Active clinical trials for "Melanoma"

Influenza vaccination is indicated for all adults, but the immunogenicity of vaccination has not been assessed in all situations. We are conducting a prospective unblinded study of influenza vaccine recipients.

This is a Phase 1b, open-label, dose-escalation cohort study. The study will consist of a dose escalation assessment of the safety and tolerability of Mocetinostat administered concurrently in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab to patients with advanced melanoma. Treatment will be divided into induction and maintenance phases. It is anticipated that this clinical study will enable selection of the RP2D and dose schedule of this 3-drug combination for further clinical testing. The trial will include an assessment of the pharmacodynamic activity of Mocetinostat administered in combination with ipilimumab and nivolumab.

Adjuvant therapy with dabrafenib plus trametinib in melanoma was approved in 2018 by the EMA (EUropean Medicines Agency). The purpose of this non-interventional study is to assess the usage of adjuvant dabrafenib and trametinib in clinical practice, where the patient population may differ from study population.

This study is an open-label Phase 1/2 evaluation of CB-839 in combination with nivolumab in participants with clear cell renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and non-small cell lung cancer.

TiTAN-1 is a first-in-human study of GEN-011, an experimental treatment being evaluated in adult patients with advanced cancer. GEN-011 is a T cell therapy made specific to each patient, using the patient's own circulating immune cells. First, Genocea confirms which cancer proteins are recognized already by each patient's T cells using ATLAS™. Then, immune cells that recognize these cancer proteins are multiplied many times (a process called PLANET™) to create a personalized GEN-011 cell therapy, which is given back to the patient in one or more intravenous (IV) infusions.

The main purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of bempegaldesleukin plus nivolumab versus nivolumab in patients with completely resected Stage IIIA/B/C/D, or Stage IV cutaneous melanoma who are at high risk for recurrence.

This is an observational prospective study to estimate in real world conditions the effectiveness, the safety profile and the pattern of use of adjuvant nivolumab in adults participants with stage III/IV resected melanoma, and subsequent treatments administered in case of relapse.

This study is designed to estimate the effectiveness of nivolumab when given to participants after removing their cancer with surgery, over a 5-year follow-up, in real-world conditions in Australia.

The purpose of this trial is to assess the effect of vitamin D supplementation on recurrence in resected stage II melanoma patients.

Background: Recent cancer treatment studies have shown that altering a cancer patient's own white blood cells may help the immune system fight the cancer. In all of these studies, participants donate their own white blood cells through a procedure called leukapheresis, and the cells are altered in the laboratory and given back to the participants. After the cells are given, the patients receive aldesleukin (IL-2) to help the tumor fighting cells stay alive longer. For individuals with metastatic melanoma, pieces of melanoma proteins may be added to the collected white blood cells to help the immune system recognize and attack the cancer cells. Researchers are interested in testing a new process in which cells from fruit flies (Drosophila) are used to help the melanoma proteins attach to the white blood cells. The fruit fly cells die off shortly after the proteins are introduced to the white blood cells. Researchers are also interested in determining whether IL-2 treatment is necessary after this new cancer treatment process. Objectives: To test the safety and effectiveness of modified white blood cells (Drosophila-generated CTL) as a treatment for metastatic melanoma that has not responded to standard treatments. To determine whether IL-2 treatment improves the effectiveness of Drosophila-generated cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL). Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with metastatic melanoma that has not responded to previous IL-2 treatment. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical examination and medical history, tumor imaging studies, and heart and lung function tests. Prior to treatment, participants will have an intravenous catheter inserted into the chest to administer the study drugs. Participants will have leukapheresis to provide white blood cells for laboratory modification. Seven days before the start of the treatment, participants will be admitted to the hospital to have chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. These drugs will suppress the immune system to improve the effects of the treatment. One to four days after the last dose of chemotherapy, participants will receive the modified cells. Participants in the group that will receive IL-2 will begin to receive the treatment 24 hours after the cell infusion, every day for 5 days. All participants will receive filgrastim injections to help the body produce more white blood cells. Participants will recover in the hospital for about 7 to 12 days after the cell infusion or the last dose of IL-2. Participants will continue to receive medications and provide blood and tumor samples for testing. Participants will have regular followup visits to assess the effects of the treatment.
