Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The treatment of distant metastasis is a key challenge for nasopharyngeal carcinoma because of poor outcomes, among which, chemotherapy is the cornerstone. However, many studies reported the use of different chemotherapy regimens to prolong the survival of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma, while few of them focused on how to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy or improve the life quality of patients. Blocking the immune checkpoint is one of the effective strategies of tumor immunotherapy. Thus, we sought to find a proper chemotherapy regimen combined with PD-1 antibody JS001.

This phase II trial investigates how well oral cryotherapy plus acupressure and acupuncture compared with oral cryotherapy alone work in decreasing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with gastrointestinal cancer who are receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. Acupressure is the application of pressure or localized massage to specific sites on the body to control symptoms such as pain or nausea. Acupuncture is the technique of inserting thin needles through the skin at specific points on the body to control pain and other symptoms. Cryotherapy uses cold temperature such as oral ice chips to prevent abnormally increased pain sensation. Giving oral cryotherapy with acupressure and acupuncture may work better in decreasing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy from oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in patients with gastrointestinal cancer compared to oral cryotherapy alone.

This study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the induction chemotherapy + concurrent chemoradiotherapy（CCRT）combined with toripalimab and endostar treatment, in comparison with the induction chemotherapy + concurrent chemoradiotherapy（CCRT）, in treating locally advanced high-risk nasopharyngeal carcinoma

This is a pilot study with a single arm in a single center assessing safety and efficacy of combination therapy of TACE and ablation and durvalumab. This study will be conducted in selected patients with intermediate stage HCC not amenable to curative therapy.

The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Toripalimab Injection in combination with chemotherapy compared to placebo in combination with chemotherapy in subjects with PD-L1-positive unresectable locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who have received no previous systemic therapy.

This study investigates a device that closely monitors vital signs, as well as a smartphone application (app) that allows patients to respond to different questions and tests that will monitor for new symptoms. This study may help researchers understand if wearing the device is a better tool than standard vital sign assessment tools done only while at the doctor's office or hospital, and if using the smartphone app is a better tool than standard assessment tools used while in the doctor's office or hospital.

The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant immune combined chemotherapy or radiochemotherapy compared with traditional neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy in patients with locally advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

This is an open label, multi-center, phase I/II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-1701 in combination with famitinib in subjects with recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma(R/M NPC).

In patients with recurrent or metastatic renal cell carcinoma, a preliminary evaluation of the safety and efficacy of sintilimab combined with axitinib in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma was conducted.Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR) and disease remission rate (ORR) were evaluated.

This exploratory study investigates how an imaging technique called 68Ga-FAPi-46 PET/CT can determine where and to which degree the FAPI tracer (68Ga-FAPi-46) accumulates in normal and cancer tissues in patients with cancer. Because some cancers take up 68Ga-FAPi-46 it can be seen with PET. FAP stands for Fibroblast Activation Protein. FAP is produced by cells that surround tumors (cancer associated fibroblasts). The function of FAP is not well understood but imaging studies have shown that FAP can be detected with FAPI PET/CT. Imaging FAP with FAPI PET/CT may in the future provide additional information about various cancers.
