Filter by:This is a randomized, open-label, prospective, pilot phase I/II study with focus on translational research and on the evaluation of the biological changes that are observed in sequential tumor tissue acquisition in patients with newly diagnosed advanced (stage IV) oral cavity SCC. Patients are treated with Durvalumab (arm A) or Durvalumab + Tremelimumab (arm B) after biopsy-confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced resectable SCCHN of the oral cavity. After surgery, the standard of care treatment is radiotherapy, and, depending on risk assessment concurrent cisplatin. Patients will be treated with Durvalumab (arm A) or Durvalumab and Tremelimumab (arm B) during six additional cycles, starting from day one of the postoperative radiotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab as first line treatment in combination with chemotherapy in participants with advanced unresectable/metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
This Phase I/Ib study is a Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Study of GZ17-6.02 Monotherapy and in Combination with Capecitabine, Given Orally on a Daily Schedule in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma
Patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic squamous cell penile carcinoma (SPC) who are in response or with stable disease after first line platinum containing polychemotherapy who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be offered to take part in the study. The patients may be pre-screened at the time of the 1st line chemotherapy. In order for patients to be enrolled, the investigator must have carried out a radiological assessment of the disease during first line systemic treatment (a maximum of between 3 and 6 cycles): the cancer must be controlled. Patients with disease progression cannot be included in the PULSE study as this is a maintenance study. After inclusion, Avelumab will be administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg, at a frequency of once every 2 weeks with appropriate supportive care.
This is a Phase 1b open-label dose escalation trial of Ad/MG1-MAGEA3 and Pembrolizumab in patients with Metastatic Melanoma or Cutaneous Squamous Cell Skin Cancer that has failed prior standard of care treatments. Upon determination of a Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or Maximum Feasible Dose (MFD) the study will be expanded into up to 24 additional Metastatic Melanoma patients.
Esophageal cancer is the sixth most common cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Esophageal adenocarcinoma has become more common in Western countries. In many Asian countries, however, Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) represents the most common esophageal cancer. In palliative chemotherapy for metastatic or recurrent ESCC, A combination of 5-fluorouracil and platinum was prescribed as a standard treatment for about 20 years. With this traditional regimen, the median progression free survival is approximately 7 months, and 1-year survival rate is reported to be 34%. Combinations of taxane and anthracycline are also considerable, but also shows the median survival less than one year. Though cytotoxic chemotherapy is current main treatment option, molecularly targeted agents are recently incorporated to improve survival in ESCC. There is a strong rationale for investigation of biologic agents targeting Epithelial Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) family in ESCC. EGFR is frequently overexpressed in esophageal cancer and is known to be associated with poor prognosis. Several EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been studied in esophageal cancer subjects and have shown clinical effects. In a recent Phase II trial using dacomitinib, pan-human epidermal growth receptor TKI, Partial response was observed in 10 of the 49 esophageal cancer subjects, with a response rate of 20.8%. Based on notable rationale in exploring impact of EGFR inhibition, we suggest multicenter phase II study to determine antitumor activity and safety of a other potent pan-HER inhibitor, Poziotinib in Esophageal Squamous cell carcinoma.
This clinical trial is for participants with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who are scheduled to have their tumor surgically removed. The study involves obtaining baseline tissue from a clinical biopsy or research biopsy and measurement of circulating tumor cells before surgery to determine whether AXL protein expression pre-treatment correlates to clinical outcomes (change in tumor size) after two doses of cetuximab. The importance of this study is to describe if AXL expression can be used as a biomarker to predict clinical response to cetuximab (CTX) treatment.
A common long-term side effect of anti-rejection (immunosuppressant) medications is skin cancer. This pilot clinical trial evaluates the feasibility of conducting a larger pivotal trial to examine the efficacy and safety of nicotinamide for prevention of keratinocyte carcinoma in solid organ transplant recipients. This pilot trial will transition into the pivotal trial if all feasibility targets are met.
This study will evaluate the feasibility of using more advanced IMRT (intensity modulated radiation therapy) techniques. This new technique is termed Temporally Feathered Radiation Therapy (TFRT). TFRT is designed to reduce the side effects of conventional radiation therapy. Research has shown that TFRT may lessen these side effects.
The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 combined with nimotuzumab as second-line therapy in patients with advanced cancerous esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
