The Commonwealth Neuroendocrine Tumour (CommNETs) Research Collaborative held their annual research workshop on December 7 & 8th 2019 in Tokyo Japan. Operating within the auspices of CCTG and AGITG (Australasian Gastro-Intestinal Trials Group) CommNETs provides a valuable forum for NET research collaboration among Canadian, Australian and New Zealand clinicians, researchers and patient representatives.
Prof Annette Hay speaks to ecancer at the ASH 2019 meeting in Orlando about accrual barriers and detection of early toxicity signal in older, less-fit patients treated with azacitidine and nivolumab for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Prof Hay says that AML and MDS are typically diseases of older people, yet these patients are poorly represented in clinical trials.
SC26 Emotion and Symptom-focused Engagement (EASE): A Randomized Controlled Trial for Individuals with Acute Leukemia has been centrally activated.
MAC7 (NCT00075764) trial: Phase III Randomized Trial of Anastrozole Versus Anastrozole and Fulvestrant as First Line Therapy for Post Menopausal Women With Metastatic Breast Cancer has been permenantly closed.
Objectives: To compare time to tumour progression in post-menopausal women with metastatic breast cancer treated with anastrozole versus anastrozole and fluvestrant. For more information please visit the CCTG MAC7 trial page.
REC.3 (NCT02761057), A Randomized, Phase II Efficacy Assessment of Multiple MET Kinase Inhibitors (Cabozantinib [NSC #761968], Crizotinib [NSC #749005],Savolitinib [NSC #785348], and Sunitinib [NSC #736511]) in Metastatic Papillary Renal Carcinoma (PAPMET), has been closed to accrual after completion of target accrual. Treatment and follow-up of accrued patients will continue according to the protocol.
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.
