Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

This is a First in Human (FIH) Phase I/II, multinational, multicenter, open-label study of HB-201 single vector therapy and HB-201 & HB-202 two-vector therapy in patients with HPV 16+ confirmed cancers comprising two parts: Phase I Dose Escalation and Phase II Dose Expansion.

This is a multicenter, open-label, paired control study to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of allogeneic NK cells combined with targeted drug in the treatment for advanced HCC.

This is an open label investigator initiated Phase Ib study of combination pembrolizumab (Keytruda), 200mg IV 3 weekly (Q3W) with 50mg oral cyclophosphamide daily (OD) in metastatic renal cell carcinoma patients. 21 patients will be recruited within the United Kingdom (UK) will to examine the efficacy of the combination for up to 35 administrations (2 years). This study will be conducted in compliance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and all relevant regulations.

This phase I trial studies the sides effects and best dose of pembrolizumab in treating participants with thymoma or thymic cancer that cannot be 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.

Randomized phase II study of immune stimulation with Pembrolizumab and radiotherapy in second line therapy of metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Primary Objective: To confirm the safety and feasibility of canakinumab and spartalizumab (PDR-001) administered using a standard dose / schedule in the neo-adjuvant setting in renal cell carcinoma Secondary Objectives: To assess the immune response to combination canakinumab and spartalizumab To assess anti-tumor activity as measured by pathologic downstaging

This phase II trial studies whether adding radium-223 dichloride to the usual treatment, cabozantinib, improves outcomes in patients with renal cell cancer that has spread to the bone. Radioactive drugs such as radium-223 dichloride may directly target radiation to cancer cells and minimize harm to normal cells. Cabozantinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving radium-223 dichloride and cabozantinib may help lessen the pain and symptoms from renal cell cancer that has spread to the bone, compared to cabozantinib alone.

Phase Ib trial including investigating the combination of nab-paclitaxel and cisplatin in patients diagnosed with peritoneal carcinomatosis related to pancreatic, oeso-gastric, ovarian cancer or primitive peritoneal mesothelioma.

Although the results obtained from ECOG E5194 cohort 1 (criteria: mammographically detected low- or intermediate-grade DCIS, measuring less than 2.5 cm with margins ≥ 3 mm) and RTOG 9804 trial (the same enrolled clinicopathological features to cohort 1 of ECOG E5194 trial) demonstrated that the 7-year ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) ranged from 5.6% to 10.5% for low-risk ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) patients, the aforementioned two studies included a proportional patients who had young age and negative estrogen receptor (ER) status tumor. Previous studies and our studies revealed that age < 40 years and ER-negative status in tumor were independent prognostic factor for recurrence of breast DCIS irrespective of tumor characteristics. The UK/ANZ randomized trial, enrolling high-risk and low-risk clinicopathologic features of DCIS, demonstrated that a benefit of tamoxifen in terms of reducing the IBTR is observed in the BCS alone group but not found in the BCS plus RT group. A recent published randomized trial showed that tamoxifen at the dose of 5 mg/day for 3 years. Based on the aforementioned results, we hypothesized that the administration of tamoxifen is not inferior than the prescription of RT in terms of reducing the IBTR for DCIS patients who had age more than 40 years, the pathological features meeting the ECOG E5194 cohort 1 criteria, and positive ER status in tumors. To approve the hypothesis, we will design a randomized non-inferiority trial to assess whether the effect of administration of tamoxfien (5 mg per day) for 10 years following BCS is not inferior in terms of reducing IBTR when comparing RT following BCS for patients who had low-risk clinicopathologic features (age more than 40 years and ECOG E5194 cohort 1 criteria) and positive-ER status of breast DCIS.

This phase II trial studies the side effects of ONC201 and paclitaxel and how well they work in treating patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back (recurrent), or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). ONC201 is the first in its class of drugs that antagonize some specific cell receptors on cancer cells, leading to their destruction. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ONC201 and paclitaxel may work better in treating patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer compared to paclitaxel alone.
