Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

Liver is the most common site of metastases from colorectal cancer. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with targeted agents is usually recommended for borderline-resectable liver metastases that are technically difficult to resect for conversion to resectable disease and control of metastatic spread. However, the prognosis of these patients are still poor, and long term disease-free survival over 3 years is rare and <20%. More effective measures to prevent recurrence are needed before or after resection of colorectal liver metastases.

This research study is studying Pembrolizumab as a possible treatment for this diagnosis for metastases in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord).

This is a study measuring toxicity while making observations about the survival benefits of treating participants with oligometastatic disease using stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR).

Prospective, Basket, Open-label, Multi-dose, Single-arm, Simon's two-stage, Multi-center trial Study drug : neratinib + herzuma (trastuzumab biosimilar)

This is a prospective, investigator-initiated, phase II, multicentre-study, investigating the efficacy and toxicity of definitive SABR of osseous oligometastases, when pragmatically introduced into a daily clinical setting.

A multicenter randomized phase II trial of stereotactic body radiotherapy for oligo-progressive metastatic cancers. Eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:2 ratio between receiving their standard of care therapy or stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) to all sites of oligo-progressive lesions.Radiotherapy will be administered as soon as possible following randomization, and subjects will be followed until next disease progression. The primary outcome is progression-free survival (PFS).

This is a multicentric randomized parallel group open trial comparing 5-year survival of chemotherapy followed by LT (Group LT+C) versus chemotherapy alone (Group C) in patients with confirmed unresectable liver-only metastases, well controlled by chemotherapy (no progression) and extensively explored by modern imaging techniques. The primary objective of the trial is to validate in a large multicentric cohort of selected patients the possibility to obtain at least 50% 5-years survival with LT combined to chemotherapy compared to around 10% with chemotherapy alone.

This phase II trial studies how well giving a JAK inhibitor before a donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with myelofibrosis that developed without another condition (primary) or evolved from other bone marrow disorders (secondary). JAK inhibitors are a class of drugs that may stop the growth of abnormal cells by blocking an enzyme needed for cell growth. Giving a JAK inhibitor such as ruxolitinib before a donor stem cell transplant may help reduce symptoms of myelofibrosis such as inflammation and enlargement of the spleen, improve the patient's general physical condition, and prevent complications from occurring after the transplant. Infusing healthy stem cells from a donor into the patient may help the patient's bone marrow work normally and make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Giving a JAK inhibitor before a donor stem cell transplant may help improve transplant outcomes in patients with myelofibrosis.

Radiotherapy to the whole brain is standard treatment for cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases) as it treats both the metastases that can be seen on scans and the brain metastases that are too small to be seen on scans. This study will use a novel radiotherapy technique, called volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), to treat patients with brain metastases. This technique allows delivery of both a standard radiation dose to the whole brain as well as a higher radiation dose to the brain metastases at the same time. The study will assess the effectiveness of using VMAT in treating brain metastases, and examine its potential side-effects.

Investigators designed a phase II study to evaluate safety and efficacy of lung and liver stereotactic radiation therapy (SRT) in oligometastatic breast cancer patients unsuitable for surgery, using VMAT RapidArc approach.
