Filter by:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy, and its incidence is expected to increase in many countries in coming decades. Approximately 70-80% of newly diagnosed HCC patients already have advanced disease. Sorafenib and lenvatinib are recommended as first-line options for advanced HCC, the median overall survival of the patients with advanced HCC receiving sorafenib reached 10.7 months. Based on the results of phase II clinical studies and the recommendation of guidelines, the PD-1 monoclonal antibody, such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab, have been approved to treat the patients with advanced HCC by the FDA. PD-1 monoclonal antibody has been recommended as a second-line therapeutic strategy for HCC in the 2018 CSCO guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of primary liver cancer. However, the results of existing studies indicate that the objective response rate (ORR) of first-line PD-1 antibody therapy for patients with advanced liver cancer is about 20%. There is a growing recognition of radiation-induced cancer cells-external tumor control mechanisms, in which radiation therapy(RT) contributes not only to local control of target lesions, but also to the control of metastases away from the treatment site. In recent years, RT combined with immunotherapy as a new treatment method has achieved certain curative effect in some patients with metastatic cancer. Therefore, it is interesting to investigate the efficacy of combining radiation therapy plus systemic anti-PD-1 immunotherapy for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
This phase IIa trial studies long-term low-dose erlotinib hydrochloride treatment to assess its efficacy and safety to prevent development of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with liver cirrhosis.
The aim of this study is to observe the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib in preventing high-risk recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma patients after liver transplantation.The cases are from patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent liver transplantation in the liver surgery department of Shanghai Renji Hospital. Patients enrolled in the study were randomly allocated in the lenvatinib group (54 patients) and the control group (54 patients) after stable condition.
The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of image guided de-escalation protocols in patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). So the investigators studied whether toxicities reducing treatment with omitted concurrent chemotherapy after good response to induction chemotherapy would maintain survival outcomes while improving tolerability for patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
This is a single-arm phase II clinical trial to evaluate the initial efficacy and safety of Sintilimab, a PD-1 Inhibitor, as Second-line Treatment in FH-deficient Renal Cell Carcinoma.
This is an open label, multi-center, randomized control phase II trial, to compare the efficacy and safety of sintilimab combined with anlotinib versus standard platinum-based chemotherapy as a first-line treatment in advanced NSCLC patients without driven-gene mutations.
The study is to explore the correlation between intestinal flora diversity and meta bolites in patients with advanced lver cancer rceiving Anti-PD-1 combined target-ed drug therapy,so that to get the analysis of intestinal flora of PD-1 inhibitors in liver cancer.
This is Phase 2, open label, non randomized single arm study to determine whether the administration of vactosertib with durvalumab will provide meaningful increases in the Overall Response Rate (ORR) in patients with urothelial cancers that fail to achieve a response with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 based regimens
Single arm phase II trial designed to assess the efficacy of durvalumab treatment in terms of 6-month progression-free survival. We will include 22 patients who will receive 1500 mg durvalumab (MEDI4736) via IV infusion Q4W <<for up to a maximum of 12 months (up to 13 doses/cycles) with the last administration on week 48>> or <<until confirmed disease progression>> unless there is unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or another discontinuation criterion is met. If a patient's weight falls to 30 kg or below for 1 week or longer ( ≥ 7 days) durvalumab will be permanently discontinued.
Thyroid carcinoma on struma ovarii (TCSO) is a rare ovarian tumor, derivate from monodermic teratomas. It represents about 0.01% of overall ovarian tumours, and 5 to 10% of struma ovarii. The diagnosis is histologic and retrospective after pelvic surgery. Because of its rarity, the treatment of TCSO is not consensual and should be validated in multidisciplinary team involved in rare ovarian carcinoma. TCSO should be taken care of as a thyroid carcinoma, in case of relapse, with systemic treatment, as tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), without any clinical trial proving this benefit. Indeed, molecular profiles and genomic expression is unknown, because of studies with few patients (less than 10) contrary to thyroid carcinomas with the TCGA genomic classification. The study purposes are the outcome of the patients after the first treatment and the comparison of the genomic profil in next generation sequencing (NGS) with TCGA thyroid carcinoma profile. Thus, the treatment could be tailored, confirming the same therapy as in thyroid carcinoma.
