Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

This clinical trial will assess whether or not blood based biomarker testing can be used to personalize cancer treatment for patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer.

This is a randomized, open-label study to compare how well LBL-007 works in combination with tislelizumab and chemotherapy versus tislelizumab and chemotherapy when given as the first-line treatment in participants with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

The purpose of this phase 0 Window of Opportunity study is to have subjects with Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) receive same dosage of Black Raspberry Extract between their cancer diagnosis and standard treatment (surgery). Tumor biopsies and research blood before and after the investigational treatment (Black Raspberry Extract lozenges) are collected for translational research. The investigational treatment is kept short to avoid delaying standard treatment.

The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of MRG003 versus cetuximab/methotrexate as second/third line of therapy in patients with RM-SCCHN who have previously failed PD-1 (L1) inhibitors and platinum-based therapy.

This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, triple blind, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of xevinapant with radiotherapy in older patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) of oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. Upon confirmation of eligibility, subjects will be enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to: Arm A: 3 cycles of xevinapant (200 mg/day from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) + intensive modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) followed by 3 cycles of xevinapant in monotherapy phase (200 mg/day from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) Arm B: 3 cycles of placebo (from Day 1 to 14, per cycle) + IMRT followed by 3 cycles of placebo in monotherapy phase (from Day 1 to 14, per cycle). Patients will be stratified by institution, disease location/p16 status (p16 positive oropharyngeal cancer, versus others), G8 score. Three strata for the G8 will be used (>14, versus 11-14 versus <11). Patients will undergo imaging in week 20 and upon clinical suspicion of progression/recurrence. Clinical examination will take place every 12 weeks in the first 3 years.

The guidelines for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma currently recommend surgery / radiotherapy / chemotherapy / targeted therapy. However, the median PFS of patients with high risk factors after comprehensive treatment was about 17 months, and the 2-year PFS rate was about 40 %. The KEYNOTE-048 study showed that PD-1 monoclonal antibody alone or in combination with chemotherapy significantly improved survival and was safe for recurrent / metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Therefore, PD-1 monoclonal antibody has become the first-line treatment of metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. For locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, the existing studies on immunotherapy for neoadjuvant or concurrent chemoradiotherapy have not been clearly concluded. We previously used PD-1 monoclonal antibody for the maintenance treatment of patients after the first-line treatment of locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, without residual tumor, which showed a trend of prolonged survival. Therefore, this study intends to explore whether the maintenance treatment of PD-1 monoclonal antibody terripril can further improve the survival of patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with high risk factors and no residual tumor after first-line comprehensive treatment, and the safety is good.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the survival benefit of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 immunotherapy plus TP chemotherapy compared with TP chemotherapy or up-front surgery in resectable locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery or definitive CRT is the standard treatment for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), but the clinical outcomes are not satisfactory. Breathomics testing is a promising, non-invasive, simple method for detection and screening for ESCC. This observational study aimed to role of exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in predicting the efficacy and risk of recurrence in patients with locally advanced ESCC who received CRT.

This is a single-center clinical and exploratory study. Peripheral blood tumor antigen-specific T lymphocytes of patients with resectable esophageal cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy and patients with advanced or metastatic esophageal cancer treated with first-line chemotherapy were detected at different time points to predict ORR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy for resectable esophageal cancer and pCR rate, DFS after radical resection and first-line metastasis of advanced esophageal cancer Therapy combined with immunotherapy for ORR, PFS and OS.

This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase I, first-in-human trial to characterize the safety and clinical activity of an antigen-specific CD8+ T-cell product in patients with relapsed or refractory locally advanced or metastatic HPV-related oropharyngeal cancers. Patients must have received at least one prior standard treatment regimen consisting of systemic immunotherapy and/or chemotherapy. The investigative agent is an autologous adoptive T-cell product derived from the patient's endogenous cytolytic T cells that are directed toward HPV-16 E6/E7, HPV-18 E6/E7 antigens, and a tumor-associated antigen (Survivin) by ex vivo exposure to an artificial antigen presenting cell to which HLA-A2 antigen-peptides have been fit within the pocket of an MHC class 1 molecule. Patients must express HLA-A*0201.
