Filter by:Given that up-regulation of the Wnt pathway has been identified as having a significant role in carcinogenesis in advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, the investigator believes that inhibition of Porcupine via WNT974 will result in tumor control hence improvement in disease free and overall survival in these patients with a tolerable toxicity profile. As suggested by pre-clinical models, patients with a tumor harboring a Notch receptor (any of the four) loss of function mutation may have a greater response rate to treatment with WNT974. The investigator aims to address this question by administration of single agent WNT974 and following response radiologically along with close clinical follow up to monitor toxicities.
This study will test feasibility, in smokers with lung, head & neck, and bladder cancers, that examines the effect of e-cigarette substitution, on measures of smoking-related toxicity and medical outcomes. The aim of the study is to determine the appeal of e-cigarettes compared to regular combustible cigarettes.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial examining 12-week, 24-week and one year outcomes from a combined therapeutic and physical exercise program that aims to bridge head-and-neck cancer survivors from acute care rehabilitation services to community-based exercise programming.
This is a phase 2 study whose main purpose is to evaluate gene changes and immune biomarkers in patients with solid tumors during treatment with pembrolizumab and in relation to response to treatment. Pembrolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that is designed to block a protein called programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) which will allow the body's immune system to kill the cancer cells.
The purpose of this study is to test the good and bad effects of an experimental drug called SF1126. This drug is being tested in patients whose cancer has not been controlled by available standard therapies and who have certain genes in their tumor. SF1126 is a drug that inhibits a cell protein called phosphatidyl inositol 3 kinase (PI3K). PI3K is part of signaling pathway that tells cancer cells to grow, survive, invade and metastasize. PI3K also has an important role in the development of blood vessels that are required to support tumor growth. SF1126 is being developed by SignalRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. It is considered an experimental drug because it is not approved by the FDA for any disease treatment.
The objective of this study is to evaluate in a 3 +3 design, the safety of escalating doses of Monalizumab given IV in combination with cetuximab in patients who have received prior systemic regimen(s) for recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Cohorts expansion will evaluate antitumor activity of monalizumab and cetuximab with or without anti-PD(L)1
A phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Docetaxel-PM in recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
This dose-escalation study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of IPI-549 monotherapy and IPI-549 in combination with nivolumab in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
This study will test an investigational study drug called patritumab. It is a 'randomized study' which means participants have an equal chance of being assigned to receive the experimental medication (patritumab) or a substance that looks like the experimental product, but is not (placebo). Patritumab may work when combined with other medications that are approved for the treatment of head and neck cancer. They are called cetuximab, cisplatin or carboplatin. All participants will receive the other medications approved for treatment of head and neck cancer, even if they do not receive the experimental product.
Recombinant human endostatin adenovirus injection is a novel anti-tumor gene therapy drug. E10A contains a recombinant human endostatin gene with the second-generation recombinant adenovirus as its vector. After transfection tumor cells. E10A expresses human endostatin, which inhibits vascular endothelial cell proliferation and tumor angiogenesis, and blocks tumor blood supply, thereby specifically inhibiting tumor growth and inducing apoposis of tumor cells. Both pre-clinical and animal models have demonstrated the anti-tumor activities of E10A. The safety and efficacy of E10A in treating head and neck cancer has also been demonstrated in Phase I and Phase II studies.
