Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

To learn if adding pembrolizumab to mitotane can help to control ACC. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

Neuroendocrine neoplams (NENs) are uncommon, but with a significant increasing incidence and prevalence with advances in diagnostic techniques. NENs can originate from various parts of the body and are highly heterogeneous. Neuroendocrine tumors (NET), dividing into G1, G2, G3, are well-differentiated types with slow growth and neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) are poorly-differentiated with high malignancy. Pancreatic carcinoma is one of the malignant neoplasms with a very high mortality rate. For NET G3, NEC and pancreatic, there are limited treatment options especially for those who progressed on standard chemotherapy. Surufatinib is a novel multi-targeted kinase inhibitor on VEGFR-1, 2, 3, FGFR1, and CSF1R, which has required the China NMPA approval on unresectable NETs (G1&G2). The pivital phase III clinical trial on NEC is ongoing. Sintilimab is a PD-1 inhibitor with the approval on gastric cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and Hodgkin lymphoma. Clinical evidence has shown the anti-tumor activity of surufatinib in combination with PD-1 inhibitor in solid tumors, including NEN, small-cell lung cancer, G/GEJ cancer, etc. The current study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of surufatinib in combination with sintilimab in the treatment of NET G3, NEC and pancreatic carcinoma, in order to provide more treatment options for the patients who failed standard chemotherapy.

This is a Phase I/II, open-label, non-randomized, multicenter study to explore safety, tolerability and antitumor activity of NMS-01940153E as single agent in adult patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) previously treated with systemic therapy. The Phase I portion is designed as a dose-escalation study in sequential cohorts of patients aimed to obtain the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) that is defined based on the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed in the first cycle of treatment. The Phase II portion is designed as a two-stage study with an interim analysis for futility and stopping criteria for unacceptable toxicity to assess the antitumor activity of NMS-01940153E in adult patients with unresectable HCC previously treated with systemic therapy measured as objective response rate.

China with high incidence of esophageal cancer, the number of new cases and deaths account for about 50% of the world every year. In the past few decades, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other treatments were continuously improved, however, the mortality of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients was not significantly decreased. For patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, direct surgery is not effective. It is difficult to achieve radical resection by surgery merely, and even if many patients receive surgery, they may eventually have tumor recurrence and poor survival rate. Therefore, it is necessary to explore effective perioperative neoadjuvant treatment to reduce the risk of postoperative recurrence and improve the postoperative survival rate of patients. According to the reports, the expression of PD-L1 in esophageal cancer was about 41.4%. Therefore, PD-1/ PD-L1 immunocheckpoint inhibitor may become a new method for the treatment of esophageal cancer. Preliminary clinical results showed that immunotherapy combined with chemoradiotherapy provided a synergies antitumor effect. Multiple clinical results showed that serplulimab provided higher overall response rate for advanced esophageal cancer. However, in patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, the efficacy of serplulimab combined with chemotherapy for sequential radical surgery is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of silulimab combined with chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant therapy of resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

The phase I/II, double-blind, randomized study will investigate the efficacy and safety of TACE/TAE treatment with T-ACE Oil in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

Adding PD-1 inhibitors to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy has shown promising results in locally advanced resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, there is a need to explore safer and more effective treatment doses and schedules. This is an open labeled, prospective, single-arm phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the short course neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy plus Toripalimab for locally advanced resectble ESCC.

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Seleno-L Methionine (SLM) when combined with the standard dose and schedule of Axitinib and Pembrolizumab in patients who have locally advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).

This phase II Lung-MAP treatment trial tests whether carboplatin and pemetrexed with or without selpercatinib works to shrink tumors in patients with RET fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or has not responded to previous RET directed therapy. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and pemetrexed, 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. Selpercatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving selpercatinib in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed may help lower the chance of the cancer growing and spreading.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of avelumab in combination with other anti-tumor agents as a maintenance treatment in participants with bladder cancer.

This is a single-arm, open label, multi-center Phase 1 clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous memory lymphocyte therapy (NewishT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma at high risk of recurrence after radical resection.
