Filter by:This trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter, phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab as consolidation therapy in elderly patients with esophageal cancer who did not progress after concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Patients aged 70-85 years with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who did not progress after concurrent chemoradiotherapy and meet the inclusion criteria will be stratified according to MRD status (positive vs negative) and randomized in a 1:1 ratio into two groups: the treatment group receiving sintilimab (for patients with a weight <60 kg: 3 mg/kg IV on Day 1 every 3 weeks; for patients with a weight ≥60 kg: 200 mg IV on Day 1 every 3 weeks) and the observation group receiving regular follow-up. Patients should receive the first dose within 42 days after completing the last radiotherapy session and continue treatment until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, loss to follow-up, death, or other circumstances where the investigator determines treatment should be discontinued, whichever occurs first. The maximum duration of sintilimab treatment is 12 months (from the start of treatment), while the observation group will be followed up every 3 months for at least one year. No other anti-tumor treatments are allowed during the study period. The study aims to compare the effects of the two treatment modalities on progression-free survival, overall survival, tumor response, toxicity reactions, and quality of life in elderly patients with esophageal cancer.
Patients diagnosed with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who failed to induction chemo(immuno)therapy had poor prognosis. Radiotherpy was an important and effective treatment in treating ESCC. The present study is a one-arm trial that seeks to evaluate the efficacy in patients with unresectable ESCC. The study objectives include R0 resection rate, complete pathological response and treatment toxicity, etc. Nimotuzumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against EGFR. Its efficacy and safety in patients with esophageal cancer have been confirmed by many studies. The current prospective phase II study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination regimen comprising chemotherapy with nimotuzumab and S-1 and concurrent radiotherapy for patients who are not sensitive to induction chemo(immuno)therapy.
Cervical cancer constitutes a significant health burden for women globally. While most patients with early-stage disease can be cured with radical surgery or chemoradiotherapy, patients with high-risk locally advanced disease or with recurrent/metastatic disease have a poor prognosis with standard treatments. Immunotherapies are a rational treatment for this HPV-driven cancer that commonly expresses programmed cell death ligand-1. Toripalimab, a humanized immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody against PD-1, showed promising anti-tumor efficacy in multiple solid tumors. This randomised study is evaluating toripalimab combined with CCRT versus CCRT alone for treatment-naïve LACC.
The study investigates the impact of nutritional status on the clinical outcomes of cancer patients in Shaanxi Province undergoing chemoradiotherapy. It focuses on understanding how diet and nutrition affect the effectiveness and side effects of cancer treatments.
Esophageal cancer accounts for more than half of the world, seriously affecting people's health in China. 95% patients are squamous cell carcinoma. Surgery is the preferred treatment for early and middle stage esophageal cancer, but patients with clinical stage T4b or other surgical contraindications have no surgical opportunity. In recent years, radical chemoradiotherapy has played a key role in the treatment of local advanced esophageal cancer with some poor predicting biomarkers. Oral bacteria may play a pathogenic role in cancer and other chronic diseases by producing chemical carcinogens and inflammatory factors through direct metabolism. A large number of studies have also suggested that tooth loss and poor oral hygiene are closely related to upper digestive tract cancer, indicating the possible role of oral microorganisms in the occurrence and development of upper digestive tract cancer, and saliva is the main source of oral flora colonization. Therefore, it is worth further research to explore the interaction between microbial metabolism imbalance and radiotherapy in patients with esophageal cancer. In summary, we intend to conduct a prospective cohort study to explore the role of salivary microbes in radiotherapy in patients with initially inoperable patients with local advanced esophageal cancer.
Tislelizumab combined with chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of recurrent/ metastasis cervical cancer: a single arm,single center， phase ii and observational clinical study
Chemoradiotherapy has been a standard modality for inoperable locally advance esophageal carcinoma. The goal of this randomized control study is to compare the feasibility, and survival benefits of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs for local advanced patients with inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: • If the feasibility and safety of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is better. • If the survival benefits (1, 2 and 3-years progression free survival) of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is longer. The Experimental group will receive a combination immunonutrition of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutamine, whereas the control group will receive standard formula.
This study carried out a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical study under the background of intensity-modulated radiation therapy and three-dimensional afterloading therapy. By comparing simultaneous intensity-modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy combined with adjuvant chemotherapy and simultaneous intensity-modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy alone, based on the 2018 FIGO staging The clinical efficacy of locally advanced cervical cancer further clarifies the role of adjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer.
For patients with irresectable locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (e.g. multilevel or bulky N2 disease or presence of N3 lymph node metastases), current guidelines recommend treatment with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI, durvalumab). Chances of sterilization of a large (e.g. clinically staged T3 or T4 tumor) tumor volume by CRT alone are relatively small and these tumors are associated with a high local recurrence rate. Moreover, necrosis and cavitation of these tumors puts these patients at risk of fatal bleeding and might cause infectious complications, which lead to subsequent impaired quality of life (QoL) and to interruption of, or the need for postponing, (systemic) treatment. Upfront resection of the tumor in the lung, followed by postoperative CRT in patients who have a (potentially) resectable tumor could be a strategy to prevent complications of CRT in large volume and/or cavitating tumors with extensive mediastinal disease.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the clinical efficacy of San-Zhong-Kui-Jian-Tang (SZKJT), a formula of Chinese medicine in head and neck cancer patients receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can SZKJT improve the completion rate of CCRT? - Can SZKJT reduce the adverse effects of CCRT? - How SZKJT affect the quality of life in the patients receiving CCRT - How about the safety of using SZKJT in the patients receiving CCRT Participants will be asked to: - take SZKJT for 9 weeks during the whole CCRT course - take questionnaires of quality of life
