Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

PET/CT follow up for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma The following is a presentation of a prospective protocol, named PET/CT follow up for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (PET Follow), including patients who have completed radiotherapy treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic performance of 18F-fluorodeoxy-D-glucose (FDG) Positron Emission Tomography/ Computed Tomography (PET/CT) in patients with HNSCC after curative intended treatment.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma（NPC）is common malignant tumor in China. The incidence of NPC in most parts of the world and the country is less than 1/10 million, but the incidence rate in China's Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other southern provinces is as high as 33/10 million. Generally, there are more men than women, with a ratio of 2 ~ 3:1. In high incidence area, nasopharyngeal carcinoma has great harm to middle-aged and young people, and incidence rate and mortality rate increase significantly after 30 years old. 50~60 years old is the highest peak. More than 70% of patients were in advanced stage at the first diagnosis. At present, the main treatment for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma is platinum based neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. However, recurrence and distant metastasis after standard treatment are the main causes of failure. About 40% of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma have recurrence and distant metastasis after receiving standard treatment. Therefore, the investigators intend to further explore the improvement of local control and survival rate of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

This study is conducted in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study includes three arms: A, B, and C. Arm A will receive HLX07 combination therapy with HLX10 and HLX04 as first line treatment. Arm B will receive HLX07 combination therapy with lenvatinib as second line treatment. Arm C will receive HLX07 monotherapy as third-line or above treatment. All of eligible patients will receive study drug treatment until loss of clinical benefit, unacceptable toxicity, death, withdrawal of informed consent (whichever occurs first, HLX10 treatment up to 2 years).

The purpose of this Phase II, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD-1 inhibitor Plus GP chemotherapy as Neoadjuvant Therapy in the Treatment of Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.

The aim of this single center, single arm and prospective study is to explore the safety and efficacy of tumor antigen-pulsed DC vaccine( OCDC and NeoDC) for postoperative adjuvant treatment of ESCC

This study is to investigate retrospectively the effects of combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors anti-programmed death-1 antibody (PD-1 antibody) and radiotherapy for recurrent, metastatic and persistent advanced cervical carcinomas. Patients may or may not accept PD-1 antibody as maintenance therapy. Patients are followed up and the survival outcomes are evaluated. The primary endpoint are objective remission rate. The secondary endpoints are progression-free survival, overall survival and severe adverse events.

PRO-RCC is a nationwide long-term cohort for the collection of real-world clinical data, patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient reported experience measures (PREMs) that provides an infrastructure for observational research and (randomized) interventional studies with the TwiCs (Trial within cohorts) design.

Tumor-related inflammation is one of the hallmarks of cancers in general. Innate immunity specifically is a common denominator which is involved in the pathogenesis of both thyroid carcinoma and colon carcinoma. To improve the patient's outcome and identify novel therapeutic targets, one needs a deeper understanding of the tumor-induced changes in the bone marrow myeloid progenitor cells. Furthermore, treatment of these cells by nanoparticles or other agents that induce a program of 'trained immunity' may be a novel way to re-educate myeloid cells and their bone marrow progenitors in thyroid carcinoma patients. Lastly, the investigators expect that this approach could be effective also in other cancers of which colon carcinoma is here proposed as an additional model. The investigators hypothesize that by exposing myeloid cells or their progenitors to various agents that induce trained immunity (e.g. high-density-lipoprotein-methylene diphosphonate nanoparticles, recombinant and synthetic cytokines), these immune cells will undergo functional reprogramming to induce a tumor-suppressive phenotype. In the future, this could be explored as a novel immunotherapy for tumors that are refractory to conventional treatment.

To determine if Carevive software, which monitors treatment-related toxicities and then generates self-care management plans for these symptoms, will be feasible to implement among patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Additionally for collection of preliminary data on treatment-related toxicities, quality of life, distress level, and drug adherence.

The aim of this study is to identify biomarkers of disease recurrence and prognosis to optimize patient selection for treatment with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and through animal models to explore different treatment strategies for peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM).
