Santa Monica, CA Paid Clinical Trials

Primary Objective: 1. To determine objective response rate (ORR) according to RECIST v1.1 of pembrolizumab and high-dose pemetrexed in the treatment of patients with chordoma until disease progression. The OOR will be investigator assessed. Secondary Objectives: 1. To describe the adverse events associated with administering pembrolizumab and high-dose pemetrexed combination treatment. 2. To determine disease control rate based on imaging and overall survival. 3. To determine median PFS and PFS rates at 6, 9, 12, and 18 months. 4. To evaluate changes in volumetric tumor measurements based on imaging. 5. To determine the effects of combination treatment on quality of life, assessed by the EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire. 6. To assess tumor evolution over time in patients with chordoma based on imaging, and molecular profiling. 7. To assess the pharmacodynamic effects of treatment in blood. Exploratory Objective: 1. To explore the relationship between molecular phenotype and patient response. Read Less

This study is a Phase 1b/2, dose-escalation, randomized, multicenter study to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and PK of ivaltinostat in combination with capecitabine and capecitabine monotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma whose disease has not progressed on a first line fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy (e.g., FOLFIRINOX). In Phase 1b, 3 dose levels of ivaltinostat will be studied in combination with a fixed dose of capecitabine to determine the RP2D of ivaltinostat. In Phase 2, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the combination of ivaltinostat and capecitabine or to capecitabine monotherapy. A fixed dose for capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally twice daily will be taken on Days 1 to 14, and the RP2D of ivaltinostat will be administered intravenously once a week for 2 weeks, followed by 1 week of rest. One cycle consists of 21 days. Tumor response during study treatment will be assessed every 6 weeks up to Cycle 10, then every 9 weeks afterwards using RECIST v1.1 criteria. Read Less

Phase 1b/2 open-label trial of 225Ac-DOTATATE (RYZ101) in subjects with ER+, HER2-negative unresectable or metastatic breast cancer expressing SSTRs. Read Less

This phase III trial studies how well trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) and tucatinib work in preventing breast cancer from coming back (relapsing) in patients with high risk, HER2 positive breast cancer. T-DM1 is a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called DM1. Trastuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as HER2 receptors, and delivers DM1 to kill them. Tucatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving T-DM1 and tucatinib may work better in preventing breast cancer from relapsing in patients with HER2 positive breast cancer compared to T-DM1 alone. Read Less

Randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, Phase 2 study of INBRX-109 in unresectable or metastatic conventional chondrosarcoma patients. Read Less

The quadratus lumborum (QL) block is a fascial plane block that has been described to provide analgesia from T7-L3 dermatomes. The investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy of QL blocks in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Read Less

The goal of this observational study is to validate a non-invasive, urine-based diagnostic technology for the detection and differentiation of various gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. This research study intends to enroll participants across a range of demographics and GI disease states including colorectal cancer, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), Crohn\'s disease, and Celiac disease, collect urine samples and clinical data, and use artificial intelligence and machine learning to build disease-specific models which can identify and differentiate a participants' specific GI disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the platform identify a disease signal within each disease cohort, compared to normal controls? 2. How well does the test perform (e.g. sensitivity and specificity/false-positive rate)? Read Less

This is a first-in-human, open-label, non-randomized, three-part phase 1 trial of INBRX-109, which is a recombinant humanized tetravalent antibody targeting the human death receptor 5 (DR5). Read Less

RARICO is a pragmatic, randomized, controlled, double-blinded, multi-center trial evaluating the safety and feasibility of nebulized revefenacin in comparison to nebulized ipratropium in patients with COPD and acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. Read Less

This randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy of Diaberine, a berberine-based nutraceutical, in aiding blood sugar regulation and metabolism in 80 participants over 24 weeks. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate OBT076, which is a drug that combines an antibody with an anti-cancer drug. This class of drugs are called Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC). Antibodies are normally produced in the human body by the immune system to fight infections but can be designed to target cancer cells and deliver an anti-cancer drug. OBT076 is composed of an antibody that targets the CD205 protein on cancer cells and delivers an anti-cancer drug which can kill them. OBT076 is an "Investigational Drug", which means that it is still being studied and has not yet been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA) or any other regulatory authorities to be prescribed by doctors for the treatment of metastatic or recurrent solid tumors. The use of OBT076 in this study is investigational. This is a Phase I research study designed to look at several dose levels of the study drug to find the highest dose level that is safe and well-tolerated (does not cause unacceptable side effects), and to examine the effects of the study drug in a small group of research participants. The study will also look at the effectiveness of OBT076 as an anti-cancer therapy. Once the optimal dose is determined and safety is assessed, additional research participants will be treated at the optimal dose level to further evaluate safety and effectiveness. Read Less

In a recent study, researchers let patients choose what medications to go home with after endocrine surgery. This has not been done in outpatient breast surgery, though several institutions have moved towards avoiding opioids altogether after breast surgery. These institutions only prescribed rescue opioids upon request. The aim of this study is to compare a similar "opt-in" protocol for narcotics to usual care (where patients are routinely discharged with opioids) for outpatient breast surgery. This study will be designed as a randomized, controlled trial. When adult patients consent for outpatient breast surgery, the patients will be asked to participate in the study. Patients who are currently using narcotics would be excluded. The investigators would then randomize participants to the "opt-in" protocol versus being provided with a standard opioid prescription after surgery. Patients in the opt-in protocol will be recommended a pain treatment regimen with over-the-counter medications, acetaminophen or ibuprofen. These patients will be reassured that if their pain is uncontrolled after discharge, a narcotic prescription will be called in to their pharmacy if requested. The investigators will assess patient pain scores and medication use in the recovery area using the electronic medical record. The investigators will collect data on patient pain scores and medication use after discharge on a daily basis via phone call or electronically transmitted survey. The investigators will also evaluate patients at the time of their follow-up visits. Any patient phone calls will be routed to study personnel who will fill narcotic prescription requests if requested. Finally, among patients who do receive an opioid prescription, the investigators will track their opioid consumption. Read Less
