Filter by:The proposed study aims to increase HPV screening behaviors in Jamaican women by examining the acceptability of HPV Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) self-sampling tools, and to determine the most culturally appropriate and effective message design for promoting such a tool in this context.
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drug in combination with radiation to learn whether the drug(s) works in treating a specific disease. In this study, researchers are studying three treatment arms, each using standard chemotherapy, with the drug cisplatin and radiation and the drug Nivolumab. Each treatment Arm will test the addition of Nivolumab at a different time point
This is an open-label, multicenter, basket trial Phase II study to evaluate the antitumor activity of simlukafusp alfa in combination with atezolizumab in participants with advanced and/or metastatic solid tumors. Currently the focus is on participants with Head and Neck, oesophageal and cervical cancers with confirmed squamous cell carcinoma histology type.
The investigators propose to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of standard chemotherapy with bevacizumab with Pembrolizumab in women with recurrent, persistent, or metastatic cervical cancer.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of adavosertib when given together with external beam radiation therapy and cisplatin in treating patients with cervical, vaginal, or uterine cancer. Adavosertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. External beam radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving adavosertib, external beam radiation therapy, and cisplatin may work better in treating patients with cervical, vaginal, or uterine cancer.
In France, the vaccination coverage observed for HPV vaccination is low for a full-scale regimen, and has been falling since 2010. A high rate of HPV vaccination coverage has a significant epidemiological impact with a reduction in cervical cancer mortality. There is less data on vaccinated catch-up patients. In 2017, these patients are 25 years of age or older and carry out screening smears. The aim of this study is to demonstrate whether HPV catch-up vaccination results in a decrease in the abnormal smear rate compared to the rate in unvaccinated patients. If so, these data will help mobilize doctors to vaccinate patients against HPV, even in catching-up.
The investigators have developed co-registered transvaginal photoacoustic and ultrasound (US) imaging techniques that allow them to visualize ovarian tumor structure and functional changes simultaneously, which may potentially reveal early tumor angiogenesis development or residual tumors after systemic treatment that is not available by US alone. The ability to detect early angiogenesis changes, as well as tumor morphology changes using a non-invasive imaging modality will greatly enhance the care for patients. The investigators plan to explore these techniques in monitoring cervical cancer treatment response and conduct pilot feasibility studies.
The multimodal imaging technology, OCT-AFI, will be used to image sites on the cervix, the endocervical canal and vulva. The imaging probe is small enough, it can be inserted into the endocervical canal for imaging. The probe can also be placed in a conformable holder that can be shaped to conform the the folds of the vulva for vulvar imaging. The resultant images will be compared to histology images. The objectives are to determine 1. feasibility of the technology in imaging vulva and its capability in detecting vulvar intraepithelial neoplasias 2. feasibility in imaging cervix from endocervical canal to transformation zone to ectocervix 3. if combined OCT with AFI increases the sensitivity of detecting high grade lesions in the cervix compared to just AFI alone (previous work was AFI alone).
This research study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of 2 immunotherapy drugs in combination with radiation therapy as a possible treatment for recurrent or metastatic gynecologic cancer. The names of the immunotherapy drugs involved in this study are: - Durvalumab - Tremelimumab
Locally advanced cervix cancers (stage 1B-IV) are usually treated with radiotherapy, concomitant cisplatin chemotherapy and brachytherapy. Failure to achieve locoregional control (LRC) remains a problem, especially in the setting of stage III/IV disease. More importantly, however, the dominant unresolved problem remains the occurrence of distant metastatic relapse. With the knowledge that 99% of all cervix cancer is associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, there is a strong rationale to consider immunomodulatory strategies in the radical management of this disease. Therefore, in this research protocol the investigator will treat patients with stage 1B-IVA carcinoma of the cervix planned to receive radical radiotherapy with concomitant cisplatin and brachytherapy. The research involves adding a new therapy in the form of an antiPD1 monoclonal antibody (pembrolizumab) to the standard treatment of radiotherapy combined with cisplatin chemotherapy and brachytherapy. This treatment seeks to activate the patient's own immune system to attack the cancer cells - and the investigator believes that adding this treatment during standard treatment may be particularly effective. Patients will receive an initial dose of pembrolizumab 2 weeks before starting a course of chemoradiotherapy and brachytherapy. In the first instance, patients will receive 100 mg of pembrolizumab and, if this is safe and tolerable in the first 3 patients, the dose will be increased to 200 mg for all other patients. Radiation will be delivered on 28 occasions with chemotherapy given intravenously in weeks 0, 1, 2 and 3. Brachytherapy will be given on 3 occasions after completion of the radiation. Additional doses of pembrolizumab will be given every 3 weeks for a further 7 doses. The investigator will assess the feasibility and safety of the combination of pembrolizumab with radiotherapy and cisplatin.
