Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

This is a phase III, multi-center, double-blind randomized controlled trial assessing the efficacy and safety of concurrent mitomycin C/5-Fu chemotherapy and long-course IMRT combined with PD-1 antibody Sintilimab for locally advanced anal canal squamous carcinoma patients, by comparing an experiment group (traditional chemoradiotherapy with PD-1 antibody Sintilimab) with a control group (traditional treatment without Sintilimab).

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery has been the standard modality for locally advance esophageal carcinoma. According to CROSS study, the pathological complete remission rate achieved by paclitaxel and carboplatin with 41.4 Gy/23f was 49% for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. But the 10-year overall survival rate was only 38%. How to increase the overall survival of esophageal carcinoma is a pivotal task. Both of Camrelizumab and Nimotuzumab have been demonstrated to be efficacious in the neoadjuvant treatment for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in some small sample-size trials. Therefore, this trial is designed to combine adjuvant chemoradiotherapy with Camrelizumab and Nimotuzumab for resectable & potentially resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and explore the safety and primary efficacy of such combination.

By doing this study, the research team would like to learn if using a blood test that measures the amount of tumor DNA in blood can help guide how to use chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy for individuals with head and neck cancer. Using this blood test, the research team hopes to learn if intermittent (occasional) chemotherapy added to immunotherapy will work better than immunotherapy alone. Participation in this research will last about two years.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of HPV-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma in patients with undetectable postoperative HPV circulating tumor DNA (cfHPVDNA), either with transoral robotic surgery (TORS) alone or combined with reduced doses of radiation and chemotherapy can result in cancer control and survival comparable to those previously reported with standard therapy. The hope is that with this newer approach, the long-term complications from chemotherapy and radiation can be reduced.

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of sintilimab combined with concurrent chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment for patients with operable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. It will also evaluate the changes in the immune microenvironment of tumor specimens before and after the medication, and predict the operable period (stage I~III) Patients with thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody, and the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody was evaluated by detecting the changes of microbial diversity and metabolites in stool samples before and after treatment.

The study aims to determine the efficacy of trastuzumab added to standard treatment (fluoropyrimidine/platinum doublet with pembrolizumab) in patients with HER2 positive Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) determined by 6 months progression free survival (PFS) (RECIST 1.1).

This study builds on the results of several prior studies that we have been involved with to test the hypothesis that Risk-Adapted De-Intensification of Radiation Therapy and chemotherapy based on HPV subtype, plasma circulating free HPV DNA (cfHPV DNA) level, and cfHPV DNA clearance rate produces Local-Regional Control rates that are similar to what has been achieved with more aggressive therapy in patients with Favorable Prognosis Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OPSCC).

To study induction therapy with Nab-paclitaxel, Cisplatin and Pembrolizumab in patients with Locally Advanced HNSCC.

This is an open-label, single-arm, Phase 2 study of pembrolizumab plus platinum and gemcitabine (PG) in subjects with recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC). Evaluable 63 subjects with R/M HNSCC will be enrolled for examination of the efficacy and safety of the combination of pembrolizumab (200 mg IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle, up to 35 cycles) in combination with platinum (either cisplatin at 35 mg/m2 IV using a split-dose regimen on Day 1 and Day 8 or carboplatin at AUC 5 IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle, up to 6 cycles) and gemcitabine at 1250 mg/m2 IV on Day 1 and 8 of each 3-week cycle, for up to 6 cycles as first-line treatment. This study will be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. Specific procedures to be performed during the trial, as well as their prescribed timelines and associated visit windows, are outlined in the protocol.

This is an Open, Single Arm, Exploratory and Phase II Clinical Trial of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules Combined With TQB2450 Injection in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) Patients as Postoperative Adjuvant Therapy. In order to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules combined with TQB2450 Injection in treatment of patients with ESCC. The primary endpoint is disease free survival (DFS).
