CCTG has opened the anticipated international brain cancer study CCTG CE9 (LUMOS2) - joining forces with the Australian Cooperative Trials Group for Neuro-Oncology (COGNO) to make enrollment accessible to Canadian patients.
MRD Driven Study of Venetoclax + Chemotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Younger Patients with Intermediate Risk AML
Novel Therapeutics in Younger Patients with High-Risk AML (MM1YA-S01)
MODERN: An Integrated Phase 2/3 and Phase 3 Trial of MRD-Based Optimization of ADjuvant ThErapy in URothelial CaNcer
CTDNA Response Adaptive Immuno-Chemotherapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The CCTG ES3 NEEDS international esophageal cancer clinical trial is now opened in Canada. The study is investigating whether delaying surgery for patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus is as good as the current treatment.
Eradicating MRD in patients with AML prior to Stem Cell Transplant (ERASE)
Radiotherapy to Block (CURB2) Oligoprogression In Metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
SLIDE-HCC: Phase II trial of STRIDE (durvalumab + tremelimumab) + lenvatinib vs STRIDE in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma
CALMS: Combination Therapy with Luspatercept in Lower Risk MDS CTEP approval: 2024AUG27 (date of US Steering Committee Evaluation)
Lanreotide for the Prevention of Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula
Docetaxel and Hormone Treatment compared to Hormone Treatment alone in people with Metastatic Castration Sensitive Prostate Cancer and Less than Optimal PSA Response (TRIPLE-SWITCH)
The Phase 2 clinical trial will analyze blood-based biomarkers versus conventional radiography for cancer patients treated with immunotherapy; findings could change direction of lung cancer treatment
BRC8 MRI Brain Surveillance Alone versus MRI Surveillance and Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation (PCI): A Randomized Phase III Trial in Small-Cell Lung Cancer (MAVERICK)" has been centrally activated.
The CCTG Trialblazers raised $7200 as part of the Canadian Cancer Society's Relay For Life "At Home" event.
CCTG investigators are contributing to COVID-19 research by developing and leading innovative, cutting-edge clinical trials to support patients with cancer.
Congratulations to the 2019-2020 New Investigator Cancer Trials Practicum graduates!
There were four recent publications, including the primary publication for CCTG CO.26: A Phase II Randomized Study of Durvalumab and Tremelimumab and Best Supportive Care vs Best Supportive Care Alone in Patients with Advanced Colorectal Adenocarcinoma Refractory to Standard Therapies.
Trial-specific DSMC Summary Reports are now posted on trial websites. Single-study centres participating on these trials should download these reports and submit them to their Research Ethics Boards if required by local policy.
