Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

Cancer that has spread to the brain, or brain metastasis, is difficult to treat. Meclofenamate is a drug which has been shown to reduce brain metastasis growth in the laboratory. This medicine has been used in the past to treat pain. But, in this study, it will be used to prevent new brain metastasis. This is the first time that meclofenamate will be used in patients with brain metastasis. This is a pilot study which means that the purpose of this study is to determine if a larger clinical trial of meclofenamate is possible in patients with brain metastasis. This study also aims to find out what effects, good and/or bad meclofenamate has on the patient and the cancer that has spread to the brain. The investigators also want to learn more about potential effects that this drug may have in the digestive system.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of hypofractionated radiosurgery in treating patients with large brain metastasis. Stereotactic radiosurgery can send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery may kill more tumor cells.

This is a non-randomized study, open label phase II study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate disease control rate (DCR) by RECIST and iRECIST at 12 weeks. Evaluation of RECIST and iRECIST will be done in each center in order to choose the optimal therapy (Assessment by Investigators). A centralized evaluation of RECIST and iRECIST, will be organized in Saint-Antoine.

This research study is studying stereotactic radiation (focused/pinpoint radiation that targets each individual tumor but not the surrounding brain) instead of whole-brain radiation (radiation targeting the entire brain) as a possible treatment for patients with small cell lung cancer and 1-10 brain metastases. The intervention involved in this study is: -Stereotactic (focused, pinpoint) radiation

This is a study in adults with various types of advanced cancer. The purpose of the study is to test a medicine called BI 754091 in combination with several other cancer medicines. BI 754091 is an immunotherapy. This means it may help the immune system fight cancer. Such therapies are also called immune checkpoint inhibitors. How long the participants are in the study depends on whether they benefit from treatment and whether they experience unacceptable side effects. The participants are put into different groups. Each group receives BI 754091 in combination with another medicine. The doctors check whether the tumors shrink or disappear. The doctors also check the general health of the participants.

This study is to find a safe dose of the combination of Avelumab and Whole Brain Radiotherapy (WBRT) in patients with Leptomeningeal Disease.

Primary Objective: Evaluate the effect of Hectorol® capsules in reducing elevated levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH). Secondary Objectives: Evaluate the safety profile of Hectorol® capsules versus Rocaltrol® (calcitriol) capsules. Determine the pharmacokinetic profile of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D2 after administration of Hectorol®.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of SNK01 (autologous natural killer cell), as a single agent and in combination with avelumab or pembrolizumab, for the treatment of subjects with advanced and/or metastatic refractory cancer that has failed three or more prior lines of conventional standard of care therapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) combined with checkpoint blockaded immunotherapy (CBI) will improve the response to the anticancer treatment compared to CBI alone in patients with advanced metastatic cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new radiation planning and treatment delivery technique called Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) and expiration technique. This technique will be used to treat patients who have tumors close to the chest wall and are candidates for Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT). This study will assess the reduction of radiation to the chest wall during treatment using this technique.
