Filter by:Adult patients suspected of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Unknown Primary (SCCUP) will be prospectively enrolled at a tertiary head & neck cancer center at Copenhagen University Hospital - Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark. All patients will undergo Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography-Computerized Tomography (PET-CT) prior to examination in general anesthesia. During general anesthesia, Intraoperative Transoral Ultrasound (ITUS) will be performed prior to panendoscopy. Detected tumors will be registered with specified oropharyngeal sub-locations. Blinded to ITUS, a consultant head & neck surgeon will perform panendoscopy. After examination, the surgeon is unblinded to ultrasound results. Final histopathology results from location-specified biopsies performed will be used as reference standard. The overall detection rate will be compared between ITUS, panendoscopy, PET-CT and MRI with sensitivity and specificity analysis. Oropharynx sub-location specific detection rate of ITUS vs. panendoscopy will be compared with logistic regression analysis.
This is a prospective single arm cohort study designed to evaluate the diagnostic ability of 68Ga-FAPI-PET/CT scan in determining likely tissue of origin in Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) patients not identified by standard of care. Patients with CUP will be either treatment naïve or starting second-line treatment.
This is a Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of sintilimab in subjects with CUP. Up to 45 subjects with CUP will be enrolled. Subjects will be treated with sintilimab at 200 mg via intravenous (IV) administration on Cycle 1 Day 1. The treatment will repeat every 3 weeks until progressive disease (PD), intolerable toxicity, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, withdrawal of consent, lost to follow-up, death, completion of therapy, or any other investigator-determined reasons for treatment discontinuation (whichever occurs first). Treatment will continue for a maximum period of 24 months (starting from the first dose). During the trial, tumor imaging evaluation will be initially performed once every 9 weeks (± 7 days) and will be based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. After the completion or discontinuation of the study treatment, safety follow-up and survival follow-up will be performed. Considering the rareness of the disease, the patient accrual rate is expected to be approximately 2 patients per month. The total study duration is expected to be between 24-27 months with 6-month follow up.
This open-label, First-into-Human (FIH) study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and early efficacy of AVA6000, a FAP-activated pro-drug of doxorubicin, in patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic solid tumours. In Phase Ia, using a 3+3 design, escalating doses of AVA6000 will be administered to patients with a range of solid tumour types to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase II dose (RP2D). In Phase 1b, the selected RP2D dose will be assessed in one to three tumour types.
This study is a prospective, real world study.The objective is to observe the diagnosis and first-line treatment of Chinese patients with cancer of unknown primary, and collect the clinicopathological characteristics, treatment outcomes, survival and other data of the patients.
Patients with Carcinoma of Unknown Primary (CUP) have widespread cancer at diagnosis however the specific site of origin cannot be found, despite significant testing, making it difficult to treat. CUP has a poor prognosis; it is the 6th most common cause of cancer death in the UK. To date there have been limited studies investigating molecular genomics in CUP patients, resulting in limited evidence to evaluate whether genomic profiling has added value over and above the standard diagnostics provided in the NHS. As a result, our project will aim to; - Assess genomic sequencing (both in tissue and blood) for the diagnosis and treatment guidance in CUP patients including a comparison of the effectiveness of tissue and blood based biomarkers - Collect evidence to further develop technology that predicts an individual's response to a treatment - Develop innovative systems of clinical data capture in patients with CUP - Investigate novel biomarkers to determine the primary tumour location Approximately 120-140 CUP patients will be recruited across 7 UK NHS sites. Tumour samples will be collected from patients undergoing a standard of care procedure OR medically fit patients with accessible tumour. Archival tumour may also be obtained. Some samples will be stored for future translational research. Sequencing results alongside clinical data will be discussed by a multi-disciplinary CUP Molecular Tumour Board. They will provide oversight on the nature, clinical significance and relevance of the results. They will inform the local CUP team of any "actionable" genetic changes, which could potentially direct selection of a targeted therapy trial for that patient. Sequential blood samples will be collected to investigate genetic characteristics that may be able to predict response to therapy. The aggregated anonymised data will be made publicly available following completion of this trial.
This open label, non-randomized, multi-center, pragmatic study aims to establish whether patients with rare tumors can benefit from matched molecular therapy as dictated by their next-generation sequencing (NGS) results.
This exploratory study investigates how an imaging technique called 68Ga-FAPi-46 PET/CT can determine where and to which degree the FAPI tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) accumulates in normal and cancer tissues in patients with cancer. Because some cancers take up 68Ga-FAPi-46 it can be seen with PET. FAP stands for Fibroblast Activation Protein. FAP is produced by cells that surround tumors (cancer associated fibroblasts). The function of FAP is not well understood but imaging studies have shown that FAP can be detected with FAPI PET/CT. Imaging FAP with FAPI PET/CT may in the future provide additional information about various cancers.
