NCT04144738
The primary objective of this study is to assess the sensitivity for colorectal cancer (CRC) and specificity of the mt-sDNA 2.0 test.
NCT01011478
RATIONALE: Rosuvastatin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rosuvastatin after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It may also keep polyps from forming or colon cancer from coming back. It is not yet known whether rosuvastatin is more effective than a placebo in treating colon cancer that was removed by surgery. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying rosuvastatin to see how well it works compared with placebo in treating patients with stage I or stage II colon cancer that was removed by surgery.
NCT03602079
Open-label, Phase I-II, first-in-human (FIH) study for A166 monotherapy in HER2-expressing or amplified patients who progressed on or did not respond to available standard therapies. Patients must have documented HER2 expression or amplification. The patient must have exhausted available standard therapies. Patients will receive study drug as a single IV infusion. Cycles will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT00002650
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. The use of folic acid may be an effective way to prevent colorectal cancer in patients with polyps that have been surgically removed. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of high-dose folic acid in preventing colorectal cancer in patients who have had polyps surgically removed within 18 months of the trial.
NCT00004860
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of fluorouracil-uracil and leucovorin in treating elderly patients who have metastatic colorectal cancer.
NCT02713529
A multi-center Phase 1b/2 study testing the combination of AMG 820 and pembrolizumab in subjects with select advanced solid tumors.
NCT02890069
The purpose of this study was to combine the PDR001 checkpoint inhibitor with several agents with immunomodulatory activity to identify the doses and schedule for combination therapy and to preliminarily assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacological and clinical activity of these combinations.
NCT02857270
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of an extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK1/2) inhibitor LY3214996 administered alone or in combination with other agents in participants with advanced cancer.
NCT02810652
The purpose of this research study is to addresses the challenge of managing the unique perioperative needs of older cancer patients undergoing surgical resection.
NCT01099449
RATIONALE: Chemoprotective drugs, such as calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate, may prevent neurotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin. It is not yet known which administration schedule of calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate is more effective in preventing neurotoxicity. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying different administration schedules of calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate and comparing how well they work in neurotoxicity in patients with colon cancer or rectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin-based combination chemotherapy.
NCT01975831
This was a Phase 1, open-label, nonrandomized, multicenter study of durvalumab and tremelimumab in subjects with advanced cancers who were not eligible for, declined, or failed standard treatment. The primary study objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and safety profile of the durvalumab and tremelimumab combination. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of durvalumab and tremelimumab, and the antitumor activity (tumor response, progression-free survival \[PFS\], and overall survival \[OS\]) of the durvalumab and tremelimumab combination. (Note: Collection of PK and immunogenicity samples was removed by amendment; analysis was not done.) Exploratory objectives were to evaluate the biological activity of the durvalumab and tremelimumab combination.
NCT04331535
This trial will determine the clinical effectiveness of polygenic risk score testing among patients at high genetic risk for at least one of six diseases (coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, type 2 diabetes mellitus, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, or prostate cancer), measured by time-to-diagnosis of prevalent or incident disease over 24 months.
NCT04575922
This research is being done to study the effects of the combination of ipilimumab, nivolumab, and radiation therapy in people with metastatic microsatellite stable colorectal cancer. This research study involves the following drugs and interventions: * Ipilimumab * Nivolumab * Radiation Therapy
NCT04776837
This is a prospective study addressing the challenge of predicting disease progression and/or recurrence in patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal, pancreatobiliary, or esophagogastric cancer that are receiving anti-cancer therapy.
NCT03668431
This research study is studying a combination of drugs as a possible treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer characterized by BRAF V600E mutation. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Dabrafenib * Trametinib * PDR001
NCT02900664
The purpose of this study was to combine the PDR001 checkpoint inhibitor with each of four agents with immunomodulatory activity to identify the doses and schedule for combination therapy and to preliminarily assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacological and clinical activity of these combinations.
NCT03531632
The primary goal of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MGD007 when combined with MGA012. Pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD), and the anti-tumor activity of the combination of MGD007 and MGA012 will also be assessed.
NCT02833753
This is a Phase I dose escalation study to determine how much chemotherapy can be safely administered into the abdomen while experiencing the fewest possible side effects.
NCT01347645
The purpose of the Phase Ib portion is to find out the highest dose of study drug that can safely be given when tested in a small group of subjects. The purpose of the Phase II portion is to find out how safe the study drug is when taken at the highest dose in a larger group of subjects.
NCT03775850
This study is being conducted to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of EDP1503 alone and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced metastatic colorectal carcinoma, triple-negative breast cancer, and checkpoint inhibitor relapsed tumors
