Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of ImmunoPulse IL-12® in treatment-refractory metastatic and unresectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). ImmunPulseIL12® is the combination of intrtumoral interleukin-12 gene (also known as tavokinogene telseplasmid [tavo]) and in vivo electroporation-mediated plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid [DNA] vaccine therapy (tavo-EP) administered using the OncoSec Medical System (OMS). Intratumoral tavo is a gene therapy approach to directly induce a pro-inflammatory response within a tumor to initiate and/or enhance anti-tumor immunity.

This is a neoadjuvant Phase 2a, open-label trial in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma who are undergoing a complete resection of the metastatic colorectal tumors in their liver.

This phase II study is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative chemoradiotherapy with gemcitabine (400mg/m2, weekly) for resectable pancreatic cancer.

This is a Phase 3b open-label, randomized, parallel-arm, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10 monthly intravesical administrations of maintenance therapy with valrubicin following induction with valrubicin as compared to induction with valrubicin only in subjects with CIS of the bladder. The randomization will be 1:1 and subjects will be stratified by tumor type (CIS plus papillary disease vs. CIS only) and time from last bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) failure (>1 year vs. <1 year).

GYNECO 02 hypothesis is that hysterectomy reduces the possibility of local or loco-regional relapse, especially in patient with a reduced metastatic risk and who received a local chemoradiation therapy with an increase of radiotherapy doses (45 grays).

The purpose of Part 1 of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of dalantercept in combination with axitinib in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to determine the recommended dose level of dalantercept in combination with axitinib for Part 2. The purpose of Part 2 of this study is to determine whether treatment with dalantercept in combination with axitinib prolongs progression free survival (PFS) compared to axitinib alone in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

This study is to find out if INC280 is safe and has beneficial effects in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma known to have dysregulation of c-MET pathway.

This was a multi-center, open-label, Phase Ib dose escalation /Phase II study in recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (RM HNSCC) patients considered to be resistant, ineligible or intolerant to platinum-based chemotherapy. The Phase Ib included three arms. Three different methods of administration and two different BYL719 formulations were studied to determine the MTD and/or RP2D of BYL719 in combination with cetuximab: Arm A - film-coated whole tablets were orally administered to patients who were able to swallow the tablets; Arm B - a drinkable suspension prepared from crushed film-coated tablets was administered orally to patients with swallowing dysfunction Arm C - a suspension from a dispersible tablet administered via G-tube, in patients with swallowing dysfunction. Arm C was used to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), compared to Arm A (film coated tablet), and safety of the dispersible tablet of the dispersible tablet formulation of BYL719. The Phase II investigated the clinical efficacy of BYL719 and consisted of an open label, randomized Phase II part investigating BYL719 in combination with cetuximab compared to cetuximab alone in patients resistant or intolerant to platinum and naïve to cetuximab (Scheme 1: Arm 1 and Arm 2), and a non-randomized Phase II part Scheme 2: Arm 3. In addition, patients who experienced disease progression in Arm 2 (cetuximab) were allowed to switch to the combination regimen (cross-over, Arm 2B). The safety of the BYL719 in combination with cetuximab was also further characterized in Arms 1, 2B and 3. Patients were treated until progression of disease), unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of informed consent, whichever occurred first (except for phase II Arm 2 had the opportunity to crossover to the combination treatment (Arm 2B). In the follow-up period all patients had to complete the safety follow-up assessments within 30 days after the last dose of the study treatment. Patients who did not have disease progression at the time of discontinuation of study treatment were radiologically followed for disease status until disease progression, initiation of subsequent anticancer therapies, or death, whichever occurred first. In addition, all patients enrolled in Phase II were followed for survival.

Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR) have a 3-5x increased occurrence of cancer in contrast to the general population with basal and squamous cell skin cancer. The use of immunosuppressant or anti-rejection drugs that are needed after SOTR is known to increase the risk of developing certain kinds of cancer. The purpose of this study is to find out how well Sirolimus (also known as Rapamune) works at treating squamous cell carcinoma in renal transplant patients.

This Phase 2a study will investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ASONEP™ (sonepcizumab/LT1009) when administered intravenously once a week, every 4 weeks (or cycle), to subjects with refractory renal cell carcinoma (RCC) until the disease progresses. Subjects who have failed 3 prior treatments for RCC including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and/or mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors or who have tumors that cannot be surgically removed will be eligible for screening.
