Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

A phase 1/2 open-label multicenter study will be performed with an initial dose escalation part to determine the MTD and/or the RP2D of MCLA-129 as monotherapy in patients with NSCLC, HNSCC, GC/GEJ, ESCC, or other solid tumors and who have progressed after receiving prior therapy for advanced/metastatic disease.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of pepinemab in combination with pembrolizumab as first-line treatment and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC).

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy with cisplatin and paclitaxel as neoadjuvant treatment in participants with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), and to explore treatment resistance mechanisms.

This phase I trial tests the safety and tolerability of an experimental personalized vaccine when given by itself and with pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid tumor cancers that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). The experimental vaccine is designed target certain proteins (neoantigens) on individuals' tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as 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 the personalized neoantigen peptide-based vaccine with pembrolizumab may be safe and effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.

This is a multi-center, open-label Phase 2 study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BA3021 in PD-1/L1 failure patients with ROR-2 expression in recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Following basal cell carcinoma, Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (CSCC) is the most common skin cancer and its incidence remains on a steady rise. The vast majority of CSCC lesions are treated with surgical resection and have a cure rate exceeding 90 percent in early-stage disease. In stark contrast, the 5-year overall survival rate is below 50% for locally advanced patients and less than 10 percent for those with distant metastases. Although the commonly used cisplatin-based combination chemotherapies may achieve an overall response rate of up to 80%, the efficacy is usually not durable. Moreover, the use of chemotherapy is limited due to the many adverse events, especially in elderly patients, who are the largest population of concern for CSCC. The purpose of this study was to assess safety, efficacy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic CSCC given HLX07 (Recombinant Humanized Anti-EGFR Monoclonal Antibody Injection).

This phase II/III compares the standard therapy (chemotherapy plus cetuximab) versus adding bevacizumab to standard chemotherapy, versus combination of just bevacizumab and atezolizumab in treating patients with head and neck cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic or advanced stage) or has come back after prior treatment (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Cetuximab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called EGFR, which is found on some types of cancer cells. This may help keep cancer cells from growing. Cisplatin and carboplatin are in a class of chemotherapy medications known as platinum-containing compounds. They work by killing, stopping, or slowing the growth of cancer cells. Docetaxel is in a class of chemotherapy medications called taxanes. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. The addition of bevacizumab to standard chemotherapy or combination therapy with bevacizumab and atezolizumab may be better than standard chemotherapy plus cetuximab in treating patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck cancers.

This is a single arm phase II study that will evaluate the combination of pembrolizumab, docetaxel, and cisplatin or carboplatin (PDC) as single treatment modality in patients with stage II-IVb (T2-4, any N, M0) squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal cavity/paranasal sinuses (PNS SCC).

Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) is typically associated with a high tumour mutation burden, with the majority caused by Ultraviolet (UV) exposure (Pickering et al., 2014). The use of this trial using neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab in patients with cSCC who will otherwise undergo highly morbid radical surgical resection has multiple potential advantages, including: Reduction in surgical and radiotherapy morbidity by reducing tumour burden and allowing the appropriate selection of patients to undergo post-operative radiotherapy; Provision of immediate information about pathological response and Access to tissue to provide insight into resistance mechanisms and identification of biomarkers of response. The Investigators hypothesized that the use of neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab could reduce tumour burden allowing appropriate selection of patients undergoing radical surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy.

This trial that is investigating a medication called duvelisib in combination with docetaxel for the treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) that has returned or spread outside the head and neck area. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: Duvelisib (PI3K inhibitor) Docetaxel chemotherapy
