Active clinical trials for "Adenocarcinoma"

This phase II/III trial studies how well trametinib works and compares it to standard treatment with either letrozole, tamoxifen, paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, or topotecan in treating patients with low-grade ovarian cancer or peritoneal cavity cancer that has come back (recurrent), become worse (progressive), or spread to other parts of the body. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether trametinib is more effective than standard therapy in treating patients with ovarian or peritoneal cavity cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well bevacizumab, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and oxaliplatin before surgery works in treating patients with stage II-III rectal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bevacizumab together with fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and oxaliplatin may be an effective treatment for rectal cancer.

The aim of this study is to test the safety and efficacy of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) in localized prostate carcinoma in patients for whom the standard treatment is the irradiation of the entire prostate gland with or without seminal vesicles accompanied or not by hormonal therapy. In light of the accumulating clinical evidence favoring the use of hypo fractionation, SBRT regimen might constitute a much more convenient non-invasive and highly efficient outpatient therapy.

This partially randomized phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of pegylated recombinant human hyaluronidase (PEGPH20) when given together with combination chemotherapy and to see how well they work compared with combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Pegylated recombinant human hyaluronidase may help chemotherapy drugs work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, and oxaliplatin, 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. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without pegylated recombinant human hyaluronidase in treating pancreatic cancer.

This randomized phase II-R/III trial studies gemcitabine hydrochloride with or without erlotinib hydrochloride followed by the same chemotherapy regimen with or without radiation therapy and capecitabine or fluorouracil in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that was removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, capecitabine, and fluorouracil, 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. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy together with or without erlotinib hydrochloride and/or radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy is more effective when given with or without erlotinib hydrochloride and/or radiation therapy in treating pancreatic cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well hormone therapy and intensity-modulated radiation therapy work in treating patients with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Anti-hormone therapy using goserelin, leuprolide acetate, or bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving hormone therapy and intensity-modulated radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with prostate cancer.

This phase II trial the side effects and possible benefits of etigilimab and nivolumab in treating patients with platinum-resistant clear cell ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as etigilimab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding etigilimab to nivolumab therapy can help to control clear cell ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers that are resistant to platinum-based therapy.

The primary objective of this maintenance therapy study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/ or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), and evaluate the safety, tolerability, and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of odetiglucan in combination with CDX-1140 in patients with metastatic PDAC with evidence of response or stable disease following a minimum of 16 and no more than 32 weeks of chemotherapy. Up to 45 patients will be enrolled and dosed (30 patients in Part A and 15 in Part B).

Short-course radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy may bring revolutionary changes to the preoperative neoadjuvant treatment mode for locally advanced rectal cancer. According to the existing theory, the use of PD-L1 monoclonal antibody after short-course radiotherapy may be the best solution. In this study, the investigators will perform single-cell sequencing of participants tissue samples, fully explore the multi-dimensional omics information of tumors and microenvironments, explore the characteristics of the treatment benefit population, and try to construct an efficacy prediction model to screen the treatment benefit population early and implement precise treatment.

This is a multicenter, single arm, prospective, open-label phase II trial investigating the clinical activity of a first-line therapy consisting of induction chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab (12 weeks of mod. FOLFOX-6 plus pembrolizumab or 12 weeks of CAPOX plus pembrolizumab) followed by pembrolizumab plus olaparib.
