Active clinical trials for "Melanoma"

This study will look at the safety of the combination of three drugs (CDX-1401, Poly-ICL, and Pembrolizumab) and its effect on decreasing tumors. Pembrolizumab is an experimental cancer drug. CDX-1401 is a tumor specific antigen and Poly-ICL is a Toll-like receptor agonist tumor specific antigens which when combined with Pembrolizumab may increase the tumor response to this drug.

Abbreviated Title: An explorative Phase II study of Anti-PD-1 (Pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced melanoma (ADAPTeM) Trial Phase: Phase II Clinical Indication: Stage III unresectable/stage IV metastatic melanoma Trial Type: Exploratory Phase II trial Route of administration: Intravenous Pembrolizumab, 200mg, 3weekly Trial Blinding: Unblinded; open label Phase II study Treatment Groups: All participants treated with Pembrolizumab, 200mg iv, 3weekly Number of trial subjects: 40 Estimated duration of trial: 24 months Duration of Participation: 24 months

This is a phase 1b/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of metronomic combination therapy in subjects with melanoma who have progressed on or after chemotherapy and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well nivolumab or expectant observation following ipilimumab, nivolumab, and surgery work in treating patients with high-risk mucosal melanoma that is restricted to the site of origin without evidence of spread, has spread to a local and regional area of the body, or has come back. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sometimes the mucosal melanoma may not need more treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. It is not known if nivolumab or expectant observation following ipilimumab, nivolumab, and surgery may be better in treating patients with mucosal melanoma.

Quantification and follow-up during 3 years of circulating tumoral DNA in patients with choroidal melanoma

This study is being done to find out if the combination of dabrafenib, trametinib and digoxin will lessen the side effects that you may experience and to measure your response and duration of response to the combination of drugs.

This is a Phase 2, single center study to evaluate the efficacy, safety of nivolumab in combination with radiation therapy in patients with mucosal melanoma of the head and neck (MMHN). Target Accrual and Study duration We will accrue up to 26 patients. It is estimated to take up to 2 years. The sample size is calculated by use of SWOG CRAB (Cancer Research And Biostatistics) to control the type I error at 5 % for null hypothesis that the true response rate was 25 % or below and to have 80 % of power if the true response rate was 50 % or higher. Although the target number of evaluable patients is 23, we planned to recruit 10% more than the target number of patients considering dropout, total 26.

The study is designed to be able to prove if the Molemap Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm can be used as a diagnostic aid in a clinical setting. This study will determine whether the diagnostic accuracy of the Molemap AI algorithm is comparable to a specialist dermatologist, teledermatologist and registrar (as a surrogate for a general practitioner). The study patient population will be adult patients who require skin cancer assessment. The use of AI as a diagnostic aid may assist primary care physicians who have variable skill in skin cancer diagnosis and lead to more appropriate referrals (rapid referral for lesions requiring treatment and fewer referrals for benign lesions), thereby improving access and reducing waiting times for specialist care.

The purpose of this research study is to find the dose of the study drug PDR001 that, when given in combination with the drug Panobinostat, results in the best outcomes for metastatic melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

This pilot clinical trial studies booster vaccination in preventing disease recurrence in previously vaccinated patients with melanoma that has been removed by surgery. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving booster vaccinations may make a stronger immune response and prevent or delay the recurrence of cancer.
