Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

Small cell ovarian carcinomas are rare and have a very poor prognosis affecting a young population. The objective of this study is to increase the efficacy of the initial chemotherapy by providing immunotherapy and to be able to offer to more patients the possibility of benefiting from an intensification of chemotherapy, which is a major prognostic factor in this population.

Intra-arterial (IA) therapy is generally used to treat HCC tumors that are too extensive to excise or treat with potentially curative local therapy. IA therapy takes advantage of the fact that the blood supply of HCC comes predominantly from the hepatic artery compared with the surrounding normal liver which is predominantly supplied by portal venous blood. The intent is to deprive the HCC of its blood supply, leading to the death of the tumor. Traditionally, various methods have been used to block the HCC blood supply, but improvements are needed. This study will investigate a new agent designed in the laboratory to block only tumor blood vessels, not blood vessels in the normal liver.

This phase I/Ib trial seeks to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of cabozantinib in combination with enfortumab vedotin in treating urothelial cancer that has spread to nearby tissues and lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other parts of the body (metastatic). Cabozantinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to a toxic agent called vedotin. Enfortumab attaches to nectin-4 tumor cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. Cabozantinib in combination with enfortumab vedotin may be safe and effective in treating locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.

This study is being done to see if a drug called disitamab vedotin, alone or with pembrolizumab, works to treat HER2 expressing urothelial cancer. It will also test how safe the drug is for participants. Participants will have cancer that has spread in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic). It will also study what side effects happen when participants get the drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to your body besides treating the disease.

This is a single arm, multi-center clinical trial. Target population is patients with Advanced or Metastatic Pulmonary Sarcomatoid Carcinoma，aiming to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of Camrelizumab and famitinib . Camrelizumab is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody, and famitinib is an orally bioavailable receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor.

This phase Ib trial investigates the side effects of durvalumab and tremelimumab after radioembolization (radiation particles against liver tumors) and to see how well they work in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and has spread to nearby tissues and lymph nodes (locally advanced). Durvalumab and tremelimumab are antibodies (proteins produced by the defense system of the body [immune system]) that have been made in the laboratory and may improve the ability of the immune system to detect and fight cancer.

This phase I trial evaluates the side effects of radio-immunotherapy (CDX-301, radiotherapy, CDX-1140 and Poly-ICLC) in treating patients with breast cancer or melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). CDX-301 may induce cross-presenting dendritic cells, master regulators in the immune system. Radiation therapy uses high energy to kill tumor cells and release antigens that may be picked up, processed and presented by cross-presenting dendritic cells. CDX-1140 and Poly-ICLC may activate tumor antigen-loaded,cross-presenting dendritic cells, and generate tumor-specific T lymphocytes, a type of immune cells, that can search out and attack cancers. Giving immune modulators and radiation therapy may stimulate tumor cell death and activate the immune system.

In this study, patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma will receive first line treatment with olaparib, pembrolizumab, and carboplatin. The primary hypothesis is that olaparib, pembrolizumab and carboplatin will result in an overall response rate (ORR) higher than the historical ORR observed with pembrolizumab, platinum and 5-FU.

Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) accounts for approximately 20% of newly diagnosed breast cancer cases. Of these women, 20% require radical management in the form of mastectomy because of the extent of the lesions, which most often manifest as diffuse microcalcifications. This mutilating surgical management contrasts with the excellent prognosis of this pathology and considerably alters the quality of life of patients. Neoadjuvant hormone therapy has shown its efficacy in hormone-dependent infiltrating ductal carcinomas and offers the possibility of conservative surgery after hormone therapy. Adjuvant hormone therapy with Tamoxifen or anti-aromatase drugs has shown its efficacy in the prevention of homo or contralateral recurrence. The HORNEO 01 trial fits perfectly in the current context of surgical de-escalation of ductal carcinomas in situ. The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of neoadjuvant hormone therapy on the surgical management of extensive DCIS.

The objective of this pivotal study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of SIRT using SIR-Spheres Y-90 resin microspheres as first-line treatment for local control of HCC in patients with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage A, B1, B2, and C. SIR-Spheres consist of biocompatible resin microspheres containing yttrium-90 (Y-90), with a size between 20 and 60 microns in diameter. Y-90 is a high-energy pure beta-emitting isotope with no primary gamma emission. SIR-Spheres are indicated for the local tumor control of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage A, B1 and B2, maximal single lesion size of 8 cm, no macrovascular invasion, well-compensated liver function and good performance status. It is also indicated for the treatment of unresectable metastatic liver tumors from primary colorectal cancer with adjuvant intra-hepatic artery chemotherapy (IHAC) of Floxuridine (FUDR).
