Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

This is an open label trial to assess the efficacy of MBM-02 (Tempol) as a treatment for patients diagnosed with prostate cancer in biochemical recurrence.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of SHR8008 capsule In Subjects With Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

Prospectively evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CD19/CD20 dual-target CAR-T cells in the treatment of relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma .

According to clinical guidelines, endoscopic surgery (mono- or bipolar TURBT, laser resection, en bloc resection) is a standard treatment option for patients with primary non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) (excluding carcinoma in-situ). However, more than half of patients will experience local recurrence after surgery. It is believed that one of the main causes for this local recurrence is the reimplantation of tumor cells during endoscopic surgery. It is crucial to limit contact between the resected tumor and the bladder wall during the operation and to extract the specimen as quickly as possible. In the case of a small tumor, the surgeon can immediately remove it using an endoscopic instrument. There are a number of methods available for removing large tumors, but it is not yet clear which one is most optimal. Therefore, comparing the oncological results from evacuating bladder tumors using various methods is very timely. Based on the previously mentioned studies, the investigators assume that the rate of bladder cancer relapse out site of the resection area would be lower in the morcellation group compared with piecemeal resection of the tumor. In order to prove this, the investigators plan to conduct a randomized study comparing the relapse rate in these two groups.

Near-infrared fluorescence-guided oncologic surgery (EGOS) with the use of a tumor specific tracer (SGM-101) developed by Surgimab can provide valuable intra-operative information about tumor location and extensiveness, which can be difficult to detect with conventional visual and tactile feedback. Hence, this information could aid in intra-operative decision making and therewith foster complete resection margins and less extensive surgery. Subsequently, this may drastically improve patient care by improving oncologic outcome.

This is a single-arm, multicenter, phase 2 study to assess the efficacy and safety of Toripalimab Injection (JS001) in patients with advanced recurrent or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who have failed at least 2 prior lines of therapy and are positive for specific markers. Patients who meet the requirements will be treated with Toripalimab injection 240 mg once every 3 weeks (q3w) until disease progression based on imaging according to RECIST 1.1 criteria judged by the investigator, or intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of informed consent, or withdrawal of treatment judged by the investigator, or voluntarydiscontinuation of treatment by the patient with CR of more than 6 months, or up to 2 years of treatment for JS001, whichever occurs first. For the case that the patient shows disease progression on imaging according to RECIST 1.1, as long as the investigator judges that the patient can still benefit from continued medication, the treatment with Toripalimab Injection can be continued until the progression on imaging assessed by the investigator for the second time. The clinical benefit is based on the results of comprehensive assessment by the investigator in combination with imaging findings and clinical condition when the patient has no intolerable toxicity or the symptoms worsen due to disease progression. Tumor assessments are performed at screening (as the baseline), every 6 weeks from the first dose in the first year, and every 9 weeks from the second year until radiologically documented progressive disease (PD), or second disease progression judged by the investigator (for patients with disease progression shown by first imaging, but who can continue treatment judged by the investigator), or withdrawal of informed consent by the patient, or loss to follow-up, or start of a new anti-tumor therapy, or the termination of the study. If a patient withdraws from the study for reasons other than disease progression (including due to the AE or because the treatment interval is beyond the window) and no disease progression occurs at the time of withdrawal, radiographic assessments should be continued until disease progression, death, or start of a new anti-tumor therapy. Patient medication management is based on the investigator's tumor assessment.

Ocular toxoplasmosis (OT) is a major cause of visual impairment worldwide. OT is responsible for 30 to 50% of posterior uveitis. It is characterized by dormant infections that may reactivate without known reasons, causing severe irreversible visual loss. The overall recurrence rate of OT in Europe is greater than 80% for patients and may range from one episode to 11 episodes (1% of OT) in the most extreme cases. Current treatments do not reduce the risk of recurrences and the risk of toxoplasmosis recurrence cannot be predicted in these immunocompetent patients. These clinical and biological expression changes might be related to an individual genetic susceptibility of each patient. The advanced analysis of the entire genome now possible to consider the project.

This research trial studies the mechanisms of idelalisib-associated diarrhea in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, indolent non-hodgkin lymphoma, or small lymphocytic lymphoma that has come back after a period of improvement. The cancer treatment drug idelalisib triggers diarrhea in some patients. Studying stool, blood, and tissue samples in the lab from patients who are given idelalisib may help doctors learn more about the side effects and may help to treat them in future patients.

Myeloma patients who relapse after prior treatment with bortezomib and lenalidomide have survival of less than 1 year. A number of new drugs have been approved for the treatment of relapse myeloma in the last couple of years, including, Elotuzumab, Panobinostat, Ixazomib, carfilzomib and Pomalidomide. However, most of these drugs either do not have good single agent activity or still belongs to the category of immunomodulatory drugs or proteasome inhibitors. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody against CD38 that is highly expressed on myeloma plasma cells. In phase ½ studies, it has impressive single agent activity in relapse and refractory myeloma with a very acceptable toxicity profile. This set the stage for combinations with daratumumab to increase efficacy and improve outcome of patients with myeloma. The use of immunomodulatory drugs, such as thalidomide and lenalidomide, has been shown to augment NK cell activity. NK cells are important mediator of antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity. We therefore hypothesize that the combination of Daratumumab with thalidomide may therefore improve the efficacy of the treatment. In this study, we will plan to perform a phase II trial using the Daratumumab, Thalidomide, Dexamethasone combination in 100 myeloma patients with relapse myeloma in Asia.

Myeloma patients who relapse after prior treatment with bortezomib and lenalidomide have survival of less than 1 year. Recently, a randomized study of Pomalidomide and dexamethasone conducted in compared with placebo and dexamethasone showed that pomalidomide can improve survival of this group of patients. As a result, pomalidomide is now approved by the FDA and EMA for use in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma previously treated with bortezomib and lenalidomide. We have conducted a study using Pomalidomide plus Dexamethasone (PD) in Asian patients, which showed good efficacy and safety profile. More important for patients with suboptimal response to PD will achieve a clinically meaningful response with the addition of oral cyclophosphamide (PCD). In the United States, a small randomised phase 2 study of PCD versus PD showed that PCD have a higher response rates, produce deeper response and correspondingly longer progression free survival. There is till date no randomised phase 3 study between these regimens. This will be important to determine what is the best combination including pomalidomide for use in relapse myeloma.
