3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a single-arm, open-label trial designed to evaluate the activity of pembrolizumab therapy in anaplastic thyroid cancer in patients with no curative alternative therapy. Pembrolizumab (Keytruda-Merck) 200 mg, given IV every 3 weeks, until evidence of progression, intolerance of treatment, withdrawal of consent or death
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of treatment with abemaciclib in patients with anaplastic thyroid/undifferentiated thyroid
This is an, open-label, protocol designed to evaluate the activity of targeted therapy in anaplastic/undifferentiated thyroid cancer. Arm A will evaluate ATC/UTC with mutations or rearrangements detected in the ALK gene. There is no effective treatment for anaplastic thyroid cancer in the locally recurrent or metastatic setting. Ceritinib will be administered to the patient until disease progression by RECIST 1.1, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or discontinuation of the trial for any other reason. The primary focus of this arm of the protocol is identifying ceritinib's activity in anaplastic or undifferentiated thyroid cancer patients. Those patients with mutations identified in their ALK gene by sequencing their tumor samples, or with the established ALK abnormalities will be treated with ALK-inhibitors. These include the Ventana assay and Vysis FISH probe, and patients with tumors positive by this assay will also be considered eligible for therapy on the trial. Therapeutic Portion: ARM A: ALK Abnormality IND Ceritinib 750 mg orally daily on Day 1 Continue q4 weeks x 2 cycles Primary Endpoint: The development of progression; new recurrence or distant metastasis, as well as enlargement of an existing metastasis on radiographic imaging. Secondary Endpoints: 1. Overall response rate for patients treated with ceritinib as part of the study. 2. Death of study participant due to any cause.
