CIMAvax Vaccine, Nivolumab, and Pembrolizumab in Treating Patients With Advanced Non-small Cell...
Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaLung Non-Small Cell Carcinoma13 moreThis phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of recombinant human EGF-rP64K/montanide ISA 51 vaccine (CIMAvax) and nivolumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer or squamous head and neck cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Vaccine therapy, such as CIMAvax vaccine may help slow down and stop tumor growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving CIMAvax vaccine together with nivolumab or pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer or squamous head and neck cancer.

Esophageal Squamous Cell CarcinomaThe aim of this study is to investigate the effect of postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone for patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Comparing Paclitaxel/Cisplatin and Cisplatin/5-fluorouracil in Neo-CRT for ESCC
Esophageal Squamous Cell CarcinomaChemoradiationThis clinical trial has two stages: phase II and phase III. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to the two arms: paclitaxel plus cisplatin and cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil. The phase II stage will enroll 128 patients, 64 patients for each arm. The endpoint of the phase II stage is complete pathological response (pCR). If the endpoint, i.e., the significant improvement of pCR rate, is met, the clinical trial will proceed to the phase III stage, in which 120 more patients will be enrolled. The estimated enrollment time is four years with 3 more years of follow-up after completing enrollment. The primary endpoint of the clinical trial is overall survival, and the secondary endpoints include clinical response, disease free survival, operation rate, complete resection rate, tumor regression rate, hospital stay days after surgery, safety and toxicity, and quality of life.

Vaccination With Flt3L, Radiation, and Poly-ICLC
Non-Hodgkin's LymphomaMetastatic Breast Cancer1 moreThis is a combination of 4 therapies, three of which are used to treat a single "target site" of your cancer (such as a lymph node or a single tumor), and the 4th is given directly into the blood stream (intravenous or "IV"). Radiation: The target site --lymph node or tumor (the one what will be injected) --will get two small treatments of radiation. Radiation is often times used to shrink and kill tumors in patients with certain types of lymphoma, breast cancer and head and neck cancer, however, the dose of radiation that you will receive --one dose on day one of the clinical trial and one dose on day two --is 10 to 20 time less radiation that you would receive for treatment of these cancers. Flt3L/CDX-301 is an immune cell growth factor, similar to white blood cell growth factors (Neupogen or Neulasta) or red blood cell growth factors (EPO or Epogen) that you may have received to help protect your blood cells previously. Flt3L causes your body to make more immune cells, specifically a type of immune cell called "dendritic cells". Poly-ICLC is an immune cell activating factor. Its function is to turn on the immune cells that have been brought to the tumor by Flt3L. Pembrolizumab is an antibody (a type of human protein) that is being tested to see if it will allow the body's immune system to kill your tumor cells. Pembrolizumab is approved for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with many different types of cancer including head and neck cancer. Pembrolizumab is not FDA approved to treat patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or metastatic breast cancer, as it has not been effective at treating these cancers when used alone. While most people do not have immediate side effects when this medication is given, it has the ability to cause side effects for.

Adoptive Transfer of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes for Advanced Solid Cancers
Gastric CancerColorectal Cancer8 moreThis is a Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy of a non-myeloablative lymphodepleting preparative regimen followed by infusion of autologous TIL and high-dose aldesleukin in patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic cancer associated with one of the following cancer types: 1.) gastric/esophagogastric, 2.) colorectal, 3.) pancreatic, 4.) sarcoma, 5.) mesothelioma, 6.) neuroendocrine, 7.) squamous cell cancer, 8.) Merkle cell, 9.) mismatch repair deficient and/or microsatellite unstable cancers, and 10.) patients who have exhausted conventional systemic therapy options by using the objective response rate (ORR).

The Phase II Trial of SHR-1210 Combined With Preoperative Chemotherapy or Apatinib for Locally Advanced...
Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell CarcinomaThe purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-1210 combined with preoperative chemotherapy or Apatinib for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Squamous Cell Carcinoma Of The Head And NeckThe purpose of this single arm, phase Ⅱ clinical trail is to determine the safety and efficacy of paclitaxel (albumin bound),bleomycin and cisplatin or carboplatin in the treatment of recurrent Or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

Safety and Efficacy of VB10.16 and Pembrolizumab in Patients With Head-Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma...
HPV-Related Squamous Cell CarcinomaHNSCCThis is a multi-center study in patients with un-resectable Recurrent or Metastatic HPV16-positive Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC). The trial is designed to investigate VB10.16, an investigational therapeutic DNA vaccine in combination with another medicine, pembrolizumab, which is the standard of care for patients with previously untreated metastatic or resectable recurrent PD-L1 positive HNSCC. The study is divided in 2 parts: a phase 1, dose escalation part, testing 3 different doses of VB10.16 in combination with a standard fixed dose of pembrolizumab. The goal of this part is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combined treatment and to decide on the dose of VB10.16 to be used in the second part of the trial. In the second part of the trial, a phase 2a, dose expansion part, participants will receive either the highest safe dose of VB10.16 from part 1 or the 3 mg dose both in combination with pembrolizumab. The dose given to each participant will be decided in random. The trial is designed to define the optimal dose of VB10.16 in combination with pembrolizumab for future clinical studies based on the safety, tolerability and anti-tumor effect data generated.

Neoadjuvant Tislelizumab Plus Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Oral/Oropharyngeal Cancer (NeoSPOT)...
Oral Squamous Cell CarcinomaOropharyngeal Squamous Cell CarcinomaPrevious studies confirmed locally advanced oral/oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LA OSCC or OPSCC) patients with a pathological response had higher probability of survival in neoadjuvant settings. Several ongoing trials of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in head and neck cancer showed promising results. However, the optimal regimen remains unclear. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant therapy with anti-programmed cell death 1 monoclonal antibody Tislelizumab and chemotherapy, followed by surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy plus Tislelizumab in LA OSCC or OPSCC.

Proton Versus Photon Therapy in Anal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Anal Cancer Squamous CellDosimetric studies suggest that radiotherapy with protons has a potential to reduce side effects compared to treatment with photons for patients with anal carcinoma (AC). There are so far no studies comparing these treatment techniques in a randomised setting. The aim of this study is to compare side effects following photon therapy versus proton therapy within the framework of a randomised controlled trial.
