Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

Subject population：Patients with brain metastases from EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer who have not received systemic treatment. Experimental design: Single-center, single-arm phase II clinical trial. Purpose: Efficacy and safety of Anlotinib combined with Almonertinib in the treatment of patients with brain metastases from EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer. treatment plan: 1). Anlotinib: 12mg/time (BSA≥1.6 m2) or 10mg/time (BSA<1.6 m2), once a day orally, taking two weeks and stopping for one week; 2). Almonertinib: 110mg, orally once a day; primary endpoint: Intracranial progression-free survival (iPFS); secondary endpoint: Objective intracranial response rate (iORR=iCR+iPR), intracranial disease control rate (iDCR=iCR+iPR+i SD), overall progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), quality of life score.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety of TST003 in patients with cancer. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: What is the recommended dose patients can safely receive? How long does this drug remain in the body after administration? What are the side effects of this drug? Does your cancer respond to TST003? Participants on this study will get TST003 intravenously (through a needle into your vein), once every 3 weeks. You may need to come to the study site 2-4 times to have tests to see if you are eligible to be in the study before you begin to receive the study drug. After you start the study drug, you will need to return to the site several times after each dose so the physician can take vital signs, draw blood samples, and evaluate you for safety and wellbeing. Participants will continue taking the drug as long as they are receiving clinical benefit. At the end of your study participation, additional testing is required.

This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of pemetrexed and zanubrutinib (called induction therapy) followed by zanubrutinib treatment alone (also called maintenance therapy) in people who have relapsed or refractory (RR) primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) or isolated central nervous system relapse of B cell lymphoma (SCNSL). Assessments include how well people respond to this treatment, whether their disease gets better or worse, and their survival. Safety of this treatment and its side effects also will be assessed.

This study is designed to see if we can lower the chance of side effects from radiation in patients with breast, kidney, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma that has spread to the brain and who are also being treated with immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. This study will compare the usual care treatment of single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) given on one day versus fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS), which is a lower dose of radiation given over a few days to determine if FSRS is better or worse at reducing side effects than usual care treatment.

The occurrence of brain metastases (BMs) is increasing given the availability of a more accurate radiological imaging such as MRI for detecting also small brain lesions and the most effective systemic therapy able to control extracranial disease. Although, the new target therapy and immunotherapy has proven to be effective on brain metastasis too, a subgroup of patients shows prove themselves unresponsive to medical treatment. A further subgroup of patients exhibit diffuse brain disease for the presence of multiple brain lesion (>10 BMs) or leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. Among these patients the most treatment employed is represented by whole brain RT. Since the 1950s, whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) has been the most widely used treatment for patients with multiple brain metastases, given its effectiveness in palliation, widespread availability, and ease to delivery. However, the median overall survival recorded is restricted to 3 months, on the average. A better understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying brain metastasis might be expected to lead to improvements in the overall survival rate for these patients. Recent studies have revealed complex interactions between metastatic cancer cells and their microenvironment in the brain. Priego et al. describe that brain metastatic cells induce and maintain the co-option of a pro-metastatic program driven by signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in a subpopulation of reactive astrocytes surrounding metastatic lesions. In patients, active STAT3 in reactive astrocytes correlates with reduced survival from diagnosis of intracranial metastases. Blocking STAT3 signaling in reactive astrocytes reduces experimental brain metastasis from different primary tumor sources, even at advanced stages of colonization. Silibinin (or silybin) is a natural polyphenolic flavonoid isolated from seed extracts of the herb milk thistle (Silybum marianum). Silibinin has been shown to impair STAT3 activation. Preclinical studies show that Silibinin has an anticancer effects in vitro and in vivo. Based on this background, the investigators designed a double arm randomized trial evaluating the benefit of Silibinin (in the form of marketed supplement) associated to WBRT respect to WBRT alone.

This phase I/II trial tests the safety and side effects of psilocybin in combination with therapy for the treatment of patients with metastatic cancer and symptoms of anxiety and/or depression. Psilocybin is a substance being studied in conjunction with therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression in patients with cancer. In this study, the psilocybin being used is derived from the mushroom psilocybe cubensis using a patented process that results in a pharmaceutical grade version of psilocybin. Psilocybin acts by activating serotonin receptors on brain cells which can change perceptions and patterns of thinking in ways that may decrease anxiety.

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.

This is a phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CAR-T in patients with CD70-positive advanced/metastatic solid tumors, and to obtain the maximum tolerated dose of CAR-T and phase II Recommended dose.

This is a phase 3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in children with stage 3-4 chronic kidney disease (CKD), secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and vitamin D insufficiency.

The survival interval of patients with gliomas ranges between 12 to 15 months. Recent findings revealed that dietary interventions to reduce glucose and glycolytic pathways could have a therapeutic effect. Ketosis can be an effective therapy to extend the survival of patients with gliomas.
