Active clinical trials for "Adenocarcinoma"

Lung cancer is a major public health problem and remains the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Moreover, in France, it is the 3rd most common cancer in terms of incidence. Its prognosis remains poor despite the emergence of new therapies, notably the Epithelial Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors which can be used in patients with adenocarcinoma presenting an activating mutation of EGFR. In addition, a number of questions remain regarding the use of these molecules, including the possibility of combining them with other therapies such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy. In addition, the duration of treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors is a matter of debate, mainly in localised forms (ADAURA trial). For this reason, we have proposed tests using TKIs on an in vitro platform based on organoid formation from tumour biopsies of NSCLC patients. This model will allow to test different molecules, in particular osimertinib which is a third generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In this way, it will be possible to evaluate in vitro responder patients within a timeframe compatible with the timeframe proposed by the INCA (4-6 weeks). For non-responders, it will also be possible to screen them in vitro and seek the ideal alternative therapy. This model therefore aims to develop personalised medicine in thoracic oncology and could be used as a decision aid during multidisciplinary consultation meetings.

This phase II trial investigates the effect of nivolumab and ipilimumab when given together with short-course radiation therapy in treating patients with rectal cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving nivolumab, ipilimumab, and radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells.

Previous studies have confirmed the great potential of quantitative fluorescence molecular endoscopy (qFME) when looking at additional lesion detection initially missed by high-definition white light endoscopy (HD-WLE) for surveillance of Barrett's esophagus.

This is a phase 1b/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NANT-008 in combination with 5-fluorouracil, bevacizumab, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin in patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

This is an open-label, non-randomized, single-center, therapeutic trial in patients with AJCC Stage III or IV pancreatic cancer with tumor related abdominal and/or back pain to evaluate the safety of high intensity focused ultrasound therapy using the FEP-BY02 HIFU system for palliation of pancreatic cancer-related pain. Patients meeting all eligibility criteria without any exclusion criteria will be offered an opportunity to participate in the study. After obtaining informed consent a baseline history, physical examination, laboratory studies, and any additional imaging studies needed will be performed. The major theoretic risk to the patient with this procedure is the development of acute pancreatitis. If acute pancreatitis were to develop, it should become clinically evident by day 3 following HIFU ablation. Therefore, the initial phase of this pilot study is designed to allow a sufficient interval between HIFU treatments to identify whether this theoretic risk will manifest clinically. Previous clinical experience in China suggests that HIFU of pancreatic tumors is safe without risk of developing severe acute pancreatitis. Patients treated with HIFU will have approximately 15-20% of the tumor volume treated per session. The first 5 patients (feasibility study) will receive their first HIFU treatment followed by a 3-5 day interval for observation. Following the feasibility study the results will be reviewed with the FDA. If no serious adverse events are encountered, and the FDA agrees with continuing the study, then the next 5 patients will be treated with an interval of 2-3 days between each treatment. If no serious adverse events are encountered in this group, then the next group of 5 patients will be treated at intervals of 1-2 days between each treatment.

This is a multicenter, prospective, observational study designed to capture a limited set of data consisting of diagnostic test results and clinical management information on subjects who undergo EC/EG to assess for the presence of BE/EAC. Once sufficient time has elapsed for EsoGuard results to be available, as well as for any subsequent clinical evaluation to have been performed (e.g., upper endoscopy and any initial therapeutic management), study staff will obtain the desired information and record it in an electronic data collection (EDC) system, pertaining to subject demographics, pertinent medical history, and risk factors for BE or EAC as well as (1) information about the EsoCheck cell collection procedure and patient tolerance, (2) EsoGuard test result; (3) initial clinical management including upper endoscopy, if performed, and diagnosis (as determined by the endoscopist and the pathologist assessing any biopsies taken), as well as (4) additional clinical management and/or a therapeutic procedure(s) performed. The time point for collecting such information shall be fluid, depending on the time course of care provided subsequent to the EsoGuard result being available. It is expected typically to be approximately 4 months given the systemic delays in scheduling and performing upper endoscopies and obtaining biopsy results. There is no a priori limit on the timeline for obtaining these data, but it is . anticipated that all data collection will be completed within 8 months of the availability of EsoGuard results.

This study aims to evaluate the superiority in recurrence-free survival of lobectomy compared with segmentectomy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma ≤ 2 cm with micropapillary and solid subtype positive by intraoperative frozen sections.

This phase II trial studies how well gallium Ga 68 DOTA-NeoBOMB1 and gallium Ga 68 PSMA-R2 positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) work in diagnosing participants with prostate cancer that has come back. Diagnostic procedures, such as gallium Ga 68 DOTA-NeoBOMB1 and gallium Ga 68 PSMA-R2 PET/MRI, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.

The registry aims to collect and analyse information on the antineoplastic treatment of patients with metastatic esophageal, gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer, treated in palliative intention in daily routine practice in Germany.
