Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The purpose of this study is to identify predictive and pharmacodynamic biomarkers of activity and efficacy of pre-operative Afatinib (BIBW2992) in untreated non-metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients

This is a Phase II study for recurrent ovarian carcinoma platinum-sensitive and resistant tumors Folfox regimen.

Gemcitabine is a novel analog of the nucleoside deoxycytidine that acts via inhibition of DNA synthesis.Docetaxel is a semisynthetic taxane and promotes microtubule assembly and inhibits microtubule depolymerization. In this study, patients received gemcitabine 900 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 plus docetaxel 100 mg/m2 on day 8 with G-CSF support every 3 week.

RATIONALE: Famitinib is a tyrosin-inhibitor agent targeting at c-Kit, VEGFR2, PDGFR, VEGFR3, Flt1 and Flt3. Phase I study of mono famitinib has shown that the drug's toxicity is manageable. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the safety and tolerance of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with famitinib for patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Comparative evaluation of recurrence-free survival (RFS) time and 3 year overall survival (OS) time between the treatment groups (L-BLP25 plus cyclophosphamide versus placebo and saline infusion).

Dalantercept, a soluble form of the activin receptor-like kinase-1 protein, is being studied in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Dalantercept blocks the development of blood vessels that supply tumors.

The purpose of this study is to determine the activity, tolerability and safety of Temsirolimus in women with ovarian cancer who progressed during the previous platinum chemotherapy alternatively within 6 months from completion of therapy or advanced endometrial carcinoma.

Study PIM4973g is a multicenter, international, open-label Phase II trial. Participants with metastatic renal cell carcinoma who have progressed on or after VEGF targeted therapy will be randomized in 1:1 to two groups either to receive daily GDC-0980 or everolimus orally.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether an EBV-LMP1 targeted DNAzyme is effective in radiosensitization of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in combination with standard radiation therapy.

This research trial collects information about types of treatment and the cost of these procedures in women with elevated genetic risk for ovarian cancer who participated on the Gynecology Oncology Group (GOG)-0199 trial. Gathering information about women at elevated genetic risk for ovarian cancer may help doctors learn more about risk reduction procedures and the cost of these procedures.
