Clinical Trial to Observe the Effects of Tamoxifen on Testosterone Recovery in Medically Castrated Prostate Cancer Patients

Hypogonadism Prostate Cancer

Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a cornerstone therapy in the treatment of curable prostate cancer (PCa). However, ADT often leads to a protracted testosterone recovery period in most men or absence of complete recovery in 10-25% of cases. The hypogonadal state has significant psychosocial and physical side effects. Therefore, limiting ADT effect's duration beyond the prescribed castration period is very compelling to patients and providers alike. Tamoxifen, a well-established selective estrogen receptor modulator, offers a novel and cost-effective approach to accelerate testosterone recovery in men with secondary hypogonadism. This project addresses a critical gap in global cancer care by evaluating Tamoxifen as a viable solution for reducing the burden of delayed testosterone recovery and its associated side effects, particularly in resource-limited settings.

Safety and Efficacy of BMS-986504 in Unresectable Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor

Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors MPNST

People who have a cancer called MPNST, or Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor, may be eligible for this study. The purpose of this study is to see if a new medicine called BMS-986504 may work better than other available medicines for people with MPNST. Methylthioadenosine Phosphorylase (MTAP) loss is a gene mutation that some people have. MTAP loss seems to increase the chance that BMS-986504 can kill MPNST cancer cells. People who are missing MTAP from their tumor may be able to enroll in this study. Treating MPNST based on MTAP loss is considered experimental and is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for determining whether BMS-98650 will be active against cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of BMS-986504 in participants with MPNST.

Auricular Laser Acupuncture for Improving Sleep in Breast Cancer Patients

Breast Cancer Females Insomnia

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if auricular laser acupuncture can improve sleep quality and alleviate related symptoms in female breast cancer patients aged 18 to 75 with insomnia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does active auricular laser acupuncture improve sleep quality and reduce the severity of insomnia? 2. Does it help lower levels of cancer-related fatigue, anxiety, and depression? Researchers will compare an active auricular laser acupuncture group to a sham control group (receiving no therapeutic laser energy) to see if active laser acupuncture is effective for symptom relief. Participants will: 1. Receive 10 sessions of laser treatment (active or sham) twice a week for 5 weeks, while wearing protective goggles to ensure blinding. 2. Wear an actigraphy wristband and keep a sleep diary to monitor sleep patterns, and undergo heart rate variability (HRV) measurements at baseline and Week 5 (post-treatment). 3. Complete questionnaires assessing sleep, fatigue, mood, and quality of life at baseline, Week 5 (post-treatment), and Week 10 (follow-up).

Improving a Bile Duct Drainage Procedure in Patients With Inoperable Cancer Blocking the Bile Ducts: Comparing Two Types of Endoscopically Placed Internal Stents to Prevent Blockage of a Lumen Apposing Metal Stent

Malignant Biliary Obstruction Advanced Pancreatic Cancer and Cholangiocarcinoma Inoperable Malignant Biliary Obstruction Lumen Apposing Metal Stents

This study looks at the best way to treat bile duct blockage in people with advanced cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. A blocked bile duct can cause serious symptoms like yellowing of the skin (jaundice), infection, and pain. A common procedure called ERCP sometimes doesn't work in these patients. A newer method called EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) uses internal ultrasound to place a special metal tube (called a LAMS) to allow bile to drain. However, over time this stent can still become blocked. To reduce this risk, doctors can place a second stent inside the first. This study is comparing two types of these second stents: * A plastic stent (double pigtail stent or DPS) * A metal stent (fully covered self-expanding metal stent or FCSEMS) The study will include patients at Waikato Hospital. After the first stent is placed, they will be randomly assigned to receive either a DPS or FCSEMS. Patients will be followed for 6 months to see how well the stents work. The aim is to find out which approach keeps the bile duct open longer and reduces the need for further procedures or hospitalisation, helping improve care and comfort for people with advanced cancer

Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation Using External Beam Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT): a Randomised Non-inferiority Trial of 30 Gy Versus 26 Gy in Five Fractions Investigating Patient-reported Outcomes

Breast Cancer

For women undergoing radiotherapy following surgery for early-stage breast cancer, breast-related quality of life (BrQoL) is an important consideration. Treating only the part of the breast by radiation where the cancer has been surgically removed (partial breast irradiation or "PBI") rather than the whole breast (whole breast irradiation) can reduce the toxic effects of radiotherapy. This trial aims to evaluate whether there is a difference in patient-reported BrQoL between two total doses of radiation given in five treatments using PBI. If BrQOL for the higher dose of PBI is no worse than the lower dose, using the higher dose would be advised as best practice, given that it is more likely to be more effective in reducing the chance of cancer coming back in the breast than the lower dose.

Surgery and Reducing Ionizing Radiation of the Unknown Primary

Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma HPV Positive Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

About 3% of people with head and neck cancer have cancer in their lymph nodes, but doctors are unable to find the primary tumour. This situation has become more common due to human papillomavirus (HPV), a virus linked to certain cancers. Generally, patients with HPV-related cancers have a good outlook, with around 90% surviving for at least five years. Recent advancements in medical technology, such as advanced imaging and specialized surgeries, have significantly improved doctors' ability to find these hidden tumours. These techniques can locate the primary tumour in 70-80% of cases. If the tumour remains undetected, it could be very small or potentially eliminated by the body's immune system. The best way to treat this type of cancer is still debated. Current treatment options include surgery to remove lymph nodes or radiation therapy. There is no clear agreement on which areas should receive radiation. Often, surgery is performed on one side of the throat to try and locate the tumour's origin. Researchers are exploring ways to minimize the harmful side effects of treatment. Some studies suggest that surgery alone might be sufficient for patients with small tumours in their neck, but more research is needed. Another important question is whether radiation needs to cover the entire throat area. Recent findings suggest that omitting radiation from some areas might reduce side effects such as difficulty swallowing and dry mouth. The SUPERIOR trial aims to investigate whether reducing the amount of radiation can still be effective and improve patients' quality of life. The study also examines whether surgery alone is adequate for certain patients with HPV-related cancers.

Tirzepatide in Obesity-Driven Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial Cancer Obesity

LCCC2415 examines the antiproliferative effect of tirzepatide on the endometrium of endometrial cancer (EC). This is a pre-operative window clinical study. Endometrial biopsy samples from patients before tirzepatide treatment will be compared to their post-intervention hysterectomy specimens. If archival tissue is unavailable, a fresh biopsy will be taken before tirzepatide treatment. Post-intervention tissue will be collected from the hysterectomy specimen. The hypothesis is that tirzepatide's anti-tumorigenic effects are due to both an improvement in the host's metabolic milieu (indirect effect) and a direct effect on the EC tumor microenvironment via the inter-related pathways of insulin, lipid, and mTOR signaling. Therefore, tirzepatide may be an innovative approach to effectively induce weight loss and inhibit tumor growth in EC, the most obesity-driven of all cancers.

Low-Count Quantitative SPECT for Men Treated With Radium-223

Prostate Cancer Cancer of the Prostate

Internal radiotherapies (radiolabeled molecules that are systemically administered and localize to sites of disease) provide cancer-ablating doses to diseased cells while sparing adjacent normal tissues. \[223Ra\]RaCl2 (Xofigo) is the first FDA-approved alpha-particle emitting radiopharmaceutical therapy (αRPT), providing a survival benefit for men with bone metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Systemically administered radiotherapies distribute throughout the patient, accumulating to unknown levels at sites of disease and in radiosensitive vital organs. The whole-body distribution means that absorbed doses in the patient extend far beyond a pre-defined treatment field. There is a lack of information about αRPT distribution and localization, and this confounds treatment monitoring, complicates dose and schedule personalization, and impedes drug development. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging offers a mechanism to quantify uptake; however, αRPT administered activities are significantly lower than those used with diagnostic procedures, which presents a challenge for quantitation with conventional methods. Preliminary research shows that low-count quantitative SPECT (LC-QSPECT) imaging demonstrates reliable quantitation of regional uptake for αRPTs. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility, tolerability and performance of LC-QSPECT imaging.

A Phase I Multicentre Randomized Double-Blind Parallel-Controlled Study of HLX05-N vs. ERBITUX® in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

mCRC

This is a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled Phase 1 clinical study designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity, efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of HLX05-N compared with US-sourced ERBITUX® and EU-sourced ERBITUX® in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with wild-type KRAS/NRAS and no BRAF V600E mutation. Approximately 387 participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive HLX05-N, US-ERBITUX®, or EU-ERBITUX®. Randomization will be stratified by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (0 vs. 1) and sex (male vs. female). During the treatment period, participants will receive study treatment in combination with mFOLFOX6 chemotherapy. For the first 3 treatment cycles, participants will receive HLX05-N or US-/EU-ERBITUX® plus chemotherapy according to randomized assignment. After completion of the initial 3 cycles, participants originally assigned to the US-ERBITUX® or EU-ERBITUX® arms will switch, in a blinded manner, to HLX05-N 250 mg/m² administered in combination with chemotherapy on Day 1 of each cycle. Study treatment will continue until investigator-assessed disease progression, death, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, study termination, or 1 year after randomization, whichever occurs first. For participants with disease response or stable disease after 12 cycles of treatment, oxaliplatin may be discontinued, and maintenance therapy with cetuximab in combination with leucovorin and 5-fluorouracil may continue. Participants who continue to benefit from treatment after 1 year following randomization may receive subsequent therapy according to local clinical practice. PK and anti-drug antibody (ADA) samples will be collected from all participants to assess PK characteristics and immunogenicity. An end-of-treatment visit will be performed within 7 days after treatment discontinuation. Safety follow-up will be conducted 30 days after the last dose, with an additional telephone safety follow-up at 12 weeks after the last dose. Survival follow-up will continue for up to 1 year after randomization.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine Among Patients With Hematologic Malignancies in France

Hematological Malignancies

Integrative medicine promotes the incorporation of elements from complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) into patient care. These approaches are defined as treatments that are not routinely part of conventional medical care (1). CAM practices include osteopathy, acupuncture, aromatherapy, naturopathy, and various energy-based techniques, although their efficacy is not always well-established. Nevertheless, a meta-analysis on the use of CAM in the context of cancer reported a 40% prevalence of use in 2012 (2). Subsequently, a study conducted in France in 2015 revealed an 83% prevalence of CAM use across all types of cancer, underscoring the interest in these therapies (3). CAM is often employed to alleviate side effects of conventional treatments, such as fatigue, nausea, and vomiting. The 2015 French study primarily focused on solid tumors, with hematological malignancies representing only 2% of the cases, thereby limiting the assessment of CAM use in this context (3). Currently, there is no specific data evaluating the use of CAM among patients with hematological malignancies in France. Hematological malignancies, unlike solid tumors, are characterized by their diffuse nature, making their localization and treatment more challenging for patients to comprehend (4). Additionally, a qualitative study the investigators conducted on the spiritual needs of patients recently diagnosed with hematological malignancies identified CAM as an area of interest. Among the ten patients in the study, seven were using CAM and reported an improvement in their spiritual well-being, which is defined as the ability to integrate the meaning and purpose of life into their health experiences, through relationships with themselves, others, art, nature, or a higher entity. This aspect of CAM utilization was not explored in our previous study on the spiritual needs of patients, particularly in understanding their appeal and the motivations of patients to adopt them. Therefore, it appears crucial to explore this practice, which is known to be common among healthcare providers. Understanding these complementary care pathways would enable their safety (e.g., avoiding or informing about potential drug interactions) and foster the patient-provider relationship around a topic that is sometimes considered taboo (5). Ultimately, this would contribute to better supporting patients within a holistic care perspective.

What Impact Does an Initial Psycho-oncological Contact Have on People With Cancer?

Cancer Psycho-Oncology

When diagnosed with cancer, patients or their relatives may, if they wish, on the recommendation of the treatment team and/or in cases of high stress, seek psycho-oncological support. This study investigates whether an initial consultation with a psycho-oncological specialist reduces anxiety and depression, improves quality of life, and whether patients subsequently make greater use of support services. Participants will be randomised, meaning they will be assigned to groups at random to ensure that the results are comparable. In the intervention group, participants will receive a detailed initial consultation with a psycho-oncology specialist and standard treatment. In the control group, participants receive standard treatment. To gather results, questionnaires are administered at regular intervals (at the start, after 3 and 6 months). The study lasts a total of 6 months. The study was developed by patients. It is being conducted simultaneously at several hospitals.
