6 in progress, 4 open to eligible people

Showing trials for
  • AZD8205 Given Alone or in Combination With Anticancer Drugs, in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Malignancies

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This research study is studying a new compound, AZD8205, as a possible treatment for advanced or metastatic solid tumours alone or in combination with anti-cancer agents

  • Dato-Dxd as Monotherapy and in Combination With Anti-cancer Agents in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumours (TROPION-PanTumor03)

    open to eligible people ages 18-130

    TROPION-PanTumor03 will investigate the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumour activity of Datopotamab Deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) as Monotherapy and in Combination with Anticancer Agents in Patients with Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumours.

  • Virtual Reality for GI Cancer Pain to Improve Patient Reported Outcomes

    open to eligible people ages 18-99

    Patients with digestive tract malignancy often experience severe and unremitting abdominal pain that negatively affects physical, emotional, and social function, as well as health related quality of life (HRQOL). Therapeutic virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a promising and evidence-based treatment modality for cancer pain. Users of VR wear a pair of goggles with a close-proximity screen in front of the eyes that creates a sensation of being transported into lifelike, three-dimensional worlds. To date, VR has been limited to short-term clinical trials for cancer pain. Moreover, limited research exists on theory-based VR modalities beyond mere distraction, such as VR that employs acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with components of biofeedback and mindfulness. To bridge these gaps, this study seeks to: (1) assess the impact of immersive VR on patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including pain, activity metrics, and opioid use among patients with visceral pain from a digestive tract malignancy; (2) assess differences in PROs, activity metrics, and opioid use between skills-based VR therapy vs. distraction VR therapy; and (3) determine patient-level predictors of VR treatment response in visceral cancer pain. To address these aims, the study will measure PROs and opioid use in 360 patients randomized among 3 groups and follow them for 60 days after enrollment: (1) an enhanced VR group receiving skills-based VR; (2) a distraction-based VR group receiving patient-selected VR videos; and (3) a VR sham control group using a VR headset with 2-D content. The results will inform best practices for the implementation of VR for visceral cancer pain management and guide selection of patient-tailored experiences.

  • MK-2870 Alone or With Other Treatments to Treat Gastrointestinal Cancers (MK-9999-02A)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Researchers want to learn if sacituzumab tirumotecan (MK-2870) alone or with other treatments can treat certain gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The GI cancers being studied are either advanced (the cancer has spread to other parts of the body), or unresectable (the cancer cannot be removed with surgery). The goals of this study are to learn: - About the safety of sacituzumab tirumotecan alone or with other treatments and if people tolerate it - How many people have the cancer respond (get smaller or go away) to treatment

  • Test the Effect of the Drug Larotrectinib in Adults and Children With NTRK-fusion Positive Solid Tumors

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This research study is done to test how well different types of cancer respond to the drug called larotrectinib. The cancer must have a change in a particular gene (NTRK1, NTRK2 or NTRK3). Larotrectinib is a drug that blocks the actions of these NTRK genes in cancer cells and can therefore be used to treat cancer.

  • S095035 as a Single Agent and in Combination in Adult Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors With Deletion of MTAP

    Sorry, not currently recruiting here

    This is a first-in-human Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label study of S095035 as single-agent, or in combination with TNG462 in adult participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors with homozygous deletion of MTAP who have failed to respond to or have progressed after at least 1 prior treatment regimen, and for whom additional effective standard treatment is not available. S095035 is an oral methionine adenosyltransferase 2A [MAT2A] inhibitor. TNG462 is a protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 [PRMT5] inhibitor.
