MA.39 - Tailor RT: A Randomized Trial of Regional Radiotherapy in Biomarker Low Risk Node Positive Breast Cancer
The randomization of the first MA.39 patient has been completed by the Juravinski Cancer Centre at Hamilton Health Sciences on October 16, 2018 - Congratulations! This site is lead by the Study Chair Tim Whelan and has four additional patients registered.
The CCTG CEC.5 trial: A Phase II Study of Corticosteroid + Bevacizumab vs Corticosteroid + Placebo (BeST) for Radionecrosis after Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases has officially closed to accrual as of October 12, 2018.
Primary Objective: To investigate whether the addition of bevacizumab to standard corticosteroid therapy results in greater improvement in symptoms (clinical and patient-reported symptom improvement associated with radionecrosis and less radionecrosis treatment-induced symptoms) compared with standard corticosteroid therapy.
The CCTG SRC.6 (COG ARST1321) study is now closed to accrual.
Thanks to the hard work of many across the CCTG group and collaborative working processes with our pediatric colleagues the SRC.6 trial met its primary endpoint early. Addition of pazopanib to preoperative chemoradiation increased rates of complete pathological response for individuals with sarcoma. Additional follow up is planned to determine if this translates into improved event free and overall survival. A huge thank you to everybody who contributed to this success.
A new trial, Nivolumab, Ipilimumab in Patients With Hyper Mutated Cancers Detected in Blood (NIMBLe) will soon open at centers in the US and Canada. Trial researchers will initially explore the use of non-invasive approaches to confirm POLE and POLD1 mutations in solid tumors and to investigate whether those tumors are responsive to immunotherapy.
Why are cancer clinical trials important? Find out in this video interview with Dr. Rebecca Auer.
It is anticipated that RIPPLE (Roster Interface Program and Participants List Environment) version 3.0 will be rolled out on October 19, 2018.
Canadian Cancer Trials group is providing an update about the previously planned BI.3 trial "A Phase II/III Trial Comparing Cisplatin Plus Acelarin to Cisplatin Plus Gemcitabine in First-Line Treatment of Locally Advanced or Metastatic Biliary Tract Cancer". The BI.3 trial will not be proceeding to move forward through the planned academic consortium as lead by CCTG, the partnering company has made a strategic decision to undertake the study as an industry-sponsored trial.
