Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib works in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with rare genitourinary (GU) tumors that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body. Cabozantinib 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. Giving cabozantinib, nivolumab, and ipilimumab may work better in treating patients with genitourinary tumors that have no treatment options compared to giving cabozantinib, nivolumab, or ipilimumab alone.
TQB2450 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1), which prevents PD-L1 from binding to PD-1 and B7.1 receptors on T cell surface, restores T cell activity, thus enhancing immune response and has potential to treat various types of tumors.
The purpose of this single arm, phase Ⅱ clinical trail is to determine the safety and efficacy of paclitaxel (albumin bound),bleomycin and cisplatin or carboplatin in the treatment of recurrent Or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
The law about advance directives is evolving but, in France, few people write it. Te main endpoint of this research is to estimate the proportion of patients who have written their advance directives or considering doing so in onco-dermatologic population. If this rate remains low, some insights on the reasons will be able to be advanced looking at the point of view and opinion of patients about this topic. Seconds endpoints are : For patients against or not planning to write it, understand their reasons Estimate the proportion of patients requesting information and understand how they would like to receive it. Investigate a possible association between the stage of the oncological disease and the positioning of the patient concerning advance directives.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of recombinant anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody(SCT200)in patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma progressed following treatment with taxane/platinum/fluorouracil.
The benefit of induction chemotherapy followed by chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is unknown. The present study is investigating if this therapeutic strategy improve overall survival.
A single-arm phase II trial to assess the efficacy and safety profile of pembrolizumab in patients with performance status of 2 with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Patients will receive best supportive care + pembrolizumab 200mg every 3 weeks for a maximum duration of 24 months
Background: Head and neck cancer is a group of cancers that start in the mouth, nose, throat, larynx and sinuses. The usual treatment is surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or a combination of those. Approximately 50% of HPV-negative head and neck cancer patients that have been treated with any of these modalities will have a recurrence. For these patients, current treatment options include surgery and re-irradiation with chemotherapy, which can reduce symptoms and may stop the tumor from growing but in the majority of cases, only for a few months. In this trial, researchers want to see if they can cure or significantly lower the chance of head and neck cancer growing back or spreading by adding the new agent birinapant to re-irradiation. Objective: To test the safety of birinapant and re-irradiation at different doses in patients with head and neck cancer. Eligibility: Adults age 18 and older with head and neck cancer who are candidates for re-irradiation. Design: Participants will be screened with a review of their medical record. Participants will have exams and procedures that are part of their usual care. Participants will also have a test of heart activity before treatment. Participants will have urine pregnancy tests, if female. Participants will have blood and tumor samples taken 2 times and stored for research. The study lasts 6 weeks. Participants will get radiation for 5 days a week (Monday Friday) for all 6 weeks. Participant will get the study drug on 4 Tuesdays. They will get it in an arm vein over 30 minutes each time. About 4 weeks after the study ends, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will have a physical exam, health questions, and blood tests. Participants may have scans 4 times over the next 2 years. Participants will get an email or phone call every 6 months. Sponsoring Institute: National Cancer Institute
This trial studies how well proton beam radiation therapy compared with intensity modulated photon radiotherapy works in treating patients with stage I-IVA esophageal cancer. Proton beam radiation therapy uses a beam of protons (rather than x-rays) to send radiation inside the body to the tumor without damaging much of the healthy tissue around it. Intensity modulated photon radiotherapy uses high-energy x-rays to deliver radiation directly to the tumor without damaging much of the healthy tissue around it. It is not yet known whether proton beam therapy or intensity modulated photon radiotherapy will work better in treating patients with esophageal cancer.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ipilimumab, nivolumab, and radiation therapy and how well they work in treating patients with advanced human papillomavirus (HPV) positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving ipilimumab, nivolumab, and radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with HPV positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
