Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

This is a randomized, open-label, prospective, pilot phase I/II study with focus on translational research and on the evaluation of the biological changes that are observed in sequential tumor tissue acquisition in patients with newly diagnosed advanced (stage IV) oral cavity SCC. Patients are treated with Durvalumab (arm A) or Durvalumab + Tremelimumab (arm B) after biopsy-confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced resectable SCCHN of the oral cavity. After surgery, the standard of care treatment is radiotherapy, and, depending on risk assessment concurrent cisplatin. Patients will be treated with Durvalumab (arm A) or Durvalumab and Tremelimumab (arm B) during six additional cycles, starting from day one of the postoperative radiotherapy.

This is a single-arm Phase II study of adjuvant radiation for locally advanced p16+ oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. The main purpose of this research is to determine the likelihood of cancer growing back in the throat or in the neck two years after completion of radiation if lower doses of radiation are used to a smaller area of the head and neck region than is currently used in standard of care.

This study investigates the uptake of the radiopharmaceutical 68-GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 in brain metastasis using PET/CT imaging. Patients with HER2-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer will be included and the uptake in their lesions will be compared. Optional 68-GaNOTA-Anti-HER2 VHH1 scans may be performed during or after treatment, at time points 12±6 weeks and 24±9 weeks after the first scan.

Develop an intelligent system based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound and clinical information to help doctors automatically obtain ablation parameters (ablation needle number, ablation needle type, ablation time,ablation power) when preparing to use microwave ablation to treat hepatocellular carcinoma

This clinical trial examines the integration of cancer genetic testing in various ethnic populations. Studying individuals and families at risk of cancer may help identify cancer genes and other persons at risk. The information from this study may provide an opportunity for cancer risk stratification and individualized screening in these ethnic populations.

Consecutive patients with HCC who should undergo to locoregional treatments (ablation or trans-arterial chemoembolization) according to international guidelines will be enrolled. atients will undergo CEUS and SWE before and after 24 hours from the procedure as per clinical practice in our center. Subsequently, the patients will continue the normal follow-up which includes control computed tomography/magnetic resonance one month after treatment and subsequently every three months.

No adjuvant treatment has been established for patients who remain at high risk for recurrence after neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus surgery and incidental pathologic lymph node metastasis following initial surgery for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Controversy still exists regarding the role of adjuvant immunotherapy for ESCC patients who do not achieve pCR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus surgery and clinical T1-2 N0 patients with incidental pathologic lymph node metastasis following initial surgery. To investigate the outcomes of adjuvant Sintilimab in patients with locally advanced ESCC, we initiated this randomized controlled trial (RCT).

This is a prospective, phase II, non-randomized clinical imaging trial. Ga68-FAPI-46 is a novel radiotracer used in PET/CT imaging, targeting a protein of the tumor microenvironment called FAP (Fibroblast activation protein). The aim of the study is to assess the accuracy of Ga68-FAPI-46 PET/CT for preoperative assessment of peritoneal carcinomatosis in colorectal and ovarian cancer.

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI/MRI) has been described in recent literature as a highly sensitive and specific modality for the detection of peritoneal metastases PM. It has been demonstrated to be superior to CT for patients with known peritoneal disease from colorectal and gynaecological malignancies as a staging tool for cytoreductive surgery. It was also demonstrated to be superior for the detection of PM for gastric cancer patients otherwise considered with a resectable tumor. However, the literature is scarce on the role of DWI/MRI in the detection of peritoneal recurrence for patients with high-risk features, either colorectal cancer (CRC) or appendiceal neoplasms (AN). The aim of this study is to prospectively assess the added value of whole-body DWI/MRI (WB-DWI/MRI) to CT and diagnostic laparoscopy for detection of PM in the follow-up of patients presenting with CRC or AN and high-risk features for peritoneal recurrence and evaluate how it correlates with intraoperative findings.
