Hemithoracic Irradiation With Proton Therapy in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

Phase III randomised-controlled trial for patients with unilateral malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).

A Study of Pembrolizumab and Radiation Therapy in People With Mesothelioma

The purpose of this study is to find out whether IMPRINT in combination with pembrolizumab is a safe treatment for people with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).The highest dose of IMPRINT that causes few or mild side effects when given in combination with pembrolizumab will be found. Once the highest safe dose of IMPRINT is found, it will be tested in combination with pembrolizumab in future participants to see whether the combination may be an effective treatment for MPM.

Accelerated Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

This is a monocentric prospective study of radiotherapy using accelerated hypofractionation with Tomotherapy in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) patients after pleurectomy / decortication (P / D) or biopsy. The treatment will be delivered using Tomotherapy, that allows to adopt dose accelerated hypofraction criteria. Treatment duration is 5 consecutive days.

The IMmunotherapy Pleural 5-ALA PDT

Pilot study of the feasibility of an innovative multimodal treatment combining intrapleural photodynamic therapy with videothoracoscopy followed by adjuvant immunotherapy with anti-PD-1 Nivolumab antibodies in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma

Using E-Nose Technology to Measure Response to Treatment in People With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

The researchers are doing this study to test the ability of a new technology called breathprinting, or electronic nose (E-Nose), to measure how people respond to standard treatment for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). The researchers will study how E-Nose breathprints change over time as people receive standard treatment for MPM. They will also look at how changes in people's E-Nose breathprints compare to changes in their standard imaging scans and in biomarkers of MPM in their blood.

A Study of Nivolumab and Chemotherapy Followed by Surgery for Mesothelioma

This study will test whether giving nivolumab in combination with pemetrexed and either cisplatin or carboplatin before surgery is a safe and effective approach to treating resectable mesothelioma without delaying surgery.

APG-2449 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

APG-2449 is a novel, orally active, multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which inhibits FAK, ALK, and ROS1 with nanomolar potencies. In preclinical studies, APG-2449 demonstrated potent antiproliferative activity in various cancer cell lines as a single agent. In combination treatment, APG-2449 enhanced anti-proliferative activities of several chemotherapeutic and targeted agents. It is indicated that APG-2449 may have a broad therapeutic potential for the treatment of human cancer as a single agent and in combination with other classes of anticancer drugs. APG-2449 is intended for the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumors. Upon completion of the Phase 1 dose escalation study to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), several phase Ib/II studies will be implemented accordingly.

Study of Pembrolizumab Plus Chemotherapy With Lenvatinib for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

In this Phase-II study, the investigators will investigate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib in combination with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Efficacy & Safety of rAd-IFN Administered With Celecoxib & Gemcitabine in Patients With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

This study will evaluate intrapleural administration of Adenovirus-Delivered Interferon Alpha-2b (rAd-IFN) in combination with Celecoxib and Gemcitabine in patients with histologically confirmed Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) who have failed a minimum of 1 treatment regimen and a maximum of 2 treatment regimens, 1 of which must have been an anti-folate and platinum combination regimen. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to either: 1. Treatment group: rAd-IFN + Celecoxib followed by Gemcitabine 2. Control group: Celecoxib followed by Gemcitabine Patients randomized to the treatment group will receive rAd-IFN administered into the pleural space via an Intrapleural catheter (IPC) or similar intrapleural device on study Day 1. The primary objective of this study is to compare the overall survival (OS) associated with rAd IFN, when administered with celecoxib and gemcitabine, versus that associated with celecoxib and gemcitabine alone for the treatment of patients with MPM

Hemithoracic Arc Radiotherapy Post Pleural Decortication

Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma is an aggressive and refractory disease , the most aggressive treatment plan offered to these patients include trimodalitiy approach with chemotherapy as the mainstay of treatment . the rationale of post operative Radiotherapy is to sterilize the post operative volume to reduce local failure meanwhile minimizing toxicities in this trial we are going to assess the safety and efficacy of Radiotherapy in Mesothelioma patients poat Pleural decortication

Integration of the PD-L1 Inhibitor Atezolizumab and WT1/DC Vaccination Into Platinum/Pemetrexed-based First-line Treatment for Epithelioid Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

In this multicenter phase I/II trial, the programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor atezolizumab and dendritic cells (DCs) loaded with the mesothelioma-associated tumor antigen WT1 will be integrated into platinum/pemetrexed-based first-line chemotherapy for the treatment of epitheloid malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). The general objective is to provide the first-in-human experimental demonstration that the combination of platinum/pemetrexed-based chemotherapy with atezolizumab and WT1/DC vaccination is feasible and safe, has clinical activity and enables the induction of mesothelioma-specific immune responses in patients with MPM.

OT-101 in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Subjects With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Failing to Respond to Checkpoint Inhibition

This is a study of OT-101, a TGF-b2 inhibitor in combination of pembrolizumab in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma. Both efficacy assessment, and safety and tolerability of various dose of OT-101 in combination of pembrolizumab are evaluated.
