Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus paclitaxel, cisplatin as neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery, and pembrolizumab as adjuvant therapy, compared with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and surgery for locally advanced ESCC in multicenter.

Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is usually performed in a piecemeal technique. Tumor fragmentation and cell spilling could be responsible for high recurrence rates. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been shown to be a prognostic predictor in disease progression in transitional cell carcinoma. In the current study the investigators aim to quantify CTCs in purging fluid and blood for recurrent intermediate risk bladder cancer during surgery for two different methods: TURBT and Plasma-kinetic vaporization of bladder tumor (PKVBT). Also correlations for recurrence will be investigated for the two different surgical methods.

The primary hypothesis is that the objective response rate (ORR) with nab-paclitaxel and nivolumab will be significantly higher than the historical control (ORR 30%). The KEY secondary hypothesis is that the median PFS with nab-paclitaxel and nivolumab will be significantly longer than the historical control (median PFS 3.6 months).

Oligometastasis is a definition that has been described in the past in the 1990s, and in some patients, metastases are not extensive and are limited to a small number of metastases. The local ablative treatment for oligometastasis is not a new concept. In case of liver metastasis from colorectal cancer, long-term survival can be expected if the liver resection is performed. Effectiveness has been demonstrated in studies of adrenal and brain metastasis from lung cancer as well as lung metastasis from sarcoma. A recent non-randomized study reported that patients with oligometastasis improved treatment outcomes with aggressive treatment. This study demonstrated that local ablative treatment for oligometastasis showed better treatment outcomes than expected. Also, the long-term outcomes in SABR-COMET trial showed that the overall survival were increased by 22 months. So far, the standard treatment for metastatic disease is systemic chemotherapy. However, based on these results from studies, active local treatment for patients with oligometastasis is currently being performed in the clinic. In this study, we aimed to apply this concept to patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. To confirm the efficacy and safety of stereotactic radiotherapy in patients with oligometastasis hepatocellular carcinoma

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of sintilimab combined with concurrent chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment for patients with operable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. It will also evaluate the changes in the immune microenvironment of tumor specimens before and after the medication, and predict the operable period (stage I~III) Patients with thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody, and the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody was evaluated by detecting the changes of microbial diversity and metabolites in stool samples before and after treatment.

The objective of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of BA3071 in solid tumors

The study aims to determine the efficacy of trastuzumab added to standard treatment (fluoropyrimidine/platinum doublet with pembrolizumab) in patients with HER2 positive Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) determined by 6 months progression free survival (PFS) (RECIST 1.1).

This is an Open, Single Arm, Exploratory and Phase II Clinical Trial of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules Combined With TQB2450 Injection in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC) Patients as Postoperative Adjuvant Therapy. In order to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules combined with TQB2450 Injection in treatment of patients with ESCC. The primary endpoint is disease free survival (DFS).

Compare the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab, apatinib plus FOLFOX-HAIC and camrelizumab plus apatinib in hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein invasion.

This phase II trial tests whether TRC102 (methoxyamine hydrochloride) in combination usual care treatment comprised of pemetrexed, cisplatin, and radiation therapy followed by durvalumab works better than the usual care treatment alone to shrink tumors in patients with stage III non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). TRC102 is in a class of drugs called antineoplastic agents. It blocks the ability of a cell to repair damage to its DNA and may kill cancer cells. It may also help some anticancer drugs work better. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make DNA and may kill cancer cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, 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 sources to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving TRC102 in combination with usual care treatment may be more effective than usual care treatment alone in stabilizing and lengthening survival time in patients with stage III non-squamous NSCLC.
