Active clinical trials for "Uterine Cervical Neoplasms"

Patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer，and will be treated with GLS-010.

The standard treatment for non-operative cervical cancer is concurrent external radiation therapy and chemotherapy followed by brachytherapy. During the period of radiotherapy, organ movement and tumor shrinkage may lead to insufficient or excessive radiation dose for the tumor and organs at risk. Adaptive radiotherapy can use images information acquired during treatment as feedback to reduce errors. Total 122 cases of cervical cancer with stage IB2-IVA will be randomly enrolled. Concurrent external volumetric rotational intensity modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy followed by image-guided adaptive brachytherapy is the treatment strategies of control group patients. Concurrent adaptive external volumetric rotational intensity modulated radiotherapy and chemotherapy followed by image-guided adaptive brachytherapy is the treatment strategies of experimental group patients. CT repositioning will be performed after 15fractions of external radiotherapy, then new target volume will be contoured and new radiotherapy plan will be formulated with the assistance of artificial intelligence program. New radiotherapy plan will be performed from the 17th fraction external radiotherapy. Information on side effects, survival, dosimetry, imaging, clinical features, and cost-effectiveness will be collected. The statistical analysis is as follows, First is the difference in grade 3 side effects between the two groups. Second is 2-year PFS and OS differences between the two groups. Third is relationship between dosimetric differences and prognosis. Fourth one is to analyze the prognostic and predictive factors of adaptive radiotherapy from the patient's clinical characteristics, Positron emission tomography-computed tomography(PET/CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) and other multimodal information. Fifth is cost-benefit analysis of Artificial Intelligence(AI).

Cervical cancer is the second-most common cancer in the world and is a leading cause of cancer death among women in developing countries. Cisplatin-based chemotherapy +/- bevacizumab have been recommended as the first-line treatment for patients who present with metastatic (e.g. stage IVB), persistent, or recurrent cervical cancer. However, patients in this setting are rarely curable. Pembrolizumab has been approved for second-line treatment in patients with advanced PD-L1-positive cervical cancer. However, the response rate achieved by PD-1 inhibitors as monotherapy is only modest. Preclinical studies found that in mouse models of B-cell lymphoma, adding a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor sensitized cancers to anti-PD-1 therapy. Recently, combination treatment of HDAC inhibitors with immune checkpoint inhibitors is widely investigated and has promising results in several cancer types. Toripalimab is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody against PD-1. Chidamide is a class I HDAC inhibitor. Here we conducted a phase Ib/II, single-arm, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab in combination with chidamide in patients with metastatic, persistent, or recurrent cervical cancer.

In this single-arm study, patient with cervical cancer who had recurrence of the pelvic wall after surgery ± Abdominal aortic lymph node metastasis will be included to evaluate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with concurrent chemoradiation and subsequent maintenance therapy

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs such as cidofovir may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving cidofovir together with radiation therapy and chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cidofovir in treating patients with stage IB, stage II, stage III, or stage IVA cervical cancer who are receiving chemotherapy together with radiation therapy.

This phase I study is designed to establish an optimal dose of paclitaxel, under a fixed cisplatin dose at 40 mg/m2, delivered every week for three weeks, as neoadjuvant therapy before radical hysterectomy in bulky (FIGO IB2 or FIGO IIA with primary tumor dimension > 4 cm) squamous cell cervical cancer. This study will be conducted at all branches of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. The starting dose of paclitaxel is 50 mg/m2, and will be escalated by increments of 10 mg/m2 to a maximum dose of 80 mg/m2. The drugs will be administered sequentially (paclitaxel first, followed by cisplatin) within one day every week for three cycles. A cohort of 3 patients, who are assessable for toxicity, is treated at each dose level. Each patient receives a fixed dose of paclitaxel and cisplatin, without modification. If none of the first 3 patients experiences a dose limiting toxicity (DLT, see definition below this paragraph), then escalation to the next dose level will proceed. If one patient develops a DLT, the cohort will be expanded to 6 patients. If no more than 1 of these 6 patients experiences a DLT, then escalation to the next dose level will proceed. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is the highest dose level at which no more than 1 of 6 patients experience a DLT. This dose level will be considered as the recommended dose for Phase II study. Although efficacy evaluation is not the main purpose of this study, a response rate of 60%, evaluated immediately before or at surgery, in all cases who have undergone 2 cycles of therapy is preset as a requirement for further phase II study using this regimen.The primary goal of NAC in cervical cancer is to improve the feasibility of surgical treatment, radical hysterectomy, without delaying the scheduled surgery or increasing the surgical risk or morbidity. Therefore, the definition of DLT for NAC is responded to this principle, in addition to the standard dose-limiting toxicity for phase I study.

This phase III study is designed to examine if low-risk, as defined by clinical and radiological parameters, stage IB-IIB cervical cancer patients treated by cisplatin-based chemoradiation, which is a recommended method by today's standard, have greater toxicities but similar survival rate as those treated by radiotherapy (RT) alone. Patients will be primarily treated with radiotherapy with same protocol, but without concurrent chemotherapy in the control arm, and with weekly cisplatin (40 mg/M2) for 6 courses in the study arm. This study will be conducted at all branches of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital except Chia-I. Patients will be randomized to either arm after stratification of risk factors. Each arm will recruit 104 patients who have no LN and systemic metastasis as defined by CT/MRI and FDG-PET. The primary end point is grade 3-5 late toxicities, and secondary end points are 1) recurrence free survival; 2) acute toxicity of treatments; 3) sites of recurrence; 4) quality of life; 5) total treatment time. It is expected to take 5 years to recruit enough case number.

The current standard for recurrent, persistent or metastatic cervical cancer is palliative chemotherapy with cisplatin topotecan, however, the results need to be improved. Epigenetic aberrations play an important role in cancer progression by silencing growth regulatory genes and there is now evidence that inhibitors of DNA methylation and HDAC inhibition synergize the cytotoxicity of chemotherapy. Objective. To determine the superiority of epigenetic therapy with hydralazine and valproate plus standard cisplatin topotecan against placebo plus cisplatin topotecan upon progression-free survival. Hypothesis. Hydralazine and magnesium valproate associated to cisplatin topotecan will increase progression-free survival from 4.6 to 7.6 months as compared with the same regimen of chemotherapy plus placebo.

Current planning for studies involving patients with recurrent, persistent, or metastasized cervical cancer must take into consideration that up to 75% of all patients are assumed to have already been treated with cisplatin in conjunction with radiation therapy. It seems questionable to continue to treat patients with cisplatin when cancer has recurred. Thus, it is important to seek alternative active combinations. The studies GOG 169 and 179 demonstrated that a combination of paclitaxel and cisplatin was superior to a cisplatin monotherapy with respect to therapeutic response and progression-free survival, as was a combination of topotecan and cisplatin with respect to therapeutic response, progression-free survival, and total survival. To achieve further improvement in total survival and to answer questions regarding the value of using a platinum-free combination, we propose that a study should be conducted to compare the efficacy of a platinum-free combination of paclitaxel and topotecan to a combination of cisplatin and topotecan.

This is an open-label, multicenter, randomized phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab in patients with recurrent cervical cancer in second line therapy. A total of 48 patients will be randomized in 3 arms, each arm consisting of 16 patients: Arm A: atezolizumab monotherapy q3w Arm B: atezolizumab combined with doxorubicin q3w Arm C: doxorubicin monotherapy q3w
