Filter by:This multicentre, open-label, randomized phase II trial is ongoing in 30 centres in France. Main eligibility criteria include: histologically proven adenocarcinoma of the stomach, esophagus or gastroesophageal junction; locally advanced or metastatic disease; measurable disease (RECIST 1.1); no known HER2 overexpression; no prior palliative chemotherapy.
The purpose of this research study is to compare the effects of a lycopene supplement made from tomatoes to a placebo (a capsule with no active ingredients) in men who have abnormal cells in the prostate, but have not yet had cancer detected. This study will allow us to see if taking lycopene for six months leads to favorable changes in abnormal prostate tissue and in chemicals measured in the blood that go along with a higher risk of developing cancer.
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of afatinib alone or in combination with vinorelbine, as treatment in patients with HER2-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer, who have progressive brain lesions after trastuzumab and/or lapatinib based therapy
Epidermal growth factor receptor（EGFR） is a potential target for new anticancer therapy in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, because blocking the EGFR by a monoclonal antibody results in inhibition of the stimulation of the receptor, therefore, in inhibition of cell proliferation, enhanced apoptosis, and reduced angiogenesis, invasiveness and metastases. The study hypothesis is that neo-adjuvant Erbitux-based chemotherapy followed by surgery and radiotherapy for locally advanced oral/oropharyngeal cancer could benefit the patients on prognosis. The endpoints of this study are the pathological complete response after neo-adjuvant Erbitux-based chemotherapy followed by surgery and radiotherapy, the survival rate, and the safety.
BAY94-9343 was an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) directed against the cancer antigen mesothelin on tumor cells.
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is potential curative therapy for adult lymphoid malignancies. Based on our previous study, the condition with iv-busulfan (iv-BU) and cyclophosphamide (CTX) is feasible with low toxicity and transplantation mortality and long-term survival is comparable to most data reported with slightly higher relapse rate particularly for patients in CR2. In this study, the investigators aim to further improve the conditioning with Fludarabine + iv-BU and to use CTX after stem cell transfusion as consolidation for lymphoid malignancies and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis.
The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the recommended dose of BN80927 in patients with advanced malignant solid tumors.

This research trial studies deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples from younger patients with germ cell tumor and their parents or siblings. Studying samples of tumor tissue and saliva from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.
This protocol will evaluate microRNA biomarkers in blood and fine-needle aspirate biopsies (FNAB) of thyroid nodules. MicroRNA profiles will be determined and evaluated for their utility in pre-operative diagnosis, in particular to distinguish benign from malignant throid neoplasms. Post-surgical fresh-frozen thyroid cancer tissue will be assessed for somatic mutations, mRNA, and microRNA expression patterns. FFPE tissue will be used to obtain H&E and unstained slides to specific biomarker results using immunohistochemistry.
