Filter by:This study is the first clinical study in PD-1 resistant patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with drugs targeting EGFR signaling pathway combined with CDK4/6 inhibitors, which explores the new combination therapies urgently needed in clinical practice and lays a foundation for subsequent studies, with important scientific research significance and clinical value.
This is a single-arm, phase II study to establish the safety of reducing radiation dose in selected p16+ OPSCC patients receiving adjuvant radiation after TORS and neck dissection. This protocol also allows for sparing of the primary resection bed, in appropriate patients, as previously published by our group and found to be safe and effective.
This study is an open-label, multi-arm, parallel cohort, dose validation and expansion design. The study is modular in design, allowing evaluation of the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of NUC-3373 in combination with other agents for the treatment of patients with different tumour types. Each module is designed to evaluate a different NUC-3373 combination and consists of a dose-validation phase (Phase Ib) and a dose-expansion phase (Phase II). Phase Ib of each module will determine the safety and tolerability of the combinations for further clinical evaluation in Phase II. Approximately 6-20 evaluable patients will be enrolled in the Phase Ib stage of each module to determine safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of NUC-3373 in combination with other agents. Each module will then move into Phase II to enable a further assessment of safety and efficacy in approximately 20-40 patients. Module 1 will assess NUC-3373 + leucovorin (LV) in combination with pembrolizumab for the treatment of patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumours who have progressed on ≤2 prior therapies for metastatic disease, that may have included 1 prior immunotherapy-containing regimen (either monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy) or who have not progressed but where addition of NUC-3373 + LV to standard pembrolizumab monotherapy may be appropriate (e.g., patients who could not tolerate post- immuno-oncology (IO) standard of care therapy). Module 2 will assess NUC-3373 + LV in combination with docetaxel for the treatment of patients with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or pleural mesothelioma who have progressed on, or were unable to tolerate, 1 or 2 prior lines of cytotoxic chemotherapy-containing regimens for advanced/metastatic disease. The opening of each module will be at the discretion of the Sponsor. Further modules may be added as non-clinical and clinical data become available to support additional NUC-3373 combinations and tumour types.
PET/CT follow up for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma The following is a presentation of a prospective protocol, named PET/CT follow up for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (PET Follow), including patients who have completed radiotherapy treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic performance of 18F-fluorodeoxy-D-glucose (FDG) Positron Emission Tomography/ Computed Tomography (PET/CT) in patients with HNSCC after curative intended treatment.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about survival and prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgical treatment for primary squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule. The main questions it aims to answer are: - what is the prognosis of patients affected by squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule? - are there any specific factors that could influence prognosis? - is it possible to elaborate a new staging system, able to overcome the limitations of the currently used ones? Data about patients, tumour and type of surgery performed will be collected. Participants will be followed-up for a minimum 6 months period after surgery.
Background: Fanconi anemia (FA) is an inherited disorder. People with FA are more likely to get certain cancers, especially squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). These cancers usually appear first in the mouth, esophagus, and genital and anal areas. Early detection of SCCs may help improve survival rates for people with FA. Objective: This natural history study will regularly screen people with FA for SCC. Eligibility: People aged 12 years and older with FA or a prior cancer diagnosis. Children aged 8 to 11 years with FA may also be eligible. Design: Participants will receive a comprehensive screening for cancer or early signs of cancer. Participants will have a physical exam. They will provide blood and saliva samples. Cells will be collected by rubbing a swab on the inside of the cheeks. A skin sample may be removed from the back, buttocks, or inside of the upper arm. Participants will have pictures taken of their mouth. Any mouth sores will be mapped. Cells will be collected from the sores with a small brush. Specialists will examine the participant s ears, nose, throat, teeth, and skin. Adult participants may have a gastrointestinal exam or pelvic exam. Participants may have an endoscopy. A long tube with a camera and a light will be inserted through the mouth and down into the stomach. Participants may have a liver ultrasound. A wand will be pressed against their belly to get pictures of the organs inside the body. Participants will have screenings every year for up to 10 years. Each visit will last up to 3 days. They will have remote follow-up visits every 6 - 8 months....
This is a phase II clinical trial to assess the clinical activity of immunotherapy with E7 TCR-T cells for metastatic HPV-associated cancers. HPV-associated cancers in include cervical, throat, penile, vulvar, vaginal, anal, and other cancers. Participants will receive a conditioning regimen, E7 TCR-T cells, and aldesleukin. Clinical response to treatment will be determined.
To learn if treatment with tiragolumab and atezolizumab before and after standard of care surgery and chemoradiation (radiation therapy with or without cisplatin/carboplatin) can help to control OCSCC that is PD-L1 CPS positive.
NRF2 activation, observed in up to 40% of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tumors, plays a critical role in tumor progression, metastasis, and radiation therapy resistance. The investigators have recently discovered that pyrimethamine (PYR) and its analogs have an inhibitory effect on NRF2 activity in vitro and in mouse models via inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). Pyrimethamine is an established drug that has been used for decades for treatment of protozoan infections and malaria. A growing body of research shows that it has potential antitumor activity, however its activity on growing human tumors has not been previously studied. The primary efficacy goal of this study is to evaluate the activity of pyrimethamine on human tumors as demonstrated by inhibition of DHFR and downregulation of NRF2 pathway activity. On-target inhibition of DHFR by pyrimethamine results in the stabilization and increased protein expression of human DHFR. The primary efficacy hypothesis of this study is that treatment with pyrimethamine will result in a 50% increase in DHFR protein within the tumor cells as measured by quantitative western blot analysis. Secondarily, among those tumors classified as NRF2-active on pre-treatment biopsy, the investigators hypothesize there will be a 50% reduction in NRF2 activity as measured by SureQuant targeted proteomic analysis.
This study is a Phase 1b open-label study designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of WU-NK-101 in combination with cetuximab in patients with advanced and/or metastatic CRC (Cohort 1), and in patients with advanced and/or metastatic SCCHN (Cohort 2). The overall study will be comprised of two phases, a Dose Escalation Phase, and a Cohort Expansion Phase.
