Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

This clinical study is designed as an open, single group, multi-center, phase 4 clinical study to assess the safety of Nimotuzumab in the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and to provide a more reasonable basis for clinical drug programs.

This is an open labeled, multiple centers, two countries (Taiwan and Korea) non-comparative phase I trial in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. In phase I part, a maximum of 18 patients will be recruited in this study.

TACE is widely used in patients with unresectable HCC. However, it is a non-curative approach; thus ,strategies to further improve the survival of these patients are needed. Sorafenib is regarded as standard treatment for advanced HCC. It is the first systemic therapy to demonstrate a significant survival benefit in HCC patients.The hypothesis is that the combination of TACE with sorafenib could improve the survival of patients with unresectable HCC.

This multi-center, prospective, observational cohort study will evaluate the effectiveness, safety and utilization of treatments in patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma nevus syndrome. The total study duration is anticipated to be a maximum of 8 years, including 3 years for patient recruitment and 5 years follow-up.

1) Observe and compare the curative effect of endostatin/recombined Endostatin in alliance with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and Concurrent chemo-radio therapy to treat the local advanced nasopharyngeal darcinoma; 2) Evaluate the security and tolerability in endostatin/recombined Endostatin in alliance with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and Concurrent chemo-radio therapy to treat the local advanced nasopharyngeal darcinoma.

Due to limited experience with cabazitaxel in TCCU, the study will be started as a randomised phase II study. The aim of the phase II study is to evaluate if the response rates (CR + PR) are sufficiently high to further study the treatment regimens in a phase III setting.

Concurrent cisplatin-based chemotherapy plus radiotherapy increased the risk of treatment-related death and severe acute toxicity. The survival benefit of adding concurrent chemotherapy to intensity modulated radiation in patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma is unclear. Gemcitabine plus cisplatin chemotherapy combine with radiotherapy was effective and well tolerated by patients with locoregionally advanced NPC.

Concurrent of radiotherapy and chemotherapy is the main treatment method for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). However, Relapse remains the major cause of treatment failure. A series of studies reported that dendritic and cytokine-induced killer cells (DC-CIK) have a broad anti-tumor spectrum. We suppose that DC-CIK will improve the prognosis of NPC. In this study, the patients with NPC will be treated with DC-CIK cells after concurrent of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of DC-CIK for NPC.

Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) develop when tumor cells reach the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and infiltrate the leptomeninges. The median survival of patient with breast cancer and LM is 4-6 months with up to 25% long-term survivors. Many potentially highly efficacious intravenous chemotherapies are currently not effective to treat LM because they do not adequately cross the blood-CSF barrier. Doxorubicin, the anthracycline chemotherapeutic agent, has a well-established antineoplastic activity in breast cancer. To optimally enhance the delivery of liposomal doxorubicin to the brain, to-BBB technologies B.V. has designed a glutathione (GSH) pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride formulation (2B3-101). Coating of liposomes with PEG ensures the prolonged circulation time in plasma, whilst conjugation of GSH to the tips of the PEG molecules targets the liposomes towards the active GSH transporters on the BBB to enhance the delivery of doxorubicin to the brain. This is a a clinical and pharmacological study that aims to determine preliminary efficacy of treatment with 2B3-101 in patients with leptomeningeal metastases of breast cancer using the LM response score.

assess the activity and toxicity of second-line treatment with pazopanib after failure of first-line sunitinib treatment in patients with clear cell mRCC; to investigate the potential association of DLL4, Notch1, VEGFA, PDGFRB, HIF-1α and HIF-2α with clinical response to pazopanib in mRCC patients.
