Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the survival benefit of local therapy combination with target therapy in lung cancer brain metastases with EGFR mutation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is local therapy performed before or after target therapy would provide survival benefit ? What kind of local therapy combining with target therapy would provide survival benefit, neurosurgical resection or radiotherapy?

The study is being conducted to evaluate the tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of SHR6508 for Chinese patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism of chronic kidney disease treated by maintenance hemodialysis

The purpose of this study is to determine wether cobimetinib + vemurafenib combination treatment is effective in the treatment of BRAFV600-mutated melanoma patients with brain metastasis

This is a prospective open-labeled phase I trial based on a dose escalating study design assessing two dose levels of sirolimus when prescribed in combination with metronomic cyclophosphamide (CP), methotrexate (MT) and zoledronic acid (ZA) followed by an expansion cohort once the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) is established.

Patients having radiotherapy to their head and neck wear an immobilisation shell to prevent patient movement and improve treatment accuracy. These shells tend to cover the face and have the potential to cause anxiety and distress in patients, particularly if they suffer with claustrophobia or a similar fear. The study will use an 'open-face' shell that does not cover the face and compare this with the investigators' current 'closed-face' shell. The investigators will obtain treatment verification x-ray images to assess the daily set-up errors and compare these between the two shell type, and ask both patients and radiographers of their experiences from using the shells. Hypothesis: Open-face immobilisation shells offer equivalent accuracy and efficiency of radiotherapy delivery and are better accepted by patients and radiographers as compared to closed-face immobilisation shells for cranial radiotherapy.

This is a non-controlled, open label, Phase II Study of ipilimumab combined with a Stereotactic Radiosurgery. The study included an induction phase of four IV infusions of Ipilimumab at 10 mg/kg every 3 weeks associated with a stereotactic radiosurgery performed 3 days before 2nd ipilimumab administration. A Maintenance phase included Ipilimumab, IV, 10 mg/kg once every 12 weeks, starting at week 24, in the absence of PD, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent or disease progression. The primary objective is the overall survival. The Secondary objectives include safety, ORR, PFS and peripheral blood absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) as a predictive biomarker.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of adoptive transferring autologous IKDC-like cells

The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility and safety of combining stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and pedicle screw fixation in a 48-hour window for the treatment of painful unstable metastases of the thoracic and/or lumbar spine.

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. AGuIX particles may increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy by making tumor cells more sensitive to radiation. PURPOSE: This first-in-man Phase I trial will study the side effects and best dose of AGuIX when injected together with whole brain radiation therapy in treating patients with multiple brain metastases. The effectiveness of the combination of AGuIX and radiation therapy will be also assessed.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with metastatic breast cancer treated with margetuximab plus chemotherapy have longer progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) than patients treated with trastuzumab plus chemotherapy. A non-randomized sub-study cohort of approximately 88 patients will be enrolled to evaluate the safety of a reduced margetuximab infusion rate in patients receiving margetuximab either as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy.
