Cancer Paid Clinical Trials in North Carolina

This is an open-label, Phase 1/2 study to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of APL-5125 for the treatment of selected locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with particular focus on Colorectal carcinoma (CRC). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a combination of nivolumab, ipilimumab, cabazitaxel and carboplatin in men with neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) or other aggressive variants of prostate cancer (AVPC). This study will also investigate biomarkers to gain a better understanding of how the drug combination of nivolumab, ipilimumab, cabazitaxel and carboplatin affects these types of prostate cancer and the immune system. Eligible subjects will receive up to 10 cycles of nivolumab, ipilimumab, carboplatin and cabazitaxel followed by maintenance nivolumab and ipilimumab. Subjects may continue receiving study drugs until cancer progression, severe toxicity, withdrawal of consent, 3 years from the initial dose of study drugs or study termination, whichever occurs earlier. Subjects will be followed for 3 years from the initial dose of study drugs. Read Less

This is a prospective, open-label Phase 3 study to evaluate copper Cu 64 PSMA I\&T injection for PET/CT imaging in patients with newly diagnosed unfavorable intermediate high-risk, high-risk or very high-risk prostate cancer. Read Less

The goal of this study is to create a data set to add to Carevive's registry from real world clinical and patient reported data collected using an electronic care planning system (CPS) with remote symptom monitoring that is used in routine care for cancer patients on active treatment. Patients will complete a baseline survey in person using a secured device or remotely using their own electronic device in a location of their choice. Weekly electronic patient reported outcome (PRO) surveys are collected from the patients using the Carevive platform for a minimum of 12 weeks. Patients may continue weekly surveys as long as they are receiving treatment. Read Less

This study explores the overall feasibility, impact, and satisfaction of using the "mHealth app" on clinic workflow for Black or African American women diagnosed with breast cancer. The "mHealth app" which can be used as a platform to share clinical trial education and communication, was created and tested in previous steps of this study. Read Less

The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects (good and bad) omeprazole and cabazitaxel, or omeprazole and docetaxel, has on participants and their condition. Investigators believe omeprazole may help the other medications work. Read Less

A two arm pilot study investigating the rate of pathologic complete response in patients with vitamin D deficiency and triple negative breast cancer undergoing standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy + vitamin D supplementation, including an observational arm to describe response in patients who are not deficient. Investigators hypothesize that vitamin D supplementation during neoadjuvant chemotherapy in operable triple negative breast cancer patients with vitamin D deficiency, will increase the rate of pathologic complete response chain reaction to that of vitamin D sufficient patients based on historical controls.

The PROACT LUNG study is a prospective multi-center observational study to validate a blood-based test for the early detection of lung cancer by collecting blood samples from high-risk participants who will undergo a routine, standard-of-care screening Low-Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT). Read Less

The purpose of this study is to use intra-treatment 18FDG-PET/CT during definitive radiation therapy for human papillomavirus (HPV)-related oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) as an imaging biomarker to identify and select patients with a favorable response for chemoradiation dose de-escalation. This study will prospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes for patients undergoing dose de-escalation. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to provide a registry of participants in order to assess the acute adverse event rates following ablative radiotherapy for metastatic disease. Read Less

Breast reconstruction is a critical component of breast cancer treatment because it restores quality of life and body image after mastectomy. However, Spanish-speaking Latina women are significantly less likely to undergo reconstruction (13.5% vs. 41% for non-Latina White or highly acculturated Latina), meet with a reconstructive surgeon (18.1% vs. 72.6% for non-Latina White), or receive adequate information. Spanish-speaking Latina breast cancer survivors who do not have reconstruction experience the highest rates of decisional dissatisfaction and regret, compared to any other group of breast cancer survivors. Persons diagnosed with cancer who primarily speak Spanish and identify as Latin American (hereafter we use the term "Spanish-speaking Latinx/a cancer survivor") are less likely to receive guideline-concordant treatment and more likely to have poor cancer outcomes. One way to improve guideline-concordant treatment is through shared decision-making and decision support. When a decision is preference-sensitive (the right choice depends on the person's preferences), such as decisions about breast reconstruction after mastectomy, decision aids are effective. Unfortunately, most decision aids in the United States are written in English and developed or tested with few Latinx people. The BREASTChoice decision aid, proven effective in two randomized controlled trials, addresses knowledge gaps in breast cancer survivors. This study focuses on developing a Spanish-language version of BREASTChoice, which was previously unavailable. For that reason, the Cultural and Linguistic Adaptation Framework (CLAF) incorporates qualitative and experiential data to adapt BREASTChoice. The adaptation process takes place in five steps: appraise, review, assess, solicit, and integrate. Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether accelerated radiotherapy (involving 6 treatments per week) is better than standard radiotherapy (involving 5 treatments per week) at treating cancer of the head and neck when initiated more than 6 weeks after surgery. Read Less
