NCT04309409
Stage II patients with primary surgical treatment of cuMM are often at risk for recurrence of their disease. This risk may be reduced by adjuvant systemic treatment. Due to toxicities of adjuvant therapies the aim is to identify patients at high risk for relapse and to administer adjuvant treatment only to these patients. Thus an optimal balance between insufficient treatment vs. overtreatment has to be found. To define these patients a prognostic biomarker test will be used in addition to conventional AJCC staging. AJCC staging takes into account several prognostic factors. However, to subdivide stage II melanoma patients into having a low or high risk for relapse further methods are needed. This clinical trial will evaluate whether adjuvant nivolumab treatment will improve relapse-free survival (RFS) in patients with stage II high-risk melanoma as compared to observation only. The randomized approach of this trial offers the most objective method with the least influence of bias. Since patients with stage II melanoma are usually not receiving adjuvant treatment, no patient will be undertreated in case of randomization into observational arm.
NCT06424626
This study was a phase IB, single-center, open-label, two part(part A involved dose reduction, and part B involved cohort expansion) clinical trial evaluating the safety and clinical activity of AK104 or AK112 in combination with axitinib in patients with advanced mucosal melanoma.
NCT02107755
This phase II trial studies the effectiveness of the combination of stereotactic radiation therapy and ipilimumab in patients with metastatic melanoma that has spread to four or fewer sites in the body (oligometastatic). Stereotactic radiation therapy is a type of external beam radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a either a single large dose of radiation therapy to a tumor or several large doses of radiation therapy to a tumor using precision and accuracy that is guided by onboard daily imaging prior to radiation therapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some monoclonal antibodies find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving stereotactic radiosurgery together with ipilimumab may kill more tumor cells by causing addition melanoma antigens to be presented to the immune system.
NCT02107963
Background GD2 is a well-characterized tumor antigen in neuroblastoma, which is also expressed on osteosarcomas and some other sarcomas. T cells expressing 1st generation anti-GD2 chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) were safe and mediated modest antitumor activity in some patients with refractory neuroblastoma. A 3rd generation anti-GD2-CAR (GD2-CAR.OX40.28.z.ICD9) has been produced and holds promise for increased activity compared to the 1st generation GD2-CAR already studied in clinical trials. As an added safety measure, the vector includes a suicide switch comprising a caspase dimerization domain (ICD9) that can be activated by a small molecule to induce death of the genetically engineered cells if they were induce untoward toxicity. Objectives Primary:Determine the feasibility of producing anti GD2-CAR cells meeting the established release criteria and to assess the safety of administering escalating doses of anti-GD2-CAR engineered T cells in children and young adults with GD2+ solid tumors, including neuroblastoma, following cyclophosphamide-based lymphodepletion. Secondary: 1. Determine if administration anti-GD2-CAR engineered T cells mediate antitumor effects in children and young adults with GD2+ solid tumors; 2. Measure persistence of adoptively transferred anti-GD2-CAR T cells and correlate this with antitumor effects; 3. Extend information regarding the prevalence and intensity of GD2 expression in non-neuroblastoma, non-osteosarcoma solid tumors in children and young adults; 4. If unacceptable toxicity occurs that is possibly, probably or likely related to anti-GD2-CAR T cells, assess the capacity for AP1903, a dimerizing agent, to mediate clearance of the genetically engineered cells and resolve toxicity; and 5. Assess toxicity of AP1903 if administered to mediate clearance of anti-GD2-CAR T cells. Eligibility Patients 1-35 years of age, at least 15 kg, with osteosarcoma or a GD2+ solid tumor (including neuroblastoma) that has recurred after or not responded to standard therapy and is deemed incurable by standard therapy. Design After apheresis to collect T cells for transduction, patients receive cyclophosphamide 1800mg/m(2)/d as a lymphodepleting regimen. A phase I cell dose escalation scheme will used at 4 dose levels (1 x 10(5) transduced T cells/kg; 1 x 10(6) transduced T cells/kg; 3 x 10(6) transduced T cells/kg; and 1 x 10(7) transduced T cells/kg), using a standard 3 plus 3 dose escalation design. An expanded group of a total of 12 patients will be treated at the highest dose, comprising at least 6 osteosarcoma patients. Patients will be monitored for toxicity, antitumor effects and persistence of anti-GD2-CAR T cells. Patients with a PR, SD may receive a 2nd cycle at the next higher dose level a minimum of 60 days following completion of the first cycle if eligibility criteria are met. A maximum of 36 patients may be treated on this study. Given that there is likelihood that some patients with non-osteosarcoma will not meet the criteria for GD2 expression to be eligible for enrollment, up to 72 subjects will be screened to enroll a maximum of 36 patients for treatment. Up to 2-3 patients will be accrued per month, and therefore this study may require up to 2-3 years to complete enrollment and treatment.
NCT03520634
This is a feasibility study for the use of \[18F\]PD-L1 as a PET tracer that will be conducted in a single center. The study consists of two phases.

NCT02621515
The effect of nivolumab on symptomatic brain metastases is currently unknown. This phase 2 clinical trial will be the first to evaluate this intracranial effect in humans, with the aim to give these patients the possibility to be treated with anti-PD-1. Besides the objective response rate, long term benefits in this patient category will be evaluated by measuring survival in terms of progression free survival and overall survival. Furthermore safety and tolerability of administration of this drug in patients with symptomatic brain metastases will be studied, as this is the first study for nivolumab in this specific patient category.
NCT00199342
This is a dose escalating cohort study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of KW-2871 (in dose cohorts of 60, 80, and 100 mg/m2) when administered with a specified premedication regimen (ranitidine, diphenhydramine, and dexamethasone). KW-2871 will be administered at 14-day intervals.
NCT04193956
This is a two-center, prospective continuously accruing longitudinal cohort study in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) or metastatic melanoma eligible for standard anti-PD-1 antibody treatment. The data from this prospective longitudinal cohort will be used in the POINTING (towards patient -tailored cancer immunotherapy supported by a multifaceted predictive signature composed of integrative omics and molecular imaging) KWF Kankerbestrijding project (WP4). The goal of this project is to develop a multifaceted predictive signature, by using new techniques on tumor characteristics before and during treatment with immune therapy. To do so, researchers will use the 'omics' approach. By combining molecular omics comprising genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics with radiomics and molecular imaging a set of factors will arise which can accurately predict the outcome of the treatment. Participants in this cohort will undergo tumor biopsies, venous blood sampling and feces sampling before, during and at the end of standard anti-PD-1 antibody treatment. Also, data derived form routine procedures performed for standard-of-care anti-PD-1 treatment (ao laboratory assessments, CT and FDG-PET) will be collected.
NCT02970981

NCT05061537
This is a first-in-human, Phase 1, open label, multicenter, multiple dose, dose escalation and expansion study intended to evaluate the safety, viral load kinetics and shedding, pharmacodynamic, and anti-tumor activity of PF-07263689, either alone or in combination with sasanlimab (an investigational anti-programmed cell death protein 1 \[PD-1\] antibody), in patients with selected locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have exhausted all available standard of care therapies available to them. The study consists of 2 parts: Part 1 dose escalation for PF-07263689 monotherapy (Part 1A) and in combination with sasanlimab (Part 1B), followed by Part 2 dose expansion for the combination therapy.
NCT04165967
This study is to investigate safety and feasibility of a combination therapy of a tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) transfer with anti-programmed cell death protein (PD)-1 therapy in patients with metastatic melanoma that failed immunotherapy.Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes will be expanded from resected melanoma samples from the patient and expanded TILs will be transferred to the patient after non-myeloablative chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. TIL transfer will be combined with low dose Interleukin (IL)-2 and nivolumab anti-PD-1 treatment. The study uses a personalized Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP), i.e. TIL product and in combination with IL-2 treatment and nivolumab.
NCT02519322
This randomized phase II trial studies how well nivolumab with or without ipilimumab or relatlimab before surgery works in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV melanoma that can be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, ipilimumab, and relatlimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving nivolumab alone or in combination with ipilimumab or relatlimab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.
NCT02978443
Participants with advanced or metastatic mucosal melanoma (cohort A) and acral lentiginous melanoma (cohort B) eligible for treatment with nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab followed by nivolumab therapy will submit tissue blocks from tumors of malignant melanoma for histopathology review and immunohistochemistry analysis at Georgetown University-Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center. Pretreatment blood will be drawn and stored in the Melanoma Research Foundation Breakthrough Consortium Virtual Repository at each participating institution. At the end of participation, samples will be sent to Georgetown University-Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center for processing and storage. An optional pretreatment biopsy of an accessible tumor lesion will be performed in a subset of enrolled patients. Patients will receive nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab according to the standard FDA approved treatment regimen.

NCT03932253
Melanoma is one of the most common cutaneous cancers worldwide. Activating mutations in RAS oncogenes are found in a third of all human cancers and NRAS mutations are found in 15%-20% of melanomas. Acquisition of a functional mutation in NRAS results in activation of the Ras / Raf / MEK / ERK signaling pathway leading to unconstrained cell growth and cell transformation. NRAS mutation status was identified as an independent poor prognostic factor in stage IV melanoma. No drug was approved to treat melanoma patients with NRAS mutation or amplification until now. FCN-159, an oral and potent MEK1/2 inhibitor, has more than 10 folds higher selectivity against activated MEK1 and MEK2 compared with trametinib, and has demonstrated significant antitumor growth inhibition in two patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models with NRAS mutation. Approximately 10%-15% of melanomas is reported to be NF1-mutant. NF1 gene is located in chromosome 17 q11.2 and encodes neurofibromin 1. Neurofibromin 1 is a RAS-specific GTP enzyme-activated protein that converts RAS from the active guanosine triphosphate (GTP) binding state to the inactivated guanosine diphosphate (GDP) binding state and acts as a negative regulatory factor for RAS and its downstream MAPK and PI3K-Akt pathways. Recent treatments of NF1 mutation focus on the downstream of the MAPK pathway, such as MEK kinase. Blocking the MEK kinase can reduce neurofibroma in mice with NF1 mutation and prolong the survival time of mice with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) xenograft. In the NF1 mutant monocytic leukemia mouse model, the use of MEK inhibitors can improve mouse survival rate. This is the first in human study to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor activity in patients.
NCT03727789
This phase I trial studies best dose and side effects of CBL0137 in treating patients with extremity melanoma or sarcoma that has spread to other places in the body. Drugs, such as CBL0137, may work by binding to tumor cell deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) to stop the cell from growing further.
