Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

This study aims to assess the survival benefit from an early switch approach from sunitinib or pazopanib (10-12 weeks of 1st-line therapy) to nivolumab (anti-angiogenic to immunotherapy switch).

A first-in-human study using HKT288 in solid tumors, including epithelial ovarian cancer and renal cell carcinoma

This randomized phase II trial studies how well pazopanib hydrochloride with or without ascorbic acid work in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery. Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Ascorbic acid may help pazopanib hydrochloride stop tumor growth and improve treatment survival. Giving pazopanib hydrochloride and ascorbic acid may work better in treating patients with kidney cancer.

Patients with advanced or metastatic, gpNMB-expressing Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) of the lung who have failed a prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen will receive glembatumumab vedotin. Glembatumumab vedotin consists of an antibody (a type of human protein) attached to a drug called Monomethyl Auristatin E (MMAE) that can kill cancer cells. Glembatumumab vedotin is intended to work by specifically directing the drug to the cancer cell. It attaches to a molecule on the cancer cell called gpNMB, and then releases the MMAE inside the tumor cell, which in turn causes the cell to die. The purpose of this study is to see whether glembatumumab vedotin is effective in treating people who have advanced or metastatic squamous cell lung cancer that contains gpNMB, to examine how the body handles the drug and the side effects associated with glembatumumab vedotin.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OBV/PTV/r), with or without dasabuvir (DSV) coadministered with or without ribavirin (RBV) for 12 or 24 weeks in adult patients with genotype 1 or genotype 4 chronic HCV infection and treated early stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma with compensated cirrhosis.

This study will be looking at what dose of tremelimumab and olaparib is safe and effective in patients with persistent EOC (Epithelial Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma).

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose onalespib when given together with paclitaxel in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced). Onalespib works by blocking proper processing of proteins that are important for cancer growth. This results in inability of these proteins to work properly. Paclitaxel kills breast cancer cells by interfering with their ability to divide. Giving onalespib together with paclitaxel may be better than giving either one alone in treating patients with breast cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a drug called AMG 319 has an effect on a patient's own immune response to head and neck cancer squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). This study is specifically for patients who are having surgery to treat their HNSCC

This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well docetaxel and capecitabine work in treating patients with squamous cell (thin, flat cells) carcinoma of the head and neck that has come back or spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

Patients received intratumoral (IT) injections of NKTR-262 in 3-week cycles for up to 3 cycles; bempegaldesleukin with or without nivolumab was administered every 3 weeks (q3w), and treatment continued until unacceptable toxicity, death, or disease progression per RECIST 1.1. Based on Phase 1 results of the study, the decision was made not to start the Phase 2 part of the study and the study was terminated.
