Filter by:This study evaluates the addition of valproic acid as a chemopreventive drug in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients that do not have signs of recurrence or residual disease. The participants will be randomized 1:1 (valproic acid : placebo). The primary outcome is to document histone acetylation and DNA methyltransferase expression (DNMT) in saliva collected from participants when comparing valproic acid arm with placebo arm.
A two-arm Phase III trial was started in Oct. 2014. Definitive chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil is the standard in Western countries in esophagus cancer. But in China because of its toxic reaction, most of patients stop the halfway. The purpose of this study is to confirm the difference of 2 and 4 cycles of cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil in the definitive chemoradiotherapy for esophagus squamous cell carcinoma. A total of 210 patients will be accrued from China within 2 years. The primary endpoint is overall survival and the secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, response rate, pathologic complete response rate and adverse events.
This Prospective, single-arm Phase Ⅱ study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Once-daily Simultaneous Modulated Accelerated Radiotherapy combined with S-1/DDP for geratic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.
A two-arm (two cycles' versus four cycles' capecitabine combined oxaliplatin concurrent radiotherapy) randomised Phase III clinical trial was started in Oct. 2015. Definitive chemoradiotherapy is the standard regimen in Western countries for patients with esophageal cancer who can't receive surgery or reject surgery. But in China because of its severer toxic reaction, most of patients had to discontinue treatment at the halfway way. Thus, the chemotherapy regimen of capecitabine combined oxaliplatin are widely used in clinical due to its characristic of low toxic reaction. The purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of the different cycles(two cycles and four cycles ) of Capecitabine-oxaliplatin in Chinese esophageal squamous carcinoma radical concurrent chemoradiotherapy. A total of 60 patients will be accrued from China within 2 years. The primary endpoint is overall survival and the secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, response rate, pathologic complete response rate and adverse events.
Definitive chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin with cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil is the standard in Western countries in esophagus cancer.But in China because of its toxic reaction, most of patients stop the halfway.Because low toxicity, Capecitabine is widely used in the chemotherapy of esophageal cancer. The purpose of this experiment was to study the different cycle on capecitabine with chemotherapy for esophageal cancer chemoradiation effect.We are prepared to within 2 years study recruited 200 patients with esophageal cancer.The primary endpoint is overall survival and the secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, response rate,pathologic complete response rate and adverse events.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of triapine when given with radiation therapy and cisplatin in treating patients with stage IB2-IVA cervical or vaginal cancer. Triapine may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking an enzyme needed for cell growth. Cisplatin is a drug used in chemotherapy that kills cancer cells by damaging their deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Adding triapine to standard treatment with cisplatin and radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells.
This study will identify baseline and/or pharmacodynamic biomarkers of response to ruxolitinib, based upon association with quantitative change in tumor size following 14-21 days of neoadjuvant ruxolitinib in patients with operable HNSCC.
The purpose of this study is to determine which regimen is better for esophageal squamous carcinoma in concurrent chemoradiation(CCRT),paclitaxel or S1 plus cisplatin.
This is a single-arm, multi-site, open-label trial of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) used in combination with standard, cisplatin-based, definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in patients with stage III-IVB squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Approximately 39 patients with Stage III-IVB SCCHN will be enrolled to evaluate both the safety and efficacy of this novel combination. Subjects will not be randomized and will all receive the study treatment. Treatment will consist of a loading dose of pembrolizumab 200 mg IV given 7 days prior to initiation of CRT (day-7). CRT with cisplatin 40 mg/m2 IV weekly and head and neck radiation at 70 Gy fractionated at 2 Gy once daily over 35 days, will begin on day 1. CRT will end on approximately day 46-50. Pembrolizumab 200 mg IV will continue following CRT in an adjuvant fashion starting on day 57 for an additional 5 doses, as tolerated, through day 141. Subjects will be evaluated for response following treatment.
This open label, single-arm, Phase 1b study is designed to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) using a traditional 3+3 dose escalation design of the WEE-1 inhibitor AZD1775 when added to standard of care chemotherapy (cisplatin) and radiation for the treatment of locally advanced squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (HNSCC).
