Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

This is a first-in-human, Phase 1, open label, multicenter, multiple dose, dose escalation and dose expansion study intended to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and potential clinical benefit of PF-07257876, a CD47-PD-L1 bispecific antibody, in participants with selected advanced or metastatic tumors for whom no standard therapy is available. The study contains 2 parts, single agent Dose Escalation (Part 1) to determine the recommended dose of PF-07257876, followed by Dose Expansion (Part 2) in selected tumor types at the recommended dose.

In patients with locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), due to the large tumor burden and neck lymph node metastasis, comprehensive treatment is recommended, including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and others. Pre-operative inductive therapy can reduce tumor volume, increase organ retention rate, and reduce distant metastasis rate. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is over-expressed and associated with disease invasion and poor prognosis. The use of targeted therapy against VEGF can not only inhibit tumor neovascularization, but also make the effectiveness of chemotherapeutic agents. VEGF and VEGFR are closely related to immune escape. Tumor growth requires new blood vessels to supply nutrients and oxygen, and VEGF can stimulate neovascularization. However, tumor neovascularization is often abnormal and distorted, which prevents immune active substances from reaching the tumor site. After tumor hypoxia, high expression of VEGF will induce tumor cells to express programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1), which further leads to immune escape. Targeted drugs against angiogenesis can relieve immunosuppression to a certain extent, and theoretically have a synergistic effect with anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. The innovation of this study is the combination of immune checkpoint inhibitor, Camrelizumab, and targeted drug against VEGFR, Apatinib, as an inductive therapy to treat the patients with locally advanced OSCC, followed with radical surgery and post-operative radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy, the major pathologic response and safety will be evaluated as the primary surrogate endpoints, the 2-year survival rate and local recurrence rate will be the second endpoints.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant cemiplimab as measured by Pathologic complete response (pCR) rate per independent central pathology review. The secondary objectives of the study are: To evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant cemiplimab on measures of disease response, including: Major pathologic response (mPR) rate per independent central pathology review pCR rate and mPR rate per local pathology review ORR prior to surgery, according to local assessment using RECIST 1.1 To evaluate the efficacy of neoadjuvant cemiplimab on event free survival (EFS), disease free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) To evaluate the safety profile of neoadjuvant cemiplimab To assess change in surgical plan (ablative and reconstructive procedures) from the screening period to definitive surgery, both according to investigator review and independent surgical expert review To assess change in post-surgical management plan (radiation, chemoradiation, or observation) from the screening period to post-surgery pathology review, both according to investigator review and independent surgical expert review

Phase III Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of CS1001 or Placebo in Combination with FP as First-Line Therapy in Subjects with Unresectable Locally Advanced, Recurrent or Metastatic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

This study examines the safety and efficacy of ribociclib (CDK 4/6 inhibitors) and spartalizumab (anti-PD1) in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC).

The primary purpose of this study is to find the recommended dose of LGK974 as a single agent and in combination with PDR001 that can be safely given to adult patients with selected solid malignancies that have progressed despite standard therapy or for which no effective standard therapy exists

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving the new drug, Tarceva® (OSI-774), in combination with Platinol® (cisplatin) and Taxotere® (docetaxel) is effective in the treatment of metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.

This study will examine the combination of pembrolizumab and tadalafil for safety and efficacy in advanced head and neck cancer.

This trial will study ladiratuzumab vedotin (LV) alone and with pembrolizumab to find out if it works to treat different types of solid tumors. It will also find out what side effects may occur. A side effect is anything the drug does besides treating cancer.

To determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TBio-6517 when administered by direct injection into tumor(s) or intravenously and when combined with pembrolizumab in patients with solid tumors (RIVAL-01).
