Filter by:This is a prospective, observational study to analyze the clinical and dosimetric factors about the radiation oral mucositis caused by radical chemo-radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients and try to find the indicators for acute radiation oral mucositis.
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of maintenance chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Participants will be randomized to 3 arms. Arm 1, control group, participants will receive only 4-8 cycles of conventional chemotherapy; arm 2, participants will receive 6 cycles of maintenance chemotherapy after conventional chemotherapy; arm 3, experiment arm, after conventional chemotherapy, participants will receive maintenance chemotherapy until disease progression or intolerable toxicities.
1. Observe and compare the chrono-chemotherapy IMRT and conventional chemotherapy and intensity modulated radiotherapy term efficacy of the treatment of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. 2. Evaluation chrono-chemotherapy IMRT and conventional chemotherapy and intensity modulated radiotherapy in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma safety and tolerability. 3)observing the adverse reaction and effects of two groups,expected chrono-chemotherapy group can achieve lower toxicity, improve the curative effect, for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma provides a more reasonable way.
This study is for patients that have nasopharyngeal carcinoma, breast cancer, gastric cancer and other solid tumors. As epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is a well characterized molecule that is closely with poor prognosis and tumor metastasis and invasion. Many therapies targeting EpCAM have shown benefits for cancer patients. This study is to determine the safety of the engineered T cells armed with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) recognizing EpCAM. At the same time, efficacy is to be evaluated by the criteria of RECIST. The EpCAM CAR-T were produced by lentiviral transduction of the novel 2nd generation of CAR genes. Different cohorts of patients receive EpCAM CAR-T with a dose-escalating manner. This study is to find the largest dose of EpCAM CAR-T, to learn what the adverse effects are and to find out whether this experimental intervention might help patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, breast cancer and other EpCAM positive solid tumors.
A total of 300 patients with pathologically confirmed Locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma were enrolled. Patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 150 patients in each group. One group was treated with Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy combined with Endostar and the other group was treated with Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy. The short term efficacy and the toxic and side effects of these treatments were evaluated. The 1-year, 3-year, 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival of patients were analyzed. The investigators data may provide an alternative option for the treatment of Locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma with high efficacy and low toxicity.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of recombinant human endostatin(continuously-pumped)combined with chemoradiotherapy in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. The patients will be randomized to concurrent radiotherapy (CRT) arm and CRT + Endostar arm. All patients will receive one cycles of induction chemotherapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with weekly cisplatin and 3 cycles of chemotherapy after IMRT. Treatment cycles will be repeated every 21 days for a maximum of 4 cycles. In CRT + Endostar arm, Endostar will be continuously intravenous pumped (7.5 mg/m2) for 14 days (d1-d14) during chemotherapy and for 5 days/week (d-5-d-1, d3-d7, d10-d14, d17-d21) during IMRT.
A Phase II Trial of S-1 as Maintenance Treatment After Gemcitabine Plus Cisplatin Regimen Chemotherapy in Patients With Recurrent and/or Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether avelumab, an investigational antibody against programmed death-ligand (PD-L1), has an effect on recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer. Avelumab is designed to block the interaction between programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), a known immune checkpoint, and PD-L1. By blocking this interaction, the immune system may be stimulated, allowing it to more effectively recognize and attack the cancer.
This study will enroll patients with non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) that have residual Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA after curative radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. The purpose is to evaluate the survival in these patients treated with apatinib (YN968D1), an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (phase IIa) and to compare the survival in these patients treated with apatinib versus placebo (phase IIb).
This is a Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of two cycles versus three cycles of Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in treating patients with Low Risk Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma based on pretreatment plasma EBV DNA.
