Extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma (EPSCC) or neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) is a rare but fatal disease. The prognosis of patients with advanced EPSCC or NEC failed platinum-etoposide chemotherapy is poor with median overall survival ranged 6 to 9 months. High expression levels of DLL3 has been demonstrated in many EPSCC or NEC. As tarlatamab, a bispecific T-cell engager with dual affinity for DLL3 on tumor cells and CD3 on T cells, has demonstrated clinically meaningful activity for patients with advanced small cell lung cancer. We thus hypothesize that tarlatamab also has clinically activity for patients with advanced EPSCC and NECs.
This study is being done to learn more about the drug tarlatamab in people with your condition. The purpose of this study is to see the efficacy (how well something works) of study treatment (tarlatamab) and whether it causes any side effects. Tarlatamab is being developed as an anti-cancer drug for tumors and is FDA-approved for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. Tarlatamab is investigational for the purpose of this study.
This is a phase II open-label, single-arm, multi-center study of tebentafusp in HLA- A*0201 positive previously untreated (1L) untreated metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) with an integrated circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) biomarker.
We will conduct a multicenter, open label phase I/ II trial to assess the safety and clinical efficacy of tebentafusp-tebn in combination with liver-directed therapies in HLA-A*0201 positive patients with metastatic uveal melanoma. In Part 1 of the study, we will investigate the safety and efficacy of tebentafusp-tebn in combination with hepatic IE in patients with a low to moderate hepatic disease burden. In Part 2, we will investigate the efficacy of tebentafusp-tebn in combination with TACE in patients with bulky hepatic disease.
This phase II trial compares the safety and effect of temozolomide combined with survivin long peptide vaccine (SurVaxM) to temozolomide alone in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and is growing, spreading or getting worse (progressing). Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor growth. Survivin, a protein, is expressed in 50% of patients that have neuroendocrine tumors and, is associated with poor outcomes. SVN53-67/M57-KLH peptide vaccine...
The purpose of the CCANED-CIPHER study is to develop and validate an AI-based blood test for early cancer detection and to monitor treatment effectiveness in cancer patients. This two-phase, multi-center observational study aims to identify specific transcriptomic biomarkers in platelets and immune cells that distinguish cancer patients from healthy individuals and correlate with treatment outcomes. By analysing blood samples using artificial intelligence, the study seeks to create a safe, non-invasive method to enhance cancer diagnosis and monitor treatment responses over time.
The study of investigators indicated that TMZ can up-regulate dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) expression, and mediates Ferroptosis inhibition and chemoresistance of GBM. The clinical data also proved that the DRD2 expression in recurrent GBM is significantly higher than that in primary GBM. Moreover, the DRD2 antagonist haloperidol can attenuate the above function of DRD2, and increase the sensitivity of GBM to the TMZ by inducing fatal autophagy and ferroptosis. In xenograft mice, the combined usage of haloperidol and Temozolomide (TMZ) can significantly inhibit tumor growth and increase overall survival. The investigators' findings have been published in Clinical cancer research....
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in patients with supratentorial brain tumours. The main questions it aims to answer is: Can short-term preoperative walking exercise protect cognitive function in the short term after craniotomy in patients with supratentorial brain tumor and reduce the incidence of surgery-related complications? Participants will be asked to receive general care and regular walking exercises prior to surgery. Researchers will compare patients who receive only general care before surgery to see if preoperative walking exercise has an effect on postoperative prognosis.
This study is being conducted to explore the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant toripalimab combined with temozolomide in resectable stage III melanoma.
The pineal region and brainstem tumors are located at the central position of the cranial cavity, surrounded by important neural structures and venous systems, leading to challenges in preoperative diagnosis, adding uncertainty and complexity to treatment. For a long time, surgical treatment of pineal region and brainstem tumors has been one of the most challenging areas in neurosurgery. With the development of neuroendoscopy and virtual endoscopy technologies, how to convert complex three-dimensional bone, vascular, and neural images into virtual endoscopic images and how to combine virtual endoscopy with neuro-navigation for endoscopic skull base surgery to provide...
