Active clinical trials for "Adenocarcinoma"

Gastric cancer is a high incidence in Asia, and one of the leading cause of death in Korea. A cure rate is improving due to early diagnosis. However, the 5-year survival rate of gastric cancer excluding early gastric cancer is about 40 ~ 67%. Therefore, several methods for lowering the recurrence rate have been attempted and concurrent chemoradiotherapy can be considered as a method to lower the recurrence rate of gastric cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pathologic response rate and safety of patients who underwent surgery after chemoradiotherapy.

This is an open-label, multicenter study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of vactosertib in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic or locally advanced colorectal or gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma

This study is a single center, phase II study, to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of PD-1 Antibody(SHR-1210) Plus apatinib Combined With POF(paclitaxel plus oxaliplatin plus 5-fluorouracil plus leucovorin) , in the first-line treatment for patients with advanced/metastatic gastric cancer.

This is a phase II pilot trial of Paclitaxel Protein Bound and Gemcitabine based chemotherapy and the addition of Paricalcitol upon attainment of stable or progressive disease in eligible patients with untreated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

A single arm, open-label pilot study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of personalized mRNA tumor vaccine encoding neoantigen in Patients with advanced esophageal squamous carcinoma, gastric adenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma and colorectal adenocarcinoma

Rationale: Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations (del19 or L858R) show an impressive progression-free survival between 9 and 11 months when treated with gefitinib. Combination of gefitinib and berberine could improve efficacy in lung cancer with EGFR mutation in vivo and vitro. The investigators hypothesize that progression-free survival could be improved by combination of gefitinib and berberine.

This is a prospective one arm phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TQB2450 (PD-L1 inhibitor), anlotinib combined with oxaliplatin and capecitabine in patients with unresectable locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer or adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction.

At present, the treatment of advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer is a research hotspot in the academic community. In Asia, Siewert type II and type III are the main types of advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer. The current consensus in the academic community for the treatment of this part of the tumor is based on the principles of diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer, of which the value of neoadjuvant therapy in this part of the tumor has been paid more and more attention by scholars. However, there is no highly recognized neoadjuvant therapy. The current situation will promote the development of advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer to accurate preoperative staging, more accurate population screening, more accurate targets and molecular markers. Immunotherapy is a promising application in oncology. Several PD1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies are approved by FDA for the clinical treatment of melanoma and other tumors. Previous clinical studies have shown that PD1/PD-L1 has limited efficacy in digestive tract tumors. However, on ASCO in 2020, Asian analysis of KEYNOTE-062 study showed that in HER-2 negative advanced gastric cancer with PD-1 combined positive score (CPS) ≥ 1 and CPS ≥ 10, the OS of PD-1 inhibitor treatment was superior to that of chemotherapy group, with 24-month OS rate (CPS ≥ 1, 45% VS 23%, CPS ≥ 10, 54% VS 27%). Meanwhile, the results of PACIFIC study phase III clinical trial showed that the 3-year OS of PD-L1 monoclonal antibody combined with radiotherapy in advanced unresectable lung cancer was as high as 57%, which is expected to completely rewrite its clinical practice. Immunotherapy is promising in cancer therapy. This study intends to use immunotherapy combined with SOX (S-1 + Oxaliplatin) as a neoadjuvant therapy for advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer.

Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) gene mutations can be detected in many solid tumors, patients with HRR gene mutations may benefit from PARP inhibitor. Antiangiogenic drugs can induce hypoxia and increase the sensitivity to PARP inhibitor. The combination of PARP inhibitor and antiangiogenic drug can play a synergistic anti-tumor role and achieve good efficacy in HRR gene-mutated tumors. The purpose of the study is to determine the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerable dose (MTD) of Niraparib plus Anlotinib in HRR gene-mutated advanced solid tumors, and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this combination therapy preliminarily.

111Indium-labelled IPN01087 (111In-IPN01087) is developed as a radioactive diagnostic imaging agent in patients with colorectal or pancreatic cancer. It is used with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for the identification of tumours that overexpress the neurotensin receptor-1 (NTSR1). The purpose of this study is to assess how well 111In-IPN01087 is tolerated and what the most suitable amount to be injected is to obtain good quality images. The study will also look at how 111In-IPN01087 is distributed throughout the body and what the optimal time for doing the scans will be after it has been given as a single intravenous injection.
