6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
With improvements in response rate and survival seen for HER2 positive patients treated with HER2 blockade in the metastatic setting, the use of HER2 blockade in the neoadjuvant setting to increase antitumor effect shows promise. Patients with previously untreated localized HER2 positive esophageal, GE junction and gastric adenocarcinomas will be enrolled. Patients meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria will receive neoadjuvant treatment with concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy beginning on day 1 of treatment. During the lead-in safety portion, the optimal dose of lapatinib will be determined.
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, pembrolizumab in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy, has on the patients' esophagogastric cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of a combination of chemotherapy, capecitabine and oxaliplatin, plus the antibodies bevacizumab and trastuzumab. Trastuzumab (also called Herceptin) is an antibody that attacks HER2 protein in tumor cells. Bevacizumab (also called Avastin) works by slowing or stopping the growth of cells in cancer tumors by decreasing the blood supply of the tumors. If blood supply is decreased, oxygen and nutrients that are needed for tumor growth are decreased. The chemotherapy used in this trial is called CAPOX, which is an abbreviation of capecitabine and oxaliplatin.
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good or bad, the combination of standard chemotherapy agent paclitaxel with the investigational (experimental) drug afatinib that targets HER2, has on HER2-positive esophagogastric cancer that started to get bigger despite previous treatment with trastuzumab. The doctors will also study the tumor to understand why it grew while on trastuzumab treatment and to see the effects afatinib and paclitaxel has on the tumor.
The purpose of the first group (Group 1) was to find the optimal time for taking pictures after injection of 89Zr-DFO-trastuzumab, to see how long it stayed in the blood, and to see how well it was tolerated. From what the investigators have learned from Group 1, patients in Group 2 no longer need serial scans or serial blood draws. This study is based on a cohort expansion. All data is appropriately reported as there is only one study cohort
Phase 1, first-in-human, open label study of CAR macrophages in HER2 overexpressing solid tumors.
