Filter by:This is a prospective registry study based on a standard therapy concept for postoperative simultaneous radiochemotherapy established in Erlangen and elsewhere. The efficacy and tolerability of simultaneous postoperative radiochemotherapy is being investigated. Patients with locally advanced high-grade salivary gland carcinoma after oncological resection are admitted.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rezvilutamide in combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in participants with androgen receptor (AR) positive, high-risk salivary duct carcinoma (SDC). The procedures include screening, treatment and follow-up period. The treatment includes rezvilutamide plus Luteinizing Hormone Releasing Hormone agonist (LHRHa) for up to 2 years.
Patients with salivary gland carcinoma were divided into groups according to HER2, NTRK, AR, TROP-2, etc. Patients in different groups were given precision targeted therapy or chemotherapy to evaluate the efficacy (ORR rate, etc.) and safety of precision neoadjuvant or conversion therapy.
The INDAGA-UK trial is a retrospective, multi-centre observational study in participants with locally advanced and recurrent salivary gland to investigate t its molecular profiling, and to explore new prognostic and druggable markers. We will analyse samples and data from patients diagnosed with salivary gland cancer from 2013 - 2023. Subject and sample identification will occur over a 12-month period. Samples and data will be analysed over the next 12 months prior to study end.
Aims of this study are analyses of tumor metabolome, tumor transcriptome and tumor proteome as well as of the immune infiltration, separated by histological entity. These data will subsequently be compared with the with the detailed immune status determined in the patient's peripheral blood and saliva using machine learning techniques, among others, to create a biomarker cluster for salivary gland tumors. These can be used in clinical routine. In addition, the investigators would like to study a subset of patients from freshly resected tumor organoids from freshly resected tumor tissue according to already established methods in order to mechanistic investigations of prognostic parameters.
Tumors of the salivary glands occupy 0.5-1.2% of cases of head and neck tumors. They are primarily a surgical disease, as their treatment is basically the surgical excision. In this direction and in the context of the differential preoperative diagnosis, in addition to the imaging methods, the fine needle biopsy (FNA) was used, with which cell material is aspirated from the tumor and studied under the microscope. Although an increasing number of papers have been published in the international scientific literature over the last 5 years on the diagnostic accuracy of FNA in salivary glands, many of them are unable to quantify and omit to refer information that could affect the estimated diagnostic accuracy. Such information is for instance the clinical experience of the doctor who performs the FNA and of the one who assess the smear. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of fine needle biopsy in adult patients with salivary gland tumor that underwent a surgical excision in two Oral and Maxillofacial Departments in Northern Greece. The present retrospective study was carried out from 2/2021 to 4/2022 by collecting data from the files of patients who underwent surgery at the Oral and Maxillofacial Clinic of the Theageneio Cancer Hospital of Thessaloniki 1996-2022 and the General Hospital of Thessaloniki G. Papanikolaou 2015-2022. The study was conducted according to the STARD 2015 protocol. FNA contributed significantly to the differential preoperative process in salivary gland diseases. The differential diagnosis of a lesion in benign / malignant preoperatively, with the use of FNA, enables the surgeon for a more beneficial to the patient and oncologically safer planning of the surgery. It is considered important the high sensitivity provided by the examination, as it helps to exclude with sufficient safety the possible malignancy of the tumor located in the salivary gland of the patient.
This is a single-center, open-label, phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of target therapy for patients with relapsed/metastastic salivary gland carcinoma based on molecular typing.
(1) To apply Bayesian statistics to screen for the most effective treatment regimen containing recombinant humanized anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody-MMAE coupling agent vedicitumomab (Edisil, RC48) for locally advanced or metastatic salivary gland ductal carcinoma expressing HER2 in the near future. (2) To explore biomarkers relevant to the efficacy of recombinant humanized anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody-MMAE-coupled vedicitumomab (Edisil, RC48) in the treatment of HER2-expressing locally advanced or metastatic salivary gland ductal carcinoma.
To learn if sacituzumab govitecan can help to control salivary gland cancer.
This clinical trial is looking at a combination of drugs called trastuzumab and pertuzumab. This combination of drugs is approved as standard of care treatment for adult patients with metastatic breast cancer. This means it has gone through clinical trials and been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the UK. Trastuzumab and pertuzumab work in patients with these types of cancers which have a molecular alteration called HER2 amplification or HER2 activating mutation. Investigators now wish to find out if it will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which are also HER2 amplified or HER2 mutated. If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.
