Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Neuroendocrine"

The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of rovalpituzumab tesirine in subjects with specific delta-like protein 3-expressing advanced solid tumors.

This is a Phase 1a/1b study of SC-002 in patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) or large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). SC-002 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) comprised of a monoclonal antibody linked to a potent chemotherapy. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of SC-002 at different dose levels, to determine the highest dose of SC-002 that can be given to patients with SCLC or LCNEC, to evaluate the side effects of SC-002, and to assess the anti-cancer activity of SC-002.

Primary objective is to evaluate the tumor response rate of patients with MTC treated with Lithium carbonate

This study is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of the study is to monitor the number of annual new adult cases of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) and to establish a registry for these new cases in order to identify any possible increase related to the introduction of liraglutide, exenatide once-weekly, and other GLP-1 receptor agonists into the US market.

This research study is studying a positron emission tomography (PET) agent called 18F-fluciclovine to evaluate how well 18F-fluciclovine-PET scans determine the extent of advanced prostate cancer that either has low prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expression or has neuroendocrine features. The name of the study interventions are: 18F-fluciclovine-PET/CT scan Two research blood collections

To compare the effects and safety of Anlotinib with placebo in patients with Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma.

Background: Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a tumor of the thyroid gland. Surgery is the only current treatment to cure it. The drug pembrolizumab (MK-3475) is a new type of cancer therapy. It works by allowing the immune system to detect and kill tumor cells. Objective: To test how pembrolizumab affects people with MTC and if it can offer them clinical benefit. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with MTC Patients who have recurrent or metastatic MTC, for whom surgery is not a curative option Patients with some imaging evidence of MTC Patients with minimal symptoms related to MTC Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests Computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): They lie in a machine that takes pictures of the body. Bone scan Participants will be put in a group based on their treatment history: Group 1 if they have had an immune stimulating cancer vaccine Group 2 if they have had no vaccine Participants will receive the study drug as a 30-minute intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks. Treatment will continue for up to 2 years as long as they tolerate it and their disease does not get worse. Participants will have physical exams and blood tests on the day of each infusion. They will have CT and bone scans every 3 months. Participants may save biopsies before treatment and after starting treatment. Participants will have a final visit 3-4 weeks after stopping treatment. This will include a physical exam and blood and heart tests. After this study, participants can join a long-term follow-up study.

A phase II trial to assess the activity and safety of PD0332991 in patients with well- and moderately-differentiated metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET) with overexpression of cell cycle markers (Cdk4 and/or phospho-Rb1 and/or cyclin D1)

To assess the efficacy and safety of Temozolomide for second-line treatment of Neuroendocrine Carcinomas progressing after first-line Platinum-based therapy.

This phase Ib trial studies how well pembrolizumab works with combination chemotherapy in treating participants with small cell/neuroendocrine cancers of the urothelium or prostate that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes or that has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, docetaxel, cisplatin, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving pembrolizumab with platinum-based chemotherapy may work better in treating participants with small cell/neuroendocrine cancers of the urothelium or prostate.
