Filter by:Patients with locally recurrent squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) after Chemotherapy and immunotherapy have a very poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Intratumoral chemotherapy (ITC) with cisplatin and epinephrine in order to increase the local cisplatin retention lead to a 50 % response rate in several studies but was given up due to the poor local tolerance with frequent necrosis of the peritumoral tissues. Gemcitabine, carboplatin and paclitaxel (GCP) are used in advanced SCCHN. These chemotherapies seem to be interesting options for intratumoral infusion: their different effect could lead to avoid chemotherapy resistance with a good tolerance profile, without tissue necrosis profile. The other major option for recurrent SCCHN is immunotherapy by Nivolumab, an anti PD-1 with a 13% mediane response rate. Nevertheless, the failure of this treatment stay unclear, but immunosuppressive action of the tumour is suspected. The presence of tumoral antigen could lead to better response to immunotherapy; association of chemotherapy and immunotherapy seems a promosing association to avoid treatment resistance as cytotoxic release tumoral antigen; it could also be associated to an abscopal effect. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of ITC using GCP in LOCAL recurrent SCCHN treated by nivolumab.
This study is a randomized, single-center, open-label, phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate non-small cell lung cancer that has failed to undergo excessive platinum-based chemotherapy and has not received excessive statin chemotherapy and has not received immunotherapy. The efficacy and safety of Nivolumab in combination with docetaxel and Nivolumab in patients. Qualified patients were stratified by histological type (squamous cell carcinoma vs. non-squamous cell carcinoma) randomized to receive the following regimen in a 1:1 ratio: Group A: Nivolumab 300mg + docetaxel 75mg/m2 IV q3w Group B: Nivolumab 200mg IV q2w All patients were evaluated for tumor at baseline, and tumor evaluations were performed every 6 weeks within 48 weeks after randomization (regardless of whether dosing was delayed). After the 48th week of assessment, a tumor assessment is required every 9 weeks until disease progression, withdrawal of informed consent, sponsor termination study, or patient death.
Our study sought to examine nivolumab efficacy and safety in advanced NSCLC patients treated under the Temporary Authorization for Use (ATU, compassionate use) setting and describe their long-term clinical characteristics, notably the treatments they received after nivolumab discontinuation. The profile of these patients shows greater conformity to that of a non-selected population, yet the clinical data collection does not reflect "real life" conditions and stops when treatment ends, which does not enable us to get an overview of post-immunotherapy treatments.
