Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The prognosis of ESCC is poor with a five-year overall survival rate of 10 to 30 %. Randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that TMT, consisted of neoadjuvant concurrent CCRT and radical esophagectomy, improves the overall survival for patients with resectable locally advanced disease. As a consequence, it is mandatory to develop new pharmacotherapeutic regimen for TMT. In our previous prospective studies, we found higher levels of serum immune-related biomarkers, VEGF-A, TGF-β1, and soluble PD-L1, before neoadjuvant CCRT were independent associated with inferior overall survival and disease-free survival for locally advanced ESCC treated with neoadjuvant CCRT plus radical esophagectomy. In the present clinical trial, we plan to investigate whether incorporation of tiragolumab (Anti-TIGIT) and atezolizumab (Anti-PD-L1) into standard TMT will be safe while improve the pathological complete response rate. By the present research, we expect to develop a new TMT regimen for this poor prognostic disease.

The incidence and mortality of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma are at the forefront in China.Most part of patients are elderly. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Most elderly patients cannot tolerate concurrent chemotherapy because of complications and other reasons. Immunotherapy has definite efficacy and low toxicity in advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and the results combined with radiotherapy have also been preliminarily reported. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

This study used a randomized, controlled, double-blind, multicenter Phase III clinical design with overall survival (OS) as the primary endpoint. About 165 patients with advanced biliary carcinoma were enrolled and randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group in a 2:1 ratio to receive TQB3454 tablets or the placebo, respectively, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TQB3454 tablets in the treatment of advanced biliary carcinoma.

This clinical trial will compare 1-year outcomes in patients with hypoalbuminemia and a new diagnosis of small, early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are candidates for both 90-Yittrium Therasphere transarterial radioembolization (90Y) and microwave ablation (MWA). The study will determine whether treatment with 90Y lowers the risk of disease progression within the first year after diagnosis. Participants will be randomized to receive either first cycle 90Y or MWA and then proceed with standard of care.

This study is the first to compare the efficacy and safety of recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection via hepatic artery infusion combined with TACE-based combination therapy for the treatment of patients with stage IIIa primary hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein carcinoma thrombosis, providing a safe and reliable treatment method for the clinical treatment of this group of patients, and also providing a reference and basis for the treatment of other tumors with this new treatment model.

To conduct prospective studies to confirm the value of circulating tumor DNA and its abnormal methylation in longitudinal monitoring of patients undergoing kidney cancer surgery.

Based on the evidence summarized in the introduction, the clinician hypothesize that the detection of the presence and expression of HPV-DNA, certain miRNAs, and a certain mutational profile in the tissues and biological fluids of these patients, may have important prognostic and diagnostic value not only in HPV-related OPSCCs but also in HPV+ occult T. Accordingly, this study aims to aim to better characterize their potential as biomarkers and to detect the possibility of their their use to implement the sensitivity and specificity of radiological methodologies (PET-CT and MRI), already in use in clinical practice, for monitoring disease progression in this specific subgroup. Finally, by using the collected material to generate organoids and Patient Derived Xenograft (PDX), the study also aims to identify possible new molecular drugs, which could solve the problem of resistance to radiochemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to compare concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) alone with induction chemotherapy (gemcitabine+cisplatin) plus CCRT in patients with low-risk locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Lenvatinib Plus Tislelizumab for Locally Advanced Unresectable or Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Hepatitis B Virus Infection and Biomarker Analyses.

This phase I/II trial tests the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab with sirolimus and prednisone for the treatment of skin (cutaneous) cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) in kidney transplant recipients. Immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sirolimus and prednisone are immunosuppressants that are given to keep the body from rejecting the transplanted kidney. Giving nivolumab and ipilimumab in combination with sirolimus and prednisone may kill more cancer cells, while also keeping the transplanted kidney healthy, in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous cancer who have received a kidney transplant.
