Cancer Clinical Trials in Houston, TX

This is a Phase II open-label trial of neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy with Atezolizumab and CAPOX followed by surgery and potentially adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with localized resectable pMMR adenocarcinoma of the colon with a target accrual of 28 patients. The investigators will explore if appropriately timed neoadjuvant CAPOX with anti-PD-L1 mAb (Atezolizumab) can be administered safely and feasibly, and that this combination will lead to improved clinical response associated with enhanced numbers of immune cells in surgically resected colon tumors. Patients will receive 4 cycles of atezolizumab in combination with 4 cycles of CAPOX (atezolizumab will be administered prior to chemotherapy) before standard of care surgical resection. Following surgery, patients still considered to be at high-risk of recurrence (per SOC guidelines) will receive further adjuvant chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX), based on the discretion of the treating oncologist/investigator. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) dynamic change status will be analyzed through collection of blood samples throughout different stages of the patient's neoadjuvant treatment regimen (baseline, pre-neoadjuvant therapy, mid-neoadjuvant, post-neoadjuvant therapy, and during postoperative period) as a marker of early read on efficacy. The end of the study for each patient enrolled will be at the 6 month postoperative visit. On Study Protocol: Patients will be followed up for an efficacy follow-up phase during the first 6 months after surgery (week 2 \& months 3, 6 visits). All assessments beyond the 6 month visit will be performed under standard of care surveillance office visits. Off Study Protocol: Thereafter they will enter a survival follow-up phase per standard of care protocols. Patients will be seen every 6 months starting at month 12 until month 36. All collection of research-specific assessments including whole blood, stool collection and quality of life questionnaires will be optional beyond the 6 month postop visit (months 12-36). Read Less

The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of elacestrant versus standard endocrine therapy in participants with node-positive, Estrogen Receptor-positive (ER+), Human Epidermal Growth Factor-2 negative (HER2-) early breast cancer with high risk of recurrence. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of AZD4360 in adult participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumours selected for expression of CLDN18.2. Read Less

In the phase I part, to determine the recommended doses (RD) and dosing regimens of \[177Lu\]Lu-NeoB in combination with capecitabine in adult patients with gastrin releasing peptide receptor positive, estrogen receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 negative metastatic breast cancer after progression on previous endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. In the phase II part, to evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity of two different doses/regimens of \[177Lu\]Lu-NeoB in combination with capecitabine (dose optimization). Read Less

This is a Phase III open-label study to assess if camizestrant improves outcomes compared to standard adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer with intermediate-high or high risk for disease recurrence who completed definitive locoregional therapy (with or without chemotherapy). The planned duration of treatment in either arm within the study will be 7 years. Read Less

TARGET-HCC is a longitudinal, observational study of patients being managed for HCC in usual clinical practice. TARGET-HCC will create a research registry of participants with HCC within academic and community real-world practices in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of the entire spectrum of current and future therapies across diverse populations.

This is a first-in-human, multicenter, open-label, phase 1 study to evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of CID-078, a Cyclin A/B-RxL inhibitor, in patients with advanced solid tumors. Read Less

The purpose of the Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection (PRECEDE) Consortium is to conduct research on multiple aspects of early detection and prevention of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by establishing a multisite cohort of individuals with family history of PDAC and/or individuals carrying pathogenic/likely pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) in genes linked to PDAC risk for longitudinal follow up.

This study investigates if circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and other tumor-related molecules/chemicals released in the blood can help doctors predict if colorectal cancer may come back or spread. Tumors shed DNA and other cancer related chemicals into the blood that can be identified and studied further to provide information about the cancer. Information gathered from this study may help researchers better understand if ctDNA found in the blood can predict whether colorectal cancer may come back or spread. Read Less

The purpose of this trial is to estimate the recommended dose (RD) of \[177Lu\]Lu-NeoB in combination with ribociclib and fulvestrant in participants with estrogen receptor (ER) positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) negative (HER2-) and gastrin releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) positive (GRPR+) advanced breast cancer experiencing early relapse from (neo)adjuvant endocrine therapy or who have progressed on endocrine therapy in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor for advanced disease.

This is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, global study to explore the efficacy and safety of volrustomig in women with high-risk LACC (FIGO 2018 stage IIIA to IVA cervical cancer) who have not progressed following platinum-based CCRT. Read Less

This is a phase 1, first in human, dose escalation study for safety and feasibility of multi-dose dendritic cell (DC) therapy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) including adenosquamous carcinoma administered after surgical resection of PDAC. Read Less
