Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

Purpose: This study is a single-arm, open-label phase II clinical trial testing the hypothesis that daily everolimus plus weekly vinorelbine and trastuzumab will be effective, safe, and tolerable among patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer brain metastases. Once enrolled, patients will receive everolimus PO daily in combination with weekly intravenous (IV) vinorelbine and trastuzumab. Cycles will be repeated every 3 weeks (21 days). At the time of progression, patients will come off study. Participants: Up to 35 adults over 21 with HER-2 positive breast cancer that has metastasized to the brain.

The purpose of this protocol is to allow continued treatment with conatumumab and/or ganitumab, with or without chemotherapy, to participants who completed a separate Amgen-sponsored conatumumab or ganitumab study without disease progression whose previous studies were closed.

PURPOSE: Cetuximab with platinum and 5FU is now the standard combination as first-line treatment in patients with metastatic or recurrent Head and Neck squamous cell carcinomas. Cetuximab and taxane combinations have demonstrated promising activity in Head and Neck cancer. This phase II trial is studying new cetuximab, docetaxel and cisplatin combination named TPEx as first-line treatment in this setting.

This is a Phase 1 study during which patients with advanced cancer will receive investigational study drug ARRY-382. Patients will receive increasing doses of study drug in order to achieve the highest dose of the study drug possible that will not cause unacceptable side effects. Patients will be followed to see what side effects and effectiveness the study drug has, if any, in treating the cancer. Approximately 50 patients from the US will be enrolled in this study.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of preoperative embolization in decreasing operative blood loss, decreasing the need for intraoperative transfusion and facilitate surgical resection in metastatic spine surgery. Furthermore the study aims at describing the vascularity in a series of spinal metastasis, and to correlate this with perioperative blood loss.

This is a phase I dose escalation study. Dose escalation will be via the traditional "up and down" scheme. SBRT: Patients will receive one of the following radiation regimens: 50 Gy in 5 fractions (10 Gy/fx) delivered over a 2-week period. 60 Gy in 5 fractions (12 Gy/fx) delivered over a 2-week period. 75 Gy in 5 fractions (15 Gy/fx) delivered over a 2-week period.

The aim of this study is to evaluate effectiveness of the Philips Sonalleve MR-HIFU device for the palliation of pain in patients with bone metastases. Magnetic Resonance Imaging-guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU) uses ultrasound to palliate pain caused by bone metastases. The main palliative mechanism of the method is due to local bone denervation, caused by the heat denaturation of the periosteum layer in the treated area. The importance of this therapy is that it offers a non-invasive, focal therapy, avoiding side-effects to surrounding normal tissue that occur with radiation therapy or the need for needle insertion as with radio-frequency(RF)ablation. The study hypothesis is that MR-HIFU will be effective in treating the pain associated with bone metastases

This is a Phase I, multi-center, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the clinical safety and immune response of IDC-G305 when injected intramuscularly in patients with unresectable or metastatic cancer. IDC-G305 is an immunotherapy consisting of recombinant NY-ESO-1 antigen and the adjuvant, GLA-SE. The goal is for IDC-G305 to stimulate the body's immune system to fight the spread and growth of cancer for patients whose tumors include the NY-ESO-1 protein. Patients with melanoma, ovarian, renal cell or non-small cell lung cancer may be considered for the trial.

This extension study of subjects previously enrolled in studies CTAP101-CL-3001 or CTAP101-CL-3002 allows long term evaluation of the safety and efficacy of CTAP101 Capsules in reducing elevated intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and correcting vitamin D insufficiency in stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease patients.

Phase I clinical trial of hypofractionated radiotherapy to an isolated index lesion in combination with the PD-1 inhibitor, Pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic cancers who have failed anti-PD-1 therapy (melanoma and NSCLC) and patients with metastatic cancers who have have progressed after at least one regimen of systemic therapy (breast, pancreas, and other).
