This is a multicenter, single-arm, phase II clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Cadonilimab combined with gemcitabine, or vinorelbine, or pemetrexed in the treatment of patients with recurrent / refractory pleural mesothelioma.
Mesothelioma
Delayed Care for Mesothelioma Could be Beneficial for Patients
Mesothelioma, a cancer mainly caused by asbestos, is very hard to treat. A new study wanted to see if treating mesothelioma immediately is the best option for certain patients. The study, which was published in Clinical Lung Cancer, looks at patients with inoperable pleural mesothelioma. The study compared patients who[…]
Surgery Improves Survival in Mesothelioma Patients
There is a debate about whether surgery for mesothelioma is beneficial. A new study was presented at the World Conference on Lung Cancer. The study looked at the survival of pleural mesothelioma patients who had different types of treatment. These included chemotherapy followed by surgery and chemotherapy only. The goal[…]
Methoxyamine, Cisplatin, and Pemetrexed Disodium in Treating Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors or Mesothelioma That Cannot Be Removed by Surgery or Mesothelioma That Is Refractory to Pemetrexed Disodium and Cisplatin or Carboplatin
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of methoxyamine when given together with cisplatin and pemetrexed disodium and to see how well it works in treating patients with solid tumors or mesothelioma that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with standard treatment (advanced), or mesothelioma that does not respond to pemetrexed disodium and cisplatin or carboplatin (refractory). Methoxyamine may shrink the tumor and may also help cisplatin and pemetrexed disodium work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and pemetrexed disodium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving methoxyamine together with cisplatin and pemetrexed disodium may be a better treatment for solid tumors or mesothelioma than methoxyamine and pemetrexed disodium.
A Study of Oral 7HP349 (Alintegimod) in Combination With Ipilimumab Followed by Nivolumab Monotherapy
Primary Outcome Measures Number of participants treated with Alintegimod monotherapy with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAEv5.0 Number of participants treated with Alintegimod in combination with treatment related adverse events as assessed by CTCAEv5.0 Define RPTDs for Alintegimod Secondary Outcome Measures Characterize Pharmacokinetics of Alintegimod monotherapy by measuring[…]
A Study of Oral 7HP349 (Alintegimod) in Combination With Ipilimumab Followed by Nivolumab Monotherapy
This study is an open-label Phase Ib (Part A) dose escalation followed by a blinded, randomized, multi cohort Phase 2a (Part B) comparison of combination vs. reference regimens.
Currently study will only be enrolling the Phase 1b and the Phase 2a protocol requirements will be added to the study near completion of the Phase 1b
Exposure to Asbestos With BAP1 Mutation Increases Risk of Mesothelioma
In a study presented today at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting 2024, researchers at Fox Chase Cancer Center showed that mice with a BAP1 germline mutation, after exposure to small levels of asbestos, had a greater chance of developing malignant mesothelioma. The study is being published in[…]
A Phase 1a/1b Study of ACTM-838 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
This is a first in human (FIH) 2-part study using ACTM-838 in patients with advanced solid tumors resistant to standard of care treatment. Part 1a will evaluate dose escalation and Part 1b will evaluate dose expansion.
Exercise to Boost Immunity in Advanced Cancer (BICEP)
The trial is a prospective feasibility trial conducted in Sheffield. Recruitment will include twenty patients receiving first line palliative immunotherapy for advanced, unresectable or metastatic mesothelioma and patients receiving first line systemic anti-cancer treatment for pancreatic cancer. Patients will attend the AWRC for a supervised exercise session once a week to include aerobic exercise along with an unsupervised weekly exercise session for 3 months. Blood samples will be collected at baseline and then monthly for 3 months, pre and post the supervised exercise session. Cytokine, myokine and immune cell concentration will be analysed using cytokine bead-based multiplex immune assays and RNA-seq to full profile changes in gene and protein expression
NM32-2668 in Adult Patients With Selected Advanced Solid Tumors
This is a first-in-human, open-label, multi-center, Phase 1, dose-escalation study with expansion cohorts to evaluate NM32-2668 for safety and immunogenicity, to determine the maximal tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose, define the pharmacokinetics, to explore the pharmacodynamics, and to obtain preliminary evidence of the clinical activity in adult patients with selected advanced solid tumors.
