Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The primary objective is to determine if mutation load underlies sensitivity to pembrolizumab alone and in combination with chemotherapy. This will be a 3-arm, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized biomarker trial in patients with advanced, treatment-naive NSCLC. Patients will receive 1 of 3 possible cohorts as per investigator's discretion. Patients with non-squamous histology may receive any of the 3 cohorts; patients with squamous histology may receive either cohorts 1 and 2.

This phase II trial studies how well pemetrexed disodium works in treating patients with previously treated urothelial cancer that has spread from the primary site (place where it started) to other places in the body. Pemetrexed disodium may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Patients enrolled in this study have been diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and are scheduled to have a procedure called drug-eluting bead trans-arterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE). During the DEB-TACE procedure, very small beads are mixed in with a chemotherapy drug, doxorubicin, and delivered to the tumor through an arterial catheter. The DEB-TACE procedure allows the treatment to be delivered directly into the liver. It also causes arterial embolization, the process in which a blood vessel is blocked. Treatment of HCC using DEB-TACE may help delay tumor progression and can downstage (decrease the size) the cancer in order to meet the criteria which may allow patients to become candidates for liver transplantation. The purpose of this study is to compare tumor response and medical outcomes for patients who undergo DEB-TACE with standard endhole catheter versus Surefire® Infusion System.

This Phase III, open-label, randomized, multicenter study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant treatment with atezolizumab compared with observation in participants with muscle-invasive UC who are at high risk for recurrence following resection. Eligible participants were randomized by a 1:1 ratio into atezolizumab group or control group.

This is a two arm, open label, multi-center, Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Melphalan/HDS in patients with unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) or Intra Hepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) confined to the liver.

This is a prospective, multicenter study that will be conducted at up to 40 centers in the United States and Outside United States (OUS). Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either ONCO-DOX or sorafenib treatment. This study will evaluate the study participants' outcomes (medical condition) after being treated with ONCO-DOX and compare it to those treated with sorafenib alone.

Esophageal cancer is a common malignant disease worldwide especially in china. Though esophagectomy and definitive chemoradiotherapy are standard treatments, disease relapses in many patients and the prognosis of metastatic ESCC is still poor. For patients with unresectable or metastatic ESCC, chemotherapy is an important treatment alone or with radiotherapy. Taxane, platinum, and fluoropyrimidine have been reported effective in ESCC and is used as first-line treatment of ESCC. As for 2nd-line treatment, both irinotecan and taxane had been recommended based on data from clinical trials which were most enrolled esophageal or esophageal-gastric junction adenocarcinoma and with only small sample size. Therefore, it is still urgently needed to explore effective 2nd-line treatment for ESCC. Apatinib, also known as YN968D1, is an orally antiangiogenic agents. Preclinical and clinical data had shown that it is effective in the treatment of a variety of solid tumors including esophageal cancer. It had been approved as a 3rd-line treatment for patients with advanced gastric cancer by state FDA of China in 2014. And the safety data showed that hemorrhage is rare and non-fetal which is different from bevacizumab. Therefore, the investigators initialize this phase II study to explore the efficacy and safety of irinotecan and apatinib combination treatment in unresectable or metastatic ESCC patients who failed in 1st-line chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy.

This randomized phase II/III compares rilotumumab when given together with erlotinib hydrochloride against erlotinib hydrochloride alone in treating patients with stage IV squamous cell lung cancer that has come back after previous treatment. This is a sub-study that includes all screened patients positive for the met proto-oncogene (MET)/hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) biomarker. HGF can interact with MET and can cause tumor cells to grow more quickly. Rilotumumab may decrease the activity of HGF and may be able to shrink tumors. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving rilotumumab with erlotinib hydrochloride works better than erlotinib hydrochloride alone (standard treatment) in treating squamous cell lung cancer.

This study will evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD), safety, antitumor activity, and PK of eFT508 in female subjects who have pathologically documented, radiographically measurable, metastatic or locally advanced and unresectable TNBC and have received prior cancer therapy regimen for metastatic disease, and in male and female subjects who have histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced HCC not amenable to surgical resection and have failed systemic therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and determine the maximum tolerated dose of INCB062079 in subjects with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and other malignancies.
