Solid Cancers

The goal of the Clonal Hematopoiesis Chemotherapy and Radiation Effects (CH CARE) Study is to understand how the presence or absence of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) influences outcomes in people receiving chemotherapy and radiation for solid cancers. The study will collect biospecimens and clinical information. These data will be used to define clinical and molecular features that predict the presence of high-risk clonal hematopoiesis (CH) in patients exposed to cytotoxic anti-cancer therapy. Predictive features will be utilized to identify populations of cancer patients and survivors who are at the highest risk of developing therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs). Ultimately this study will result in the development of a novel novel risk prediction algorithm for t-MNs in patients with solid cancers and drive potential therapeutic approaches to intercept progression from CH to often fatal t-MNs.

Protocol Title: Protocol Title: The Effect of using Weighted Blanket on anxiety, stress, depression and comfort level among Patients with cancer undergoing intravenous (IV) anticancer therapy and its feasibility of use by nurses compared to routine care; a Randomized controlled study. Study Tools: VAS-A, ESAS-R, DASS-21 and comfort level scale will be used to study the patients' population. A survey will be used to assess the feasibility of using the weighted blankets on patients receiving IV anticancer therapy. Methodology: Consented patients will be stratified per gender then randomized to either ARM1: The interventional arm, Weighted blanket, or ARM2: The control arm, Standard of care. (Regular blanket). The weighted blanket will be administered in the two cycles of IV anticancer therapy for the interventional arm, exploring the temporal trajectory of anxiety, depression, and psychological distress, and investigating the potential of a weighted blanket intervention to mitigate these symptoms. The tools will be administered according to the study protocol. Day Care Unit nurses will be assessed on how feasible they think the blankets are for patients. Expected Outcome: WB is expected to reduce the anxiety in patients undergoing IV anticancer therapy and reduce the nurses' burden when caring for those patients.

This is a translational, open-label, multi-site, prospective cohort study aiming to identify and to monitor immunological biomarkers associated with therapeutic response to immune checkpoints blockade (ICB), in patients with multiple types of advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) solid cancers. The study will be conducted on a population of patients receiving ICB (anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 or anti-CTLA4, alone or in combination) in the context of either routine care or a clinical study protocol. Patients with any of the following tumor types may be enrolled in the trial: * Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), * Head and neck cancer, * Melanoma, * Bladder cancer, * Other tumor types when Immuno-Oncology agent is expected to be efficient or when a clinical trial is an option. For each included patient, tumor biopsy specimens and blood samples will be collected at different time points. All included patients will be followed-up until progression. After this date, survival data will be collected.

Through this study funded by the Florida Cancer Innovation Fund, First Ascent will demonstrate state-wide feasibility of providing xDRIVE Functional Precision Medicine + Artificial Intelligence platform by assessing patient clinical benefit and health economics impacts. As this is a feasibility study, results will be returned to the physician and the physician may use the data to inform the next line of treatment. The investigator will run a prospective single-arm feasibility study providing the xDRIVE FPM AI platform to n = 210+ cancer patients throughout the state of Florida, especially those from underserved populations (pediatric patients and patients in Black, Brown, Hispanic, and rural communities).

Lattice radiation therapy (LRT) is a spatially fractionated radiotherapy technique that creates alternating high - and low - dose areas within a tumor to enhance local control and reduce toxicity to surrounding tissues. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining LRT with immunotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, through a Phase II clinical trial. Patients will receive specific - dose irradiation using a medical linear accelerator. Within the GTV of the largest tumor, spheres (0.5 - 3 cm in diameter) will be created as high - dose targets (LRT targets), spaced 2.0 - 5.0 cm apart. The LRT targets must be drawn within the GTV, avoiding blood vessels, with a margin of at least 1 cm from the GTV margin, and a volume ratio of 1% - 10% of the GTV. For a single lesion, the D95 of the GTV will be ≥1 Gy/fraction, and the D95 of the LRT target will be 8 - 12 Gy/fraction, with minimal possible single - fraction doses to organs at risk. All other irradiated metastases will receive low - dose radiotherapy (100 - 300 cGy × 5 fractions), except for brain and bone metastases, which will be treated with palliative radiotherapy as per clinical routine. Immunotherapy will be administered during or within one week after radiotherapy.

This is a phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of CAR-T in patients with CEA-positive advanced malignant solid tumors, and to obtain the maximum tolerated dose of CAR-T and phase II Recommended dose.

This study is a single-arm, open-label, multi-center Phase I/II clinical trial, consisting of Part A: the Phase I dose escalation stage, and Part B: the Phase II expansion stage. The objective of the Phase I dose escalation stage is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic characteristics, and preliminary efficacy of JY016 injection in patients with advanced solid tumors expressing EGFR (immunohistochemistry 1+, 2+, or 3+). In the Phase II stage, the efficacy of JY016 in pancreatic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck with EGFR expression will be further evaluated.

This study is a single-arm, open-label, single-administration dose-escalation study.

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer therapy, providing unprecedented responses in a wide range of malignancies. However, they induced various immune-related adverse events (iRAE) that can be life-threatening. About 20% of patients treated with an ICI monotherapy, and up to 60% of patients treated with a combination of ICIs, experienced a severe iRAE. Most side effects are reversible if managed early, but can affect survival and quality of life, leading to treatment interruptions or hospitalization. Some of these irAEs, particularly those affecting hormonal functions, may be irreversible and persist even after treatment discontinuation. The development of predictive biomarkers of such toxicities is an unmet medical need. The variety of mechanisms involved in iRAE, and the lack of effective animal models, could probably explain why the topic remains largely unexplored. To date, some biomarkers predictive of the occurrence of iRAE, irrespective of the type of organ affected, have been identified by state-of-the-art techniques on small cohorts prior to treatment initiation, but none is individually robust enough to be used in daily practice. We hypothesize that a signature derived from the integrative analysis of various biological parameters (immunomonitoring, auto-immunity features, viral monitoring, microbiota monitoring, fragmentome analysis, pharmacokinetics, radiomics and genetics), available in routine hospital practice, could answer this question, and thus enable the development of specific prevention strategies The objectives are : Primary objective: Identify a baseline predictive signature for severe iRAE, irrespective of the type of organ affected. Secondary objectives: * Identify a predictive signature for severe iRAE including baseline and T1 data, irrespective of the type of organ affected. * Identify a baseline predictive signature for organ-specific severe iRAE. * Identify a predictive signature for organ-specific severe iRAE including baseline and T1 data. * Identify a baseline predictive signature for severe iRAE, irrespective of the type of organ affected, for patient receiving an anti-PD(L)1 in monotherapy. * Identify a baseline predictive signature for severe iRAE, irrespective of the type of organ affected, for patient receiving an anti-PD(L)1 in combination. * Identify a baseline predictive signature for severe iRAE, irrespective of the type of organ affected, for each specific immunotherapy received. * Compare the predictive signatures between responders and non-responders according to RECIST 1.1 in order not to overlook the influence of clinical response on the variability observed. * Describe the results obtained for each biological parameter between severe irAEs and non-severe irAEs patients. * Describe patient-reported outcomes and quality of life parameters.

This is a translational, multicentric, prospective cohort study aiming to identify and to monitor immunological biomarkers associated with therapeutic response to immune checkpoints blockade (ICB), and investigate the immunological dynamics associated with neo-adjuvant immunotherapy in patients with multiple types of early stage solid cancers treated with ICB ± chemotherapy or other therapies, prior to surgery (and after surgery if adjuvant ICB treatment is also administered). Patients with any of the following tumor types may be enrolled in the trial: Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), Head and neck cancer, Melanoma, Bladder cancer, Other tumor types when Immuno-Oncology agent is expected to be efficient in a neo-adjuvant setting (whether in standard of care or within a clinical trial). For each included patient, blood samples will be collected at different time points. Tumor samples will be made available for the research however, no biopsy will be performed specifically for this study. All included patients will be followed up for 5 years after baseline.

This is a Phase Ib/II clinical study. The Phase Ib dose-escalation study aims to evaluate and determine the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of TCC1727 in combination with benmelstobart /olaparib /topotecanfor patients with advanced solid tumors. The Phase II expansion study will assess the efficacy and safety of TCC1727 combined with benmelstobart /olaparib/topotecanin selected advanced solid tumor indications. The study pre-specifies three treatment combinations, with Combination 1 (TCC1727 + benmelstobart) being prioritized for initial evaluation. The decision to proceed with Combination 2 and Combination 3will be based on clinical data from Combination 1.

This study is a single cohort, open label exploratory clinical trial aimed at observing and evaluating the efficacy and safety of Tunlametinib (HL-085) in the treatment of refractory solid tumors with advanced metastatic non melanoma. It is expected that the ORR of Tunlametinib (HL-085) treatment can reach 20%. According to the literature results, the experimental group rate is 0.2 and the target value rate is 0.02. If the bilateral alpha is 0.05 and the beta is 0.2, the sample size is calculated as 12 cases in the experimental group. Considering a 20% dropout rate, a total of 15 cases are required.

This is a first-in-human (FIH), first-in-class, Phase I/IIa, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of EP0089 (study drug). Study drug will initially be given via intravenous (IV) infusion once every 2 weeks (Q2W), with one treatment cycle defined as 14 days. The study will enroll patients with advanced solid tumours for whom no standard therapy exists or for whom standard therapy has failed. An independent Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) will review safety data at regular intervals to ensure participant safety and support dose escalation decisions.

The thoraco-abdomino-pelvic (TAP) scanner is crucial for assessing and monitoring solid cancers. However, advancements in scanner technology have led to a significant increase in data volume, from 100 images per exam 20 years ago to 2,000 today. The rising number of cancer cases and treatments requiring closer monitoring further strain the workload, prolonging interpretation time and causing delays in therapeutic management and adjustments. The limited number of radiologists contributes to this saturation, increasing the risk of missing metastatic lesions, especially in the lungs, liver, bones, peritoneum, and lymph nodes. The RECIST 1.1 criteria, introduced 15 years ago for standardized follow-up, are useful but time-consuming to implement, resulting in only a small fraction of oncology CT reports using them.

This study is a multicenter, prospective, observational study. The study included patients aged 65 and older with solid tumors requiring systemic anti-tumor therapy. All patients underwent screening using the sG8 scale before the start of treatment, followed by routine treatment based on a plan developed through clinician decision-making. The study did not intervene in any way with the patients' diagnosis and treatment, and relevant clinical data during the treatment process were recorded accurately for follow-up patients. Study data were obtained from the electronic medical record databases and hospital information systems of multiple centers, including Sichuan Cancer Hospital. Patient clinicopathological features, pathological diagnoses, clinical stages, previous treatment histories, as well as anti-tumor treatment regimens after patient enrollment, drug dosages per cycle, treatment start times, incidence and grades of adverse events (AEs), and tumor response were extracted and collected from the medical records. All data were entered, managed, quality-controlled, exported, and analyzed through a real-world data management platform (RWDMP).

A Phase I, open-label, first-in-human study to determine the MTD, recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of LXP1788 Injection in patients with advanced solid tumor. Patients with advanced solid tumors that are refractory to currently available therapies or for whom no effective treatment is available will be selected. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of LXP1788 Injection 2. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of LXP1788 Injection

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and prilimary efficacy of a PARG inhibitor DAT-2645 in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors harboring BRCA1/2 loss of function alterations and/or other defects in the DNA damage repair (DDR) pathway.

This project aims to monitor the innocuity/safety profile of cyclotron-produced \[68Ga\]-PSMA-617 PET imaging in PSMA-expressing cancers. It is a single-site, pragmatic, non-randomized and open-label study, with no control group. Although prostate cancers constitute the usual recommended population for this PET modality, recent evidences suggest that most solid tumors express substantial amount of PSMA in their neovasculature. As such, all cancers (excluding non-solid cancers) will be eligible for \[68Ga\]-PSMA-617 PET imaging in this trial, for as long as their tumors express PSMA. This study also aims to instigate the use of \[68Ga\]-PSMA-617 in the routine standard-of-care for detection and follow-up of eligible cancers. FInally, this project seeks to gather information about the impact on patient management this novel PET modality will have over the current standard-of-care.
