Active clinical trials for "Adenocarcinoma"

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining paclitaxel and bryostatin-1 in treating patients who have locally advanced unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bryostatin-1 may help paclitaxel kill more cancer cells by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of irinotecan in treating patients who have advanced cancer of the stomach.

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus radiation therapy in treating women who have stage III or stage IV endometrial cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of combination chemotherapy when given with radiation therapy in treating patients with stage III or stage IV endometrial cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells.

This is a phase II study of OBP-301 with pembrolizumab in advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that has progressed on at least 2 lines of prior therapy for advanced disease.

the study evaluate the efficacy and safety of EUS-RFA using Habib EUS-RFA catheter with a prospective randomised trial in patients with inoperable PDAC.

Advanced biliary tract adenocarcinoma has a poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. Nab-paclitaxel plus S-1 chemotherapy will be given to untreated patients with advanced biliary tract adenocarcinoma for the first-line treatment.

Previous studies have shown that irreversible electroporation (IRE) preoperative induction chemotherapy or adjuvant chemotherapy after IRE can reduce the local recurrence rate of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) and benefit the survival of patients. According to the technical principle of electroporation therapy (EPT), when the cell membrane is electroporated, the resistance of cell membrane decreases instantaneously, which promotes the drug to enter tumor cells and significantly increases its cytotoxicity and killing effect on tumor tissue. The purpose of study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of simultaneous gemcitabine administration and IRE for treating LAPC. In order to provide new ideas for the treatment of LAPC.

This Phase I study will test the combination of a novel ATR inhibitor (M6620) with chemoradiotherapy in oesophageal cancer; utilizing three experimental cohorts (Stage A1, A2 and B).

In general, for patients with stage I or II disease, surgery provides the best chance for cure.EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs)are standard first-line treatment for EGFR-mutant advanced NSCLC.Afatinib was a 2nd-generation EGFR TKI that covalently bound and irreversibly blocked signaling through activated EGFR, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), and ErbB4 receptors, and the FDA has approved afatinib for first-line treatment of patients with metastatic NSCLC who have sensitizing EGFR mutations.The treatment of stage III NSCLC remains a matter of debate. Current multimodality treatment options for stage III included definitive chemoradiation, surgery followed by adjuvant therapy,or neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgical resection.Previous studies have revealed that adjuvant EGFR-TKI could significantly prolong disease free surivival, and have less toxicity than adjuvant chemotherapy for early resectable EGFR mutation positive NSCLC patients.EMERGING-CTONG1103 regarding neoadjuvant erlotinib vs chemotherapy (Gemcitabine plus cisplatin) for stage III NSCLC reveal that erlotinib has improved ORR (54%), major pathological response, operation rate, R0 resection and lymph node downstaging, and progression-free survival (PFS).A phase II trial (ASCENT) of neoadjuvant afatinib for stage III EGFR-mutation NSCLC concludes that afatinib yields the highest ORR (75%) up to now and verifies the feasibility of neoadjuvant EGFR TKIs for stage III NSCLC. However, no more studies are available so far to confirm the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant afatinib in the treatment of resectable stage III EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC, and there is a lack of studies based on the Chinese population. Given that the neoadjuvant therapy has delayed the operation time and there is a potential risk of cancer progression, more data are needed to perform evaluation.
