Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

Patients with recurrent or metastatic uterine cervical squamous carcinoma have very poor prognosis. For eligible patients, radiotherapy remains the choice, which has the most effective impact on the survival periods. On the hand, anti-angiogenic therapy has been proved to be promising treatment for recurrent or advanced cervical carcinomas. This study aims to discover the objective response of combination therapy with nimotuzumab (an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] IgG1 humanized monoclonal antibody) and radiotherapy in recurrent or metastatic uterine cervical squamous carcinoma in a single-arm, open, phase 2 clinical trial. The primary endpoint is the objective response rate evaluated by imaging methods. The second endpoints are the progression-free survival and overall survival. The treatment toxicity is regarded as one the second endpoint.

A Phase 2 Study of Evorpacept (ALX148) in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Patients With Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to look at the efficacy and safety of sintilimab in combination with carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel in patients with oral cavity or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma who are about to undergo surgery. Monoclonal antibodies, such as sintilimab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving sintilimab, carboplatin, and nab-paclitaxel may work better in treating patients with oral cavity and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

The investigators will conduct a prospective, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and feasibility of neoadjuvant therapy with anti-PD-L1 antibody (SHR-1316, Hengrui Medicine) in patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

This phase III ALCHEMIST trial tests the addition of pembrolizumab to usual chemotherapy for the treatment of stage IIA, IIB, IIIA or IIIB non-small cell lung cancer that has been removed by surgery. 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. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cisplatin, pemetrexed, carboplatin, gemcitabine hydrochloride, and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving pembrolizumab with usual chemotherapy may help increase survival times in patients with stage IIA, IIB, IIIA or IIIB non-small cell lung cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and early clinical activity of INCB099280 in participants with select solid tumors

A multicentre, open-label, non-randomized, phase Ib neoadjuvant study of intravenous NG-641, as monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab, in patients with surgically resectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy followed by surgery is the standard treatment for local advanced esophageal cancer (EC). It had been demonstrated that patients who achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant treatment had better prognosis. However, the pCR rate were about only 5-10% in neoadjuvant chemotherapy and 20-40% in neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy. PD-1 antibody based immunotherapy alone as second-line treatment or combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment had been proved that could prolong overall survival of EC patients. And a recent phase 3 clinical trial CheckMate 577 reported that, as adjuvant treatment, nivolumab could improve disease-free survival in EC and esophageal-gastric junction cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab, an anti-PD-1 antibody, combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin as neoadjuvant treatment in local advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We hope this combining treatment would increase the pCR rate of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and improve survival of patients, and at the menatime avoid the adverse events of neoadjuvant radiotherapy. This study will provide valuable information for further clinical trials of both Toripalimab and other immune checkpoint inhibition agents in treatment of esophageal cancer.

In this study, adults with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) will be treated with TAK-676 and pembrolizumab following radiotherapy. The main aims of this study are to check if people are improving after treatment with TAK-676, getting side effects from these combined treatments, and how much TAK-676 people with these cancers can receive without getting unacceptable side effects from it. Participants will receive radiotherapy, then at least 40 hours later will receive pembrolizumab followed by TAK-676 slowly through a vein (infusion). Participants will receive an infusion of pembrolizumab at the same dose every 3 weeks. Different small groups of participants will receive lower to higher doses of TAK-676 on specific days of a 21-day cycle. This study will be happening at sites in North America.

This trial is main evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of Chinese patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
