Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

This phase II trial studies the effect of stereotactic radiosurgery and pembrolizumab in treating patients with meningioma that has come back (recurrent). Stereotactic radiosurgery is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. It is used to treat brain tumors and other brain disorders that cannot be treated by regular surgery. Pembrolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody. An antibody is a common type of protein made in the body in response to a foreign substance. Antibodies attack foreign substances and protect against infection. Antibodies can also be produced in the laboratory for use in treating patients; an antibody that is made in the lab is also known as a humanized monoclonal antibody. Pembrolizumab is a highly selective humanized monoclonal antibody that is designed to block the action of the receptor PD-1. It has been studied in lab experiments and in other types of cancer. The PD-1 receptor works to keep the immune system from noticing tumor cells. The addition of pembrolizumab to stereotactic radiosurgery may improve the progression free survival of patients with meningioma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sorafenib maintenance after allo-HSCT in FLT3-negative acute leukemia patients.

This is a multi-centers, single-arm, open label, Phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CD7 CAR T cells in subjects with relapsed or refractory T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. Seventy subjects will be enrolled. CD7 CAR T cells will be given once intravenously at one dose (1×106, with an allowance of ± 20%) in patients received previous HSCT donor-derived CAR T cells. Patients who received fresh donor derived CD7 CAR T cells were given initial dose of 1×106, with an allowance of ± 20%. The dose levels may be adjusted during the study based on the specific number of cells on the day of fresh CAR T cells infusion, due to at this time all the patients have completed lymphodepleting, so we adopt the allowance of ±20% for each group of absolute infusion cells. And patients who were lower than the designed dose group were also given infusion, but they will be either assigned to the lower dose group or exclude from safety analysis of designed dose group.

This early phase I trial studies how well heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy with doxorubicin and cisplatin work for the treatment of abdominal or pelvic tumors that can be removed by surgery (resectable), does not respond to treatment (refractory), or has come back (recurrent). Heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy is a procedure performed in combination with abdominal surgery for cancer that has spread to the abdomen. It involves the infusion of a heated chemotherapy solution that circulates into the abdominal cavity. Chemotherapy drugs, such as doxorubicin and cisplatin, 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. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the abdomen may kill more cells.

This is a phase 2 study that will assess the investigational drug, cabozantinib, in patients with liver cancer (specifically hepatocellular carcinoma) and who had received a liver transplant as a part of curative care, but the cancer has come back (recurred). The purpose of this study is to see how useful cabozantinib is in controlling the disease of these patients. Cabozantinib blocks the function of various proteins found on the surface of the body's cells (called receptor tyrosine kinases) that are important in the development of cancer tumors. All participants will receive cabozantinib until they are no longer receiving benefit from the study drug or they experience an intolerable side effect.

The purpose of this trial is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of hypofractionated IMPT for the reirradiation of locoregionally recurrent rectal cancer.

This clinical trial evaluates the side effects and possible benefits of operating on brain tumors prior to the tumor coming back (recurrence). Understanding when surgery is most useful to patients with brain tumors is important. Some patients may undergo chemotherapy or radiation but still have visible tumor remaining after treatment. The purpose of this research is to compare outcomes of those who have surgery after chemotherapy or radiation, but prior to tumor recurrence, to those who have surgery at a different time, or no surgery at all.

This phase Ib/II trial best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of omacetaxine and venetoclax in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and have a genetic change RUNX1. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as omacetaxine, 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. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Giving omacetaxine and venetoclax may help to control the disease.

This phase II trial studies how well Pemigatinib (an orally administered inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor receptors 1, 2, and 3) works in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients with recurrent tumors and a prior history of low- or intermediate-risk NMIBC tumors. Participants will receive pemigatinib for 4-6 weeks prior to standard of care transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT).

This is a Phase I/Ib dose escalation, dose expansion, study to evaluate the safety and identify the recommended dose of modified immune cells PRGN-3005 (autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells developed by Precigen, Inc.) in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has spread to other places in the body, that has come back and is resistant to platinum chemotherapy. Autologous CAR T cells are modified immune cells that have been engineered in the laboratory to specifically target a protein found on tumor cells and kill them.
