Active clinical trials for "Endometrial Neoplasms"

The purpose of the first part of this study or the dose escalation portion of the study is to determine what dose of BKM120 and Abraxane is safe to give when the two drugs are used at the same time in patients who are diagnosed with a solid cancer. A solid cancer is a cancer that does not involve the blood, bone marrow or lymph nodes. Dose escalation determines the least toxic and most effect dose of this drug combination for treatment. Once this dose is established, it will be used for the dose expansion phase of the study where we will determine the effect of BKM120 and Abraxane in women diagnosed with a recurrent endometrial or ovarian cancer. We will see whether the combination of both drugs improves the response and survival of patients treated on the two drug regimen. Also we will try to find out whether there are changes in tumors that can help us determine what patients are more likely to respond to BKM120 and Abraxane.

To test the patient's cancerous tumor to see if it has a FGFR mutation and, if so, to see how their cancer responds to a treatment with the drug ponatinib as well as examine the side effects caused by ponatinib.

Abdominal and pelvic radiotherapy (RT) reduces the renewal capacity of the epithelium. Rectal biopsies obtained from patients receiving pelvic RT have revealed atrophy of surface epithelium, acute cryptitis, crypt abscesses, crypt distortion and atrophy, and stromal inflammation. Modifications in intestinal microbiota, such as an increase in the number of pathogens, may contribute to intestinal injury. The prebiotic effect of a carbohydrate is assessed by its capacity to stimulate the proliferation of healthy bacteria (Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus) rather than pathogenic bacteria (Clostridium, E. coli). The hypothesis of the study is that a mixture of inulin and fructooligosaccharide could modulate Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium and reduce the intestinal injury in patients affected of gynaecological cancer and treated with abdominal radiotherapy.

An open-label, non-randomized, single arm study to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of FP-1039 given by weekly intravenous (IV) administrations in advanced endometrial cancer patients with FGFR2-specific mutations. FP-1039 will be dosed weekly starting at a dose of up to 16 mg/kg.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays and other types of radiation to kill tumor cells. Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of capecitabine when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with locally advanced cervical cancer or other pelvic cancer.

Expression of IDO and PD-1/L1 has been found to be increased in endometrial cancer. Expression of these markers on the tumor cells leads to immunosuppression in the micro-environment of tumors that prevents immune system from attacking and killing tumor cells. The purpose of this trial is to target these antigens by concomitant administration of drugs epacadostat and pembrolizumab, thereby removing twin mechanisms of immune-suppression that may lead to better control of tumor growth.

The primary objective of this multicenter, randomized phase II trial is to assess the efficacy, as measured by progression-free survival (PFS), of lenvatinib compared to doxorubicin in advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. The main secondary objective is to evaluate the predictive value of Ang-2 on lenvatinib activity and establishing a cutoff value as potential selection criteria for phase III. Other secondary objectives are to assess the tolerability and safety of lenvatinib in this setting and overall survival, response and disease control.

Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most common gynecologic malignancy in China. EC is staged surgically according to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) system, including depth of myometrial invasion, cervical invasion, and the presence of lymph node metastases. The benefit of lymph node resection on the prognosis of low-risk EC patients is not definite. An accurate staging method preoperative is needed.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of simultaneous hybrid PET/MRI in EC preoperative staging.

The goal of this proposal is to perform first-in-man evaluation of the imaging probe F-18 tetrafluoroborate (BF4) as a PET imaging biomarker for expression of the human sodium/iodide symporter (hNIS) in tissues. .

Open-label study of SF-2577 plus pembrolizumab in advanced, recurrent small cell ovarian cancer as well as select additional ovarian and endometrial cancers within the SWI/SNF pathway.
