Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

SUMMARY Rationale: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers, its incidence increases with age. Many patients with localized (non-metastatic) PC have significant comorbidities, advanced age or a poor performance status which preclude chemotherapy and surgery. Because these patients are currently left untreated, it is desirable to find tolerable treatment options for these patients. A short course of high-dose precise radiation therapy i.e. stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) may be feasible in these patients. Review of existing SABR literature for PDAC shows high local control rates, with relatively low toxicity and it was demonstrated to be feasible and well tolerated even in elderly patients. It is unknown whether SABR improves outcomes in this group. The main goal of the current study is to investigate if SABR may relieve tumor-related symptoms, postpone a decrease in global QoL and potentially prolong survival in this patient group compared to the current treatment of choice, best supportive care. Objective: To investigate the potential benefit in survival and quality of life after SABR in patients with localised PDAC for whom no other treatment is available, as compared to controls managed with best supportive care. Study design: A multicentre randomized controlled trial Study population: Patients with biopsy proven, localized PDAC, unfit for chemotherapy and surgery or those who refuse these treatments. They will be randomized between SABR versus best supportive care. Intervention: consists of SABR to the primary tumour in 5 fractions of 8 Gy. Main study endpoints: Primary endpoint is the overall survival rate at six months (from randomization). Secondary endpoints include the evaluation of time to decreased global quality of life (QoL, using the QLQ- C30 and EORTC-PAN26), NRS pain response and Ca19.9 response, acute and subacute toxicity using CTCAEv5.0 and progression-free survival in the treated patients using imaging. It is hypothesized that in frail patients with PDAC, SABR may relieve tumor-related symptoms, improve the quality of life and prolong survival compared to best supportive care. Its aim is to investigate the outcomes of SABR with respect to overall survival, pain response, toxicity and quality of life in patients with non-metastasized PDAC for whom standard radical treatment in the form of surgery or chemotherapy is either too toxic, not possible due to comorbidities, or is refused.

This study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

The study is studying the joint contribution and interactions of germline variants and somatic mutations and their impact on Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) development and treatment (immunotherapy).

Study of NGM831 as Monotherapy and in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

This study is designed to explore the efficacy and safety of surufatinib combined with camrelizumab and AS (nab-paclitaxel and S-1) as first-line treatment compared with AG (nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine) in unresectable advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

This is an open-label, multicentre, randomised phase II trial in relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

This is a Phase III, randomised, double-blind, multicentre, international study assessing the efficacy and safety of durvalumab (MEDI4736) in combination with oleclumab (MEDI9447) or durvalumab (MEDI4736) with monalizumab (IPH2201) in adults with locally advanced (Stage III), unresectable NSCLC, who have not progressed following platinum-based cCRT.

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of ERAS-801 in study participants with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Dose (RD) of ERAS-801. To evaluate the antitumor activity of ERAS-801. To evaluate the PK profile of ERAS-801.

This is a first-in human, open-label, Phase 1 dose-escalation study in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for intravenous (IV) and/or subcutaneous (SC) dosing schemes of this combination treatment, and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of this combination treatment in participants with relapsed/refractory B-cell non Hodgkin lymphoma (r/r NHL).
