Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

The purpose of this research study is to see if it is feasible to receive heated chemotherapy or heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) inserted directly into the abdomen at the time of a Second Look Reassessment Surgery and to monitor any effects good or bad that this has on participants' health.

To explore the treatment efficacy of megestrol acetate plus rosuvastatin in patients with early endometrial carcinoma (EEC) seeking for conservative treatment.

This phase I trial identifies the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of BAY 1895344 in combination with chemotherapy in treating patients with solid tumors or urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). BAY 1895344 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cisplatin and gemcitabine are chemotherapy drugs that stop the growth of tumor cells by killing the cells. Combining BAY 1895344 with chemotherapy treatment (cisplatin, or cisplatin and gemcitabine) may be effective for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including urothelial cancer.

This is a phase 2 single-arm, open-label clinical trial determining efficacy of cabozantinib in combination with ipilimumab/nivolumab and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in subjects with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These are subjects who are not candidates for curative intent treatment.

An open-label multi-center phase Ib/II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody AK104 plus lenvatinib as the first-line therapy for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

To compare the effectiveness and toxicity of nedaplatin versus cisplatin in induction chemotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

The investigators propose a phase II randomized-controlled study on using durvalumab in combination with induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiation and adjuvant durvalumab, compared to induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiation for previously untreated locoregionally advanced stage III to IVA NPC. In parallel, the investigators will also perform collateral tumor and serum biomarker studies which will be correlated with the treatment response. The investigators will collect fresh tumour biopsies at pretreatment, then serially after induction chemotherapy and after concurrent chemoradiation to investigate the change in microenvironment of the tumour and the surrounding inflammatory cells before and after durvalumab. In addition, the investigators will also measure the change in number and intensity of PD-L1-positive circulating tumour cells (CTC) before and after durvalumab and evaluate their correlation with treatment response.

Through multicenter, open-label, randomised clinical trials, we intend to demonstrate that radiotherapy with reduced dose could significantly reduce the incidence of radiotherapy toxicities, improve the quality of life of patients while ensuring the tumor control rates for NPC patients staged as II-III who are sensitive to induction chemotherapy (imaging evaluation of CR/PR and EBV DNA copy number decreased to 0 copies/mL after induction chemotherapy)

This is an prospective, interventional, non-randomized multicenter phase II study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Cabozantinib as a second-line therapy (after one prior systemic therapy) in patients with intermediate to advanced HCC (BCLC B/C) and concomitant impaired liver function CP score B7-8. Subjects who meet all study eligibility criteria will receive Cabozantinib 40 mg daily orally. Subjects will receive Cabozantinib as long as they continue to experience clinical benefit in the opinion of the Investigator or until there is unacceptable toxicity or the need for subsequent systemic anti-cancer treatment or liver directed local anti-cancer therapy. Treatment may continue in this fashion after radiographic progression as long as the Investigator believes that the subject is still receiving clinical benefit from Cabozantinib and that the potential benefit of continuing Cabozantinib outweighs potential risk. In addition, all subjects will be treated with best supportive care. This excludes systemic anti-cancer therapy and liver-directed local anti-cancer therapy.

Liver transplant is the most effective treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhosis. Due to organs shortage, the proper selection of patients is imperative. Prevailing clinical morphological models used in most centres (Milan Criteria), can exclude potential candidates and include patients with aggressive biological behaviour. To more accurately select candidates for liver transplant, the inclusion of criteria that could predict the behaviour and aggressiveness of tumours, such as molecular markers, might be useful. The investigators propose the use of a new algorithm (HepatoPredict Prognostic Tool), that combine clinical and molecular criteria that address the biology of tumours, in a single centre prospective, intervention study. Data from the "HepatoPredict genomic signature" are added to the clinical and imagiology algorithm. Based on this tool, patients outside the usual eligibility criteria for liver transplant will be proposed for this treatment. These patients will be transplanted with marginal livers or with livers from patients with Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy, not competing with patients on the waiting list. Patients will be followed up to 60 months after transplant, to assess survival and HCC recurrence with biannual imagiology screening. Survival and disease-free-survival rates will be compared with those obtained by the usual management of patients included and excluded by Milan Criteria.
