Active clinical trials for "Pancreatic Neoplasms"

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of M6620 and irinotecan hydrochloride in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). M6620 and irinotecan hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The main purpose of this study is to determine how best to combine hypofractionated radiotherapy, MEDI4736, and tremelimumab and to determine how safe and tolerable hypofractionated radiotherapy, MEDI4736, and tremelimumab are when given together in subjects with metastatic, melanoma, non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), breast cancer, and pancreatic cancer.

This is an open-label, multicenter, global Phase 2 basket study of entrectinib (RXDX-101) for the treatment of patients with solid tumors that harbor an NTRK1/2/3, ROS1, or ALK gene fusion. Patients will be assigned to different baskets according to tumor type and gene fusion.

This partially randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of disulfiram when given together with chemotherapy in treating patients with a solid tumor that does not respond to treatment (refractory) or pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and to compare whether disulfiram and chemotherapy may reduce tumor induced muscle loss. Weight loss occurs in pancreatic cancer patients and is common in a multitude of other cancers. Patients with metastatic cancer and weight loss sometimes are not able to receive treatment due to physical weakness or debility. Disulfiram is a potential inhibitor of muscle degradation and may reduce tumor induced muscle wasting. Disulfiram may also help chemotherapy work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether giving chemotherapy with or without disulfiram is a better treatment for refractory solid tumors or metastatic pancreatic cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well danvatirsen and durvalumab work in treating patients with pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body and does not respond to treatment. Danvatirsen may be used to block the production of proteins needed for tumor cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving danvatirsen and durvalumab may work better at treating pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer.

This study will enroll patients who have metastatic pancreatic cancer and have progressed on prior chemotherapy. Part 1 (dose escalation) participants will receive epacadostat/pembrolizumab/cyclophosphamide(CY)/GVAX pancreas vaccine followed by epacadostat/pembrolizumab/CRS-207, Part 1X (dose escalation) participants will receive epacadostat/pembrolizumab/CRS-207. Part 2X (dose expansion) participants will receive epacadostat/pembrolizumab/CRS-207. The primary objectives of this study are to determine the recommended dose of epacadostat in this combination and assess survival of subjects in both treatment groups.

Antroquinonol is proposed for the treatment of neoplasms. The proposed clinical trial is a Phase I/II study designed to evaluate antroquinonol in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in first line treatment naïve subjects with Stage IV metastatic pancreatic carcinoma. The first part of study will focus on the treatment of pancreatic cancer with 200 mg TID and 300 mg TID, clinical treatment duration of 4 weeks, to determine the MTD or MFD (based on PK and capsules strength) of antroquinonol in combination with a standard dose regimen of nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine. The extended Phase II will focus on the efficacy of antroquinonol with SOC. Safety and pharmacokinetic profiles will be studied in the proposed clinical trial.

Status - CLOSED TO PATIENT ENROLLMENT (CNPE) Patients who have pancreatic cancer that has come back or has not gone away after treatment, including the standard treatment for this disease or patients who are not eligible for or have elected not to receive standard of care chemotherapy, and patients who will have surgery after treatment for pancreatic cancer are eligible for this study. This is a research study using special immune system cells called tumor-associated antigen (TAA)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, a new experimental therapy. The proteins that are targeted in this study are called tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). These are cell proteins that are specific to the cancer cell. They do not show, or they show up in low quantities, on normal human cells. In this study, five common TAAs will be targeted. They are called NY-ESO-1, MAGEA4, PRAME, Survivin and SSX2. On a different study, patients have been treated and so far this treatment has shown to be safe. Investigators now want to try this treatment in patients with pancreatic cancer. These TAA-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (TAA-CTLs) are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. *Arm A and Arm B are closed to new patient enrollment.*

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of Hsp90 inhibitor XL888 when given together with pembrolizumab in treating patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancer that has spread to other places in the body. XL888 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Giving XL888 with pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with gastrointestinal cancer.

Invariant Natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a unique subset of lymphocytes that express homogeneous TCR recognizing KRN7000 which was up-regulated by many kinds of cancer cells. PD-1+CD8+T cells of patients with advanced tumor are most likely tumor-specified. Our hypothesis is that immunotherapy strategy of infusion of iNKT cells and PD-1+CD8+T cells may decrease the tumor burden and improve overall survival. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment of patients with advanced solid tumor by infusing of iNKT cells and PD-1+CD8+T cells.
