Filter by:This is a 20 patient pilot study to examine the feasibility of dose-adapted radiation therapy for the treatment of locally advanced anal squamous cell cancer. The tumor and a patient's anatomy may change during radiation treatment and daily adaption of the radiation plan (i.e., a new daily plan based on the anatomy of the day) may help to maximize the dose to the tumor and minimize the radiation dose to the normal surrounding organs.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether lattice radiation therapy (LRT) is an effective radiation therapy technique when compared to standard stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The study will also study how the different radiation therapy techniques (LRT and SBRT) affect how many immune cells are able to attack and kill tumor cells (immune infiltration).
This is a study involving exome sequencing and immune profiling of matched tissue and blood samples from patients with both high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and anal squamous cell carcinoma. This is a collaborative project between Imperial College London and the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR), investigating the genetic predeterminants for the progression of anal HSIL to SCC as well as the immunogenetic profile of these conditions will be beneficial for risk stratification (with respect to identifying those individuals with anal HSIL most likely to progress to invasive disease), the identification of potential new drug targets and will add to our understanding of how the tumour microenvironment may influence treatment response and disease recurrence of both anal HSIL and SCC.
Chemoradiotherapy has been a standard modality for inoperable locally advance esophageal carcinoma. The goal of this randomized control study is to compare the feasibility, and survival benefits of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs for local advanced patients with inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: • If the feasibility and safety of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is better. • If the survival benefits (1, 2 and 3-years progression free survival) of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is longer. The Experimental group will receive a combination immunonutrition of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutamine, whereas the control group will receive standard formula.
For patients with locally advanced head and neck tumors who are over 70 years old, have PS>2, have hearing impairment, renal dysfunction, or have neuropathy greater than grade 1 that is intolerant to cisplatin, radiotherapy alone or combined with EGFR monoclonal antibody radiotherapy should be chosen. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superior efficacy of Nitozumab and Sinilimab when added to radiotherapy in the treatment of high-risk participants with resected locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (LA SCCHN) who are ineligible to receive cisplatin-based chemoradiation concurrently.
The PRINCESS study is a hypothesis-generating, interventional, open-label, non pharmacological trial designed to characterize the translational and clinical implications of the regular assumptions of inulin on Gut Microbiota, circulating cytokines and immune cells dynamics during ICIs +/- chemotherapy on patients affected by R/M HNSCC.
The goal of this clinical trial is to find if levels of a protein called AXL in tumor cells relate to how tumors respond to cetuximab (CTX) combined with imatinib in participants with head and neck cancer. This interventional study will occur in the time between diagnosis of your cancer and surgery to remove your tumor or radiation or chemoradiation treatment of your primary cancer. Participants will undergo a research blood draw and a research biopsy as part of the screening process, and will be in this research study for approximately 13 to 16 months.
The researchers think that a blood test (NavDx®) may be able to identify cancer early by looking for circulating DNA from Human Papillomavirus/HPV. Circulating DNA are small pieces of genes that are released into the bloodstream. The purpose of this study is to find out whether using this blood test to test for HPV DNA will help detect HPV-related Oropharyngeal Cancer/OPC.
The RESCUE study is a combined retrospective and prospective multicentre cohort study investigating the survival and functional outcomes in patients undergoing salvage surgery for recurrent, residual, and new primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Additionally, the RESCUE study will contain an exploratory molecular analysis of consenting patients to assess the relationship between cancer genomics, previous radiotherapy, and recurrence in head and neck cancer.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the survival benefit of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 immunotherapy plus TP chemotherapy compared with TP chemotherapy or up-front surgery in resectable locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma.
