Expanded access for participants with cancer with RET activation who are ineligible for an ongoing selpercatinib (also known as LOXO-292) clinical trial or have other considerations that prevent access to selpercatinib through an existing clinical trial.
The treating physician/investigator contacts Lilly when, based on their medical opinion, a patient meets the criteria for inclusion in the expanded access program.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy that uses a 3-dimensional image of the tumor to help focus thin beams of radiation directly on the tumor, and giving radiation therapy in higher doses over a shorter period of time, may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. It is not yet known which regimen of chemotherapy given together with radiation therapy is more effective in treating pancreatic cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is comparing the side effects of two regimens of gemcitabine and capecitabine given together with radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.
This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with progressive metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CCI-779, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
This is an open label, phase II trial study of adjuvant GVAX pancreas vaccine in patients with pancreatic cancer.
To seek preliminary evidence of antitumor activity (progression free survival) of Erlotinib in combination with standard adjuvant chemoradiation and chemotherapy in patients with resected adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.
Prospective, multi-center, open label, non-randomized clinical trial to assess efficacy of [18F]FAPI-74 to detect FAP expressing cells in patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, gastric, pancreatic and colorectal cancer. The [18F]FAPI-74 PET scan will be acquired in patients with proven GI cancers after initial staging using institutional standard methods. The PET scan results will be compared to FAP immunohistochemistry (as the primary objective) and histopathology (as the secondary objective) of the biopsied or resected tissues.
Background:
In a new cancer therapy, researchers take a person s blood, select a certain white blood cell to grow in the lab, and then change the genes of these cells using a virus. The cells are then given back to the person. This is called gene transfer. For this study, researchers will modify the person s white blood cells with anti-CD70.
Objectives:
To see if a gene transfer with anti-CD70 cells can safely shrink tumors and to be certain the treatment is safe.
Eligibility:
Adults age 18 and older diagnosed with cancer that has the CD70-expressing cancer.
Design:
Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, scans, and other tests. They may by admitted to the hospital. Leukapheresis will be performed. For this, blood is removed through a needle in the arm. A machine separates the white blood cells. The rest of the blood is returned through a needle in the other arm.
Eligible participants will have an intravenous catheter placed in their upper chest. Over several days, they will get chemotherapy drugs and the anti-CD70 cells. They will recover in the hospital.
Participants will take an antibiotic for 6 months after treatment. They will repeat leukapheresis.
Participants will visit the clinic every 1-3 months for the first year after treatment, every 6 months for the second year, and then as determined by their physician. Follow-up visits will take 1-2 days. At each visit, participants will have lab tests, imaging studies, and a physical exam.
Throughout the study, blood will be taken and participants will have many tests to determine the size and extent of their tumor and the treatment s impact.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vaccines made from peptides may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) together with vaccine therapy may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy is more effective with or without vaccine therapy in treating pancreatic cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying gemcitabine, capecitabine, and vaccine therapy to see how well they work compared with gemcitabine and capecitabine alone in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Pancreatic cancer is the 8th most prevalent cancer in Korea, and its 5-year overall survival rate has shown less than 10% due to its dismal prognosis. To date, the only curative treatment of pancreatic cancer is surgical resection. However, about 60% of patients with pancreatic cancer have been diagnosed as a locally advanced unresectable or metastatic disease at diagnosis owning to its difficulty in the early detection of cancer. The 5-year survival rate has been reported to be less than 25% even with surgical resection. Considering the high rate of metastasis and recurrence, systemic chemotherapy is essential to prolong survival. Therefore, Using AI platforms of RAPTOR (RNA expression-based Anti-symmetrical Pairing Tool for On-demand Response) and ReDRUG (Restoration using the drug for targeting unbalanced gene) developed by Oncocross, Chlorphenesin carbamate, and Hydroxychloroquine were discovered as candidate drugs having anti-metastatic effects.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine and chlorphenesin carbamate in combination with mFOLFIRINOX in patients with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer.
This is a multi-centre, investigator-initiated, dose escalation, Phase I trial of the combination of the FAK inhibitor, Defactinib (VS-6063), and the dual RAF/MEK inhibitor, VS-6766 (RO5126766) in patients with advanced solid tumours. VS-6766 (RO5126766) is the same compound as CH5126766.
There are two parts to this study, the dose escalation phase and the dose expansion phase. In the dose escalation phase, cohorts of 3 to 6 patients will be enrolled to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D). This will be followed by a dose expansion phase to further characterise the safety and tolerability and to assess the pharmacodynamic activity of the combination.
