Filter by: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.
Triple-negative breast carcinoma is characterized by the absence of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and HER2/neu receptors. Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a tumor-associated cell surface glycoprotein that is involved in adaptation to hypoxia-induced acidosis and plays a role in cancer progression. This study aimed to investigate CA IX expression in TNBC and its relationship with treatment effect.
This study is evaluating INCB081776 when given in combination with the checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab and palliative radiation therapy in patients with metastatic or recurrent metastatic or recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). 12 participants will be enrolled and can expect to be on study for up to 12 months.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well fluorescence image guided surgery followed by intraoperative photodynamic therapy for improving local tumor control in patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Fluorescence image guided surgery uses a drug named aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride. Aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride is a photosensitizing agent, meaning that is activated by light and, is converted to another drug in cancer cells more than in normal cells. The converted drug emits fluorescence red light when activated with low power blue light. It is used to assist the surgeon to see cancer cells and small cancerous tissue that may have been missed during routine surgery. In addition to emitting fluorescence light, the converted drug in the cancer cells and tissue can be activated with red laser light to kill cancer cells. This procedure is called photodynamic therapy (PDT). Performing fluorescence image guided surgery followed by intraoperative photodynamic therapy after the surgical removal of the colorectal tumor before the surgical site will be closed may be effective and improve outcomes in patients with locally advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to compare V940 plus pembrolizumab to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to disease-free survival (DFS) as assessed by the investigator. The primary hypothesis is that V940 plus pembrolizumab is superior to placebo plus pembrolizumab with respect to DFS.
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).
The response rate of HNSCC to immune checkpoint blockade was not satisfied. Improving the mPR rate of neoadjuvant immunotherapy through the combination with other treatment methods is an important way to further improve the prognosis of such patients. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of PD-1 monoclonal antibody with neoadjvant SBRT and chemotherapy. The triple mode not only can Increase the effectiveness of neoadjuvant therapy,meanwhile,the in situ tumor vaccine inoculation effect generated by enhancing the release of specific antigens after tumor radiotherapy with PD-1 monoclonal antibody achieves a sustained anti-tumor immune effect throughout the body, reducing postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The triple mode has important exploratory value in achieving high quality and long-term survival for patients, and may provides a more efficient mode for locally advanced HNSCC.
This phase I trial tests the change in androgen receptor sensitivity, side effects and effectiveness of bipolar androgen therapy, using testosterone, in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer that has spread to other places is the body (metastatic). Bipolar androgen therapy is the regulation of testosterone between castration levels (lower than what would be normally present) and supraphysiological levels (amounts greater than normally found in the body). This may suppress cancer cell growth, which reduces prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and may delay cancer progression.
Aim: to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic value of preoperative ECOG-PS scores and ASA scores in patients undergoing radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for upper tract urothelial carcinoma. Methods: multicentered cohort study
This study is a registered phase Ill, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BL-B01D1 in patients with recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after failure of PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy.
