Brief description of trial (Data source: BASEC)

Bei der Kontrolle von Tumoren spielt das Immunsystem eine wichtige Rolle. Pembrolizumab (MK3475) ist ein Antikörper, der die Hemmung des Immunsystems durch den Tumor unterbindet respektive beendet und so die körpereigene Bekämpfung des Tumors steigert. Lenvatinib ist ein Hemmer eines Moleküls, das in Tumorzellen das Zellwachstum und die Entstehung neuer Blutgefässe fördert. Durch die Hemmung der Blutgefässentstehung wird die Nährstoffversorgung des Tumors verringert und somit das Wachstum des Tumors verlangsamt. In dieser Studie wird die Wirksamkeit und Sicherheit der Kombination von Pembrolizumab mit Lenvatinib auf verschiedene Tumorarten untersucht, welche zuvor schon mit der Standardtherapie/den Standardtherapien behandelt wurden und danach wieder aufegtreten sind (Rückfall). Die Studienteilnehmenden erhalten die Studienmedikation für ungefähr 2 Jahre. Nach Absetzen der Studienmedikation folgt eine Nachbeobachtungsphase.

Health conditions investigated(Data source: BASEC)

Es werden Studienteilnehmer gesucht, die an verschiedenen Arten von soliden Tumoren leiden. Es handelt sich bei diesen Tumoren um eine der folgenden Krebsarten: dreifach-negativer Brustkrebs, Eierstockkrebs, Magenkrebs, Darmkrebs, Glioblastom und Gallengangskarzinom. Alle Teilnehmer haben sich vor der Studie einer oder mehreren erfolglosen Krebsbehandlungen unterzogen und ihr Krebs ist soweit fortgeschritten, dass sich Tumorableger (Metastasen) gebildet haben.

Intervention investigated (e.g. drug, therapy or campaign) (Data source: BASEC)

An der Studie werden weltweit ca. 420 Patienten teilnehmen, ca. 30 davon in der Schweiz.
Nach einer genauen Eignungsabklärung und Eintrittsuntersuchung werden Sie eine Behandlung mit Pembrolizumab plus Lenvatinib erhalten.
Ihr Studienarzt wird dies näher mit Ihnen besprechen.


Behandlungsphase:
Alle Studienteilnehmer erhalten Pembrolizumab (200 mg) als Infusion alle 3 Wochen. Zusätzlich schlucken die Studienteilnehmer täglich eine Tablette Lenvatinib (20 mg). Die Studienbehandlung dauert ca. 2 Jahre, falls sich die Erkrankung in der Zeit nicht verschlechtert; danach kann die Behandlung mit Lenvatinib alleine fortgeführt werden, falls der Patient weiterhin vom Medikament profitiert.
Falls sich die Erkrankung während der Behandlung verschlechtert, wird die Therapie abgebrochen und Ihr Arzt wird mit Ihnen das weitere Vorgehen besprechen.
Im Rahmen der Studientermine können unterschiedliche Massnahmen und Untersuchungen erfolgen:

Gespräche mit dem medizinischen Personal, Blutentnahmen, Blutdruckmessungen, Elektrokardiogramme (EKG), Gewichtsmessung, Urinproben, Scans mit Computertomographen (CT) oder Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) mit oder ohne intravenös verabreichtem Kontrastmittel, usw.

Nach abgeschlossener Behandlung oder nach Studienabbruch erfolgt nach 30 Tagen eine Nachuntersuchung bevor der Studienteilnehmer in die Nachbeobachtungsphase übertritt.

Nachbeobachtungsphase:
Wurde die Medikation abgesetzt, weil die Behandlungsdauer von 2 Jahren erreicht wurde oder wurde die Medikation aus anderen Gründen als aufgrund des Fortschreitens der Krankheit abgebrochen, wird der Teilnehmer im Rahmen der Nachbeobachtung weiterhin alle 9 Wochen körperlich untersucht.

Wurde die Studienmedikation aufgrund von Fortschreiten der Krankheit oder aufgrund der Notwendigkeit einer neuen Therapie abgebrochen, wird der Studienteilnehmer im Rahmen der Nachbeobachtung alle 12 Wochen kontaktiert und zu seinem Gesndheitszustand befragt.
