Filter by:To test whether cetuximab improves efficacy/tolerance as compared to methotrexate in first line treatment of unfit patients ³ 70 years old with recurrent and /or metastatic HNSCC. Efficacy assessed by failure free survival
Microdialysis is admitted to be reliable by numerous surgeons to monitor flaps. Nevertheless, a few authors reported follow up with microdialysis in bone flaps, and they all described the position of the catheter in the surrounding soft tissue muscle. This surrounding soft tissue is not always the reflect of bone vascularisation. The aim is to study the feasibility of a follow up of microanastomosed bone flaps with microdialysis. To reach this goal, investigators perform a clinical prospective research project untitled MTM project
The purpose of the study is to determine whether prophylactic gastrostomy leads to less treatment interruption and provide better quality of life in head and neck cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if using preventive treatments such as Doxycycline (an anti-biotic) capsules, sunscreen with SPF 30, Hydrocortisone 1% cream and a moisturizer will help to reduce the incidence and severity of the skin rash associated with Cetuximab (Erbitux®) when compared to receiving standard care for the treatment of skin rash.
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase II dose of nilotinib when used in combination with cetuximab in the treatment of patients with recurrent and/or metastatic Kras wildtype colorectal cancer or squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a novel edible nutritious gel for patients with chewing and swallowing difficulties, Nutri-jelly, is effective in improving the quality of life of head and neck cancer patients while undergoing conventional radiotherapy.
This clinical trial is aimed to establish a recommended starting dose of ipilimumab for a future efficacy trial when used in combination with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and cetuximab.
This randomized, open-label, phase III study will be performed in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck cancer which has progressed after platinum-based therapy. The objectives of this trial are to compare the efficacy and safety of afatinib versus methotrexate.
The purpose of this study is to determine the utility of kilovoltage (kV) cone beam CT imaging to track the dose delivered in head and neck cancer patients, to assess the benefit of cone beam CT to patients set-up for radiation treatment, to determine how shifts based on kV cone beam CT compare to the standard approach (orthogonal pair), and to develop remote access tools (preferably internet-based) so that the MD can approve these plans in real time.
Phase II Study of efficacy and safety of buparlisib (BKM120) plus paclitaxel versus placebo plus paclitaxel in recurrent or metastatic Head and Neck cancer previously pre-treated with a platinum therapy.The primary endpoint was PFS and the key secondary endpoint was Overall Survival.
