Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether deferoxamine (DFO) given intrathecally (directly into the CSF) is a safe treatment for people with leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumor cancer. The researchers will test different doses of DFO to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects. When the dose is found, they will test it in future participants to see whether DFO is a safe and effective treatment for people with leptomeningeal metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). They are also doing this study to see how the body absorbs, distributes, gets rid of, and responds to DFO.

A registry-based randomized phase II trial. A total of 46 patients with metastatic head and neck cancer on systemic therapy with oligoprogression to 1-5 extracranial lesions will be randomized using a 1:1 ratio to standard of care (begin next-line systemic therapy, best supportive care, continue current systemic line, based on treating physician decision) vs. receive stereotactic ablative radiotherapy to all oligoprogressive lesions while continuing their current systemic therapy.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) followed by surgical stabilization within 1 week. All participants will have metastatic cancer in the bone (bone metastases), and they will be at risk of pathologic fracture (broken bone caused by a disease). Another purpose of this study is to see if the treatment approach of SBRT followed by surgical stabilization within 1 week prevents cancer from returning to the bone.

Fractionated stereotatic radiation therapy (FSRT) that very precisely delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. The purpose of this study is to find out if FSRT is safe and effective in the treatment of metastatic spinal tumors of breast cancer.

Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an established local treatment method for patients with hepatic oligometastases. Liver metastases often occur in close proximity to radiosensitive organs at risk (OARs). This limits the possibility to apply sufficiently high doses needed for optimal local control. MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) is expected to hold potential to improve hepatic SBRT by offering superior soft-tissue contrast for enhanced target identification as well as the benefit of daily real-time adaptive treatment. The MAESTRO trial therefore aims to assess the potential advantages of adaptive, gated MR-guided SBRT (MRgSBRT) compared to conventional SBRT at a standard linac using an ITV (internal target volume) approach (ITV-SBRT).

This research is being done to compare quality of life and symptom burden in participants who receive two different types of radiation therapy (normal tissue sparing whole brain radiation therapy (NTS-WBRT) or standard of care hippocampal avoidance whole brain radiation Therapy (HA-WBRT). This research study involves: NTS-WBRT (normal tissue sparing whole brain radiation therapy) HA-WBRT (hippocampal avoidance whole brain radiation Therapy) Memantine standard of care drug

This is an open-label, non-randomised, phase II, multicenter clinical trial. 71 stage IV or recurrent, non-small cell lung cancer patients with synchronous brain metastases will be enrolled in this trial to evaluate the efficacy of Nivolumab plus Ipilimumab plus two cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy as first line treatment.

RATIONALE: It is now standard for most breast cancer patients with 1-2 positive sentinel nodes to avoid completion node dissection when eligibility criteria from the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group (ACOSOG) Z0011 trial are met. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recently proposed to extend this indication to patients that present with biopsy proven node positive disease if only 1 or 2 suspicious nodes are found on imaging, these positive nodes are not palpable clinically, and the other eligibility criteria from the Z0011 study are otherwise met. However, this recommendation is based on an expert consensus and no study has yet confirmed the optimal method to stage the axilla in this patient population. PURPOSE: Evaluate the technical success rate and accuracy of sentinel node biopsy (SNB) and the potential benefits of clipping and removing the biopsy proven node using radioactive seed localisation (RSL) (SNB+RSL = Targeted Axillary Dissection (TAD)) in patients with biopsy proven positive nodes, limited nodal disease in imaging and clinically negative axillary examination.

This is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label, multiple-dose, multi part, first in human study in adult subjects with specific advanced malignancies. The study is designed to systematically assess safety, and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity, clinical activity and to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for FS120 as a monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study with cohort expansion at the RP2D to evaluate safety and anti- tumor activity of Q702 administered orally.
