Filter by:This is an open-label study designed to evaluate safety and efficacy of enoblituzumab in combination with MGA012 or MGD013 in first-line treatment of patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).
CX1106 is a novel inhibitor of thymidylate synthase (TS) developed as a potential antitumor agent by virtue of the rate limiting role of TS in the biosynthesis of thymidine. CX1106 differs from other TS inhibitors such as pemetrexed, raltitrexed, CB3717, and fluorouracil in that it does not require active transport for uptake into cells. CX1106 also lacks a glutamate moiety and thus does not require polyglutamation for antitumor activity. More than 1000 patients with various malignancies have been treated with CX1106 to date in previous various clinical trials. The investigators suggest a study of CX1106 in patients with recurrent or metastatic HNSCC who are resistant or ineligible/intolerant to platinum-based chemotherapy. The aim of current trial is to evaluate the antitumor efficacy and safety profile of CX1106.
This research is studying the safety and effectiveness of AMD3100 and pembrolizumab in participants with metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
This phase III trial studies nutritional supplementation with Impact Advanced Recovery to see how well it works compared with standard nutritional supplementation in reducing complications in patients with esophageal cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) who are undergoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or surgery. Impact Advanced Recovery may help to reduce the number of surgical complications, reduce toxicity, improve nutritional status before surgery, and reduce morbidity after surgery in patients with esophageal cancer.
This is a retrospective study in patients with cancer of the oral cavity, pharynx, and larynx. Imaging exams of these patients will be analyzed with the objective of developing and validating a clinically applicable method for evaluation of cachexia and/or sarcopenia in a patient with head and neck cancer from musculature imaging of the neck. Indeed, the prognostic influence of body composition will be evaluated.
This trial studies information from a home sleep apnea machine to evaluate obstructive sleep apnea in patients with stage III-IV head and neck cancer. Sleep apnea (trouble breathing during sleep) can occur in head and neck cancer patients who have swelling in their neck. Wearing a sleep apnea machine overnight may help doctors evaluate obstructive sleep apnea in patients with head and neck cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well standard chemotherapy and radiation therapy given with or without paclitaxel and carboplatin work in treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive women with cervical cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, paclitaxel, and carboplatin work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells. They may either kill the cancer cells by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy to the pelvis destroys potential cancer cells in the pelvic area and significantly reduces the risk of tumor recurrence in the pelvic area. It is not yet known if giving chemotherapy and radiation therapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin afterward may work better than than just chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating HIV-positive patients with advanced cervical cancer.
This is a Phase 1b open-label dose escalation trial of Ad/MG1-MAGEA3 and Pembrolizumab in patients with Metastatic Melanoma or Cutaneous Squamous Cell Skin Cancer that has failed prior standard of care treatments. Upon determination of a Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or Maximum Feasible Dose (MFD) the study will be expanded into up to 24 additional Metastatic Melanoma patients.
This phase I/Ib trial will assess the dose, safety and side effects of the combination of the cancer drugs afatinib (GILOTRIF®) and nivolumab (OPDIVO®) and to assess the anti-cancer effects of this combination of drugs when used to treat patients with advanced head and neck cancers that did not respond to previous treatments.
This pilot trial studies how well interim digital positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) works in predicting outcomes in participants with oropharyngeal cancer that has spread from its original site of growth to nearby tissues or lymph nodes who are undergoing chemoradiation therapy. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT may help measure a participant's response to treatment.
