Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

Multicenter Phase II Study of Axitinib +/- Pembrolizumab in First Line Treatment for Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma (PRCC)

The goal of the Phase 1 portion is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of NKT2152. The Phase 2 portion will evaluate the efficacy of NKT2152 in ccRCC.

The overall objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of removal of Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) using a new investigational equipment based on high-intensity focused ultrasound. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common cancer in Europe, Australia and the U.S.A. The general upwards age shift in the population in these regions is expected to be accompanied by an increase in the incidence of this type of cancer. There are currently more the 20.000 BCC registrations in Denmark every year, and occurrences on a global scale are counted in several tens of millions per year. Finding new and more effective treatment methods are therefore highly relevant from both a clinical and socioeconomic perspective. The investigational device used in the investigation is a Danish developed system capable of making controlled and targeted thermo-mechanical treatment of small intradermal volumes containing e.g. BCC cells, but without inflicting damage to the surrounding tissue. The investigation involves an evaluation of the safety and efficacy profile 3 months after a single 3-5 minute treatment. Subsequent follow-up of secondary endpoints is done every third month until the end of the study one year after the treatment.

This phase II/III trial compares the effect of the combination of high-dose cisplatin every three weeks and radiation therapy versus low-dose cisplatin weekly and radiation therapy for the treatment of patients with locoregionally advanced head and neck cancer. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. This study is being done to find out if low-dose cisplatin given weekly together with radiation therapy is the same or better than high-dose cisplatin given every 3 weeks together with radiation therapy in treating patients with head and neck cancer.

This phase II trial studies the effect of calorie reduction while undergoing stereotactic ablative radiation therapy in treating patients with breast cancer. Stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (sABR) is a highly focused radiation treatment that gives an intense dose of radiation concentrated on a tumor, while limiting the dose to the surrounding organ. Giving SABR before surgery may make the tumor smaller. Adding dietary restrictions in combination with radiation therapy may help increase local control and decrease the spread of the cancer to other places in the body. The purpose of this trial is to identify if there is a decrease in tumor tissue in patients undergoing caloric restriction during pre-operative SABR, compared to patients undergoing pre-operative SABR alone.

We intend to compare the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy plus stereotactic body radiotherapy at oligometastatic lesions and immunotherapy alone among patients with oligometastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma whose primary lesion has been well controlled after radical local-regional treatment through this multicenter randomized phase 3 trial.

Hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) and anti-programmed cell death protein-1ligand (PD-L1) immunotherapy have shown promising outcomes in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), respectively. However, the combination of the two treatments has not been reported. In this study, we will evaluate the the overall survival (OS)、efficacy and safety in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (Ad-HCC) with portal vein embolism who are undergoing hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil/leucovorin (FOLFOX) treatment combined with anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy (Durvalumab) by designing an open, single-arm phase II clinical study.

This is a phase 2, Simon's 2-stage designed study with 2 cohorts of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 experienced patients with untreated brain metastases: 1) melanoma and 2) renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

This phase Ib trial evaluates the best dose, potential benefits, and/or side effects of erdafitinib in combination with enfortumab vedotin in treating patients with bladder cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and possesses genetic alterations in FGFR2/3 genes. Erdafitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal FGFR protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This may help keep cancer cells from growing and may kill them. Enfortumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, enfortumab, linked to an anticancer drug called vedotin. It works by helping the immune system to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Enfortumab attaches to a protein called nectin-4 on cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. It is a type of antibody-drug conjugate. Giving erdafitinib in combination with enfortumab vedotin may shrink or stabilize metastatic bladder cancer with alterations in FGFR 2/3 genes.

This study is a randomized, double-blind, multi-center phase III clinical study to compare the efficacy and safety of penpulimab combined with chemotherapy and placebo combined with chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
