Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of AMT2003 in cancer patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma. The primary endpoint is progression free survival rate at 18 weeks after registration

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stage III ovarian cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells.

Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignancy in the liver. Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a significant risk factor and may be associated with inferior outcome. According to the Danish national guidelines, ablation should be offered patients with early HCC (tumor < 3 cm) in a cirrhotic liver, who are not transplant candidates. However, the effect of size of the HCC tumor and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) as etiology are insufficiently investigated. Purposes Investigate association between HCC tumor size and survival after ablation. Investigate survival after ablation in patients with HCV-related HCC compared with HCC due to other etiologies. Methods This study is based on data from the Danish Liver and Bile Duct Cancer Database (DLGCD) and the Danish Database for Hepatitis B and C (DANHEP) and the laboratory database (DANVIR), which collectively include information on patient characteristics, tumor characteristic, laboratory results, and information regarding ablation, HCV status, and antiviral treatment, respectively. Perspectives Ablation has been widely used for decades, but studies investigating the effect of ablation for HCC in patients with HCV and size of HCC are lacking. This study will contribute considerably to the level of evidence and may impact both Danish and international guidelines for HCC treatment.

Development and validation of a model that predicts rENE from radiological imaging using annotated / labeled scans by means of deep learning

The goal of this observational longitudinal study is to learn about circulating tumor Human Papilloma Virus-DNA (ctHPV-DNA) as a biomarker for HPV positive oropharyngeal cancer and cancer of unknown primary of the head and neck. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can ctHPV-DNA be used for treatment evaluation in HPV positive oropharyngeal cancer and cancer of unknown primary of the head and neck? Can circulating HPV-DNA be used as a biomarker for recurrent disease during surveillance? Participants will be asked to leave plasma samples at diagnose, at the end of treatment and at every clinical follow-up. The patients are there own controls.

Multicenter German- Registry of Incidental Gallbladder Carcinoma combining clinical real-world data and comprehensive genomic profiling. The registry collects medical data from clinical observation and molecular data derived from archival tumor tissue samples but does not define any medical intervention nor does it evaluate the efficacy or safety of the treatment decision made by the investigator.

Across cancer types, immune checkpoint inhibitors have been shown to induce complete response, partial response, and stable disease after initial evidence of radiographic increase in tumor burden. Treatment beyond progression should be considered when the patient is stable (or improving) symptomatically and if tumor reassessment can be performed within a short period.

This is a phase 1b/2, open-label, multicenter trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, biologic activity, and preliminary efficacy of intratumoral SD-101 injections in combination with intravenous pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic melanoma or recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This study will be conducted in 2 phases. Phase 1 evaluates SD-101 given in combination with pembrolizumab in melanoma populations (anti-PD-1/L1 naïve and anti-PD-1/L1 experienced with progressive disease) in up to 4 Dose Escalation cohorts to identify a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) to be evaluated in up to 4 Dose Expansion cohorts in Phase 2. Phase 2 also includes up to 4 Dose Expansion cohorts of patients with HNSCC (anti-PD-1/L1 naïve and anti-PD-1/L1 experienced with progressive disease).

This is a French, nationwide, prospective, observational, multi-center study in participants diagnosed with advanced renal cell carcinoma, who start a new systemic therapy with nivolumab with or without ipilimumab for the first time and within the market authorization approval.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well erlotinib hydrochloride works in treating patients with bladder cancer undergoing surgery. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
