Filter by:This is prospective research study which will include patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, esophagus and anal canal starting on first-line platinum based chemotherapy or any line of immunotherapy treatment.This study aims to characterize the dynamic changes in genomic, epigenetic, immune profiling and imaging data during treatment with systemic therapy. Patients will have archived tumor samples requested as well as blood samples collected at up to four time points to analyze these changes. Imaging data will be derived from patients' routine CT scans before and after treatment.
Drugs called checkpoint inhibitors help the immune system fight cancer. When the effectiveness of these drugs wears off, it may be possible to renew their effectiveness by combining it with a special type of radiation therapy called stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). SBRT is a commonly used type of radiation therapy that gives high dose radiation with high precision to tumors in 1-5 treatments. Radiation therapy, such as SBRT can also treat sites of metastases. The use of checkpoint inhibitors in combination with SBRT has been suggested to improve the immune response against cancer but has not been tested in a formal clinical trial. Up to three lesions can be treated with SBRT. This study only allows checkpoint inhibitors that are already approved by the Federal Drug Agency (FDA) for the treatment of your disease. All radiation therapy will be done on machines which are FDA approved.
The purpose of this research study is to test the combination of the anti-cancer drugs durvalumab, the study drug, and cetuximab as a treatment for metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer. Participants will receive both durvalumab and cetuximab.
In this phase I first-in-humans-study a vaccine consisting of arginase-1 (ARG1) peptides and the adjuvant Montanide ISA-51 will be tested in ten patients with metastatic solid tumors. Patients will be treated with an ARG1 vaccine every third week for 45 weeks.
The study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of dendritic cells vaccines pulsed with autologous whole tumor cell lysate for treating advanced solid tumor patients with high tumor mutation burden.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, side effects and benefits of autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) specific to personalized Neo-antigens in the treatment of patients with recurrent, metastatic and advanced solid tumors.
The study population has locally advanced or metastatic bronchial or head and neck cancer. This study assesses the value of concomitant chemo/radiotherapy with carboplatin daily during metastatic radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone. The realization of a systemic treatment during the radiotherapy could make it possible to obtain a benefit on the control of the evolution of the metastases and thus of the pains generated, as well as on the quality of life of the patients. In addition, a benefit in overall survival is possible.
Stomach cancer is the fifth largest cancer in the world. Despite many combinations of studies, metastatic stomach cancer shows a median survival period of 10 to 12 months. According to a report in Korea in 2010, 17 % of cancer patients had over-expression of human epidemiology growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2). And Using of Trastuzumab reported better results.Herzuma® is the Trastuzumab biosimilar (Biosimilar) cloned antibody. In this study, the investigators want to prospectively analyze the effects and side effects of Herzuma® in gastric or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.
Esophageal or esophageal-gastric junction squamous cell cancer has dismal prognosis. And still no promising chemotherapeutic drugs is existed. In this study, The investigators wanted to look at the effects and safety of first line docetaxel-PM and oxaliplatin weekly administration chemotherapy for the participants with inoperable or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
This study will attempt to determine the efficacy of checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab combination therapy followed by nivolumab monotherapy in patients with metastatic prostate cancer and other tumor solid tumor histologies harboring loss of CDK12 function as well as monotherapy nivolumab treatment in patient with metastatic prostate cancer harboring loss of CDK12 function.
