Clinical Trials

This is a Prospective Observational Cohort Study, designed to better characterize patients with cancer cachexia (CC) by prospectively evaluating weight, muscle mass, fat mass, eating and appetite, physical function, symptoms, and associated medical and biopsychosocial factors. CC was defined by an international consensus panel as a “multifactorial syndrome characterized by an ongoing loss of skeletal muscle mass (with or without loss of fat mass) that cannot be fully reversed by conventional nutritional support and leads to progressive functional impairment1.” CC has been associated with reduced physical performance, impaired quality of life and poorer survival. Unfortunately, there currently are no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatment for CC. Therefore, therapeutic development for CC is an urgent unmet need. The diagnostic criteria for CC as defined by the international consensus are as follows: a) greater than 5% weight loss in the previous 6 months or b) greater than 2% weight loss with either low Body Mass Index (BMI) or skeletal muscle depletion. A key criticism of the diagnostic criteria is that it is too broad and simplistic for a complex, multifactorial disease process and that it relies too heavily on weight, which is subject to change from a myriad of conditions. The aim of this study will be to develop new diagnostic criteria for CC subtypes so that pathophysiologic drivers of CC can be isolated in individuals and, ultimately, more tailored therapies can be developed.

multi-site trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combination of 5-FU, oxaliplatin and nal-IRI (plus trastuzumab for HER2-positive tumors) as first-line therapy for patients with advanced EGA. Subjects will be enrolled into one of the two cohorts based on the HER2 status of the tumor. Subjects in Cohort 1 (HER2-negative) will be treated with 5-FU, oxaliplatin and nal-IRI. Subjects in Cohort 2 (HER2-positive) will be treated with trastuzumab in addition to 5-FU, oxaliplatin and nal-IRI.

This ComboMATCH patient screening trial is the gateway to a coordinated set of clinical trials to study cancer treatment directed by genetic testing. Patients with solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (advanced) and have progressed on at least one line of standard systemic therapy or have no standard treatment that has been shown to prolong overall survival may be candidates for these trials. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with some genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit from treatment that targets that particular genetic mutation. ComboMATCH is designed to match patients to a treatment that may work to control their tumor and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with locally advanced or advanced solid tumors.

This is a prospective cohort study that examines the impact of myopenia on chemotherapy toxicity in overall survival (OS) in older adults with newly diagnosed metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) receiving 5-Fluouracil (5FU)systemic chemotherapy. The study also explores the mediating influence of genetic variation in the association between myopenia and chemotherapy toxicity.

To determine whether an Internet-based pain coping skills program plus enhanced usual care, compared to enhanced usual care alone, yields significant improvements in the co-primary outcomes of pain severity (as measured by the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)) and pain interference (also measured by the BPI) from baseline to the post-intervention assessment for cancer survivors with persistent pain.
