31,051 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and the effects of PF-08046037 alone or with sasanlimab for the treatment of certain advanced or metastatic malignancies. This study is seeking participants who: * have advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), melanoma, or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); * are able to provide tumor tissue samples; * have measurable disease. All participants will receive while at the clinic PF-08046037 alone as an intravenous (IV) infusion (given directly into a vein) or with sasanlimab as a subcutaneous (SQ) injection (given under the skin) once every 3 weeks. Participants will continue to take the study drug(s) until their cancer is no longer responding or if the patient cannot safely take them. The study team will monitor how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the study clinic.
This clinical trial tests how well guided meditation, compared to silence, works to reduce pre-operative anxiety in patients undergoing cancer-directed surgery. Pre-operative anxiety affects patient experience and has been found to be a predictor of severe post-operative pain and chronic pain after surgery, influencing the success and quality of a patient's recovery. While medication is often prescribed to improve anxiety symptoms, research has showed that mindfulness techniques can be used to decrease anxiety, improve comfort, and can impact both psychological and physiologic symptoms. Completing pre-operative guided meditation may work well to reduce pre-operative anxiety in patients undergoing cancer directive surgery.
This phase I trial tests the safety and effectiveness of 18F-TRX in detecting tumors (cancer) patients with solid tumors. 18F-TRX is an imaging tracer that is used to visualize tumors using a PET scan. It specifically targets and detects labile (unstable) iron levels within tissues, including tumors. Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-TRX PET/CT or PET/MRI, may help detect tumors in patients with solid tumors
This clinical trial evaluates the how well a virtually delivered solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT-C) works to decrease adolescent and young adult cancer survivors' psychological distress in comparison to enhanced treatment-as-usual care. Cancer and its treatment can have immediate and long-term impacts on adolescent and young adult cancer survivor's lives, including education and employment, financial stability, sexual health, and social, romantic, and family relationships. Consequently, many adolescent and young adult cancer survivors report psychological distress, often manifesting as depression and anxiety, and may benefit from psychotherapy to improve their engagement with medical treatment and overall quality of life. SFBT-C is a theory-driven and brief hope-based psychotherapy designed for the unique psychosocial needs facing adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. Undergoing SFBT-C may work better than treatment-as-usual care for the support of psychological distress in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, study of the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and anti-tumor activity of MRTX1719 patients with advanced, unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancy with homozygous deletion of the MTAP gene.
This clinical trial tests whether various web-based tools can help improve communication about hereditary cancer risk in families and decrease barriers to genetic testing for relatives of patients with hereditary cancer syndromes. Between 5% and 10% of all cancers are caused by genetic changes that are hereditary, which means that they run in families. Some kinds of cancer or certain cancers diagnosed in biological relatives may mean patients are more likely to have a genetic change. Once a genetic change is identified in a family, other biological relatives can choose to undergo testing themselves to better understand their cancer risk. The uptake of genetic testing in other biological relatives once a genetic condition is identified is about 20% to 30%. The Cascade Genetic Testing Platform is a virtual tool that seeks to overcome barriers related to logistics of family communication and improve dissemination of genetic testing information which is clinically actionable for individuals at highest risk for cancer. Using the Cascade Genetic Testing Platform may improve ways to share information about hereditary risk with biological relatives.
This phase III trial studies how well pafolacianine works for identifying cancerous lesions in children and adolescent patients with primary solid tumors or solid tumors that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pafolacianine is a fluorescent imaging agent that targets folate receptors which are overexpressed in many cancers and is used with near infrared (NIR) imaging during surgery to identify tumor cells. NIR uses a special camera that uses wavelengths in the infrared range to visualize and locate the tumor cells that are lit up by the pafolacianine. Giving pafolacianine for NIR imaging may work better than other imaging agents in identifying cancerous lesions in pediatric patients with solid tumors.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of AdV-HSV1-TK and AdV-Flt3L in combination with valacyclovir for the treatment of patients with primary cancerous (malignant) brain tumors that can be removed by surgery (resectable) and that have come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). AdV-HSV1-TK and AdV-Flt3L use a virus modified in the laboratory to kill tumor cells and stimulate the immune system to recognize the tumor cells as "invaders" which can lead to tumor shrinkage. For this process to work, an oral anti-herpes medication called valacyclovir is also needed. Giving AdV-HSV1-TK, AdV-Flt3L and valacyclovir may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with resectable, recurrent primary malignant brain tumors.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of MTI-301 in treating patients with solid cancers that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and that have not responded to previous treatment (refractory). MTI-301 is a drug that inhibits an enzyme called SCD1. SCD1 is an enzyme that promotes tumor growth and spread and is upregulated in some cancer types. MTI-301 may disrupt the activity of SCD1, which may lead to reduced tumor growth and/or spread.
This phase II trial tests how well craniospinal irradiation (CSI) using photon volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy (VMAT) works in treating patients with breast cancer or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread from the original (primary) tumor to the cerebrospinal fluid and meninges (thin layers of tissue that cover and protect the brain and spinal cord) (leptomeningeal disease). Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. CSI (radiation therapy directed at the brain and spinal cord to kill tumor cells) may be able to target all of the areas of possible leptomeningeal tumor spread. Photon-VMAT-CSI may be an effective treatment option for patients with leptomeningeal disease secondary to breast cancer or NSCLC.
This study evaluates how adolescent and young adults with cancer in the U.S. and their loved ones respond to questions that will later be used with people who may have cancer and other chronic health conditions
This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects and best dose of AZD1390 and to see how well it works when given together with radiation therapy for the treatment of pediatric patients with high grade glioma, diffuse midline glioma or diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma. AZD1390 is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the signals that cause cancer cells to multiply. This helps to stop the spread of cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving AZD1390 with radiation may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating pediatric patients with high grade glioma, diffuse midline glioma or diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma.
This study seeks to develop, test, and revise an intervention designed to address financial hardship (FinFit) among adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors.
This study evaluates relationships among physical activity, thinking, and memory after cancer treatment in survivors of adolescent and young adult cancers.
Purpose: This study will evaluate how measurements of tissue stiffness, viscosity, and anisotropy using non-invasive ultrasound imaging correlate with breast tumor malignancy and response to chemotherapy. Participants: Up to 200 women with benign or malignant breast tumors for arm 1 and up to 50 women undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the breast for arm 2 will be recruited. Procedures (methods): The research team will use an ultrasound scanner to acquire non-invasive elastography data from the breast of each subject, testing a range of transducer rotation angles. Transducer position will be monitored using a position sensor during imaging.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate CLBR001 and ABBV-461 as a treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. The goals are to establish the safety and efficacy of the combination therapy while establishing the optimal biologic doses. Patients will be administered a single infusion of CLBR001 cells followed by cycles of ABBV-461 with regular assessments of safety and disease response to treatment.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate if firefighter exposure to hazardous compounds will increase the incidence of premalignant hematological states which subsequently increases the risk of the development of hematologic malignancies, and potentially other pathophysiological consequences.
This clinical trial tests how well fucoidan works in preventing chemotherapy-related fatigue compared to a placebo in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) or gynecological (GYN) cancer. Fatigue poses a burden in patients with malignancies undergoing systemic chemotherapy. Fucoidan is a dietary supplement made of complex sugar that contain sulfate groups attached to their sugar units (sulfated polysaccharide) which found in brown seaweed. It is thought to have anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-thrombotic, anti-diabetic, and anti-tumor effects in pre-clinical models. Giving fucoidan may be effective in preventing chemotherapy-related fatigue in patients with GI or GYN.
This phase IV trial compares suvorexant with standard of care to standard of care alone for improving difficulty sleeping (insomnia) and reducing confusion (delirium) in hospitalized cancer patients. Delirium can lengthen hospitalization, increase the delay of cancer treatment and can even increase the risk of premature death. Suvorexant is in a class of medications called orexin receptor antagonists. It works by blocking the action of a certain natural substance in the brain that causes wakefulness. Giving suvorexant with standard of care to treat insomnia may be more effective compared to standard of care alone in reducing the development of delirium in hospitalized cancer patients.
This phase II trial studies whether psilocybin with psychotherapy is safe and if it works for improving chronic pain in cancer patients who require opioids to manage their pain. Psilocybin is taken from the mushroom Psilocybe mexicana. Psilocybin acts on the brain to cause hallucinations (sights, sounds, smells, tastes, or touches that a person believes to be real but are not real). This may impact a patient's "total pain", a view that accounts for the psychological, spiritual, and social factors that contribute to their experience of pain. Psychotherapy uses methods such as discussion, listening, and counseling to help patients change the way they react to environmental triggers that may cause a negative reaction. Giving psilocybin with psychotherapy may be safe and helpful for improving chronic pain in cancer patients who require opioids to manage their pain.
This is a first in human study of TNG456 alone and in combination with abemaciclib in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors known to have an MTAP loss. The first part of the study is an open-label, dose escalation and the second part is an open label dose expansion in specific solid tumor types with a confirmed MTAP loss. The study drug, TNG456, is a selective PRMT5 inhibitor administered orally. The study is planned to treat up to 191 participants.
This study will test the safety of a drug called PF-08046031 in participants with melanoma and other solid tumors that have no current approved treatment or have spread through the body. It will also study the side effects of this drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease. The study will have 3 parts. Part A and B of the study will find out how much PF-08046031 should be given to participants. Part C will use the information from Parts A and B to see if PF-08046031 is safe and if it works to treat solid tumor cancers.
The main goals are after treatment given before surgery, to measure the number of people who have no signs of cancer cells in tumors and lymph nodes removed during surgery; and to learn about whether the cancer gets smaller or goes away by measuring the number of people with a certain number of living cancer cells in the tumor removed during surgery.
This clinical trial studies the effect of respiratory training for enhancing brain and mental health among patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and cancer (along with their caregivers). The relationship between respiration, cardiovascular effects in the brain, mental health, and neurophysiological mechanisms are significant for patient populations facing complex health challenges, such as those with cancer and neurodegenerative disease, and their caregivers. By measuring oxygen delivery to brain tissues and cerebrospinal fluid flow, this trial may help researchers investigate the potential benefits of respiratory training for patients with MS and cancer and their caregivers.
This clinical trial studies whether an unrestricted cash payment program can be used to improve financial and clinical outcomes in early-stage cancer patients with financial concerns. A cancer diagnosis can have poor financial outcomes, and the cost of cancer treatment can lead to high medical debt and financial hardships for the patient and family. Financial hardship during cancer treatment is associated with adverse outcomes including poorer quality of life, lower treatment compliance, more aggressive use of hospital-based care, and worse survival. Newly diagnosed cancer patients with financial concerns may avoid treatment entirely so that they can continue to work and maintain income, provide for their families, or pay rent. An unrestricted cash payment program provides patients with a preloaded cash card once monthly. The patients can choose what to use the card to pay for and may include items like food, rent, or utilities. This provides a period of guaranteed income for the patients and may prevent them from falling into poverty and improve financial and clinical outcomes.
This clinical trial evaluates the impact of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program adjusted to include Christian principles on well-being in Black adult cancer survivors. Cancer survivors face a unique set of challenges that includes not only physical but also mental and spiritual well-being. Concerns related to both diagnosis and treatment profoundly impact the quality of life of Black cancer survivors. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have been shown to be effective in improving psychological resilience, reducing anxiety, and enhancing the quality of life among cancer survivors. However, there is little research focusing on these interventions among Black adult cancer survivors. Research has shown that interventions that include cultural experiences, such as the role of religion, spirituality and faith, are more effective in maintaining psychological well-being in Black men. A MBSR program adjusted to include Christian principles may improve the well-being in Black adult cancer survivors.
This purpose of this study is to determine if experimental treatment with BMS-986488, alone, or in combinations is safe, tolerable, and has anti-cancer activity in patients with advanced malignant tumors.
The overall goal of this first-in-human (FIH) clinical trial is to learn about the safety and dosing of COM503 when given alone or in combination with zimberelimab in participants with advanced solid tumors. The primary objectives of this study are: * To assess the safety and tolerability of COM503 as monotherapy and COM503 in combination with zimberelimab in participants with advanced solid tumors. * To identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / maximum administered dose (MAD) and/or the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of COM503 as monotherapy and in combination with zimberelimab in participants with advanced solid tumors.
This is a Phase 1a/1b open-label, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CT-95 (study drug), a humanized T cell engaging bispecific antibody targeting Mesothelin, in subjects with advanced solid tumors associated with Mesothelin expression.
This is a first-in-human (FIH), open-label, multiple-site, dose escalation study which will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of increasing doses of BNT317 in participants with advanced solid tumors.
