Filter by:This is a phase 1b/2, open-label, multicenter trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, biologic activity, and preliminary efficacy of intratumoral SD-101 injections in combination with intravenous pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic melanoma or recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This study will be conducted in 2 phases. Phase 1 evaluates SD-101 given in combination with pembrolizumab in melanoma populations (anti-PD-1/L1 naïve and anti-PD-1/L1 experienced with progressive disease) in up to 4 Dose Escalation cohorts to identify a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) to be evaluated in up to 4 Dose Expansion cohorts in Phase 2. Phase 2 also includes up to 4 Dose Expansion cohorts of patients with HNSCC (anti-PD-1/L1 naïve and anti-PD-1/L1 experienced with progressive disease).
Explore the efficacy and safety of the treatment of Endostar continuous intravenous injection pump combined DP scheme for first-line advanced lung squamous carcinoma and maintenance treatment., and explore the predicted biomarkers.
Early detection of viable residual tumor or early neoplastic recurrence represents a real challenge in monitoring patients treated with concomitant chemoradiotherapy squamous cell carcinoma of the upper aerodigestive tract. The locoregional recurrence rate is indeed high (up 40%) over the first two years of this therapeutic method. The conventional imaging methods such as CT and MRI appear limited in terms of sensitivity because of the many post-treatment changes are fibrosis, tissue edema and the tissue distortion. PET-CT 18F-FDG proves to be a non-invasive, reliable for the detection of residual tumor and metastasis, even in the absence of clinical signs. To date, the acquired CT examination in the same time and in the same position that PET is performed without iodinated contrast injection, used for anatomical identification and attenuation correction of PET fused images. The patient usually has a second CT imaging, centered on the neck with contrast injection iodized within the radiology department. To date, no team has yet studied the interest of the PET-CT 18F-FDG coupled with a CT scan with contrast injection iodized in the diagnosis of early recurrence in head and neck malignancies while interest of the contrast agent injection has been demonstrated in ovarian neoplastic recurrence research, pancreatic and colon.
Malnutrition is currently a major factor of morbidity and mortality, which poses a major public health problem in developing countries but also, albeit to a lesser degree and for different reasons, for industrialized countries. It is recognized that in countries "of the North", from 30 to 60% of hospitalized patients suffer from dénutrition. In any case, it is covered by an imbalance between the contributions and needs; the two main mechanisms are a delivery failure (fasting, ingesting difficulty ...) and / or increased requirements (hypermetabolism ...). In cancer patients the Aero-Digestive Upper Airways (VADS), this imbalance is even more pronounced than the two mechanisms exist and potentiate. Patients included in this study are a population at risk, because of their therapeutic containing at least radiotherapy. It is recognized that this form of therapy exposes dental complications, mucous, saliva. These complications have a deleterious effect on the nutritional status of patients. The diagnosis, treatment and prevention of dénutritions have an important place in the therapeutic strategies of this type of cancer because it is events whose incidence and morbid consequences are high and for which there are appropriate nutritional treatments in most cas. While the complete correction of malnutrition generally passes by the effective etiological treatment of the causal pathology, therapeutic efficacy of the latter is often conditioned by the nutritionnel state. In addition to these concepts, investigators wants to study the benefits of a diet followed during the irradiation phase of patients with head and neck cancers and New treaties. We propose a randomized, phase III, open, multicenter, to evaluate the impact of a dietary consultation at home on the life quality of patients with head and neck cancer including first therapeutic sequence involves radiotherapy more or less aware. The duration of the study is 24 months. The main objective is to evaluate the impact of a dietary consultation at home on the life quality of patients with head and neck cancer including first therapeutic sequence involves a more or less sensitized radiotherapy.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of WEE1 inhibitor MK-1775 when given together with docetaxel and cisplatin in treating patients with stage III-IVB squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that may or may not be able to be removed by surgery (borderline resectable). WEE1 inhibitor MK-1775 may block the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of enzymes that are needed for tumor growth and may also help docetaxel and cisplatin work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving WEE1 inhibitor MK-1775 with docetaxel and cisplatin before surgery may kill more tumor cells and shrink the tumor, allowing patients to undergo surgery to remove it.
This study aims to determine the safety and efficacy of expanded activated autologous NK cells administered after cetuximab in patients with EGFR-positive nasopharyngeal carcinoma or head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
This pilot clinical trial studies isolated limb perfusion with melphalan in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV melanoma or sarcoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the arteries around the tumor may kill more tumor cells.
This multicentre, open-label, Phase 1b/2 study is designed as a 2 part study consisting of a dose-escalation, safety run-in Part A and a dose-expansion Part B
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of palbociclib with cetuximab is superior to cetuximab in prolonging overall survival in HPV-negative, cetuximab-naive patients with recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best doses of cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with genitourinary (genital and urinary organ) tumors that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether giving cabozantinib s-malate and nivolumab alone or with ipilimumab works better in treating patients with genitourinary tumors.
