NCT06754904
Rationale: The randomized trial NADINA has demonstrated that neoadjuvant treatment with nivolumab with ipilimumab improves event-free survival (EFS) in patients with macroscopic resectable stage III melanoma. In this study, therapeutic lymph node dissection (TLND) was standard of care, showing that patients achieving a major pathological response (MPR, i.e., ≤10% residual viable tumor bed) have an excellent outcome (EFS and Distant Metastasis Free Survival (DMFS)). The PRADO trial indicated that the MPR definition can also be revealed from a surrogate lymph node response, the index lymph node (ILN), allowing sparing the extensive surgery in MPR patients. In these MPR patients the DMFS was 100% after 1 year and 98% after 2 years, and recurrence-free survival (RFS) was 95% after 1 year and 93% after 2 years. Given that TLND is associated with morbidity and has a significant impact on health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) and healthcare costs, this study aims to prospectively investigate the safety of omitting TLND in patients who have an MPR within the ILN after neoadjuvant immunotherapy. Objectives: To investigate whether TLND can be safely omitted in patients with macroscopic resectable stage III (B/C/D) melanoma achieving an MPR within the ILN upon neoadjuvant treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ipilimumab and nivolumab). Study design: This study is a prospective, single-arm phase 2 nationwide multicenter trial. Study population: Inclusion criteria for study participants are as follows: * Patients must be eligible for neoadjuvant treatment * Patients must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of macroscopic resectable stage III melanoma (stage III B/C/D) with one or more macroscopic lymph node metastasis * The patient must have a measurable tumor burden that qualifies (according to clinical practice) for neoadjuvant therapy Intervention: Omitting TLND in patients who achieve an MPR in the ILN following neoadjuvant ipilimumab and nivolumab. Main study endpoints: The two coprimary endpoints are 2-year Local Recurrence Free Survival (LRFS) and 2-year DMFS.
NCT04217473
This is an open-label, phase 1, first-in-human (FIH), dose-escalation, multicenter, multinational trial evaluating the safety of oncolytic adenovirus TILT-123 as monotherapy and in association with T-cell therapy with TILs in metastatic melanoma patients.
NCT07107178
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety, tolerability and preliminary effectiveness of a treatment for patients with advanced melanoma,regardless of gender, aged between 18 and 75 years (inclusive). Participants will receive the investigational product intravenously every two or three weeks. The treatment will continue for a maximum of two years for those who do not show signs of disease progression or experience intolerable side effects.
NCT00591500
The goal of this study is to find out if some people are more likely to get melanoma, a form of skin cancer, than others are. To do this we will compare people who have had more than one melanoma to people who have had only one melanoma and to people who are similar but who have not developed melanoma. People respond to the environment in different ways. Some may be born with genes that make them more likely to get this type of skin cancer. Each person has many ways to repair normal damage to their genes. Specific genes may affect the repair of sun damage. Other genes affect the way the skin itself reacts to the sun. We want to find out which genes have normal changes in them and lead to different responses to exposures, such as the sun. We also want to find out if sun habits are related to the way these genes work.
NCT03729596
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) pharmacodynamics and preliminary antitumor activity of vobramitamab duocarmazine (MGC018) in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients with solid tumors will be enrolled in the Dose Escalation Phase; Cohort Expansion will include metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), and melanoma. Patients who do not experience unacceptable toxicity or meet criteria for permanent discontinuation may undergo additional cycles for up to two years. Patients in Cohort Expansion will be followed for survival every 3 months for 2 years following last dose.
NCT05015816
Melanoma (skin cancer) frequently develops from existing moles on the skin. Current practice relies on expert dermatologists being able to successfully identify new/changing moles in individuals with multiple moles. Total body photography (TBP-high-quality images of the entire skin) can track and monitor moles over time to detect melanoma. However, TBP is currently used as a visual guide when diagnosing melanoma, requiring visual inspection of each mole sequentially. This process is challenging, time-consuming and inefficient. Artificial intelligence (AI) is ideally suited to automate this process. Comparing baseline TBP images to newly acquired photographs, AI techniques can be used to accurately identify and highlight changing moles, and potentially distinguish harmless moles from cancerous changes. Astrophysicists face a similar problem when they map the night sky to detect new events, such as exploding stars. Using AI, based on two or more images, astrophysicists detect new events and accurately predict how they will appear subsequently. This project, called MoleGazer, is a collaboration with astrophysicists aiming to apply AI methods that are currently used for astronomical sky surveys, to TBP images. The MoleGazer algorithm, developed at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, will automatically identify the appearance of new moles and characterise changes in existing ones, when new TBP images are taken. To optimise this MoleGazer algorithm TBP images will be taken at multiple time-points, as there are no existing datasets of TBP images that are publicly available. The investigators invite a) high-risk patients attending skin cancer screening clinics to attend sequential three-monthly TBP imaging and clinical assessment and b) any patient who undergoes TBP as standard care to share images so that the investigators can develop the MoleGazer algorithm. The ultimate goal is for the MoleGazer algorithm to 'map moles' over a patient's lifetime to detect changes, with the eventual aim to detect melanoma as early as possible.
NCT05303493
Modulating the gut microbiome to improve response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors is an active area of study. Prebiotic substances (compounds which positively shift the gut microbiome) are a reliable and safe method of gut microbiome modulation. Data suggest that the berry Camu Camu (CC), also known as Myrciaria dubia has prebiotic potential to enrich Akkermansia muciniphila, a bacterium shown to alleviate metabolic disorders and improve ICI efficacy in preclinical models. Our primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of CC prebiotic in patients with advanced NSCLC and melanoma in combination with standard-of-care ICI.
NCT07092410
This is an open-label, prospective, single arm study conducted in Germany to investigate local treatment (i.e. surgery or radiotherapy or electrochemotherapy) of metastases showing no response to encorafenib (E) + binimetinib (B) combination therapy and continuation of EB therapy afterwards. The purpose of this study is to determine PFS of individual patients treated with local intervention while continuing therapy with EB.
NCT06549439
This prospective single center phase I trials aims to assess feasibility and safety of electron FLASH RT for treatment of melanoma skin metastases. Feasibility will be defined as FLASH delivery with an accuracy of +/-10% for each fraction, safety will be confirmed if a maximum of 2 out of 6 patients develop dose limited toxicity.
NCT05308901
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab to treat metastatic uveal melanoma.
NCT05868707

NCT04904185
With the introduction of checkpoint inhibitors substantial improvements have been made in the treatment of malignant melanoma (MM). Despite this still a a subset of patients, approximately 50 %, experience no response to therapy. One of the strategies to overcome these obstacles have been ACT with tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). Most TIL based ACT products are non-specifically expanded providing growth preference to co-infiltrated virus specific T cells, and it is currently challenging to expand T cells in an antigen-specific manner, while at the same time obtaining the ideal functional characteristics for specific and strong tumour-killing capacity with sufficient persistence. In this phase I trial artificial antigen-presenting scaffolds for antigen-driven T cell expansion are used. These scaffolds will generate a MASE-T cell product enriched for selected specificities towards antigens known to be expressed by melanoma cells The aim of the study is to demonstrate that treatment with af MASE-T cell product i safe and feasible. Further the study will elucidate whether treament with the MASE-T cell product leads to objective responses and improves progression free survival (PFS).
NCT04616443
This phase Ib study evaluates the safety and efficacy of OH2 in combination with HX008, an anti-PD-1 antibody, in patients with Melanoma. OH2 is an oncolytic virus developed upon genetic modifications of the herpes simplex virus type 2 strain HG52, allowing the virus to selectively replicate in tumors. Meanwhile, the delivery of the gene encoding human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) may induce a more potent antitumor immune response.
NCT02908672
This is a Phase III, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab + cobimetinib + vemurafenib compared with placebo + cobimetinib + vemurafenib in patients with previously untreated BRAFv600 mutation-positive metastatic or unresectable locally advanced melanoma.
NCT07072143
The PARTNER study is an international, prospective, observational study of paediatric patients with very rare tumours.
NCT05033678
The study has 2 parts. Part 1 will investigate the effects of introducing teledermoscopy in clinical practice, more specifically the change in referral patterns, the risk of undetected skin cancers and the effect on diagnostic accuracy in general practitioners. Part 2 will investigate how to introduce artificial intelligence (AI) within teledermocsopy. In this study the investigators will measure the diagnostic accuracy of teledermoscopic assessors that had access to the results of artificial intelligence algorithm compared to those who did not. Data will be collected through teledermoscopic referrals, patient records, national registries and questionnairs.
NCT04493203
This is Phase II trial of nivolumab plus axitinib for patients with unresectable stage III or IV melanoma who have progressed on prior anti-PD1 therapy with or without concomitant anti-CTLA4 therapy. Patients will receive treatment with nivolumab 480 mg intravenously every 4 weeks and axitinib 5 mg twice daily by mouth. Patients may continue both agents for up to two years if they do not experience disease progression or dose-limiting toxicities.
NCT07063875
A recent clinical trial found that after 36 months, patients taking tebentafusp had a median survival of 21.6 months, compared to 16.9 months for those in the control group. Since recruitment for tebentafusp in metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) has ended, a new trial is starting to test whether adding IL-2 can help overcome resistance to tebentafusp and improve its effectiveness. This study aims to answer: 1. Can combining tebentafusp with IL-2 improve tumor response and overall survival? 2. What are the benefits and side effects of this combination therapy? All participants will receive both IL-2 and tebentafusp in a 28-day treatment cycle. The dosing schedule is as follows: Cycle1: Day1-3 IL-2 Day4 Tebentafusp Day 10 IL-2 Day 11 Tebentafusp Day 17 IL-2 Day 18 Tebentafusp Day 24 IL-2 Day 25 Tebentafusp Cycle 2 \& thereafter Day 1 IL-2 Day 2 Tebentafusp Day 8 IL-2 Day 9 Tebentafusp Day 15 IL-2 Day 16 Tebentafusp Day 22 IL-2 Day 23 Tebentafusp

Biotherapies are biological (extracted from an organism or living tissue) or biotechnological drugs used in the treatment of multiple conditions, such as autoimmune inflammatory diseases, cancers, and hematologic diseases. In recent years, these biotherapies have notably emerged in the treatment of cancers and hematologic disorders. As such, most patients with cancers or hematologic diseases will likely receive a biotherapy as part of their care pathway. These biotherapies are associated with various side effects, including hypersensitivity or allergic reactions, which are often poorly characterized in clinical trials. These reactions manifest as symptoms without specific dermatologic or allergologic semiology (such as itching, erythema, shortness of breath, sometimes digestive issues, or discomfort, and in some cases, an anaphylactic reaction). Unlike other treatments, such as antibiotics and neuromuscular blockers, there are currently no guidelines on the concentrations to use in skin tests for biotherapies. We propose conducting prospective clinical research to scientifically establish the concentrations to be used when investigating hypersensitivity to a biotherapy, in line with best practice recommendations for drug skin testing.
NCT03336606
