Active clinical trials for "Adenocarcinoma"

This research is designed to determine if experimental treatment with Antibody-drug conjugate, AZD5335, alone, or in combination with anti-cancer agents is safe, tolerable, and has anti-cancer activity in patients with advanced tumors

Cardiovascular diseases and cancers, the two leading causes of death in Canada, require cholesterol to sustain their progression. All cells require cholesterol, but cancer cells have much higher needs to sustain growth, division and metastasis. The availability of new cholesterol-lowering drugs developed to protect patients from heart diseases has resulted in unprecedented low levels of cholesterol. The combination of atorvastatin, ezetimibe and Repatha, which are 3 cholesterol-lowering drugs used in combination, is safe, well tolerated and efficient over years of treatment. Recent reports indicate that abundant cholesterol supplies are required to sustain the progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas. This proof-of-concept study aims to verify the feasibility, the acceptability and gain preliminary data on adding a cholesterol shortage on top of FOLFIRINOX (standard chemotherapy) in newly diagnosed patients with locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinomas or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinomas. It is expected that a drug-induced cholesterol shortage will slow-down or stop the progression of pancreatic adenocarcinomas while increasing the response to chemotherapy.

This is a multi-center, non-randomized, 3-cohort, phase II trial, evaluating a triplet combination of docetaxel, oxaliplatin and fluorouracil for gastric cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis and inoperable malignant bowel obstruction.

This study is being done to find out if zanidatamab, when given with chemotherapy plus or minus tislelizumab, is safe and works better than trastuzumab given with chemotherapy. The patients in this study will have advanced human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive stomach and esophageal cancers that are no longer treatable with surgery (unresectable) or chemoradiation, and/or have grown or spread to other parts of the body (metastatic).

An open-label, single-centre, non-randomized, Phase II trial in patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma. This study aims to show that delivering hypofractionated neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy is is equally effective as conventionally fractionated neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy.

This is a open-label, single center to determine the efficacy and safety of IM92 CAR-T cells in Patients With advanced gastric/esophagogastric combination adenocarcinoma that has failed at least second-line therapy and advanced pancreatic cancer that has failed at least first-line therapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine the Objective Response Rate (ORR) of zolbetuzimab as a single agent as assessed by an independent central reader. This study will also assess the ORR and Progression Free Survival (PFS) of zolbetuximab in combination with mFOLFOX6 (with or without Nivolumab) and in combination with pembrolizumab, assess the safety and tolerability, assess the effects on CLDN18.2 expression and assess the immunogenicity and immunomodulatory effects of zolbetuximab as a single agent and in combination with mFOLFOX6 (with or without Nivolumab) and in combination with pembrolizumab. This study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of zolbetuximab, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil (5-FU), and pembrolizumab, evaluate health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), evaluate the Disease Control Rate (DCR), Duration of Response (DOR), PFS of zolbetuximab as a single agent, in combination with mFOLFOX6 (with or without Nivolumab) and in combination with pembrolizumab based on both investigator and independent central reader assessment, assess Overall Survival (OS) of zolbetuximab as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab.

Aim of this prospective multicenter study is to evaluate the safety of an endoscopic follow-up strategy in patients treated with endoscopic resection (ER) for submucosal or high-risk mucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma (T1bN0M0 or HR T1aN0M0 EAC).

Previously untreated patients with limited metastatic stage (see protocol for details on criteria) will receive 4 cycles of FLOT (5-Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, Oxaliplatin and Docetaxel). Patients without disease progression will be randomized 1:1 to receive additional chemotherapy cycles (4-8 cycles of FLOT) or surgical resection followed by subsequent chemotherapy (4-8 cycles of FLOT). Main objective of the study is overall survival. Most important secondary objective is the quality of life under treatment and during follow-up.

This phase 2 trial studies radium Ra 223 dichloride, hormone therapy and stereotactic body radiation in treating patients with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Radium Ra 223 dichloride contains a radioactive substance that collects in the bone and gives off radiation that may kill cancer cells. Hormone therapy using leuprolide acetate or goserelin acetate may fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of testosterone the body makes. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is a specialized radiation therapy that sends x-rays directly to the tumor using smaller doses over several days and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving radium Ra 223 dichloride, hormone therapy and stereotactic body radiation may work better at treating prostate cancer.
