MelPRO-0322 (CRISTINA Trial) [miCrobiome pRedIctS aPD1 effecTivnes In melaNoma pAtietns]
The goal of this observational study is to learn about if new biomarkers such as gut microbiota and molecular genetics melanoma features could predict clinical radiological and pathological response to neoadjuvant monotherapy with anti-PD1 agents in patients with resectable stage IIIB-D melanoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
Liquid Biomarker Study in Melanoma and Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers
The goal of this observational study is to study blood samples and compare them to other biospecimens and clinical outcomes in participants who have melanoma or non-melanoma skin cancers. The main question it aims to answer is: Are blood based signatures able to predict progression-free survival (PFS)? Participants undergoing regular …
Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Ocular Surface and Adnexal Cancers
The study involves enrollment of patients with sebaceous carcinoma, Merkel's carcinoma, Porocarcinoma, Melanoma, and squamous cell Ca of the ocular surface and adnexa both primary and relapsed after surgical and/or radiation-chemotherapy treatment at the Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli, IRCCS. The study will last 9 years: 1 year will be …
Uveal Melanoma - Comparative Study
The progress of uveal melanoma is typically monitored with sonography by experienced onco-ophthalmologists. However, there is evidence that twodimensional measurements in color fundus photography match precisely with sonography measurements. This study aims to compare sonography and color fundus photography measurements in order to evaluate the feasibility of monitoring of uveal …
Evaluation of Hypoxia in Primary Melanoma
When controlling for tumor present in the Sentinel lymph node (SLN), intranodal hypoxia, as measured by Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX IHC), is associated with worse PFS. This suggests that melanoma tumors may be utilizing deregulated metabolism as a means of propagating themselves to the next station of metastasis. This study …
Eye Plaque Brachytherapy for Ocular Melanoma
This prospective registry study will evaluate doses utilized in eye plaque brachytherapy for the treatment of ocular melanoma and their associated outcomes. The goal of this study is to evaluate if lower doses of radiation can maintain high local control rates while minimizing the toxicities related to radiation therapy.
Characterization of the Melanoma-Specific Immune Response
The aim of this study is to study T-cells. Blood will be collected and the samples will be used to generate T cell clones. Two separate blood draws will be required at the maximum.
Serial Tumour Biopsies and Blood Biomarkers in Melanoma
Recent advances in understanding how cancer develops and spreads have led to effective new treatments and improved outcomes for patients with melanoma. However, we know that these new treatments do not work for all patients: some do not respond to them and some initially respond but then develop resistance. The …
Identification of Metabolic Phenotypes Associated With Melanoma Metastasis
The goal of this study is to observe metabolic features associated with human melanoma tumors.
In Vivo Real-time Detection of Circulating Melanoma Cells
The objective of this clinical trial is to determine whether a Photoacoustic flow cytometry (PAFC)-based prototype device can detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood of melanoma patients in vivo, in real time, and do so at detection limits at least one order of magnitude below the detection limits …
