Active clinical trials for "Disease Progression"

The two-year prospective study aims at investigating the benefits of frequent replacement (monthly) orthokeratology lenses in myopia control in terms of effectiveness in control and prevention of ocular complications. The secondary objective will be investigating the use of weekly protein removal system in monthly replacement modality orthokeratology lenses on surface deposit.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) with lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) vs. docetaxel in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and progressive disease (PD) after platinum doublet chemotherapy and treatment with one prior anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (mAb). The primary hypotheses of this study are that pembrolizumab + lenvatinib (compared with docetaxel) prolongs: 1) overall survival (OS); and progression-free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) based on blinded independent central review (BICR).

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, the combination of the drug sorafenib in combination with the drug doxorubicin might have on the growth and spread of liver cancer (HCC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy beyond progression of vemurafenib combined with cobimetinib associated with local treatment compared to second-line treatment in patients with BRAFV600 mutation-positive metastatic melanoma in focal progression with first-line combined vemurafenib and cobimetinib.

The purpose of this phase II, single-arm, open-label, three center study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sEphB4-HSA in patients with mCRPC (metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer). The study drug, sEphB4-HAS, is a form of protein that has not been approved for sale by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The study drug prevents tumor cells from multiplying and blocks several compounds that promote the growth of blood vessels that bring nutrients to the tumor.

The main purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab/vibostolimab coformulation (MK-7684A) plus docetaxel or pembrolizumab/vibostolimab coformulation to normal saline placebo plus docetaxel. Participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and progressive disease (PD) after platinum doublet chemotherapy and treatment with one prior anti- programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/ programmed cell death ligand 1(PD-L1) monoclonal antibody (mAb). MK-7684A is a coformulation product of pembrolizumab/vibostolimab. The dual primary hypotheses of the study are pembrolizumab/vibostolimab coformulation plus docetaxel and pembrolizumab/vibostolimab coformulation is superior to normal saline placebo plus docetaxel with respect to progression free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent central review (BICR).

High tibial osteotomy (HTO) surgical procedure can lead to clinically significant improvements in the cartilage and in subchondral bone quality, with a slow down of the osteoarthritis (OA) progression. Aim of the project is to: (i) clinically validate a 3D planned HTO surgical approach, through a quantitative grading of OA progression in a prospective randomized case-control clinical trial; (ii) correlate the internal knee loads with the changes assessed in cartilage and subchondral bone status to verify the hypothesis that HTO induced mechanical changes are associated with clinically significant OA improvements; (iii) relate imaging data with cartilage and subchondral bone mechanical properties, in order to classify OA progression in a more sensitive manner and allow a more precise diagnosis of the pathology stage.

ACKGROUND: The development of new molecular techniques, in recent years, has increasing the knowledge of the composition and functionality of the intestinal microbiota. In the area of kidney transplantation, observational studies have described a change in the intestinal microbiota during the immediate post-transplantation period that seems to be related to the appearance of clinical outcomes such as diarrhea, repeated urinary tract infections, the need for adjustment of immunosuppressive treatment or acute rejection. However, intervention studies on this subject are necessary to determine how far the microbiota can influence in the development of these events. OBJECTIVE: To clarify the influence of maintaining the composition and functionality of the intestinal microbiota on post-transplant clinical outcomes such as diarrhea, urinary tract infections, kidney graft rejection and the need for dose adjustment of immunosuppressive therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: single-center, randomized, interventional pilot study with 50 deceased kidney donor transplant patients at low immunological risk. Each patient will be randomized at the time of inclusion in the study to one of the 2 branches of the study: 1) Intervention group: 25 patients who will receive a autologous fecal matter transfer during the first 6 months post-transplantation, 2) Control group: 25 renal transplant patients with the same characteristics who will not receive any type of intervention in addition to the immunosuppressive treatment indicated according to hospital protocol.

In this study (i) the host genome to identify susceptibility regions of infection, inflammation, and host defense, (ii) host response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Corona-Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and (iii) viral sequence composition to define viral sequences which may be correlated with disease severity in addition to the metagenome of the throat swab will be analysed .

The objective of the study aims to collect tumor tissue at the moment of progression under Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in biological resources center in Ambroise Paré hospital, in order to insure later study on molecular mechanism involving the progression of NSCLC and SCLC under ICI. The further analysis of research will be performed in the EA 4340 unity, Biomarkers and Clinical Trials in cancerology and onco-hematology, UVSQ, University of Paris-Saclay.
