Filter by:The incidence and mortality of esophageal cancer are at the forefront in China, among which the elderly patients account for a large proportion. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for inoperable locally advanced esophageal cancer. Most elderly patients with esophageal cancer cannot tolerate concurrent chemotherapy because of complications and other reasons. Immunotherapy has definite efficacy and low toxicity in advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and the results combined with radiotherapy have also been preliminarily reported. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy in elderly patients with esophageal cancer.
The main aim of this study is to check for side effects and tolerability of TAK-186 (also known as MVC-101) in adults with unremovable advanced or metastatic cancer. Another aim is to characterize and evaluate the activity of TAK-186 (MVC-101). Participants may receive treatment throughout the study for a maximum of 13 months and will be followed up at 30 days and 90 days and then every 12 weeks for up to 48 weeks after the last treatment.
The study will determine if calcipotriene and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) creams when combined can treat SCCIS and superficially invasive SCC (but not deeply invasive or high-risk cutaneous SCC). 30 Patients will be divided into a 7 day treatment group (n=10), a 14 day treatment group (n=10), and a placebo group (n=10, divided into 7 and 14 days evenly). Following treatment with the topical chemotherapeutic medication, tumors would be completely excised according to standard of care, and specimens would be sent to pathology to determine if there was residual tumor/margin clearance. The potential benefit of this intervention would be the establishment of a non-invasive treatment that leads to minimal to no scarring or complications (akin to topical 5-FU alone) but would require a much shorter and more tolerable treatment duration (1-2 weeks) compared to available alternatives.
A multicentre, open-label, non-randomized, phase Ib neoadjuvant study of intravenous NG-641, as monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab, in patients with surgically resectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of pepinemab in combination with pembrolizumab as first-line treatment and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus paclitaxel, cisplatin as neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery, and pembrolizumab as adjuvant therapy, compared with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and surgery for locally advanced ESCC in multicenter.
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy followed by surgery is the standard treatment for local advanced esophageal cancer (EC). It had been demonstrated that patients who achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant treatment had better prognosis. However, the pCR rate were about only 5-10% in neoadjuvant chemotherapy and 20-40% in neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy. PD-1 antibody based immunotherapy alone as second-line treatment or combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment had been proved that could prolong overall survival of EC patients. And a recent phase 3 clinical trial CheckMate 577 reported that, as adjuvant treatment, nivolumab could improve disease-free survival in EC and esophageal-gastric junction cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab, an anti-PD-1 antibody, combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin as neoadjuvant treatment in local advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We hope this combining treatment would increase the pCR rate of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and improve survival of patients, and at the menatime avoid the adverse events of neoadjuvant radiotherapy. This study will provide valuable information for further clinical trials of both Toripalimab and other immune checkpoint inhibition agents in treatment of esophageal cancer.
This is an open-label, parallel group, non-randomized, multicenter phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of spartalizumab (cohorts 1 and 2) and tislelizumab (cohort 3) in monotherapy in patients with PD1-high-expressing tumors.
This is a monocentric, non-randomized, prospective, in silico feasibility study conducted by Strasbourg Europe Cancerology Institute. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the optimisation of potential dental implant sites protection, without degrading tumor volume coverage, through designation of potential dental implant sites before volume delineation and dosimetry calculations in patients with oropharyngeal or oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma treated by radiotherapy.
TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist is an investigational drug being developed for treatment of locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. This Phase 1/2 study will evaluate TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist as monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab in dose escalation and dose expansion. Participants will receive intratumoral (IT) injection of TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist every cycle. The primary objectives are to evaluate safety and tolerability, and define the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist alone or in combination with pembrolizumab.
