Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in adult participants with recurrent or metastatic(R/M) cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) or locally advanced (LA) unresectable cSCC that is not amenable to surgery and/or radiation and/or systemic therapies.
The gross tumor volumes of the primary site and the neck nodes (GTVnx and GTVnd) could be delineated according to the post-NACT tumor position and receive radical radiation dose, while the tumor disappear after NACT could be encompassed in the first clinical target volume (CTV1) and receive high preventive radiation dose. Through this method,it is more likely to achieve the ultimate goal that maximize the chance of cure while minimize the injury of surrounding normal tissues, maintaining organ function and life quality. Therefore, this stage II clinical trial was designed to study the prognosis and locoregional failure patterns of this target volume delineation method in LA-NPC treated with NACT plus CCRT.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of Transoral Robotic Surgery (TORS) to identify small oropharyngeal carcinomas. Findings from this study will be used to better determine which patients may be suitable for more targeted radiotherapy that would lead to a reduction in the total amount of radiotherapy needed as part of their treatment. Reducing the amount of radiotherapy received has been found to reduce the risk of late complications and toxicity to the patient.The pathologic findings will then be used to determine patients who may be candidates for de-intensification of radiotherapy.
To evaluate the efficacy of KHK7580 orally administered up to 24 weeks for hypercalcemia in patient with parathyroid carcinoma or primary hyperparathyroidism who are unable to undergo parathyroidectomy or relapse after parathyroidectomy.
This is a single-center, single-arm, open-label, pilot trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of avelumab in subjects with unresectable or metastatic, Grade 3, poorly-differentiated neuroendocrine.carcinoma.
Avmacol is an over-the-counter dietary supplement containing broccoli seed and sprout extracts in tablet form, hypothesized to activate protective cellular pathways including detoxication. In this study, participants who have been curatively treatment for head and neck cancer, will take Avmacol twice a day for 3 months.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of using the new formulation (Lipiodol-cisplatin suspension) for TACE in the treatment of HCC as compared to the conventional formulation (Lipiodol-cisplatin emulsion). This is a prospective, parallel-group, open-label randomized, phase II study that is conducted in accordance to the Declaration of Helsinki and international standards of Good Clinical Practice, and approved by the institutional review board. Eligible patients were randomized into either a treatment arm of Lipiodol-cisplatin suspension or a control arm of Lipiodol-cisplatin emulsion with a 1:1 ratio.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 6th most common cancer in the world but the 2nd most important cause of cancer death. Because of its highly heterogeneous nature, the current approach to identifying druggable targets have not delivered efficacious therapies in HCC and is a main reason for the high case fatality. Even when surgical resection is potentially curative in early disease, tumor recurrence remains high and long term survival poor because of the absence of useful adjuvant therapy. To address these unmet needs, the investigators bring together internationally recognized scientists from genomics and immunology and established clinician investigators in a synergistic team. This TCR capitalizes on recent collaborative advances made by the PIs in the consortium. The investigators have shown through multi-region sampling of freshly resected HCC and phylogenetic analysis, that significant intra-tumoral heterogeneity exists and have identified the specific positions of known clonal drivers. Simultaneously the investigators have analyzed the immune landscape of the tumor microenvironment with deep immune-phenotyping and found unique inter-patient immune landscapes predictive of clinical trajectory. This TCR is a prospective study that samples resected HCC from multi-ethnic sites within the established Asia-Pacific Hepatocellular Carcinoma (AHCC) Trials Group, which has enrolled approximately 1000 patients through 6 multi-center trials in 35 centers in the region. Clinical trajectories are tracked and genomic and immunological studies are repeated when tumors recu r, to confirm clonally dominant driver mutations and immunological processes that are targetable. Concurrently, representative pre-clinical models will be developed from the tissues sampled. The investigators aim to combine these approaches to overcome the challenges posed by genomic heterogeneity and to guide the development of therapeutics and precision medicine in HCC.
This is a non-randomized, phase II, open label study of apatinib mesylate tablets plus tegafur gimeracil oteracil potassium capsules induction chemotherapy in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck patients who were judged surgically unresectable or appropriate for non-surgical definitive therapy.The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of apatinib mesylate tablets plus tegafur gimeracil oteracil potassium capsules in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck
The primary objective is to compare overall survival (OS) for patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who have histology of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and who have any eligible histology treated with either cemiplimab or investigator's choice (IC) chemotherapy. The secondary objectives performed among SCC patients and among all eligible histologies (SCC and adenocarcinoma/adenosquamous carcinoma (AC) are: - To compare progression-free survival (PFS) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy - To compare objective response rate (ORR) (partial response [PR] + complete response [CR]) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 - To compare the duration of response (DOR) of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy - To compare the safety profiles of cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy by describing adverse events (AE) - To compare quality of life (QOL) for patients treated with cemiplimab versus IC chemotherapy using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)
