination of NMS-03305293 and temozolomide (TMZ) in adult patients with diffuse gliomas (Phase 1) and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild type glioblastoma (Phase 2) at first relapse.

While surgery is considered the only potentially curative therapy for pancreatic cancer, 5-year overall survival (OS) is typically <25%. Following surgical resection of pancreatic cancer, adjuvant conventionally fractionated RT (CRT, delivering 45-54 Gy in 1.8-2.0 Gy per fraction) with 5-FU chemotherapy is recommended in high-risk patients (positive lymph nodes and/or R1-R2 resection margin status). However, the benefit of CRT in this setting is controversial due to lack of prospective positive data. Moreover, duration of treatment course (delaying initiation of more effective chemotherapy schedules), insufficient dose delivery due potential radiation-related severe toxicity to proximity organs represents a serious limitation to treatment efficacy. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) is a novel radiotherapy technique consisting of highly focused irradiation with a steep dose gradient, thus allowing the delivery of ablative radiation doses and significant sparing of proximity critical structures. Higher doses per fraction allows for more intensive treatments and shorter duration of the radiation course.

While chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T-cell) therapy produces impressive response rates in heavily pre-treated patients, early loss of response remains a barrier. One potential mechanism of relapse is limited CAR T-cell persistence. Pre-clinical research shows that PI3K inhibition represents an intriguing mechanism for increasing CAR T-cell persistence that is easily reversible and CAR T-cell agnostic. The investigators hypothesize that PI3K inhibition with duvelisib would be safe, may provide effective prophylaxis against cytokine release syndrome (CRS), and may enhance the persistence and efficacy of CAR T-cells in the treatment of hematologic malignancies.

Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an established local treatment method for patients with hepatic oligometastases. Liver metastases often occur in close proximity to radiosensitive organs at risk (OARs). This limits the possibility to apply sufficiently high doses needed for optimal local control. MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) is expected to hold potential to improve hepatic SBRT by offering superior soft-tissue contrast for enhanced target identification as well as the benefit of daily real-time adaptive treatment. The MAESTRO trial therefore aims to assess the potential advantages of adaptive, gated MR-guided SBRT (MRgSBRT) compared to conventional SBRT at a standard linac using an ITV (internal target volume) approach (ITV-SBRT).

This is a single arm, single center, open label pilot study of Orelabrutinib combined with Rituximab, high-dose (HD) Methotrexate and Dexamethasone in newly-diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphpoma (PCNSL). The purpose is to evaluate the safety and to find the optimal dose of Orelabrutinib and Methotrexate in this combination treatment for newly-diagnosed PCNSL patients.

This multi-site, Phase 2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO100 (perillyl alcohol) for the treatment of patients with residual high-grade meningioma following resection surgery, radiographically-confirmed progression of high-grade meningioma or recurrent high-grade meningioma. There will be up to 30 patients enrolled in this study to have 29 evaluable patients. NEO100 will be self-administered four times daily on a 28-day treatment cycle for up to twelve cycles, until disease progression or death, whichever occurs first. Following the completion of cycle twelve, patients receiving benefit will be given the option to continue receiving compassionate use treatment with NEO100.

This is a FIH, single center, open label, non-randomized, single-arm, Phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CD5 CAR T cells in subjects with relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. At least 18 subjects will be enrolled. After the collection of PBMC and about 5 days before infusion, lymphodepletion (fludarabine at 30 mg/m^2/day and cyclophosphamide at 250 mg/m^2/day; for prior-SCT donor-derived CAR T-cell infusion) or intensified lymphodepletion (fludarabine at 30 mg/m^2/day and cyclophosphamide at 30 mg/kg/day; for new donor-derived CAR T-cell infusion) will be administrated for 3 days. Then this study will be using BOIN1/2 approach from starting dose 1: 1×10^6 (±20%) to dose 2: 2×10^6 (±20%). If the manufactured cells were not sufficient to meet the preassigned standard dose criteria, patients are given infusion at a low dose of 5×10^5 (±20%) /kg.

Opioid overuse is a widespread public health crisis in the United States with increasing rates of addiction and overdose deaths from prescription opioids. Reducing the need for opiate analgesics in the post-operative setting has become a high priority in minimizing long-term opioid use in surgical patients. This study will serve to demonstrate the efficacy of the addition of regional analgesic techniques in reducing post-operative opioid requirements in patients undergoing common lumbar spinal surgical procedures.

This is a prospective, open-label single-arm, exploratory, two-stage design trial, aiming to investigate safety and efficacy of AK105 with anlotinib and radiotherapy adjuvant therapy in MGMT unmethylated newly diagnosed glioblastoma.

The hypothesis is that the addition of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and allopurinol to chemotherapy in patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) will be safely tolerated and improve outcomes, as measured by response rate and progression-free survival in patients compared to other single agent chemotherapy drugs used in historical controls.
