For nearly half of people diagnosed with lung cancer, immunotherapy can slow the disease but not stop it. Funded through a $4 million joint investment from the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) and the Weston Family Foundation, a new clinical trial aims to change that.

A new survey study SC32S, collecting sociodemographic data from clinical trial participants, has now opened across Canada. This study will help researchers understand the feasibility of using a survey to gather information about trial participants’ backgrounds and everyday lives.

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.
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.
It is anticipated that RIPPLE (Roster Interface Program and Participants List Environment) version 3.0 will be rolled out on October 19, 2018.
On Wednesday September 19th 2018, CCTG's Director, Dr. Janet Dancey aired on the Blind Date with Knowledge radio show. During her interview Dr. Dancey talks about Evolving Clinical Trials through Collaboration. She discussed how the collaborative study of medical interventions in the treatment of cancer has expanded to also investigate how lifestyle, radiation, surgical, and smoke cessation interventions can affect the entire spectrum of cancer treatment.
