NCT03164057
The overall aim of this study is to determine if epigenetic priming with a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor (DMTi) prior to chemotherapy blocks is tolerable and carries evidence of a clinical efficacy signal as determined by minimal residual disease (MRD), event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS). Tolerability for each of the agents, as well as total reduction in DNA methylation and outcome assessments will be done to simultaneously obtain preliminary biological and clinical data for each DMTi in parallel. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: * Evaluate the tolerability of five days of epigenetic priming with azacitidine and decitabine as a single agent DMTi prior to standard AML chemotherapy blocks. * Evaluate the change in genome-wide methylation burden induced by five days of epigenetic priming and the association of post-priming genome-wide methylation burden with event-free survival among pediatric AML patients. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES * Describe minimal residual disease levels following Induction I chemotherapy in patients that receive DMTi. * Estimate the event-free survival and overall survival of patients receiving a DMTi prior to chemotherapy courses.
NCT03824327
This phase I trial studies the side effects and how well papaverine hydrochloride and stereotactic radiation therapy body (SBRT) work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Papaverine hydrochloride may help radiation therapy work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the radiation therapy. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method can kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving papaverine hydrochloride with SBRT may work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT04262843
This phase II trial studies how well total marrow and lymphoid irradiation works as a conditioning regimen before hematopoietic cell transplantation in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute leukemia. Total body irradiation can lower the relapse rate but has some fatal side effects such as irreversible damage to normal internal organs and graft-versus-host disease (a complication after transplantation in which donor's immune cells recognize the host as foreign and attack the recipient's tissues). Total body irradiation is a form of radiotherapy that involves irradiating the patient's entire body in an attempt to suppress the immune system, prevent rejection of the transplanted bone marrow and/or stem cells and to wipe out any remaining cancer cells. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a more recently developed method of delivering radiation. Total marrow and lymphoid irradiation is a method of using IMRT to direct radiation to the bone marrow. Total marrow and lymphoid irradiation may allow a greater dose of radiation to be delivered to the bone marrow as a preparative regimen before hematopoietic cell transplant while causing less side effects to normal organs than standard total body irradiation.
NCT06043011
The purpose of the project is to set up a national, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter registry platform to document uniform data on characteristics, molecular diagnostics, treatment and course of disease, to collect patient-reported outcomes and to establish a decentralized biobank for patients with hematological malignancies in Germany.
NCT07073794
This phase II trial evaluates the impact of cancer therapy in the patients' home compared to in the clinic on safety, side effects, patient preference, and satisfaction in Black men with prostate cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), that has increasing prostate-specific antigen after treatment (biochemically recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Typically drug-related cancer care is conducted at a medical center which causes patients to have to spend considerable time away from family, friends, and familiar surroundings. This separation may add to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families during this difficult time in their lives. Therapy administered to a patient in the patients' residence in the comfort of familiar surrounding using Cancer Connected Access and Remote Expertise (CARE) Beyond Walls (CCBW) may help reduce psychological and financial distress, increase access to care and improve treatment compliance. Giving cancer therapy in the home compared in the clinic may be safe, tolerable and improve patient satisfaction with overall cancer care in Black men with locally advanced, biochemically recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer.
NCT07371611
This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized phase III clinical trial evaluating perioperative treatment with sintilimab combined with chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma. Despite standard treatment with surgery followed by postoperative radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, patients with locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma remain at high risk of recurrence or metastasis. Recent evidence, including results from the KEYNOTE-689 study, suggests that perioperative immunotherapy may improve survival outcomes, and this approach has been incorporated into NCCN guidelines. Combining immunotherapy with chemotherapy may further improve prognosis in this patient population. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group or a control group. The experimental group will receive neoadjuvant sintilimab combined with chemotherapy followed by surgery and postoperative treatment based on pathological response. Patients with major pathological response (MPR) will receive adjuvant sintilimab, while patients without MPR will receive postoperative radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with sintilimab. The control group will receive standard treatment consisting of surgery followed by postoperative radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy as clinically indicated. The primary objective of the study is to compare event-free survival between the two groups. Secondary objectives include overall survival, pathological response, safety, and treatment-related adverse events. The results of this study may help optimize perioperative treatment strategies and improve outcomes for patients with locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma.
NCT07371663
This is a Phase Ib/II clinical study. The Phase Ib dose-escalation study aims to evaluate and determine the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of TCC1727 in combination with benmelstobart /olaparib /topotecanfor patients with advanced solid tumors. The Phase II expansion study will assess the efficacy and safety of TCC1727 combined with benmelstobart /olaparib/topotecanin selected advanced solid tumor indications. The study pre-specifies three treatment combinations, with Combination 1 (TCC1727 + benmelstobart) being prioritized for initial evaluation. The decision to proceed with Combination 2 and Combination 3will be based on clinical data from Combination 1.
NCT07373964

The primary objective is to assess Progression-Free Survival (PFS) per RECIST v1.1. Secondary objectives include Objective Response Rate (ORR), Disease Control Rate (DCR), Duration of Response (DOR), Overall Survival (OS), and safety. Approximately 36 participants will receive induction therapy (Chidamide + chemotherapy + PD-L1 inhibitor) for 4 cycles, followed by Chidamide maintenance until progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT07374003
This is a Phase II, single-arm clinical study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ipromlimab combined with Tuvonralimab, plus Albumin-Bound Paclitaxel and Nedaplatin, as neoadjuvant therapy for patients with locally advanced resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
NCT07374146
This project aims to address the need for individualized precision therapy for hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) in extremely preterm infants by integrating clinical biomarker screening with the design of a targeted drug-delivery system, and advancing early prediction and targeted intervention in a stepwise manner. Infants born at \<32 weeks' gestational age will be enrolled. Multi-time-point blood samples and relevant clinical parameters will be systematically collected, with a focus on measuring cardiac function biomarkers (NT-proBNP), inflammatory cytokines (IL-6), angiogenic factors (VEGF), and hematologic indices (PCT and PLR). A multi-marker combined predictive model will be developed to improve the identification of high-risk infants. Building on this foundation, a nano-delivery system will be constructed via self-assembly of ibuprofen molecules and targeting ligands to achieve localized, precise, and controlled release at the ductus arteriosus. Its therapeutic efficacy and safety will be evaluated through in-vitro release testing, cytotoxicity assays, and animal model experiments.
NCT07374172
Rationale: The Small Airways are a major site of obstruction in many respiratory diseases, including COPD. More insight into a diagnosis of Small Airways Dysfunction (SAD) in patients with COPD is clinically valuable as it might enable tailored pharmacotherapy. Currently, methods to diagnose SAD in COPD are not standardized and are not available in routine clinical practice. The Small Airways Dysfunction Tool (SADT) was developed to identify patients with asthma and SAD. Initially, the SADT included a comprehensive 63-item questionnaire. The number of items has been reduced to a SADT-asthma (SADT a) questionnaire and key patient and disease characteristics for it to be feasible and implementable in clinical practice. Although there are many similarities between asthma and COPD, there might be differences in clinical characteristics and responses to small airways dysfunction between the two diseases. The current study aims to adapt the original 63-item SADT questionnaire for dedicated use in COPD by reducing the number of items, and identifying COPD-SAD-specific items, to enhance its efficiency in identifying SAD when combined with key patient and disease characteristics in individuals with COPD (SADT-c). In addition, a comparison of diagnostic accuracy of spirometry and oscillometry will be made by interpretations by a panel of experts to provide a triage diagnosis. The previously developed machine learning AC/DC tool will be used to explore its diagnostic accuracy using oscillometry and spirometry results. This can contribute to standardizing oscillometry in clinical practice.

NCT06688786
Preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy can induce tumor regression and reduce the risk of postoperative recurrence, serving as the standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer. However, neoadjuvant radiotherapy may increase the risk of postoperative complications, proctitis, enteritis, and reduced anal function. Exploring radiation-free approaches to prevent the effects of radiotherapy toxicity on postoperative complications and quality of life is now a significant research focus. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy represents a promising approach in the neoadjuvant treatment of rectal cancer. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy avoids the impact of radiotherapy on organ function, reduces the incidence of postoperative anastomotic leakage, and is beneficial for long-term anal function preservation. However, its low tumor regression rate limits its application in the neoadjuvant treatment of rectal cancer. For patients with locally advanced rectal cancer, there is an urgent need for a new neoadjuvant treatment strategy that can both significantly improve tumor regression rates and reduce the risk of postoperative anastomotic leakage, and protect long-term anal function. PD-1 inhibitors are highly effective in treating microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal cancer patients, but show poor efficacy in the 95% of patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) tumors. The challenge now is to find combination therapies that can convert tumors into an "immune-activated tumor," thereby enhancing the effectiveness of immunotherapy in MSS patients. Oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil have roles in releasing tumor antigen epitopes, activating CD8+ cells, and reshaping the immune microenvironment. Multiple clinical studies and animal experiments have shown that combining PD-1 antibodies with FOLFOX generates a synergistic effect, showing strong antitumor activity. This study evaluates the efficacy, safety, and impact on postoperative anal function of preoperative neoadjuvant treatment with FOLFOX chemotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitors in patients with MSS-type advanced rectal cancer. The radiotherapy-free approach aims to avoid radiotherapy-related toxicity, offering significant potential to enhance the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, improve long-term survival, and protect anal function.
NCT03156114
This is a study in adults with advanced solid tumors including non-small cell lung cancer. The study tests the combination of two medicines called BI 754111 and BI 754091 that may help the immune system to fight the cancer. Such medicines are called immune checkpoint inhibitors. The study has two parts. In the first part, doctors want to find out the highest dose of 2 medicines that people with solid tumors can tolerate. This dose is then used for the second part of the study. In the second part, the combination of the two medicines is tested in patients with non-small cell lung cancer and other types of solid cancer. These patients had gotten treatment with anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 medicines but their tumors have come back. The doctors check whether the combination of BI 754111 and BI 754091 makes tumors shrink. Both medicines are given as an infusion into the vein every 3 weeks. If there is benefit for the patients and if they can tolerate it, the treatment is given for maximum of 1 year. During the entire study doctors will regularly check the health of the patients.

Newly diagnosed relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) and high risk clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) patients will be treated with ocrelizumab at disease onset to see if treatment favorably alters CSF markers of chronic inflammation.
NCT04898894
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and determine the best dose of venetoclax and selinexor when given with chemotherapy drugs in treating pediatric and young adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage (ALAL) that has come back (relapsed) or did not respond to treatment (refractory). Primary Objective * To determine the safety and tolerability of selinexor and venetoclax in combination with chemotherapy in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory AML or ALAL. Secondary Objectives * Describe the rates of complete remission (CR) and complete remission with incomplete count recovery (CRi) for patients treated with selinexor and venetoclax in combination with chemotherapy at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). * Describe the overall survival of patients treated at the RP2D. Exploratory Objectives * Explore associations between leukemia cell genomics, BCL2 family member protein quantification, BH3 profiling, and response to therapy as assessed by minimal residual disease (MRD) and variant clearance using cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (cfDNA). * Describe the quality of life of pediatric patients undergoing treatment with selinexor and venetoclax in combination with chemotherapy and explore associations of clinical factors with patient-reported quality of life outcomes. * Describe the clinical and genetic features associated with exceptional response to the combination of venetoclax and selinexor without the addition of chemotherapy.
NCT05622682
This observational study aims to assess recovery of the immune system and immunity to vaccine-preventable diseases in children, adolescents, and young adults who recently completed treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Several children's hospitals in the United States are participating in the study, which will enroll up to 100 pediatric participants. The study is intended to determine the rate of infection after leukemia treatment and to inform future studies and recommendations about whether children and adolescents who have leukemia should receive additional vaccine doses or boosters after treatment.
NCT05694871
This phase II trial compares the effect of treatment with palbociclib alone to treatment with palbociclib plus cemiplimab for treating patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Palbociclib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cemiplimab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. The combination of these two drugs may be more effective in shrinking or stabilizing advanced dedifferentiated liposarcoma compared to palbociclib alone.
