Ipilumumab and Nivolumab With or Without Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety of combining ipilimumab and nivolumab with hypofractionated radiotherapy to a single tumor in patients with metastatic melanoma. Another purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ipilimumab, nivolumab and hypofractionated radiotherapy on the cancer as compared to ipilimumab and nivolumab.

Irinotecan Liposomes Combined With Bevacizumab in the Treatment of Recurrent Glioma
With the optimization of the dosage form of irinotecan, the replacement of ordinary irinotecan with irinotecan liposomes should improve the safety and the expected efficacy. Therefore, an exploratory study on the treatment progress of irinotecan liposomes combined with bevacizumab for recurrent brain glioma should be conducted. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of irinotecan liposomes combined with bevacizumab in the treatment of progressive/recurrent brain glioma, so as to provide more treatment options for patients with brain glioma.

Irradiation of Melanoma in a Pulse
This is a single center phase I, first-in-human, dose escalation study of FLASH therapy in patients with metastases of melanoma. The trial is based on escalating single doses of FLASH therapy administered to skin melanoma metastases using the Mobetron® with high dose rate (HDR) functionality. The aim of the study is to evaluate a dose escalation of high dose rate radiotherapy (FLASH therapy) as single dose treatment for skin melanoma metastases that progress locally despite systemic treatments. Melanoma is a typically radio-resistant tumor type, which can justify such a dose escalation with a new type of radiotherapy that appears much better tolerated than conventional...

Ivocizumab in the Treatment of Multiple Advanced Tumors
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Ivocizumab works to treat advanced rare tumors including cohort 1: PAGET's disease of scrotum with infiltrating sweat gland carcinoma. cohort 2: Metastatic paraganglioma and pheochromocytoma. cohort 3: Metastatic renal angiomyolipoma and malignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor. cohort 4: Rhabdomyosarcoma. cohort 5: Other sarcoma. cohort 6: Urachal carcinoma. cohort 7: Neuroendocrine cancer. cohort 8: Basal cell carcinoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma. cohort 9: Penile cancer. cohort 10: Adrenal cortical cancer. cohort 11: Metastatic germ cell tumors, failure of standard cisplatin based therapy (mostly testicular cancer). cohort...

Keto-Brain:Investigating the Use of Ketogenic Diets in Brain Metastases
This pilot study will be a single center, randomized controlled study of 24 participants with diagnosed BM (various primary disease sites) comparing the effect of a ketogenic (n=12) and AICR (n=12) diet. Potential participants will be identified via medical record reviews and chart reviews. Eligibility of patients will be assessed via medical record review. Randomization will be balanced by blocks of random sizes but no stratification due to the small sample size. Both groups will undergo a 16-week diet intervention where research dietitians will provide educations, recipes and grocery lists on the participants assigned diet. Each group will receive 4-7 days worth of food prior...

Ketogenic Dietary Intervention to Improve Response to Immunotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Melanoma and Metastatic Kidney Cancer
This phase I trial studies how well a ketogenic dietary intervention works to improve response to immunotherapy in patients with melanoma and kidney cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). A ketogenic diet (KD) means eating fewer carbohydrates and more fats. The purpose is to use ketones (normal breakdown from fat) instead of glucose (sugar) as an energy source. Researchers want to see whether a ketogenic diet can improve tumor response in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). ICI are newer treatment options that help the immune system better fight some cancers. Following a KD may improve tumor...

KETOgenic Diet Therapy in Patients With ACROmegaly
Acromegaly is caused by a tumour located at the base of the brain in the pituitary gland that produces too much growth hormone (GH). Symptoms caused by the excess of GH, and consequently increased insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), are disproportionate growth of body parts, fluid retention, snoring and excessive perspiration. The various metabolic changes that occur due to acromegaly increase the risk for insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, sleep apnoea and thus an increased risk of cardiovascular disease if left untreated. The result is signs and symptoms, increased mortality, morbidity, and greatly reduced quality of life (QoL). Normalisation of GH...
