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.
Botensilimab + Balstilimab vs Best Supportive Care as Therapy in Chemo-refractory, Unresectable, Colorectal Adenocarcinoma: The BATTMAN Trial
STRIDE (durvalumab + tremelimumab) with Lenvatinib vs STRIDE Alone in Patients with Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (SLIDE-HCC)
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.
Venetoclax and HMA-based Therapies for the Treatment of Older and Unfit Adults with Newly Diagnosed FLT3-mutated AML: A myeloMATCH Treatment Trial
Eradicating MRD in Patients with AML prior to Stem Cell Transplant (ERASE)
LUNA-2: LND101 in Unresectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Randomized Phase II Trial
VIGOR: Vorasidenib as Maintenance Treatment after First-line Chemoradiotherapy in IDH-mutant Grade 2 or 3 Astrocytoma
RAINBO-ORANGE: Treatment of Endometrial Cancer Based On Molecular Features
Delayed Reduced Volume and Dose Elective Ratiotherapy (REVERT) in Patients with HNSCC
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.
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!
The CCTG Trialblazers raised $7200 as part of the Canadian Cancer Society's Relay For Life "At Home" event.
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.
The CCTG Connection will be on hiatus until the Fall.
