3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, radiation has on the lungs has on the patient and on synovial sarcoma which has spread to the lungs. The standard treatment for synovial sarcoma which has spread to the lungs is chemotherapy with or without surgery to remove the tumors in the lungs. However, tumors often come back in the lungs after chemotherapy and/or surgery. Since synovial sarcoma is known to be sensitive to radiation, this study is looking at whether radiation therapy which is targeted to the entire lung can further reduce the chances of the cancer returning. This type of radiation is commonly used in other types of sarcoma to treat the cancer once it has spread to the lungs and it may be very useful in synovial sarcoma as well. In this study, a special type of radiation will be used, called Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). With IMRT the radiation beams are more customized to focus more radiation on the tumor cells while delivering less radiation to areas like the heart. The goal of this study is also to measure pulmonary toxicity and see if IMRT is feasible and has less toxicity.
This study is designed to see if we can lower the chance of side effects from radiation in patients with breast, kidney, small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma that has spread to the brain and who are also being treated with immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. This study will compare the usual care treatment of single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) given on one day versus fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS), which is a lower dose of radiation given over a few days to determine if FSRS is better or worse at reducing side effects than usual care treatment.
A Phase 1/2, open label, multi-center study to evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerability of alomfilimab as single agent and in combination with anti-PD-L1 (atezolizumab) in adult patients with selected advanced malignancies, who are ineligible for or there are no available therapies known to confer a clinical benefit for their disease, or they have exhausted all such available options in each indication and therefore will be patients for whom a clinical trial is appropriate.
