Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate if the DermaSense prototype EIS scanner can provide medical decision support which can complement dermoscopy-based identification of the disease at time of biopsy decision.

This is a randomized, open, two arm phase II clinical study. 40 patients are included in the exploratory study. The dominant population with higher biomarker positive / IO score was identified to provide the basis for the later phase III study. The subjects were randomly divided into the group of camrelizumab combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin or the group of camrelizumab combined with albumin bound paclitaxel and cisplatin according to the ratio of 1:1. The treatment cycle was every 3 weeks. The curative effect was evaluated when the treatment cycle was 2, and the resection of esophageal cancer was considered after 3 cycles. Postoperative adjuvant therapy was based on the patient's condition and surgical results; For patients with R0 resection, postoperative adjuvant treatment is not recommended. For patients with R1 / R2 resection, multi-disciplinary joint discussion and consultation are recommended to propose individualized comprehensive treatment.

This study examines the safety and efficacy of using the Imvamune smallpox vaccine in the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancers (basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma).

The prognosis of patients with locally advanced SCCHN is poor. Results of recent randomized trials evaluating induction chemotherapy by docetaxel, cisplatin, 5 fluorouracil are conflicting, and benefit on overall survival is uncertain. Improve efficacy of induction chemotherapy is important without increase toxicities. Durvalumab is a promising agent in SSCHN. The safety of combination of docetaxel, cisplatin, 5 fluorouracil with durvalumab is unknown. The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and the safety of the association of DCF (standard regimen for induction in SSCCHN) and durvalumab. The safety profile of DCF and durvalumab are different, so the expected toxicities should not be additive. The addition of durvalumab to DCF could improve the efficacy of induction chemotherapy and the prognostic of patients with SSCCHN. Concerning the translational research, the aim will be to explore the relationships between immune capacity, specificity, activation state and clinical outcome to help elucidate the determinants of response to immunotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and 2-year local control rate for extensive clinical target volumes in postoperative radiotherapy concurrent with chemotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of paclitaxel, capecitabine, mitomycin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy is more effective than the standard combination of capecitabine, mitomycin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with squamous-cell anal cancer.

This study will compare TNFE-NBI and biopsy, with DRE and biopsy for the diagnostic evaluation and staging of patients with suspicious UADT lesions. All patients enrolled in the study will undergo TNFE-NBI with biopsy of suspicious lesions prior to planned regular clinical care (DRE). Biopsies will be evaluated by standard clinical methods for patient diagnoses and care. As the current standard of care, if all biopsies for a given patient are non-malignant, a 3 month office visit will be arranged to evaluate and determine the need for further intervention. At the end of study enrollment both sets of biopsies will be re-evaluated in a blinded fashion by the surgical pathologist. Study assessment of malignant vs. non-malignant (benign) pathology will be used to see whether both tests tended to agree on diagnoses.

To examine the safety and toxicity of concurrent radiotherapy with cisplatin with the further addition of cetuximab experimental treatment

The aim of this trial is to compare the accelerated fractionation radiotherapy and concurrent chemo-radiotherapy in locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients in terms of loco-regional control, toxicities and quality of life.

Controversy over surgical treatment of clinically negative neck in early stage oral squamous cell carcinoma revolves around the uncertainty of its impact on patient prognosis. The efficacy of elective neck dissection on prognosis in T1, 2 N0M0 patients continues to be the subject of clinical debate. Currently the clinically negative patients are treated by one of the two main policies: one is elective neck dissection; the other is "watchful waiting". The objective of this multi-institutional prospective randomized controlled study is to evaluate the survival benefit of elective neck dissection on the prognosis of T1, 2 N0M0 patients with carcinoma of oral cavity. The enrolled patients with T1, 2 N0M0 oral cancer will be randomized into two groups: elective neck dissection versus watch and wait. The survival rate and the recurrence rate between two groups will be compared. The result of the study will give surgeons evidence-based instructions for the management of clinically negative neck in patients with cancer of oral cavity.
