NCT05969860
This clinical trial studies the effect of cancer directed therapy given at-home versus in the clinic for patients with cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Currently most drug-related cancer care is conducted in infusion centers or specialty hospitals, where patients spend many hours a day isolated from family, friends, and familiar surroundings. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. The logistics and costs of navigating cancer treatments have become a principal contributor to patients' reduced quality of life. It is therefore important to reduce the burden of cancer in the lives of patients and their caregivers, and a vital aspect of this involves moving beyond traditional hospital and clinic-based care and evaluate innovative care delivery models with virtual capabilities. Providing cancer treatment at-home, versus in the clinic, may help reduce psychological and financial distress and increase treatment compliance, especially for marginalized patients and communities.
NCT07042295
This phase II trial compares the effect of amivantamab and hyaluronidase to cetuximab for the treatment of skin (cutaneous) squamous cell carcinoma that has come back after a period of improvement and has not spread to other parts of the body (locally recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Amivantamab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Hyaluronidase is an endoglycosidase. It helps to keep amivantamab in the body longer, so that the medications will have a greater effect. Cetuximab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called EGFR, which is found on some types of cancer cells. This may help keep cancer cells from growing. Giving amivantamab and hyaluronidase may be as effective as cetuximab for the treatment of locally recurrent or metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
NCT07144384
This early phase I trial compares the safety, side effects and the biological or cellular activity of two types of universal donor (UD) natural killer (NK) cells (standard NK cells and transforming growth factor \[TGF\] beta imprinted \[TGF-beta-i\] NK cells), given directly into the tumor (intratumoral) in treating patients with skin (cutaneous) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) or basal cell carcinoma (BCC). NK cells are a type of white blood cell that can recognize missing or incorrect proteins on tumor cells and then kill these tumor cells. It was recently discovered that infection with human cytomegalovirus (CMV), a common virus, leads to the development of a unique NK cell population. These "adaptive" NK cells have a more potent anti-tumor killing action. The TGF-beta-i NK cells used in this study are created using donors whose blood tests positive for CMV exposure. This may make them more effective at killing tumor cells. Giving UD TGF-beta-i NK cells may be safe, tolerable and/or more effective than standard UD expanded NK cells in treating patients with SCC or BCC.
NCT03944941
This phase II trial studies how well avelumab with or without cetuximab work in treating patients with skin squamous cell cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab and cetuximab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
NCT02721732
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating patients with rare tumors that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread to other parts of the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may block specific proteins found on white blood cells which may strengthen the immune system and control tumor growth.
NCT05085496
This phase I trial tests the safety and side effects radiotherapy in combination with atezolizumab in treating patients with cutaneous squamous cell cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) and can be removed from surgery (resectable) or cannot be remove by surgery (unresectable). Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving radiotherapy in combination with atezolizumab may help improve outcomes for remission (cancer that is under control) than taking either treatment separately.
NCT04163952
This phase I trial studies the side effects and how well talimogene laherparepvec and panitumumab work in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Talimogene laherparepvec is a type of vaccine made from a gene-modified virus that may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as panitumumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving talimogene laherparepvec and panitumumab may work better in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the skin compared to panitumumab alone.
NCT04315701
This phase II trial studies how well cemiplimab before surgery works in treating patients with skin cancer that is high-risk and has not spread to other parts of the body (localized), has come back locally (locally recurrent), or has spread regionally (regionally advanced), and can be removed by surgery (resectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as cemiplimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
NCT03108131
This phase II trial studies how well cobimetinib and atezolizumab work in treating participants with rare tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving cobimetinib and atezolizumab may work better in treating participants with advanced or refractory rare tumors.
