Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

The CaPture trial is a prospective, multi-centre, non-randomized phase II study. Its aim is to assess feasibility, safety and efficacy signals of Cabozantinib treatment in patients with HCC and prior non-response or disease progression during a PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor treatment. Since the potential study population is very small, the sample size has been fixed in advance to N = 40. Time on treatment (TT) will be measured as primary endpoint.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of ION363 on clinical function and survival in carriers of fused in sarcoma mutations with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FUS-ALS).

This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of a novel liver specific nerve block in improving pain control during painful liver interventional radiology procedures including liver tumoral ablation and trans arterial chemoembolization, two procedures aimed at controlling liver tumors, but that can be associated with significant pain. This novel hepatic specific nerve block was designed by us and initial retrospective results suggests it might help in controlling such liver procedural derived pain. The study was designed to compare the liver block to a sham procedure in a blinded context and to follow the participants over three days post-procedure to asses for pain levels.

Ibrutinib, an inhibitor of Bruton´s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is approved in CLL as continuous, daily administration of 420 mg orally until progression. Ibrutinib drug costs in health care are rapidly increasing and are difficult to predict, as long-term follow up analyses have shown that many patients remain on therapy for several years, in some cases even many years. It has been observed that patients who stop ibrutinib due to side effects may often remain with continued CLL disease control i.e. in stable partial remission even when off ibrutinib therapy. There are also emerging data on mutations within BTK, with loss of efficacy of ibrutinib, during long-term continuous administration. These observations raise the question whether alternative dosing strategies may be feasible. This pilot study will explore intermittent and repeated dosing of ibrutinib, until alternative therapy is required due to resistance or intolerance to ibrutinib. An "ON-OFF" dosing strategy will be applied, where advanced-phase CLL patients who have received at least 6 months of ibrutinib and who have achieved a stable PR will stop ibrutinib and be followed off therapy until clinical progression, at which ibrutinib will be re-instituted. Such "ON-OFF" ibrutinib cycles may be repeated until non-tolerability or resistance, or need of continuous dosing of ibrutinib (i.e. early progression when off the drug). If successful, the study will indicate a way forward towards reducing ibrutinib drug costs in health care without affecting long-term disease control, possibly also with fewer ibrutinib-related side effects due to a lower cumulative dose of ibrutinib. Long-term effects on potential mutations within BTK and its downstream signaling molecules will also be analysed.

This is a multicentre non-randomized phase II study of proton beam radiotherapy in patients with thymic epithelial tumours (i.e. thymoma and thymic carcinoma) in the post-operative setting or in inoperable patients with localized disease. Patients not willing or for any reason unsuitable to undergo proton treatment will be asked to participate in a follow-up assessment after the regular photon treatment in the same manner as the included patients. Primary endpoints are:Toxicity (e.g. cardiac and pulmonary toxicity) and Local control at 5 year Secondary endpoints: PFS, Overall survival, Quality of life, measured by EORTC QLQ 30 + LC 13 and relapse pattern

This will be a nonrandomized, single arm feasibility study with the primary goal of evaluating the safety profile of the combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab in patients with advanced/metastatic HCC with Child-Pugh B7 and B8 liver disease who have received no prior systemic therapy.

This is a phase 1/2 study of ZN-c3 in combination with gemcitabine in adult and pediatric subjects with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma.

A multicentre, open-label, non-randomized, phase Ib neoadjuvant study of intravenous NG-641, as monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab, in patients with surgically resectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).

Chiauranib , which simultaneously targets against VEGFR/Aurora B/CSF-1R, several key kinases involved in tumor angiogenesis, tumor cell mitosis, and chronic inflammatory microenvironment.

The purpose of this trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of hypofractionated IMPT for the reirradiation of locoregionally recurrent rectal cancer.
