NCT04648826
Background: About one-third to one-half of all people dying of extrathoracic malignant diseases have cancer that has spread to the lungs. Surgery may help some people. But most people with pulmonary metastases do not survive long. Researchers want to see if a combination of drugs can help. Objective: To find a safe dose of Azacytidine, when taken as a fine mist that is inhaled (aerosolized Azacytidine), together with Bintrafusp Alfa to treat cancers that have spread to the lungs. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have cancer that has spread to the lungs, cannot be cured with surgery, and has not responded to standard treatments. Design: Participants will get Azacytidine by breathing treatments once a day for 3 days each week, for 3 weeks. The 3-week period is 1 cycle. Each course of treatment is 3 cycles. Once per cycle, participants will get Bintrafusp Alfa via IV. An IV is a small tube that is put into an arm vein. Participants will keep a diary of any side effects. Participants can take the study drugs for as long as they can continue treatment. Participants will have medical histories and physical exams. They will give blood, urine, and lung lining fluid samples. Tumor samples will be taken via bronchoscopy. They will have lung function tests. Participants will have an imaging scan that shows how spray particles move in their airway when they inhale. They will have tumor imaging scans of the chest and brain. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after they stop treatment....
NCT03430934
The objective of this study is to correlate traditional histological Mohs tissue mapping of a cutaneous tumor with the ICG-mapping procedure. The use of intradermal ICG in a cutaneous tumor during MMS followed by visualization using a fluorescent imaging system could allow surgeons to directly visualize, and roughly map the extent of a primary skin cancer and plan the Mohs procedure (i.e. the initial excision size and subsequent layer widths) accordingly.
NCT00910650
The purpose of this phase 2 study is to find the best way to give this new experimental regimen and determine if it can treat metastatic melanoma in humans. In this phase 2 study, the experimental products are given initially to a group of 8 people. If safe and found to have significant anti-tumor activity, it will be given to up to 14 other people, for a total of 22 people in this study. Physicians watch subjects carefully for any harmful side effects. Although the experimental regimen has been well tested in laboratory and animal studies, and a similar regimen has been given to a group of patients at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, MD, the side effects in people cannot be completely known ahead of time. This protocol is offered only to people whose condition cannot be helped by other known treatments. The study procedures will start with the collection of white blood cells through apheresis (a procedure in which blood is drawn from a patient and separated into its components, some of which are retained, such as white blood cells, and the remainder returned by transfusion to the patient). Subjects will be asked to undergo two aphereses, one to make the gene-modified MART-1 TCR CTLs (cytolytic T lymphocyte) and the dendritic cell vaccines, and a second one after the subject receives the gene modified cells to later study them in the blood. On the day of the first apheresis, subjects will be admitted to the hospital and will receive chemotherapy over the next five days which decreases the risk of rejection of the transferred cells by the subject's immune system and facilitates their expansion and attack of the melanoma lesions. During this time, the gene-modified MART-1 TCR CTLs and the dendritic cells will be manufactured in the laboratory from the apheresis product and will be extensively tested to assure that they express the appropriate TCR and that they do not contain any contaminating bacteria or virus. Then the gene-modified MART-1 TCR CTLs will be given back to the subject through a vein in the arm. It will be followed by vaccination with the dendritic cells under the skin. During the next fourteen days, subjects will also receive interleukin 2 (IL-2), which is a standard treatment for patients with metastatic melanoma. During the next 2 to 3 weeks, subjects will stay in the hospital until the study investigators determine that the subject has fully recovered from all of the procedures, and it is safe for the subject to go home. Chemotherapy frequently causes a decrease in the platelet or red blood cells, and therefore subjects may require platelet and/or red blood cell transfusions.
NCT00730639
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of MDX-1106 in patients with certain types of cancer. Another purpose is to determine how MDX-1106 is absorbed and distributed within the body, and how it's eventually eliminated.
NCT02366195
The study is a phase 2, multi centered, single arm study designed to evaluate the correlation between cluster of differentiation 8-positive (CD8+) cell density and objective response rate in adults with unresected stage IIIB to IVM1c melanoma. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability profile of talimogene laherparepvec.
NCT02009397
The purpose of this study is to test the combination of Ipilimumab and GM-CSF. Both ipilimumab and GM-CSF are intended to work with the body's own immune system to attack melanoma cells in the body. This study will also demostrate how safe the combined drugs are when used to treat patients with Stage 3 or Stage 4 melanoma (metastatic melanoma), which cannot be removed by surgery.
NCT02129075
This phase II trial studies the effect of a vaccine called CDX-1401 given with or without a biologic drug called CDX-301 in treating patients with stage IIB-IV melanoma. The cancer vaccine CDX-1401 attaches to a protein that is made in tumor cells. The vaccine helps the body recognize the tumor to fight the cancer. The biologic drug CDX-301 may help the body make more of the tumor fighting cells, known as dendritic cells. Another biologic drug, poly-ICLC, may stimulate the immune system and help these dendritic cells mature so that they can recognize the tumor. Giving CDX-301 may make the immune response to a combination of CDX-1401 and poly-ICLC better.
NCT05120024

NCT05097378
A two-arm, randomised trial investigating the response of encorafenib and binimetinib compared to standard adjuvant therapy.
NCT04336371
Surgery is the first-line treatment of localized skin cancers. Knowledge on the patient's psychological experience is limited. Therefore, the psychological impact on patients before, during and after surgery can be underestimated. Moreover, the diagnosis of cancer disturbs the patient's entire life and the onset of anxiety disorders is frequent following this announcement.
NCT05089188
Skin melanoma is a common form of skin cancer. Its diagnosis is usually clinically suspected and then affirmed by histopathological examination. In some cases, the histopathological analysis of these lesions is equivocal, and the malignant or benign nature of the proliferation is difficult to determine with certainty. In these cases, the use of expensive ancillary tests, which are hardly accessible and take a long time to set up (FISH - CGH-array), is usually required. Anti-PRAME immunostaining, an inexpensive and readily available technic, has recently been described as highly sensitive and specific for diagnosing malignant melanocytic proliferations. Knowledge on its utility for evaluating ambiguous melanocytic neoplasms remains limited. Our study aims to improve the current body of knowledge on the utility of PRAME immunohistochemistry for evaluating challenging samples of melanocytic proliferation. The secondary objective is to determine the PRAME immunoreactivity profile for each histological subtype of melanocytic proliferations (spitzoid tumors, cellular blue nevi, dysplastic nevi ...)
NCT05087602

NCT02983006
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile, tolerability, and immunoregulatory (pharmacodynamic; PD) activity of DS-8273a administered in combination with nivolumab (anti-PD-1 antibody) to subjects with unresectable Stage III or Stage IV melanoma.
NCT03409419
The goal of this proposal is to assess the biodistribution of 18F-Clofarabine, a new tracer developed for use in PET/CT scans. The investigator's hypothesis is this tracer will allow for imaging immune activation in patients with melanoma before and after treatment with immunotherapy. A maximum of 10 subjects are intended to be included in this study. Each subject will undergo a maximum of two 18F-Clofarabine PET/CT scans, with each visit taking up to 4 hours. The first visit will be prior to the first cycle of immunotherapy treatment, and the second scan will take place 2-4 weeks after the immunotherapy treatment has started. Prior to the PET scan an IV line will be placed. Blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen and ECG will be obtained. Then the 18F-Clofarabine will be injected and the PET/CT scan acquisition started. After a maximum of 120 min of scanning, subjects will undergo again blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen and ECG.
