NCT ID: NCT03040999 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Neoplasms

Study of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) or Placebo With Chemoradiation in Participants With Locally Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (MK-3475-412/KEYNOTE-412)

Start date: April 5, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab given concomitantly with chemoradiation (CRT) and as maintenance therapy versus placebo plus CRT in participants with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA HNSCC). The primary hypothesis is that pembrolizumab in combination with CRT is superior to placebo in combination with CRT with respect to event-free survival (EFS).

NCT ID: NCT03037385 Completed - Neoplasms Clinical Trials

Phase 1/2 Study of the Highly-selective RET Inhibitor, Pralsetinib (BLU-667), in Participants With Thyroid Cancer, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, and Other Advanced Solid Tumors

ARROW
Start date: March 17, 2017
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of pralsetinib (BLU-667) administered orally in participants with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), RET-altered NSCLC and other RET-altered solid tumors.

NCT ID: NCT03035825 Completed - Dry Mouth Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Oral Moisturizing Jelly on Oral Health and Nutrition in Post-radiotherapy Head and Neck Cancer Patients

Start date: March 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This randomized control trial aims to investigate the efficacy of oral moisturizing jelly in head and neck cancer patients with xerostomia.

NCT ID: NCT03034603 Completed - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

The Safety and Efficacy Test of Nutri-PEITC Jelly in Head and Neck Cancer Patients

Start date: August 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This triple-blinded randomized placebo control trial aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of Nutri-PEITC jelly, a functional food, in head and neck cancer patients. The primary outcome measure includes adverse events, health-related quality of life, tumor response and progression-free survival. The secondary outcome includes serum p53 and cytochrome C levels and functional status.

NCT ID: NCT03032250 Completed - Caregiver Clinical Trials

Prepare to Care, A Supported Self-Management Intervention for Head and Neck Cancer CaregiversHead and Neck Cancer

Start date: May 15, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This pilot clinical trial studies how well Prepare to Care kit works in improving caregiver support in patients with stage I-IV head and neck cancer that is new or has come back. Prepare to Care kit may increase knowledge about head and neck cancer and enhance stress-management skills.

NCT ID: NCT03030859 Completed - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Cancer

Self-Care for Head and Neck Cancer Survivors With Lymphedema and Fibrosis

Start date: June 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies how well the self-care program works in head and neck cancer survivors with lymphedema and fibrosis. A self-care program may promote self-care activities for managing chronic swelling and tough/tight tissues in the head and neck region.

NCT ID: NCT03028766 Completed - Larynx Cancer Clinical Trials

WEE1 Inhibitor With Cisplatin and Radiotherapy: A Trial in Head and Neck Cancer

WISTERIA
Start date: June 22, 2017
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This trial is to determine what dose of a drug called AZD1775 can safely be given in combination with cisplatin before surgery and with chemo-radiotherapy after surgery in patients with Head and Neck Cancer. The Investigators will also get some preliminary information regarding the effectiveness of this combined treatment.

NCT ID: NCT03020823 Terminated - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Neoplasms

To Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of SCB01A in Subjects With r/m Squamous Cell Head and Neck Cancer

Start date: April 30, 2017
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of i.v. infusion for 24-hour of SCB01A in subjects with squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck who have failed previous platinum based therapies.

NCT ID: NCT03019003 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Cancer

Oral Decitabine (ASTX727) and Durvalumab in Recurrent and/or Metastatic Head and Neck Cancer Patients

Start date: March 20, 2017
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a non-randomized, open-label, Phase IbI study to assess the safety and efficacy of oral decitabine (ASTX727) and durvalumab (MEDI4736) combination therapy in the treatment of patients with recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) who have progressed during or after treatment with anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-CTLA-4 monotherapy for recurrent and/or metastatic disease. The clinical trial is studying drugs that can boost the participant's immune system against the cancer cells as a possible treatment for head and neck cancer. The study interventions involved in this study are: - Oral Decitabine (ASTX 727) - Durvalumab (MEDI4736)

NCT ID: NCT03015077 Completed - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Cancer

Effects of Oral L-Glutamine in Head and Neck Cancer Patients During Radiotherapy

Start date: July 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The rapidly increasing mortality and incidence of oral cancer has become a public health major problem in Taiwan. To date, the treatment of head and neck cancer mainly include surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, radiotherapy and chemotherapy might have an influence on the patients' diet by causing dismal side effects, including nausea, vomiting, pain, infection, dysorexia, allotriogeustia, oral ulceration and dysphagia, which make the patients more difficult to absorb nutrients. In the previous study, the incidence of malnutrition among the patients with cancer has been estimated at between 40 and 80%, especially occurred in the patients with head and neck cancers and upper gastrointestinal cancers. In this study, the effect of supplement with L-Glutamine on the nutritional status and radiation-induced toxicity of head and neck cancer patients will be evaluated to improve the patients' quality of life when they are undergoing radiotherapy. When the head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy, patients' instructions and nutrient intervention of L-Glutamine are performed to maintain the patients' nutritional status and reduce the patients' diet-related or other side effects caused by radiotherapy. It is anticipated that head and neck cancer patients with surgery and radiotherapy intake with L-Glutamine might decrease treatment-related side effects and hence improve their quality of life when they are undergoing radiotherapy.
