Study Summary

This trial is testing a new way to see if a treatment is working for melanoma that has spread to the lymph nodes or in-transit/satellite areas.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with a specific type of skin cancer called cutaneous melanoma, who can consent to the study and are willing to undergo PET scans and tumor biopsies. They must not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use birth control, have no other active cancers or recent treatments, and should not have immune system problems.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing how effective nivolumab alone or combined with Vidutolimod (CMP-001) is in treating melanoma that affects lymph nodes or nearby skin areas. It also looks at changes in PET scan results before and after these treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Nivolumab may cause fatigue, skin reactions, issues with lung function like coughing or shortness of breath, hormonal gland problems leading to mood swings or tiredness, liver inflammation causing nausea or yellowing of the skin/eyes. Vidutolimod's side effects are currently under investigation but could be similar.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Does this clinical investigation introduce a new concept?

"At present, there are 718 active studies for [18F]F-AraG PET/CT in 2354 cities and 49 nations. The pioneering trial was launched by Ono Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd back in 2012 with 659 participants who completed both Phases 1 & 2 of the drug approval stage. In the 8 years since then, 254 trials have been concluded successfully."

Answered by AI

Could you provide a synopsis of the research that has been conducted utilizing [18F]F-AraG PET/CT?

"Currently, there are 718 studies actively evaluating [18F]F-AraG PET/CT with 82 trials in the late stages of development. While a considerable portion of these experiments occur in Zürich, Belgium, data reveals that 40237 sites worldwide are running related research."

Answered by AI

What illnesses is [18F]F-AraG PET/CT being employed to treat?

"[18F]F-AraG PET/CT is frequently used in cancer treatment, particularly for malignant neoplasms. However it can also be utilized to combat other conditions such as metastatic esophageal adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and unresectable melanoma."

Answered by AI

Are there opportunities to join this experiment currently available?

"Clinicaltrials.gov implies that this medical trial is actively enrolling participants. The original listing was published on September 2nd 2020 and the post has been recently modified on November 8th 2022."

Answered by AI

To what extent could [18F]F-AraG PET/CT be harmful to individuals?

"Our assessment of [18F]F-AraG PET/CT's safety is a 2, seeing as this is an ongoing Phase II trial - there is evidence to suggest that it has no major risks but its efficacy still needs further study."

Answered by AI

What outcome is this research attempting to accomplish?

"This clinical trial, set to be assessed over an 8-10 week timeframe, seeks to determine the Immune-related Major Pathologic Response rate. Secondary objectives include gauging Adverse Events at Least Possibly Related to Study Treatment according to CTCAE Version 5.0 criteria, Relapse-Free Survival rates and Overall Survival times of enrolled patients."

Answered by AI

How many volunteers have enrolled in this clinical experiment?

"Yes, the records on clinicaltrials.gov demonstrate that this medical trial is presently recruiting participants. The study was posted in September 2020 and updated November 2022, with 26 individuals required to be recruited from a single site."
