Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects of OBP-301 when given together with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and radiation therapy in treating patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal cancer that invades local or regional structures. OBP-301 is a virus that has been designed to infect and destroy tumor cells (although there is a small risk that it can also infect normal cells). Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving OBP-301 with chemotherapy and radiation therapy may work better than standard chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal cancer.
Surgical resection is currently the major treatment for esophageal carcinoma while disease progression still occurred in most cases within 3 years. The rate of local recurrence and distant metastases could reach nearly 40% to 60%. The neoadjuvant chemotherapy could significantly improve resection rate and overall survival after surgery. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common histology in Asia. JCOG9907 trial performed in Japan confirmed that compared to surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy, the combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery could further prolong overall survival. The regimen of cisplatin and fluorouracil is a classic effective option in combination therapy for esophageal carcinoma. Nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel is a novel taxane and has better efficacy in esophageal carcinoma treatment. We try to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin and capecitabine for locally advanced thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.
This trial will look at a drug called sigvotatug vedotin (SGN-B6A) alone and with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, to find out whether it is safe for people who have solid tumors. It will study sigvotatug vedotin to find out what its side effects are. A side effect is anything the drug does besides treating cancer. It will also study whether sigvotatug vedotin works to treat solid tumors. The study will have four parts. - Part A of the study will find out how much sigvotatug vedotin should be given to participants. - Part B will use the dose found in Part A to find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is and if it works to treat solid tumors. - Part C of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs. - Part D will include people who have not received treatment. This part of the study will find out how safe sigvotatug vedotin is in combination with these other drugs and if these combinations work to treat solid tumors. - In Parts C and D, participants will receive sigvotatug vedotin with either: - Pembrolizumab or, - Pembrolizumab and carboplatin, or - Pembrolizumab and cisplatin.
The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus paclitaxel, cisplatin followed by Da Vinci robot radical surgery for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has the highest annual increase in the rate of death among the top 10 leading cancers in Taiwan. This research aimed to explore whether increased anti-tumor immunity for OSCCs reduces the recurrence rate or improves survival. We first identified CD33+/CD11b+/HLA-DR-/low/CD14+/- as myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) surface markers by using flow cytometry to compare the MDSC frequency of OSCCs with blood samples from healthy donors (HDs). We then re-confirmed the suppression of T cell proliferation and function achieved by co-culturing with OSCC-educated MDSCs. We subsequently explore whether using particulate β-glucan as a food-grade supplement promotes the human immune system via subversion of immune modulatory MDSCs. Lastly, we correlated clinicopathological parameters with MDSCs and β-glucan administration to examine anti-tumor immunity, and to predict the therapeutic effect and prognosis in OSCC patients..
This Phase II randomized study is to determine the efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy before definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma(ESCC) by assessing their weight, nutritional status, performance status and treatment response.
This is a Phase II treatment, non-randomized, open label clinical trial to study the efficacy of the Cetuximab when administered as single agent in recurrent/ metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma after the failure or intolerance of immuno-oncology or immuno-oncology combined with chemotherapy.
This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label, study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of intratumoral T3011 given alone and in combination with intravenous pembrolizumab in partients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This clinical trial will evaluate a new combination of pembrolizumab, HPV-16 E6/E7 specific therapeutic vaccination (ISA101b) and cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy for patients with newly diagnosed, local-regionally advanced, intermediate risk HPV-associated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
This prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of TC Regimenwith or without nimotuzumab in recurrent metastatic oral squamous cell carcinoma. Treatment may continue as long as participants are experiencing clinical benefit as assessed by the investigator, i.e., in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or symptomatic deterioration attributed to disease progression.
