Active clinical trials for "Melanoma"

This is a multicenter, Phase II, open-label, 42-patient single-arm trial of intratumoral pIL-12 electroporation (EP) in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with melanoma. Patients will be evaluated in 2 parts. Part A patients will be selected using a flow cytometric assay that quantifies intratumoral PD-1hiCD8+CTLA4+ "exhausted" lymphocytes in the tumor. Part B will enroll patients who have or are failing pembrolizumab at least 12 weeks after starting Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody alone or in combination, or, who have been selected using a flow cytometric assay that quantifies intratumoral PD-1hiCD8+CTLA4+ "exhausted" lymphocytes in the tumor.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different schedules of administration of vemurafenib in combination with cobimetinib (continuous and intermittent) in previously untreated BRAFV600- mutation positive patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic melanoma.

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of treatment with oral microbiome study intervention (SER-401) or matching placebo in combination with anti-programmed cell death 1 (anti-PD-1) therapy (nivolumab) in participants with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. The study also intends to assess clinical outcomes, the impact of microbiome study intervention administration on the microbiome profile, and its association with clinical and immunological outcomes.

A Multicenter Open-Label Single-Arm Multi-Cohort Phase I Study of Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Safety, and Immunogenicity of BCD-145 (JSC BIOCAD, Russia) Monotherapy in Patients with Unresectable/Metastatic Melanoma.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of novel spartalizumab (PDR001) combinations in previously treated unresectable or metastatic melanoma

The purpose of this study is to determine safety profile, initial response rates and progression free survival for the combination therapy of neoadjuvant system ipilimumab followed by ILI with melphalan in patients with in transit melanoma. Hypothesis: The combination of regional LPAm plus systemic ipilimumab will lead to a larger response rate than either therapy alone. The combination of regional LPAm plus systemic ipilimumab will cause larger changes in immune cell populations than are seen with either therapy along. Changes in immune cell populations will predict progression free survival.

This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of every-3-week dosing (Q3W) of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants with advanced melanoma; participants may receive pembrolizumab for up to 2 years if deriving clinical benefit. The primary study hypothesis is that treatment with single agent pembrolizumab will result in a clinically meaningful overall response rate.

This clinical trial studies how well FDG-PET/CT measures early response in patients with stage III-IV melanoma who are receiving chemotherapy. Positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) uses a metabolic imaging radiotracer, [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), which selectively accumulates in tumors. FDG-PET/CT of advanced melanoma before, during, and after treatment may improve methods for predicting which patients may benefit from therapy.

Patients with BRAF V600 mutant advanced melanoma benefit from treatment with a BRAF-inhibitor (e.g. dabrafenib, vemurafenib) and from combination of a BRAF- and MEK-inhibitor (e.g. dabrafenib and trametinib). Following initial tumor regression, progression is diagnosed in a majority of patients treated with BRAF-inhibitor mono-therapy within the first 12-months of therapy. Various molecular mechanisms that underlie the development of resistance to treatment with a BRAF-inhibitor have been reported. These mechanisms do not include secondary mutations in the BRAF-gene and therefore resistance to BRAF-inhibition could potentially be reversible when selective pressure by BRAF-inhibition is withheld for a sufficient period of time of melanoma progression. This clinical trial protocol addresses the potential renewed anti-tumor activity of combined BRAF- and MEK inhibition with the combination of dabrafenib and trametinib in patients with unresectable AJCC stage III or - IV BRAF V600 mutant melanoma who are documented with progression of disease at least 12 weeks following the last day of dosing of a BRAFinhibitor containing treatment regimen.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the side effects and safety, and effectiveness of combining dabrafenib and trametinib with radiotherapy. Previous and ongoing clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of combining both dabrafenib and trametinib compared with dabrafenib alone. This has led to the approval for the use of both drugs in combination in people with metastatic melanoma with the BRAF mutation. Melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body may also benefit from radiotherapy to help reduce symptoms from melanoma. Previous studies have shown that melanoma may be sensitive to radiotherapy and that it can help to improve quality of life. The intention of the CombiRT study is to establish if dabrafenib, trametinib and radiotherapy combined is a safe and effective treatment for metastatic melanoma.
