Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The TERTIO trial will propose to determine the clinical interest and immunological efficacy of a treatment combining the CD4 helper T-inducer cancer anti-telomerase vaccine (UCPVax) with anti-PD-L1 therapy (atezolizumab) and bevacizumab in unresectable HCC by evaluation of the objective response rate at 6 months (randomized phase II, 10 centers, 105 patients)

This study is a national, multicenter, interventional, phase II clinical trial on the use of pembrolizumab in advanced adrenocortical carcinoma, with confirmed progression within 6 months, following EDP or EDP-M ( etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin- mitotan) chemotherapy. Adrenocortical carcinoma is a very rare entity with poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Only radical surgical treatment of the early stages gives a chance for complete cure, however the risk of recurrence still remains high. The results of clinical trials conducted outside Poland indicate a possible potential role of immunotherapy as a rescue treatment for adrenocortical carcinoma after standard therapeutic methods have been exhausted. This study will evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of treatment with the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab in locally advanced, non-operable or metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma after first line chemotherapy failure. The study population will include adult patients (>18 years of age) with histopathologically confirmed adrenocortical carcinoma and confirmed progression according to RECIST 1.1 within 6 months, after first line chemotherapy with the EDP and EDP-M scheme. Patients must meet the inclusion criteria and must not meet the exclusion criteria described in the PEMBR-01 study protocol. The planned number of patients in the study is 24. The treatment regimen will be based on Pembrolizumab administered intravenously in 3 weeks cycles at a dose of 200mg. For hormonally active tumors producing cortisol, it is hypothesized that the use of pembrolizumab in combination with effective steroidogenesis inhibition may enhance the effect of immunotherapy. In the study, metyrapone or ketoconazole will be used for this purpose. The primary endpoint of the study will be the objective response rate to the treatment. The secondary endpoints will be progression-free survival, duration of response, overall survival, and treatment safety as well as the effect of therapy on patients' quality of life. Concurrently, the analysis of biomarkers in tumor tissue will be carried out, including tumour infiltrating lymphocytes, expression of programmed death ligand, microsatellite instability and tumour mutation burden.

This phase I trial is to find out the possible side effects of pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before and during surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer that remains despite treatment (persistent) or has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before and during surgery may kill more tumor cells.

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).

The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus belzutifan plus lenvatinib or pembrolizumab/quavonlimab plus lenvatinib versus pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib as first-line treatment in participants with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The primary hypotheses are (1) pembrolizumab plus belzutifan plus lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), in advanced ccRCC participants; and (2) pembrolizumab/quavonlimab plus lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib with respect to PFS and OS, in advanced ccRCC participants.

Locally advanced rectal carcinoma raise the issue of both the oncological control, local and general, and the therapeutic morbidity. Surgery alone can cure only one out of two patients, radiochemotherapy improves the local control but the metastatic risk remains about 30% with enhanced postoperative morbidity and poor functional results. The tumor response to preoperative treatment is the major prognostic factor which revealed the aggressiveness of the tumor. To this day, there are no biologic predictive markers for tumor response. The purpose of this trial is to tailor the management according to the early tumoral response after short and intensive induction chemotherapy. MRI volumetric tumor response will be used to distinguish between good responders and bad responders. "Very good" responders will be randomized to either immediate surgery or radiochemotherapy followed by surgery (Standard arm: Cap 50).

Through multicenter, open-label, randomised clinical trials, we intend to demonstrate that PD-1 treatment added to salvage surgery could further decrease the rate of disease progression and improve the survival outcome of patients with resectable locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma compared with those treated with salvage surgery alone.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with pd-1 antibody immunotherapy (Sintilimab) and anti-VEGF (Bevacizumab Biosimilar) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (BCLC-C Stage).

A Phase I Clinical Study ofCT0180 cells in Patients with Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, parallel controlled, open-label study. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Huaier Granule on postoperative adjuvant therapy of high-risk early-stage triple-negative invasive ductal carcinoma. The Secondary purposes are to evaluate the safety of long-term use of Huaier granules as postoperative adjuvant treatment of high-risk early-stage triple-negative invasive ductal carcinoma, and the changes of quality of life score after treatment with Huaier granule.
