A Prospective Observational Study on Targeted Therapy for Unresectable or Metastatic BRAFV600E Mutant Melanoma Patients
1. Background The purpose of this study is to describe the profile of patients with BRAF-mutated melanoma treated with BRAF/MEK inhibitors combination and using the Tavie Skin application. TavieSkin app, a digital solution developped by Pierre Fabre, is dedicated to all BRAF-mutant unresectable or metastatic melanoma patients who are treated with "any" targeted therapies. 2. Study objectives The primary objective of the survey is to describe the demographics and clinical characteristics of patients with unresectable or metastatic BRAF-mutated melanoma treated with targeted therapy...

A Prospective, Open-label Study of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE in Patients With Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (NENs) and Healthy Volunteers in Japan
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/Computerized Tomography (CT) imaging compared with conventional imaging (CIM) as standard of truth in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) and healthy volunteers (HVs). The data from this study will provide the evidence for diagnosis of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT imaging in patient with NENs in Japan.

A Prospective Study of Plasma Genotyping as a Noninvasive Biomarker for Genotype-directed Cancer Care
Tumor genotyping has become an essential biomarker for the care of advanced lung cancer and melanoma, and is currently used to identify patients for treatment with targeted kinase inhibitors like erlotinib and vemurafenib. However, tumor genotyping can be slow and cumbersome, and is limited by availability of tumor biopsy tissue for testing. The aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate a blood-based genotyping tool that can quantify the presence of oncogenic mutations (EGFR, KRAS, BRAF) in patients with lung cancer and melanoma. This assay is being studied both as a diagnostic tool for classifying patient genotype, and a serial...

A Prospective Study of the Impact of Hippocampal Avoidance During Whole Brain Radiotherapy on Neurocognitive Function Decline
Whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) has long been a practical and effective therapeutic modality for various settings of management in radiation oncology. For example, the indications for WBRT should include brain metastasis or metastases, the setting of prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) used mainly for patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer, and even some patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The rationales for WBRT are essentially based on that it can target both microscopic and gross intracranial disease. In addition to providing rapid alleviation of neurologic symptoms and enhanced intracranial ...

A Prospective Study of Whole-Brain RT Combined With Thiotepa Sheath Injection Combined With Systemic Therapy for the Primary Disease in the Treatment of Meningeal Metastases in Solid Tumors
The goal of this prospective, single-arm exploratory clinical study is to explore the safty and efficacy of whole-brain radiotherapy combined with Thiotepa sheath injection combined With Systemic Therapy for the Primary Disease in the Treatment of Meningeal Metastases in Solid Tumors How works well was the combined therapy? How safe was combined therapy? Participants will receive whole brain radiotherapy combined with intrathecal injection of Thiotepa twice a week for a total of 4 weeks. Evaluate the efficacy and safety every 2 cycles. Researchers will evaluate whether this combination treatment is safe and whether it is more ...

A Prospective Study to Evaluate Clinical Outcomes in Anti-LGI1 Encephalitis
Anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) encephalitis has been increasingly identified as the second most common type of autoimmune encephalitis after anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis. It presents with acute or subacute onset of epileptic seizures, anterograde amnesia, behavior disturbances, sleep disorders and hyponatremia. In most patients with anti-LGI1 encephalitis, immunotherapy is successful in treating the encephalitis. However, relapses, chronic epilepsy, cognitive declines and psychiatric problems have been reported in some cases. So far, prospective studies to evaluate its clinical outcomes...

A Randomized Controlled Phase II Trial With Intradermal IMO-2125 in Pathological Tumor Stage (p) T3-4 cN0M0 Melanoma
Currently, there is no widely used adjuvant treatment available to improve survival after surgical excision of a primary melanoma. In a previous study, loco-regional and systemic immune stimulations, as well as favourable clinical outcomes in terms of sentinel lymph node (SLN) tumor status and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with clinical stage I-II melanoma who received a low dose of toll-like receptor 9 (TLR-9) CPG7909 (CpG-B ODN) intradermally at the excision site of the primary tumor prior to SLN biopsy (SNB) were described. In this phase II trial the investigators had investigated the clinical activity of a...

A Randomized Trial of Delayed Radiotherapy in Patients Low-grade Oligodendrogliomas Requiring a Treatment Other Than Surgery
Because of their prolonged survival, patients with 1p/19q-codeleted low-grade oligodendrogliomas treated with RT + PCV are at risk of neurocognitive deterioration. We make the hypothesis that withholding radiotherapy until tumor progression could reduce the risk of neurocognitive deterioration without impairing overall survival.

A Randomized Trial to Assess the Role of Imaging During Follow up After Radical Surgery of High Risk Melanoma
It is not known whether radiological assessments during follow up after surgery for high risk melanoma improve survival. Since radiological examinations are resource demanding, could inflict worry and cause irradiation exposure it is an important question to address. With the introduction of effective medical treatments for malignant melanoma patients, there is a tendency to introduce radiological assessments despite the lack of evidence.

A Registry of Subjects With Primary Indeterminate Lesions or Choroidal Melanoma
The purpose of this observational research study is to follow participants who have been treated with either bel-sar or received alternate treatment (sham, standard of care therapy, etc.) while participating in a previous Aura Biosciences clinical research study to assess the long-term safety and effectiveness in these subjects. This study will collect information from procedures conducted as part of routine follow-up eye care and cancer care. Additionally, the registry will collect all adverse events, information about pregnancy and symptomatic overdose.
