Advanced Melanoma

The purpose of this study is to test whether the combination of fianlimab, cemiplimab, and ipilimumab is a safe and effective treatment that causes few or mild side effects for locally advanced or metastatic, unresectable, refractory melanoma.

To find the highest tolerable dose of IACS-6274 that can be given alone, in combination with bevacizumab and paclitaxel, or in combination with capivasertib to patients who have solid tumors. The safety and tolerability of the study drug(s) will also be studied.

The study is for patients with advanced melanoma who are eligible for standard therapy with Pembrolizumab.

Advanced melanoma is a highly aggressive malignancy that frequently exhibits resistance to conventional radiotherapy and single-agent immunotherapy. This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an innovative melanoma-specific aggregable gold nanosystem (Au-TMP) in patients with advanced melanoma. This single-arm, open-label, Phase 1a clinical trial utilizes a dose-escalation design, where participants receive a single intratumoral injection of Au-TMP followed by sequential radiotherapy and Toripalimab (anti-PD-1) treatment. This trial aims at assessing the safety of intratumoral injection of Au-TMP and radiotherapy in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy.

This clinical trial tests the effect of multiple therapies (propranolol, desloratadine, and magnesium and vitamin D supplements) added to primary standard of care immunotherapy (adjunct), as well as adjusting the timing of standard immunotherapy to a morning infusion, in treating patients with melanoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) or hepatocellular cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Propranolol is a medication used for high blood pressure. Desloratadine is a type of drug that blocks the action of histamines, which can cause fever, itching, sneezing, a runny nose, and watery eyes. Immunotherapy has been approved for multiple kinds of advanced cancers, including melanoma, kidney cancer, non-small cell lung cancer and hepatocellular (liver) cancer. Research suggests that giving propranolol and desloratadine, along with ensuring adequate levels of magnesium and vitamin D, as well as administering immunotherapy infusions in the morning may shrink or stop the spread of advanced cancers better than immunotherapy alone.

To find out if the amount of CD8 immune cells at the place where TIL cells are collected is linked to how well a patient responds to treatment.

This Phase 3 clinical trial is evaluating whether adding iSCIB1+, an investigational DNA-based cancer vaccine, to standard immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab can improve outcomes for people with advanced unresectable melanoma. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either iSCIB1+ or a placebo, in addition to standard treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab. Neither participants nor study doctors will know which treatment has been assigned. The study will compare how long participants live without their cancer worsening, overall survival, tumor response, safety, and quality of life. iSCIB1+ is designed to stimulate the immune system to recognize and attack melanoma cells by targeting proteins commonly found on melanoma tumors. Earlier studies have shown encouraging signs of immune activation and anti-tumor activity when iSCIB1+ was combined with checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy. This study aims to determine whether adding iSCIB1+ to standard immunotherapy provides additional benefit compared with standard immunotherapy alone

A total of 92 subjects with advanced melanoma who met the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the experimental group and the control group in this phase II trial. The study will be followed up until 24 months after treatment.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of ctDNA measurements to guide first-lien therapy choice for patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma. Primary endpoints include progression-free survival. Secondary study endpoints include objective response rate and incidence and severity of immune-related adverse events.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether high-intensity exercise and high-fiber diet are feasible and improve various health outcomes among participants with advanced melanoma receiving immunotherapy. The names of the groups in this research study are: * High-Intensity Exercise (EX) * High-fiber Diet (DT) * Combined High-Intensity Exercise and High-Fiber Diet (COMB) * Attention Control (AC)

This clinical study evaluated the tolerability, safety and preliminary efficacy of T3011 in subjects with advanced melanoma.

Melanoma remains a common cancer with rising incidence, and despite significant improvements with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), clinical outcomes remain heterogeneous. Retrospective analyses across multiple tumor types, including melanoma, suggest that earlier daytime administration of ICIs may enhance therapeutic effectiveness, potentially due to circadian modulation of immune function. A pronounced survival benefit has been observed particularly among female patients receiving earlier infusions. This trial prospectively evaluates whether aligning ICI administration with circadian immune activity can improve outcomes in melanoma and support the development of sex-specific optimization of immunotherapy.

This study is testing whether adding the drug sitagliptin to the standard immunotherapy pembrolizumab is safe and may help people with advanced melanoma or advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) whose cancer has stopped responding to prior PD-1 or PD-L1 immunotherapy. The study has two parts. In the first part, small groups of participants will receive different doses of sitagliptin along with a fixed dose of pembrolizumab. This helps researchers find the highest dose of sitagliptin that can be given safely. In the second part, more participants will receive the safest dose to see how well the drug combination works against their cancer.

This is a randomized, controlled, multicenter, open-label Phase 3 clinical study comparing VO in combination with nivolumab versus Physician's Choice treatment for patients with unresectable Stage IIIb-IV cutaneous melanoma whose disease progressed on an anti PD-1 and an anti-CTLA-4 containing regimen (administered either as a combination regimen or in sequence) or who are not candidates for treatment with an anti-CTLA-4 therapy.

This study is a first-in-human, open-label, nonrandomized, single center Phase 1 dose-escalation study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity, and preliminary antitumor activity of AB821 monotherapy given every 2 weeks (Q2W) or every 3 weeks (Q3W) in participants with recurrent locally advanced or metastatic melanoma and other immune-responsive solid tumors. Immune-responsive solid tumors are defined as those for which immune checkpoint inhibitors form part of the standard-of-care therapy.

This phase IV trial is evaluating whether morning versus afternoon administration of standard of care immunotherapy impacts its effectiveness in treating patients with solid tumors that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies may help the body's immune system attack the cancer and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Circadian rhythm refers to the internal biological clock in which various processes in the body, including immune cell activity, are controlled by the time of day. Exactly how this works is not fully understood, and the researchers want to see if circadian rhythm control of the immune system can influence response to immunotherapy based on whether it is given in the morning (before 11:00 am) or afternoon (12:00pm). The time of day that immunotherapy is given (morning versus afternoon) may impact the effectiveness in treating patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

This study is an open-label, multicenter phase Ib/II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LBL-024 monotherapy, LBL-024 in combination with LBL-007 or toripalimab in patients with advanced melanoma,To evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of LBL-024 monotherapy and combination therapy in patients with advanced melanoma.

A single center, dose escalaion, Phase I clinical trial to demonstrate safety and efficacy of LauT-1, autologous "New York Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma-1 T-Cell Receptor (NY-ESO-1 TCR)-directed T cells in combination with non-myeloablative (NMA) lymphodepleting chemotherapy and low dose irradiation (LDI) in patients with NY-ESO-1 positive sarcoma and melanoma.

This clinical trial studies the effect of cancer directed therapy given at-home versus in the clinic for patients with cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Currently most drug-related cancer care is conducted in infusion centers or specialty hospitals, where patients spend many hours a day isolated from family, friends, and familiar surroundings. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. The logistics and costs of navigating cancer treatments have become a principal contributor to patients' reduced quality of life. It is therefore important to reduce the burden of cancer in the lives of patients and their caregivers, and a vital aspect of this involves moving beyond traditional hospital and clinic-based care and evaluate innovative care delivery models with virtual capabilities. Providing cancer treatment at-home, versus in the clinic, may help reduce psychological and financial distress and increase treatment compliance, especially for marginalized patients and communities.

The purpose of this study is to determine if neoadjuvant (treatment before surgery) immunotherapy treatment based on tumor biomarkers results in better participant outcomes. Immunotherapy is the treatment of disease by using a person's own immune system. This study is divided into 2 sub-studies/parts designated Part 1 and Part 2 that will enroll in sequence starting with Part 1 followed by Part 2.

This is a phase 3, randomized, controlled study of brenetafusp (IMC-F106C) plus nivolumab compared to standard nivolumab regimens in HLA-A\*02:01-positive participants with previously untreated advanced melanoma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tebentafusp-based regimens, including tebentafusp monotherapy and in combination with anti-PD1 vs investigator choice (including clinical trials of investigational agents, salvage therapy per local standard of care \[SoC\], best supportive care \[BSC\] on protocol survivor follow up) in patients with advanced non-ocular melanoma.

This study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy in patients with advanced melanoma. Autologous TILs are expanded from tumor resections or biopsies and infused i.v. into the patient after NMA lymphodepletion treatment with hydroxychloroquine(600mg,single-dose) and cyclophosphamide.

This study is for adult patients with advanced melanoma who are receiving immunotherapy and who are planning on having surgery for their cancer. All participants in this study will receive an experimental treatment made up of focused ultrasound ablation (FUSA), a non-invasive experimental treatment that uses ultrasound waves to heat and destroy tumor tissue, and an injection in the tumor with an experimental drug that activates the immune system called polyICLC (polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid that is stabilized with carboxymethylcellulose and polylysine). Neither the drug nor the device that are used in this study have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Various forms of stress can promote cancer development and growth and negatively impact the immune system's response to tumors. Beta-adrenergic and opioid receptors co-exist in many cells including immune cells and are integral components of the body's response to stress. Pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that dual blockade of these receptors can decrease tumor growth and modulate the anti-tumor immune response. This clinical trial investigates the safety and potential therapeutic benefits of combining a beta-adrenergic blocker (propranolol) and an opioid receptor antagonist (naltrexone) with immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with advanced melanoma.
