Neoplasms Clinical Trials

This is a first-in-human study evaluating the anti-T cell immunoglobulin and mucin containing protein-3 (TIM-3) antibody TSR-022. The study will be conducted in 2 parts with Part 1 consisting of dose escalation and Part 2 dose expansion. Part 1 will determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TSR-022 and Part 2 will evaluate the antitumor activity of TSR-022 in combination with TSR-042 or docetaxel and as monotherapy. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of a technology-based intervention for managing nausea and vomiting in older adults with cancer. Participants will be randomized to either an intervention or control group. Outcomes such as symptom severity, quality of life, and resource use will be examined. Read Less

The Cancer Experience Registry®: An Online Survey Research Study to Understand the Experiences of Those Impacted By a Cancer Diagnosis. The Registry is a web-based platform to distribute cross-sectional and longitudinal surveys. Study surveys are designed based on input from advisor experts, including patients and caregivers, and focus on the social, emotional, physical, financial and decision-making experiences of those who have been diagnosed with cancer and their caregivers. Findings contribute toward enhancing care for patients, survivors and caregivers via programming and policy initiatives. Read Less

This research study will investigate the effect of physical therapy intervention on the function of the foot and ankle in children and adolescents with cancer not involving the brain or spinal cord. Children undergoing treatment for cancer can suffer from decreased flexibility, strength, balance and endurance from the cancer and from direct effects of the chemotherapy agents. These deficits have been shown to continue years after treatment end with adult survivors of cancer being less physically active then their siblings. Children, whose chemotherapy includes neurotoxic agents such as vincristine, can develop damage to their peripheral nervous system affecting the strength, sensation, and flexibility in their hands and feet. This can then lead to a change in their walking pattern and likely contributes to decreased physical activity level and fatigue. The principal investigator is currently involved in research with Dr. Laura Gilchrist and Dr. Mary C. Hooke establishing the reliability and validity of a measurement tool to quantify peripheral neuropathy, identifying physical impairments of children with cancer during treatment, and comparing physical performance in children after treatment completion with and without physical therapy intervention. The principal investigator is also completing data analysis on a pilot study investigating the use of ankle foot orthotics in children and adolescents with non-CNS cancer. In this study, the investigators will further the research by measuring the effect of physical therapy intervention on measurements involving the function and structure of the ankle and foot. The investigators will compare participants who have and have not received physical therapy intervention during cancer treatment by administering measurements detailing the function of the foot and ankle in order to further evaluate the benefit of physical therapy for children with cancer. Physical therapy intervention involving children and adolescents with cancer focuses on minimizing the physical impairments caused by chemotherapy and radiation treatment, as well as promoting normal development of motor skills typically obtained by a child in their age group. In the oncology population, physical therapy often targets the foot and ankle as this is most affected by peripheral neuropathy. Interventions include strengthening, balance training, stretching, and orthotic use to allow normal motor skills. Families are instructed in exercises that can be completed at home to further improve their function. This study will examine the difference in the function of the foot and ankle years after intervention in participants who have and have not received these interventions. The investigators will measure neuropathy, ankle flexibility, ankle strength, foot posture, gait mechanics, and endurance in order to fully examine the foot and ankle as well as evaluate relationships between the variables in long-term survivors of pediatric cancer.

The overall aim is to describe disease-free survival (DFS) in early stage cancer patients and three-year overall survival (OS) outcomes in advanced stage cancer patients receiving Advanced Integrative Oncology (AIO) treatment in a prospective consecutive case series outcomes study. We will collect data and study outcomes for patients with cancer who receive care at AIMS Institute. Read Less
