Oncolytic Adenovirus(H101) Combined With PD-1 Inhibitors in Patients With Advanced Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Oncolytic Adenovirus(H101) combined with PD-1 inhibitor in patients with advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma who have previously been resistant to advanced PD-1 inhibitors.
dENdritic Cell Therapy Combined With SURgEry in Mesothelioma
The ENSURE trial is an open label, single center, phase 1, feasibility study. Sixteen adult patients diagnosed with resectable epithelioid malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) will be enrolled following first-line chemotherapy. Before standard-of-care chemotherapy, a leukapheresis will be performed and monocytes will be used for differentiation to dendritic cells (DCs) using …
Ga-68 FAPI PET Before Immunotherapy
It is aimed to evaluate FAP expression and its success in predicting treatment response before immunotherapy used in the treatment of malignant mesothelioma with Ga68 FAPI PET/CT imaging, which allows in vivo evaluation of FAP expression, which is thought to be associated with immunosuppression and resistance to immunotherapy.
Identification of Prognostic and Predictive Biomarkers of Toxicity in Patients With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma and Treated With High Doses of Radiotherapy (MESORTIBO)
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a tumour that originates from the pleural layers (visceral and parietal) that envelop the lungs and the inner wall of the thoracic cage. In other tumour contexts, numerous studies have demonstrated a synergistic effect between RT and Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICIs), mainly due to immunogenic …
Comparing the Diagnostic Sensitivity and Specificity of Pleural Fluid N-Terminal Pro B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) and Other Biochemical Gradient Criteria in Distinguishing Heart Failure and Non-heart Failure Related Pleural Effusions (CENTRE Study)
To assess the discriminative properties of pleural fluid (PF) N-terminal-proB-type-natriuretic-peptide (NTproBNP) levels in identifying heart failure (HF)-associated pleural effusions (PE).
IFN-γ Combined With T Cells in the Treatment of Refractory Malignant Pleural Effusion and Ascites
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of IFN- Y combined with T cells in the treatment of refractory malignant pleural effusion and acties, using a multicenter, single-arm, open design.
Testing the Addition of Immunotherapy Before Surgery for Patients With Sarcomatoid Mesothelioma
This phase II trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of giving immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) before surgery for controlling disease in patients with stage I-IIIa sarcomatoid mesothelioma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the …
Evaluation of Response by FLT PET in Mesothelioma
Pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive tumor that affects the pleura and originates from mesothelial cells. If untreated, median survival is 4-12 months following diagnosis. Asbestos exposure is a risk factor associated with 80% of cases. After the 1980s, regulations controlling the use of asbestos ensured that cases were limited. …
Value of Pleural Lavage Cytology in Resectable Esophageal Carcinoma Eastern Cooperative Thoracic Oncology Projects 2005, ECTOP-2005)
Disease recurrence and metastasis are common after curative treatment for patients with esophageal cancer. Thus, it is important to identify the risk factors to predict disease recurrence and metastasis. Pleural lavage cytology (PLC) is reported to be associated with disease recurrence and patient survival in lung cancer, but the value …
A Phase Ib/II Clinical Trial of M701 in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusions Caused by NSCLC
This is a phase 1/phase 2, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary efficacy of M701 in patients with treatment of malignant pleural effusions caused by NSCLC.
