Filter by:This is a single-arm, open, II phase study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Nivolumab + carboplatin + paclitaxel in 25 newly diagnosed patients with primary tracheal squamous cell carcinoma.
In this prospective cohort study, investigators will conduct ultrasound surveillance of the nodal basins of patients with head and neck cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) whose tumors are considered high risk and staged by the Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) tumor staging system. The study will enroll patients with tumors staged T2a and who are also immunosuppressed (from solid organ transplant, hematologic malignancy or autoimmune disease), T2b (sentinel lymph node negative), and T3 (sentinel lymph node negative). After two years of surveillance, outcomes regarding local recurrence, nodal metastasis, disease specific death, and overall survival will be compared with historical controls with the overall hypothesis that ultrasound surveillance will detect subclinical disease earlier and help improve outcomes.
As patients live longer after receiving an organ transplant, there is a need to reduce the long-term side effects of the drugs used to prevent organ rejection. In particular, long-term use of these drugs increases the risk of skin cancer. Skin cancer is now a leading cause of illness and disfigurement after kidney, liver, heart, and lung transplantation. Given the increased risk and burden of skin cancer in transplant recipients, prevention is critical. Nicotinamide is a form of Vitamin B3 that has been shown to protect against skin cancer in the general population. However, it is unclear whether nicotinamide is effective among immune-suppressed transplant recipients. Investigators will conduct a clinical trial involving multiple transplant centres in Canada to evaluate whether oral nicotinamide (500 mg twice daily) is effective and safe for preventing skin cancer. Investigators will recruit 396 high-risk adult kidney, liver, heart, and lung transplant patients who have previously had at least one skin cancer. Patients will receive nicotinamide or sham tablets for up to 4 years. The results will inform efforts to improve the long-term health of transplant recipients.
This is a single-arm clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cadonilimab in combination with preoperative chemotherapy for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This phase I trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of using two imaging techniques, indium In 111 panitumumab (111In-panitumumab) with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) and panitumumab-IRDye800 fluorescence imaging during surgery (intraoperative), to detect disease in patients with head and neck cancer. 111In-panitumumab is an imaging agent made of a monoclonal antibody that has been labeled with a radioactive molecule called indium In 111. The agent targets and binds to receptors on tumor cells. This allows the cells to be visualized and assessed with SPECT/CT imaging techniques. SPECT is special type of CT scan in which a small amount of a radioactive drug is injected into a vein and a scanner is used to make detailed images of areas inside the body where the radioactive material is taken up by the cells. CT is an imaging technique for examining structures within the body by scanning them with x-rays and using a computer to construct a series of cross-sectional scans along a single axis. Panitumumab-IRDye800 is an imaging agent composed of panitumumab, a monoclonal antibody, linked to a fluorescent dye called IRDye800. Upon administration, panitumumab-IRDye800 targets and binds to receptors on tumor cells. This allows the tumor cells to be detected using fluorescence imaging during surgery. Adding 111In-panitumumab SPECT/CT imaging to intraoperative panitumumab-IRDye800 fluorescence imaging may be more effective at detecting disease in patients with head and neck cancer.
This is a nonrandomized, uncontrolled, open-label, multicenter Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of futibatinib in combination with PD-1 antibody-based SoC therapy in adult patients with solid tumors.

To evaluate the benefit of SI-B001+ Docetaxel over Docetaxel's progression-free survival (PFS) based assessment. Secondary objectives: To evaluate the investigator-evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) benefit of SI-B001+ Docetaxel against docetaxel; To evaluate the difference of objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and duration of response (DOR) between SI-B001+ docetaxel and bidocetaxel. To evaluate the type, frequency and severity of adverse events (TEAE) and drug-related adverse events (TRAE) during treatment with SI-B001+ docetaxel in comparison with docetaxel. The pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of SI-B001 will be evaluated. The immunogenicity of SI-B001 will be evaluated. Subject quality of life.
In this study, 100 patients with resectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (oral squamous cell carcinoma and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma) were enrolled, who were combined with tirelizumab, carboplatin and albumin-binding paclitaxel before and after surgery. Tumor tissues and paracancer tissues of patients were collected to observe the imaging and pathological changes before and after treatment. At the same time, clinical information of patients, such as pathological grade, stage, treatment, prognosis, serology, imaging, etc. were collected to evaluate the safety and feasibility of tirelizumab combined with carboplatin and albumin-binding paclitaxel for neoadjuvant therapy of resectable oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. This is a prospective, one-arm, phase II clinical study. Purpose Main purpose The efficacy of Tirelizumab combined with carboplatin and albumin-paclitaxel in neoadjuvant therapy for resectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma was evaluated by calculating the major pathological response (MPR) rates in the experimental group. The severity of adverse events associated with neoadjuvant therapy will be graded according to NCI CTCAE (version 5.0) during the course of this study and during follow-up, the incidence of adverse events in the experimental and control groups will be compared, and the safety of neoadjuvant therapy with Tirelizumab combined with carboplatin and albumin-paclitaxel in resectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma will be evaluated. Secondary Purpose 1. One-year event survival rate and event-free survival (EFS) of enrolled patients were evaluated (five years); 2. Pathological complete response rate (pCR) of enrolled patients was evaluated (5 years); 3. pTR of enrolled patients was evaluated; 4. Overall survival (OS) of enrolled patients was evaluated (5 years); 5. Radiological response of enrolled patients was assessed; 6. The rate of operation delay of enrolled patients was evaluated;
Randomized comparative trial of a 30% solution of ascorbic acid in 95% dimethylsulfoxide applied topically twice a day for 8 weeks vs 5% imiquimod cream in the treatment of biopsy proven squamous cell carcinomas of the skin in otherwise healthy adult patients. Outcome measure was biopsy proven resolution of the carcinoma.
Cancer of the oral mucosa, also known as oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), occurs as an ulceroproliferative lesion that can develop at any site in the mouth, from the lips to oropharynx. OSCC (Oral squamous cell carcinoma) is a biologically aggressive tumor and this has piqued interest in research into several prognostic histopathological indicators during the past few decades. The AJCC 8th edition TNM staging system incorporates histopathological factors including depth of invasion (DOI) that affect patient outcomes. Numerous studies have linked a poor prognosis and increased locoregional failure with certain "patterns of invasion" (POI) in OSCC. However, this factor is not utilized for treatment decision making and for outcome assessment. The management and prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) depends on tumor stage, differentiation, perineural and lymphovascular invasion, depth of invasion, margin status, lymph node (LN) metastasis and extranodal extension. We will evaluate the relationship of these histopathological parameters with cohesive and non cohesive worst patterns of invasion (WPOI) in OSCC. The purpose of this cross-sectional study is to determine that presence of non-cohesive WPOI is associated with advanced T stage, poor differentiation, PNI, greater depth of invasion, and higher chances of nodal metastasis. WPOI is associated with poor DFS (disease free survival), treatment intensification in early stage disease with non-cohesive WPOI may improve survival. Therefore, it should also be included in routine reporting protocol for OSCC to aid in describing the aggressive behaviour of disease.
