Dermatology Clinical Trials

Researchers are comparing IMA203 cellular therapy with standard treatment in people with melanoma of the skin. Their melanoma is inoperable (cannot be surgically removed) or metastatic (has spread) and keeps growing despite treatment.

Researchers are measuring the safety of ivonescimab when given with standard lung cancer treatments and seeing how well it works. The people in this study have been newly diagnosed with squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has metastasized (spread).

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of treatment with axitinib and nivolumab immunotherapy for people with advanced mucosal melanoma that has not yet been treated. Axitinib blocks the development of blood vessels that cancer cells need to grow and spread ("angiogenesis"). Nivolumab boosts the ability of the immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of nivolumab immunotherapy alone and with the drug cabozantinib to reduce the chance that mucosal melanoma will come back after surgery. Nivolumab boosts the power of the immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells. Cabozantinib inhibits cancer cell growth by blocking certain enzymes.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drug ZEN003694 in people with advanced squamous cell lung cancer that continues to grow despite treatment and contains multiple copies of a gene called NSD3. ZEN003694 blocks a group of proteins called BET, which may counteract the effect of NSD3 on tumor growth. Blocking these proteins may slow or stop the growth of lung cancer. ZEN003694 is taken orally (by mouth).

Researchers in this study are exploring the feasibility of making an immunotherapy in a laboratory using white blood cells (called lymphocytes or T cells) collected from the tumor of a patient with metastatic uveal melanoma. This is called autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy. The TIL therapy being assessed in this study is called LN-144, and it is designed to activate white blood cells to attack the tumor.

The purpose of this study is to establish a registry to learn about neurocutaneous melanocytosis (NCM) and how people respond to treatments for this rare disease. NCM is seen mainly in children born with large dark-colored areas of skin called cutaneous melanocytic nevi (LCMN). About one in four of children with LCMN also develop NCM.

The usual care for people with squamous cell skin cancer is surgery, with or without radiation therapy. Sometimes the cancer comes back (recurs). For this reason, researchers are studying other treatments for squamous cell skin cancer.

Researchers in this study want to compare sentinel lymph node biopsy surgery with standard neck dissection as part of the treatment for people with early-stage oral cavity (mouth) cancer. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a procedure that removes a smaller number of lymph nodes from the neck because it uses an imaging agent to see which lymph nodes are most likely to have cancer. Standard elective neck dissection removes many of the lymph nodes in the neck but may reduce shoulder mobility and strength.
