Filter by:Doctors leading this study will give blood tests to head and neck cancer participants during the beginning of chemotherapy treatment (also known as induction therapy) to see if these blood tests can help predict tumor shrinkage after therapy and reduce the amount of additional radiotherapy or chemotherapy treatment the participant may need. This study will also examine ways to reduce overall side effects of treatment using robotic surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, or radiotherapy alone.
This is a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative treatment with durvalumab combined with neoajuvant therapy (carboplatin, paclitaxel with/without radiation) in locally advanced resectable oesophageal squamous carcinoma.
The investigators have developed a portable, battery-operated, mobile high-resolution microendoscope (mHRME) that provides subcellular images of the anal epithelium, delineating the cellular and morphologic changes associated with neoplasia. The investigators' central hypothesis is that this 'optical' approach will increase the efficiency, clinical impact, and cost-effectiveness of the current standard of high-resolution anoscopy(HRA)-guided biopsy, thus facilitating usage by less-experienced clinicians in community-based or low-resource settings. To validate this, the investigators will conduct a study to determine the efficiency and diagnostic characteristics of the mHRME 'optical biopsy' approach versus the current standard of HRA-based tissue biopsy. Successful results will allow for improved efficacy and resource utilization for cancer screening in people living with HIV for anal cancer and other epithelial cancers including the cervix, oral cavity, bladder, and GI tract.
This study aims to characterize the profile and outcomes for patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung (SqCC) who progress on 1L pembrolizumab in combination with platinum based chemotherapy and receive afatinib as second line (2L) therapy.
This phase II trial investigates how well sodium thiosulfate works in preventing ototoxicity (hearing loss/damage) in patients with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) who are undergoing a chemoradiation. Sodium thiosulfate is a type of medication used to treat cyanide poisoning and to help lessen the side effects from cisplatin. Chemotherapy drugs, such as 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 chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. The purpose of this trial is to find out whether it is feasible to give sodium thiosulfate 4 hours after each cisplatin infusion along with standard of care radiation therapy in patients with head and neck cancer. Giving sodium thiosulfate after cisplatin may help decrease the risk of hearing loss.
The aim of this study is to use the combination of immune checkpoint inhibitor of Toripalimab, and chemotherapy agents of TP, as a neoadjuvant therapy to treat the patients with locally advanced OSCC, followed with radical surgery and post-operative radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy, the major pathological response and safety will be evaluated as the primary surrogate endpoints, the 2-year survival rate and local recurrence rate will be the second endpoints.
This study will consider the safety and effectiveness of a study drug, CAN04, in combination with pembrolizumab, in the treatment of incurable or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, urothelial cancer, or malignant melanoma. The study aims to establish a recommended dose of CAN04 in combination with the standard dose of pembrolizumab (Part 1), and in combination with pembrolizumab standard dose, and Standard of Care carboplatin and pemetrexed (Part 2 - subjects with stage IV, non-squamous metastatic NSCLC). CAN04, pembrolizumab. carboplatin and pemetrexed will be administered intravenously.
This trial tests new methods and materials for the real-time chemotherapy-associated side effects monitoring support system (RT-CAMSS) in patients with gastrointestinal cancers undergoing chemotherapy. RT-CAMSS is a monitoring support system that provides patients with evidence-based information and side-effect management and coping skills, emotional support and validation, and proactive care via text messages and questionnaires as they undergo chemotherapy.
Patients with early-stage squamous cell carcinomas of the vocal cord can be treated in an equivalent way in terms of carcinology by surgery or radiotherapy. The study will be to analyse the vocal outcome at 5 years of these two types of management in order to define whether one is superior to the other on this criterion of voice quality after treatment.
The trial is a study conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK characteristics of Carrimycin tablet and measure its anti-tumor efficacy initially in the treatment of patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (non NPC).
