This Phase I/II trial studies the ability to stop brain metastases from coming back after treatment with radiosurgery followed by surgical resection. It will also evaluate the side effects of these combined treatments and help determine the best radiosurgery dose. Radiosurgery focuses the x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to the normal tissue in the brain.
Acral melanoma is a melanoma that affects acral areas of the skin, which is the most prevalent site of melanoma in non-Caucasians.Data in this subgroup is scarce.This study is to evalueate the efficiency and safety of Neoadjuvant SHR-1210 plus apatinib in this particular group,menawhile to determine the predictive value for efficiency of several biomarkers.
This multicentre proof-of-concept study, involving 4 centers, aims to establish the value of fractionated neoadjuvant stereotactic radiotherapy (NaSRT) as a new treatment paradigm for brain metastases (BM) in the frame of the Czech neurooncology network. Most relevant studies published to date used single-fraction radiotherapy and dealt with the inherent bias related to their retrospective nature. The researchers aim to increase the level of evidence for this treatment paradigm together with other similar ongoing studies.
The main objective will be to estimate the disease free survival (DFS) of patients with resectable head and neck mucosal melanomas treated by neo-adjuvant anti-PD1 (in combination or not with lenvatinib) followed by surgery, radiotherapy and maintenance immunotherapy in order to compare it to historical DFS results of this kind of patients treated by surgery and radiotherapy. Our primary end-point will be disease-free survival at 2 years
Patients suffering from malignancies in advanced stages often develop brain metastases, which limit both the life span and the quality of life. Combining surgery and radiotherapy for resectable brain metastases is standard of care but there is a lot of controversy on which kind of radiotherapy is best suitable. Recently, first volumetric in-silico analyses point to theoretical advantages of neoadjuvant stereotactic radiotherapy of brain metastases. Special about this trial is the direct comparison between the three currently discussed radiotherapy options for resectable brain metastases: Neoadjuvant stereotactic radiotherapy, intraoperative radiotherapy and adjuvant stereotactic...
This is a single institution, open-label, multi-arm, phase I study assessing the safety and immunogenicity of a personalized neoantigen-based personalized DNA vaccine combined with PD-1 blockade therapy in subjects with newly diagnosed, MGMT promoter unmethylated glioblastoma (GBM). Immune checkpoint blockade, specifically those targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathways, has shown efficacy in multiple solid and hematologic malignancies. Furthermore, as has been demonstrated in metastatic melanoma, combining PD-1/PD-L1 blockade with other immune checkpoint inhibitors has shown improved objective response rates, though there is a significant increase in serious immune-related adverse...
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability, feasibility of the NeoPep Vaccine in newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GB) patients.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the safety and feasibility of giving a personalized DNA vaccine to people with brain tumors that have returned or have been resistant to treatment.
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a new treatment approach for patients with stage III or IV melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body but can still be surgically removed. The study combines two treatments: LTX-315 and pembrolizumab. Melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body can often be treated with surgery. Despite surgery, there is a high risk of the cancer coming back. Pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, can reduce this risk when given after surgery. Recent studies have shown that giving pembrolizumab before surgery, along with post-surgery treatment, might be more effective than giving it only after surgery. However,...
This research study is studying the drugs called NeoVax (a new type of personalized neoantigen vaccine) in combination with CDX-301 and Nivolumab or Pembrolizumab as a possible treatment for melanoma. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Personalized Neoantigen peptides (which combined with poly-ICLC make the vaccine NeoVax) - Poly-ICLC (Hiltonol) - CDX-301 - Nivolumab (Opdivo) - Pembrolizumab (Keytruda)
