Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Merkel Cell"

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and fluorouracil in treating patients with Merkel cell cancer.

FT500 is an off-the-shelf, iPSC-derived NK cell product that can bridge innate and adaptive immunity, and has the potential to overcome multiple mechanisms of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) resistance. The preclinical data provide compelling evidence supporting the clinical investigation of FT500 as monotherapy and in combination with ICI in participants with advanced solid tumors.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) and clinical activity of etrumadenant (AB928) in combination with zimberelimab (AB122) (an anti-PD-1 antibody) in participants with advanced malignancies.

This is a single arm, open-label, single center study evaluating the safety, feasibility, clinical efficacy and immunogenicity of GLA-SE administration to patients with Merkel cell carcinoma. Ten patients will be treated. The goal is for GLA-SE to assist the patient's own immune system in attacking the cancer cells.

RATIONALE: Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vinorelbine ditartrate, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving temsirolimus together with vinorelbine ditartrate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving temsirolimus and vinorelbine ditartrate together in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors.

This phase II trial is studying how well imatinib mesylate works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable Merkel cell cancer. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as BB-10901, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of BB-10901 in treating patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors.

Evaluation of the mechanism of Action of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in patients with locally advanced non-melanoma skin cancer.

This Phase I clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 4 mg doses of ITI-3000 in participants with polyomavirus-positive Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC).

This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1/2 study of the CTLA-4 antibody, tremelimumab, and the PD-L1 antibody, durvalumab (MEDI4736), in combination with the tumor microenvironment (TME) modulator poly-ICLC, a TLR3 agonist, in subjects with advanced, measurable, biopsy-accessible cancers.
