Active clinical trials for "Melanoma"

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of infliximab and vedolizumab and to see how well they work in treating inflammation of the colon (colitis) caused by immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in patients with cancer of the genital and urinary organs (genitourinary) or melanoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as infliximab or vedolizumab, may help to treat immunotherapy induced colitis/diarrhea. This study may help to identify the optimal treatment strategy for immune checkpoint inhibitor-related colitis in patients with genitourinary cancer or melanoma.

Patients with a primary invasive melanoma are recommended to undergo excision of the primary lesion with a wide margin. There is evidence that less radical margins of excision may be just as safe. This is a randomised controlled trial of 1 cm versus 2 cm margin of excision of the primary lesion for adult patients with stage II primary invasive cutaneous melanomas (AJCC 8th edition) to determine differences in disease-free survival. A reduction in margins is expected to improve patient quality of life.

This study will investigate the safety and tolerability of ADP-A2M4CD8 T-cell therapy in subjects who have the appropriate human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and MAGE-A4 tumor antigen. Tumor indications include endometrial, esophageal, esophagogastric junction (EGJ), gastric, head and neck, melanoma, non-small cell lung (NSCLC), ovarian or urothelial cancer.

The purpose of this research study is to see whether using atezolizumab before surgery is safe and does not cause side effects that delay surgery in participants with cutaneous melanoma that has not spread to other areas of the body (non-metastatic) and can be removed by surgery (resectable) but has a higher risk of coming back after surgery (high-risk).

This phase I trial studies the best dose of sonidegib when given together with pembrolizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with solid tumor that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Sonidegib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving sonidegib and pembrolizumab may work better than standard treatment in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

This phase II trial studies how well binimetinib and nivolumab work in treating patients with BRAF V600 wildtype melanoma that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes and cannot be removed by surgery (locally advanced unresectable) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Binimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving binimetinib and nivolumab together may work better in treating patients with melanoma compared to nivolumab alone.

This is a Phase 2 study in which the efficacy of a non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen followed by infusion of autologous TIL and high-dose aldesleukin in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma will be evaluated. Metastatic uveal melanoma (UM) carries a poor prognosis with estimated survival of 4-6 months. There are no known effective systemic therapies. Metastatic UM is classified as an "orphan" disease and there are currently few clinical trial options for these patients. Thus, novel systemic approaches are desperately needed. A recent pilot study has found that administration of autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) generated from resected metastases can induce objective tumor response and durable complete response in metastatic uveal melanoma patients. These encouraging results require confirmation to determine if this immunotherapy is of future benefit in treating this disease.

This is Phase II trial of nivolumab plus axitinib for patients with unresectable stage III or IV melanoma who have progressed on prior anti-PD1 therapy with or without concomitant anti-CTLA4 therapy. Patients will receive treatment with nivolumab 480 mg intravenously every 4 weeks and axitinib 5 mg twice daily by mouth. Patients may continue both agents for up to two years if they do not experience disease progression or dose-limiting toxicities.

The study will be divided into two stages: phase Ib and phase II. The safety and phase II recommended dose (RP2D) of Pexa-Vec combined with ZKAB001 in patients with local progression of failed first-line treatment or metastatic melanoma will be evaluated in phase Ib. Objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) of ZKAB001 combined with RP2D's Pexa-Vec or ZKAB001 monotherapy in patients with local progression or metastatic melanoma will be evaluated in phase II.

NVG-111 is a bispecific antibody drug, having two "arms", one arm attaches to a substance on cancer cells called ROR1, the other arm attaches to the body's immune cells directing them to kill the cancer cells. This is the first clinical trial of the drug NVG-111, and will include patients with certain types of cancer including chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma (FL) and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in Group A. Subjects with solid tumours, focusing initially on stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or malignant melanoma.
