Filter by:On the basis of previous retrospective studies, the Task Force will further optimize the CTCs longitudinal surveillance model and initially validate the subclonal origin (CTC-DNA) of recurrent/metastatic foci derived from CTCs at the molecular level in hepatocellular carcinoma, prospective clinical trials will be conducted to further validate the predictive value of the CTCS longitudinal monitoring model in predicting postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma, and to verify whether it is earlier than imaging to indicate recurrence, to explore the clinical feasibility of CTCs in guiding postoperative adjuvant therapy of liver cancer, and to provide new ideas for early intervention strategy of liver cancer after operation, to establish a set of standardized clinical scheme of auxiliary treatment for patients with liver cancer after operation for accurate and individualized"Early diagnosis and treatment".
For inoperable small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an effective and safe local treatment. Despite satisfactory local control rate, the incidence of recurrence out the field remains substantial, with 2-year PFS of 31.9% to 60.9%. Therefore, a more effective treatment mode is urgently needed. Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1/PD-L1 have shown substantial clinical benefits in advanced HCC as well as resected high-risk HCC. Recently, the combination of immunotherapy with SBRT has shown promising activity in HCC, but its utility in small HCC is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of SBRT followed by sintilimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) in patients with recurrent or residual small HCC.
The purpose of this study is to determine the MTD of WGI-0301 in combination with Sorafenib for advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and assess its safety and efficacy in adults with advanced unresectable HCC who have previously received PD-1 / PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors.
The goal of this prospective clinical trial is to determine if HPV-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma that is non-hypoxic on FMISO PET can be successfully treated with a lower dose of radiation therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the pathologic complete response rate in patients selected for radiation dose de-escalation and neck dissection? 2. What is the correlation between MRI and FMISO PET assessment of hypoxia before and during RT? 3. What are the acute and late toxicities in patients selected for radiation dose de-escalation? 4. What are the quality of life scores in patients selected for radiation dose de-escalation? 5. What are the local, regional and distant failure rates of patients selected for radiation dose de-escalation? Patients with cT1-2N1-2b (AJCC 7th edition) oropharyngeal tumours will undergo surgical resection of the primary tumour. Following this, they will be allocated to standard radiation therapy (70Gy with concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy) or de-escalation radiation therapy (30Gy with concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy) based on the results of FMISO PET. Patients with non-hypoxic tumours at baseline OR after two weeks of radiation therapy will be allocated to the de-escalated group. 3-4 months after completion of radiation therapy, all patients in the de-escalated group will undergo mandatory neck dissection to assess pathologic response. Researchers will assess the pathologic response rate after surgery in the de-escalation group. They will also compare the outcomes (oncological outcomes and quality of life) between the group receiving the standard treatment (70Gy) and the group receiving de-escalated radiation therapy (30Gy).
This is a single-arm, monocentric, phase II trial, enrolling patients with histological diagnosis of collecting duct carcinoma and renal medullary carcinoma with locally advanced or metastatic disease who will be treated with Pembrolizumab plus Enfortumab Vedotin. Approximately, 23 patients will be enrolled. At screening, pre-existing archival primary and metastatic FFPE tumor specimen will be collected and submitted for central pathology review and translational analysis. All participants will undergo baseline screening imaging for clinical staging. Patients will be treated with Pembrolizumab q21 plus Enfortumab Vedotin 1,8q21 for 3 cycles (3 infusion of Pembrolizumab and 6 infusion of Enfortumab Vedotin) then radiological imaging will be repeated and patients with SD, PR or CR will continue pembrolizumab until disease progression, unacceptable toxicities or completion of treatment (17 cycles). Patients with progressive disease after 3 cycles of study intervention will be treated as per clinical practice. Patients who will experience progressive disease during pembrolizumab monotherapy treatment could restart Enfortumab Vedotin. The study will also involve collection of a blood sample taken at the commencement of treatment, at the first cycle, after cycle 3 and at the end of treatment or progression of disease, to be used for research purposes.
Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of adding rituximab after failure of target immunotherapy in the Posterior treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma
This is a phase Ib/II, dose escalation and dose expansion study of valemetostat (DS-3201) with atezolizumab and bevacizumab in patients advanced Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who did not receive prior systemic therapy for advanced HCC.
Despite improvements in treatments, head and neck cancer survivors (HNCS) still endure acute and chronic side effects such as loss of muscular strength, limitations in physical functioning, fatigue, and swallowing difficulties that impact quality of life (QoL) and limit return to work. Light-to-moderate intensity strength training (LMST) has been shown to improve some side effects. Heavy lifting strength training (HLST) may further improve outcomes in some populations, however, only one small pilot study has focused on HNCS. The LIFTING 2 trial will be the first to examine the feasibility and effects of a HLST program versus no exercise in HNCS.
The goal of this study is to test neoadjuvant therapy with the dual inhibition of Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) immune checkpoint pathways in a cohort of treatment-naïve, resectable stage II to IV cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma on the pathological response rate (pCR) and recurrence-free survival.
To learn if evolocumab and nivolumab can control metastatic and refractory renal cell carcinoma. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
