The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of 3 cycles of chemotherapy(CEV) in the treatment of Stage I enucleated retinoblastoma.
This clinical trial tests the safety and effectiveness of hypofractionated stereotactic radiosurgery for treating patients who have undergone surgical resection for grade II meningiomas or grade I meningiomas that have come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position a patient and precisely deliver radiation to tumors in the body. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor...
Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common type of cancer inside the eyes of adults. Almost half of all patients diagnosed with UM will eventually develop metastases. Once metastases occur, the median patient survival is short. In this trial, we will test if treatment with Melatonin after primary tumor diagnosis can prevent or delay the development of metastases. 100 patients diagnosed with primary UM will be randomized to either treatment with Melatonin tablets (20 mg at night), or to a control group. Both groups will be followed for 5 years. At 5 years, the number of patients that have developed metastases in the Melatonin and control groups will be compared (primary outcome...
The purpose of this study is to see if giving participants quisinostat will prevent participants' uveal melanoma tumor from spreading. The researchers want to find out the effects that quisinostat has on participants' condition.
At least 50% of patients with high-risk primary uveal melanoma will develop a recurrence following treatment of the primary tumour. Observation is currently the standard of care in the non-metastatic setting. Tebentafusp is the first agent proven to improve overall survival in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma in a randomized trial. Based on the results in the advanced setting, it is hypothesized that treatment with tebentafusp may reduce the risk of development of disease recurrence.
The purpose of this study is to assess rate of disease relapse and hazard rate of disease relapse after neoadjuvant therapy based on the statuses of pathologic complete response or non-pathologic complete response, and postoperative adjuvant therapy.
Postoperative Treatment of Unilateral Retinoblastoma After Primary Enucleation according to histopathological risk factors of the International Retinoblastoma Staging Working Group.
Background: A person s tumor is studied for mutations. When cells are found that can attack the mutation in a person s tumor, the genes from those cells are studied to find the parts that make the attack possible. White blood cells are then taken from the person s body, and the gene transfer occurs in a laboratory. A type of virus is used to transfer the genes that make those white blood cells able to attack the mutation in the tumor. The gene transfer therapy is the return of those white blood cells back to the person. Objective: To see if gene transfer therapy of white blood cells can shrink tumors. Eligibility: People with certain metastatic cancer for which...
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in combination with lymphodepletion and high-dose interleukin 2 (IL-2) has demonstrated reproducible objective response rates of approximately 50 percent in patients with highly advanced, refractory metastatic melanoma. Recent developments in theTIL ACT procedure facilitate the use of a reduced-intensity, non-myeloablative, lympho-depleting preparative regimen which is expected to be both less toxic and equally efficient compared to previous regimens. Recently patients recruited post Anti PD-1 therapy had inferior responses in comparison to the pre immune checkpoint inhibitors era. Therefore 2 new arms were...
To determine whether special tumor fighting cells that is taken from participants' tumors and grown in the laboratory and then given back to the participant will fight the participant's cancer when their immune system is suppressed from attacking these special tumor fighting cells. This is called transfer of autologous (they came from you) tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (the cells that have been grown in the laboratory. Participants getting these cell infusions will also be treated with interleukin-2 (IL-2).
