Clinical trial: PeerScope B System™ Clinical Protocol

Summary: The PeerScope B System™ by PeerMedical Ltd. is intended to provide visualization (via a video monitor) and therapeutic access to the lower intestinal tract. The lower intestinal tract includes, but is not restricted to the organs, tissues and subsystems: large bowel and cecum. The device is introduced rectally, as with any standard colonoscope when indications consistent with the need for the procedure are observed in the adult patient population.
  The purpose of this prospective clinical study is to establish the usability of the PeerScope B System™ when used during standard colonoscopy procedure.
  The study population is comprised of patients indicated for colonoscopy.
  The primary endpoint is reaching the cecum of the colon with PeerScope B System™.Secondary endpoints:
  1. The first secondary endpoint is the incidence of complications using the PeerMedical colonoscope.
  2. The second secondary endpoint is successful therapeutic interventions as biopsies, polypectomies, APC etc.
  3. The third secondary endpoint is the procedure time.
  4. The fourth secondary endpoint is the subjective evaluation of the additional view angle by the physician.
  5. The fifth secondary endpoint is patient satisfactory.

Detailed description: Founded in 2009, PeerMedical develops colonoscopes capable of wide view angle at the press of the button. The PeerScope B System™ is an endoscopic platform that enables the physician to get a wide angle view while maintaining all of the features commonly used during Gastrointestinal (GI) procedures with very limited learning curve and in service process. The current standard devices have viewing limitations. By adding this viewing functionality, PeerMedical will potentially empower physicians to improve polyps detection and cancers within the colon.

Clinical trial: cKIT, BRAF/NRAS Mutations in Advanced Melanoma : Clinical Outcome in Response to Tyrosine-kinase Inhibitors - KitMel Project

Summary: Background: Metastatic melanoma has a devastating prognosis and is one of the top causes of cancer death in young patients. Until now, available therapies were few and unreliable, but recent understanding of melanomas' molecular pathways has improve their classification and new clinical strategies have been proposed.
  Initial studies showed that B-Raf/N-Ras mutations (respectively V600E and Q61) are the most frequent alteration being present in 70 to 80% of melanomas, characterizing non Chronic Sun-induced Damage skins (CSD). These include Superficial Spreading Melanomas (SSM) and Nodular Melanomas (NM). Other studies showed that c-Kit mutations are presently the predominant activating mutation (20 - 40 %) in Acro-Lentiginous Melanomas (ALM), Mucous Melanomas (MM) and in melanomas arising on CSD skin. c-Kit mutation pattern is more complex with four exons being affected leading to different mutations, which incidence and biological impact are less documented.
  BRAF/NRAS genetics alterations drive constantly cell growth, being thus attractive targets. Spectacular results have indeed been obtained with the BRAF inhibitor that targets the V600E BRAF-mutated form. Data from GIST disease revealed that the different c-Kit mutations modulate differently c-Kit function and the response to targeted therapies.
  Because c-Kit targeted therapy is a critical clinical issue, the investigators aimed to identify the most frequent mutations present in our population to propose appropriate screening test and adapt the therapy.
  Methods: 250 melanoma samples corresponding to an homogeneous white-Caucasian population (Brittany, France) will be screened. c-Kit exons 11, 13, 17 and 18 will be sequenced (direct sequencing and pyrosequencing when possible). c-Kit copy number will be quantified by q-PCR and level of c-Kit determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC, CD117). Samples will also be analyzed for B-Raf mutations in codon 464, 466, 469 and 600, and for N-Ras mutations in codon 12, 13 and 61 (Pyrosequencing).
  Expected Results:
  Taken together, the investigators anticipate that the present genetic analysis of the tumours from patients with advanced melanoma will first document the type and frequency of cKit mutations, will confirm or not that BRAF, NRAS and cKit mutations are mutually exclusive and document their repartition in the melanomas sub-types. Finally this study will clue researchers in to how well patients will respond to a therapy that targets the growth-promoting proteins BRAF/NRAS and cKIT.

Clinical trial: A Study of MEK162 and AMG 479 in Patients With Selected Solid Tumors

Summary: This is a multi-center, open-label, phase Ib/II study. First, the aim of the phase Ib part is to estimate the MTD(s) and/or to identify the recommended phase II dose(s) (RP2D) for the combination of MEK162 and AMG 479 (ganitumab), followed by the phase II part to assess the clinical efficacy and to further assess the safety of the combination in selected patient populations. The dose escalation part of the study will be guided by a Bayesian Logistic Regression Model (BLRM). At least 18 patients are expected to be enrolled in the dose escalation part.
  Following MTD/ RP2D declaration, patients will be enrolled in three phase II arms to assess efficacy of the combination as well as to better understand the safety, tolerability, PK, antibody concentrations and PD of the combination at MTD/RP2D. Phase II arm 1 will consist of approximately 25 patients with KRAS-mutant colorectal adenocarcinoma. Phase II arm 2 will consist of approximately 20 patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Phase II arm 3 will consist of approximately 28 patients with mutant BRAFV600 melanoma.
  Patients will be treated until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity develops, or withdrawal of informed consent, whichever occurs first. All patients will be followed up - at minimum patients must complete the safety follow-up assessments 30 days after the last dose of the study treatment.


Eligibility: Inclusion Criteria:

Clinical trial: Mutation Analysis and Copy Number Changes of KRAS and BRAF Gene in Taiwanese Cases of Biliary Tact Adenocarcinoma

Summary: Cholangiocarcinoma is a fatal malignant neoplasm originating from biliary tracts and constitutes about 5-10% of primary liver cancers, characterized by a poor prognosis. High prevalence in southeast and eastern Asia has been observed. At present, the cellular and molecular mechanisms leading to oncogenesis of cholangiocarcinoma remain unclear.
  The RAS gene product has a key role in controlling cell growth and differentiation through its intrinsic GTPase activity. Point mutations that activate the RAS protein and its downstream cascade have been observed in human tumors. Both KRAS and BRAF are members of the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK-MAP kinase pathway which mediates cellular response to growth signals. Somatic KRAS mutations are found at high rates in leukemia, colon cancer, pancreatic cancer and lung cancer. Studies from European and Japanese groups have recently described that activating KRAS/ BRAF mutations may play a role in the carcinogenesis of cholangiocarcinoma of the biliary tracts, but our preliminary data demonstrated low frequency of KRAS and BRAF mutation in the same tumor as well as the results from Thailand. In this study, the investigators hypothesize copy number changes rather than genetic mutation of either KRAS or BRAF genes may be the key findings of Taiwanese cases of the adenocarcinoma from the biliary tracts.


Eligibility: Inclusion Criteria:
  -  The patients diagnosed as biliary tact adenocarcinoma.

Clinical trial: Identification the Expression of Sox2 in Colorectal Cancer Tissues

Summary: Sox2 has been studied in several types of human solid tumors. The investigators found that Sox2 had higher expression level in colorectal cancer and metastatic tissues than normal tissues. So the investigators assumed that whether Sox2 plays an important role in the progression and migration of colon cancer.

Detailed description: In our study, we examined Sox2 expression in archived human colon cancer tissues and found that its Sox2 expression correlates with reduced patient survival, increased tumor grade and metastasis probability.

Eligibility: Inclusion Criteria:
  -  Clinical diagnosis of colorectal cancer
