Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

This clinical trial is looking at a combination of drugs called vemurafenib and cobimetinib. Vemurafenib is approved as standard of care for adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Cobimetinib is approved as standard of care in combination with vemurafenib for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Cobimetinib and vemurafenib work in patients with these types of cancers which have certain changes in the cancer cells called BRAF V600 mutation-positive. Investigators now wish to find out if it will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which are also BRAF V600 mutation-positive. If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.

The goal of this prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab in combination with axitinib for postoperative adjuvant therapy for non-clear renal cell carcinoma with high-risk recurrence factors.

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy based of cisplatin with sintilimab as first-line therapy for patients with advanced oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma.

This is an open-label, single-arm, phase II clinical trial to explore the efficacy and safety of de-escalation of postoperative radiotherapy in locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with pathological complete response/major pathological response to neoadjuvant therapy. The eligible patients are scheduled to administered postoperative radiotherapy, PTV 50Gy/25F, instead of the standard dose of 60Gy. The overall primary study hypothesis is that reducing the dose of postoperative radiotherapy in the specific population does not affect DFS but significantly reduces treatment related adverse events.

This study aims to explore a new, more effective and tolerable treatment regimen for patients with advanced recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Specifically, we plan to conduct a phase III randomized controlled clinical trial based on the standard treatment of "GP + PD-1 mAb", replacing cisplatin with apatinib to achieve "platinum-free" therapy and reduce toxicity. In addition, we will investigate the efficacy of using apatinib in combination with PD-1 mAb compared to PD-1 mAb monotherapy to further improve treatment outcomes. The ultimate goal is to provide a new and reliable treatment modality for patients with advanced recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma and guide clinical practice.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common cancer worldwide and a leading cause of cancer-related death. The majority of participants first presenting with HCC have advanced unresectable or metastatic disease. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the optimized dose, adverse events, and efficacy of livmoniplimab in combination with budigalimab. Livmoniplimab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of HCC. There are 3 treatment arms in this study and participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio. Participants will either receive livmoniplimab (at different doses) in combination with budigalimab (another investigational drug), lenvatinib, or sorafenib. Approximately 120 adult participants will be enrolled in the study across 60 sites worldwide. In arm 1 (control), participants will receive the investigator's choice: lenvatinib as an oral capsule or sorafenib as an oral tablet, once daily. In arm 2, participants will receive intravenously (IV) infused livmoniplimab (dose A) in combination with IV infused budigalimab, every 3 weeks. In arm 3, participants will receive intravenously (IV) infused livmoniplimab (dose B) in combination with IV infused budigalimab, every 3 weeks. The estimated duration of the study is up to 2 years There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic and may require frequent medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires, and scans.

This research is being done to study the safety and feasibility of implanting and retrieving a microdevice that releases microdoses of 19 specific drugs or drug combinations as a possible tool to evaluate the effectiveness of several cancer drugs against metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The name of the intervention(s) involved in this study are: Implantable Microdevice (IMD) Surgery (excision of tumor) Drugs used in this study will only include drugs already used as standard of care for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC)

This study is designed to see if we can lower the chance of side effects from radiation in patients with breast, kidney, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma that has spread to the brain and who are also being treated with immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. This study will compare the usual care treatment of single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) given on one day versus fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS), which is a lower dose of radiation given over a few days to determine if FSRS is better or worse at reducing side effects than usual care treatment.

To find a recommended dose of donated NK cells that can be given with lymphodepleting chemotherapy to patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, mesothelioma, or osteosarcoma. The effects of this therapy will also be studied.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mRNA vaccine for HBV-positive Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
