Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Merkel Cell"

Participants of this study will have a diagnosis of a solid tumor cancer that has come back to its original location or spread beyond its original location (advanced), came back (relapsed) or worsened (refractory) after standard treatments, or no standard treatments are available for the participants' cancer. The purpose of this study if to find the highest dose of MQ710 that causes few or mild side effects in participants with a solid tumor cancer diagnosis.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the response of Merkel cell carcinoma to pembrolizumab before surgery and to determine whether it further reduces the risk for disease recurrence. Another purpose of this study is to look at the side effects that occur when the experimental drug pembrolizumab is given to people with Merkel cell carcinoma before and after their standard of care surgery to remove the Merkel cell carcinoma.

30 minutes of moderate exercise on an arm ergometer, a cycle ergometer, or a treadmill prior to each administration of standard of care checkpoint blockade immunotherapy across all cycles

This study will test the use of comprehensive ablative radiation therapy (CART), with the immunotherapy drug avelumab, in people with Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) that has progressed after treatment and cannot be removed with surgery. The study researchers want to find out if CART works well when combined with avelumab.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether zirconium Zr 89 crefmirlimab berdoxam (other names 89Zr-crefmirlimab berdoxam, 89Zr-Df-crefmirlimab, 89Zr-Df-IAB22M2C) PET/CT can predict the response of advanced or metastatic melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, or non-small cell lung cancer tumors to immuno-oncology therapy.

This is a monocentric, prospective, pilot study that will enrol 435 subjects with solid tumours that are treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor(s) (ICI) alone or in combination with chemotherapy or targeted therapy. For enrolled subjects, clinical and laboratory evaluations will be performed and reported at different time points: Early (4-6 weeks after treatment start) Midtime (8-11 weeks after treatment start) Late (13-18 weeks after treatment start) At the occurrence of immune-related adverse events (irAEs), clinical and laboratory evaluation will be performed at two principal time points: For the 1st time of any grade 1 or 2 irAE if the subject developed it. For the 1st time of any grade 3 or 4 irAE if the subject developed it.

The purpose of this phase II clinical study is to test the good and bad effects of T-VEC (talimogene laherparepvec) with or without hypofractionated radiotherapy on people with melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, or other solid tumors with skin metastasis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of INCB099318 in select solid tumors.

This phase I trial studies how well tacrolimus, nivolumab, and ipilimumab work in treating kidney transplant recipients with cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Tacrolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving tacrolimus, nivolumab, and ipilimumab may work better in treating kidney transplant recipients with cancer compared to chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, or targeted therapies.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and how well nivolumab works when given together with radiation therapy or ipilimumab as adjuvant therapy in treating patients with Merkel cell cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body?s immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, gamma rays, neutrons, protons or other sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving nivolumab with radiation therapy or ipilimumab after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells.
