Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?This trial is testing a new treatment called ELI-002 7P for patients with specific types of cancer. The treatment helps the immune system recognize and attack these cancer cells. ELI-002 7P targets mutations that are common in various cancers and have been studied for their role in tumor growth and resistance to treatments.
What data supports the idea that ELI-002 for Colorectal Cancer is an effective treatment?The available research does not provide any data on the effectiveness of ELI-002 for Colorectal Cancer. Instead, the studies focus on treatments for prostate cancer, specifically castration-resistant prostate cancer, and do not mention ELI-002 or its effectiveness for colorectal cancer or any other condition.2671013
Do I have to stop taking my current medications for the trial?The trial protocol does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but you cannot use immunosuppressive drugs.
What safety data is available for ELI-002 in colorectal cancer treatment?The provided research does not contain specific safety data for ELI-002, ELI-002 7P, or ELI-002 2P in the context of colorectal cancer treatment. The studies mentioned focus on other chemopreventive drugs and strategies, such as low-dose aspirin, COX-2 inhibitors, and dietary interventions, but do not address ELI-002 or its variants.134915
Is the drug ELI-002 a promising treatment for colorectal cancer?The information provided does not directly mention ELI-002, so we can't determine if it's a promising treatment for colorectal cancer based on these articles.58111214

This trial is for people with certain solid tumors that have specific KRAS/NRAS mutations. They should show no signs of recurring disease on a CT scan, and some may need to have tumor DNA or high levels of cancer markers after standard treatments. It's not for those with treatable mutations, brain metastases, or who are taking immunosuppressive drugs.

Inclusion Criteria

I am fully active or can carry out light work.
My solid tumor has a specific KRAS/NRAS mutation.

Exclusion Criteria

I have cancer that has spread to my brain.
I am currently taking drugs that suppress my immune system.
My tumor has mutations that can be treated with approved drugs.

Treatment Details

The study tests ELI-002 7P immunotherapy in patients with mutated KRAS/NRAS solid tumors. This treatment combines an immune-stimulating molecule (Amph-CpG-7909) with lipid-conjugated peptides (Amph-Peptides 7P), aiming to boost the body's defense against cancer cells.

Does a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor (tiracoxib) induce clinically sufficient suppression of adenomas in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis? A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial. [2021]There have been few placebo-controlled randomized double-blind studies of the clinical effects of selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors on the regression of colorectal tumors. This study was designed to examine the regressive effect of a selective COX-2 inhibitor, tiracoxib (JTE-522), on colorectal polyps in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), and its safety.

Chemoprevention of colorectal cancer in Japan: a brief introduction to current clinical trials. [2021]The rapidly increasing incidence of colorectal cancer in Japan poses a great challenge to researchers to develop preventive strategies against this disease. Thus far, several clinical trials for this purpose have been planned in Japanese subjects; some have been completed and documented while others are still ongoing. Also, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan recognizes the significance of cancer prevention studies, especially against colorectal cancer, including it as one of the pillars in the "Third Research Project on General Strategies against Cancer" and funding several large-scale projects. Among them are two chemoprevention studies currently being performed: in patients with previous sporadic colorectal tumors (J-CAPP study) and in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (J-FAPP study II). Both are double-blind randomized controlled trials with low-dose aspirin (100 mg/day), which is generally considered to be safe for long-term use. This article outlines relevant past clinical data and gives a brief introduction to these two studies.
Dietary-induced ERbeta upregulation counteracts intestinal neoplasia development in intact male ApcMin/+ mice. [2010]Most sporadic colorectal cancers (CRCs) develop through the adenoma-carcinoma sequence pathway and are initiated by adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene mutations. Estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) is recognized to progressively reduce its expression in adenomatous and carcinomatous tissues in humans. Moreover, ERbeta deficiency enhances small intestinal tumorigenesis in rodents. In the Apc(Min/+) mouse model, we evaluated intestinal polyp development and ERbeta expression plus other biological parameters influencing tumor growth (epithelial cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration) following the addition of a combination of the ERbeta-selective agonist silymarin (SIL) and/or lignin (LIG) to a high-fat/low-fiber diet. Forty-five Apc(Min/+) mice were divided in four groups: animals fed on the tumorigenic high-fat/low-fiber diet, the tumorigenic diet supplemented with SIL (0.02%) or purified LIG (6.24%) or SIL (0.005%) + LIG (6.24%). In these animals, we assessed polyp number and volume and their degree of dysplasia together with ERbeta messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein levels and epithelial cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis. The latter group of parameters was evaluated in normal and adenomatous mucosa and the results compared with those found in wild-type (WT) mice fed on the control diet. The addition of SIL or LIG to the diet and even more the specific combination of the two significantly counteracted intestinal tumorigenesis and increased ERbeta mRNA and protein levels. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were rebalanced and cell migration accelerated, restoring values similar to those observed in WT animals. Our results further support a protective effect of ERbeta in CRC suggesting the use of the combination of SIL-LIG as a potential approach against CRC development.

Prolonged treatment with three-weekly docetaxel plus daily prednisolone for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: a multicenter, phase II, open-label, non-comparative, extension study in Japan. [2022]There are few reports of long-term treatment with docetaxel in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) because of the limit of a maximum of ten cycles of treatment in TAX327 showing a survival benefit. Therefore, this study, ARD6563, was conducted to evaluate the safety of more than ten cycles of docetaxel in metastatic CRPC.

Chemoprevention of colorectal cancer. [2022]Colorectal cancer has become one of the most prevalent malignant diseases for both men and women. Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases or certain inherited cancer syndromes are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer and have naturally the highest need for cancer prevention. In familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and Lynch syndrome, most of the underlying germline mutations can be detected by DNA sequencing, and medical counselling of affected individuals involves both surveillance tests and chemopreventive measures. However, as the mechanisms leading to colorectal cancer differ in these high-risk groups, the molecular action of chemopreventive drugs needs to be adjusted to the certain pathway of carcinogenesis. In the last decades, a number of drugs have been tested, including sulindac, aspirin, celecoxib, and mesalazine, but some of them are still controversially discussed. This review summarizes the advances and current standards of colorectal cancer prevention in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, FAP and Lynch syndrome.

Clinical Significance of Androgen Receptor Splice Variant-7 mRNA Detection in Circulating Tumor Cells of Men With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Treated With First- and Second-Line Abiraterone and Enzalutamide. [2022]Purpose We reported previously that the detection of androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) mRNA in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) correlated with poor outcomes from the use of abiraterone and enzalutamide in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Here, we expanded our cohort size to better characterize the prognostic significance of AR-V7 in this setting. Methods We prospectively enrolled 202 patients with CRPC starting abiraterone or enzalutamide and investigated the prognostic value of CTC detection (+ v -) and AR-V7 detection (+ v -) using a CTC-based AR-V7 mRNA assay. We examined ≥ 50% prostate-specific antigen (PSA) responses, PSA progression-free survival, clinical and radiologic progression-free survival, and overall survival. We constructed multivariable models adjusting for PSA, Gleason sum, number of prior hormone therapies, prior abiraterone or enzalutamide use, prior taxane use, presence of visceral metastases, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score. We also separately examined the first-line and second-line novel hormonal therapy (NHT) settings. Results Median follow-up times were 15.0, 21.7, and 14.6 months for CTC-, CTC+/AR-V7- and CTC+/AR-V7+ patients, respectively. CTC+/AR-V7+ patients were more likely to have Gleason scores ≥ 8 ( P = .05), metastatic disease at diagnosis ( P = .01), higher PSA ( P

[ARV-7: A biomarker for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer]. [2020]As more and more patients with metastatic prostate cancer develop resistance to androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) and consequently castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), reasonable selection of therapies is becoming increasingly important for the prediction of the therapeutic results. Many studies show that androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) is involved in the development and progression of CRPC and that the expression of AR-V7, absolutely higher in CRPC than in hormone-nave prostate cancer, plays a significant role in the mechanisms of resistance to abiraterone, enzalutamide and taxane chemotherapies. Further more, some clinical trials have revealed that the AR-V7 level may indicate the prognosis of different therapeutic options: AR-V7 negative in circulating tumor cells suggesting the effectiveness of a new hormonal therapy and taxane chemotherapy while AR-V7 positive indicating the poor result of a new hormonal therapy. These findings show that AR-V7 could be a biomarker for therapeutic options and the prognostic evaluation of CRPC.
