Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma"

A study that aimed to assess the safety and anti-tumor activity of C-TCR055 injection in unresectable HCC patients

The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of maintenance chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Participants will be randomized to 3 arms. Arm 1, control group, participants will receive only 4-8 cycles of conventional chemotherapy; arm 2, participants will receive 6 cycles of maintenance chemotherapy after conventional chemotherapy; arm 3, experiment arm, after conventional chemotherapy, participants will receive maintenance chemotherapy until disease progression or intolerable toxicities.

The purpose of this study is to observe and preliminary explore the efficacy and safety of combination of Apatinib and SHR-1210 regimen in treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma or gastric cancer. Apatinib is a small-molecule vascular endothelial growth factors receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, similar to vatalanib (PTK787), but with a binding affinity 10 times that of vatalanib or sorafenib. SHR-1210 is a humanized anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody.

This is a Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of two cycles versus three cycles of Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in treating patients with Low Risk Locoregionally Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma based on pretreatment plasma EBV DNA.

The trial will recruit up to 120 patients; 90 with ovarian clear cell carcinoma and up to 30 with endometrial clear cell carcinoma. Patients will be randomised between chemotherapy and Nintedanib 200mg twice daily oral administration (PO) continuously. The primary diagnosis must be histologically confirmed and central pathological review of the presenting tumour or biopsy of relapsed disease must find at least 50% clear cell carcinoma with no serous differentiation

Combined sunitinib and bevacizumab in advanced renal cell carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and 2-year local control rate for extensive clinical target volumes in postoperative radiotherapy concurrent with chemotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

This study is to assess the efficacy and the safety of hepatic arterial infusion of cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (HAIC) in advanced HCC patients stratified by biomarker expression predicting therapeutic response.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficiency and safety of Chidamide in advanced cephalic and cervical adenoid cystic carcinoma. Chidamide is given to patients with advanced cephalic and cervical adenoid cystic carcinoma with the dosage of 30mg,twice a week, then overall survival, event-free survival are accessed for efficiency, and laboratory tests about the function of vital organs are accessed for safety.

Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the fourth most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. CRC frequently gives rise to transcoelomic spread of tumor cells in the peritoneal cavity, which ultimately leads to Peritoneal Carcinomatosis (PC). A new loco-regional treatment modality combines Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Peroperative Chemotherapy (HIPEC). The current HIPEC dosing regimens for the treatment of colorectal PC can be divided into body surface area (BSA)-based protocols and concentration-based protocols. Most groups currently use a drug dose based on calculated BSA (mg/m2) in analogy to systemic chemotherapy regimens. These regimens take BSA as a measure for the effective contact area, represented as the peritoneal surface in the formula for dose intensification. However, an imperfect correlation exists between actual peritoneal surface area and calculated BSA. Sex differences, but also altered pathophysiological characteristics or frequent complications in patients (ascites) are responsible for differences in peritoneal surface areas, which in turn affect absorption characteristics. This takes us away from the initial homogenous drug concentration desired, increasing the variability in the systemic and tumor exposure to the drug. Pharmacokinetic changes induced by the volume of chemotherapy solution with constant drug dose, administered intraperitoneally, have already been reported. This resulted in less precise predictions of the toxicity associated with the treatment. By contrast, some groups use a totally different dosimetry regimen based on concentration. From a pharmacologic point of view, the big advantage of a concentration-based system is that the residual tumor nodules after CRS are exposed to a constant diffusional force and, thus, cytotoxicity. Unfortunately the prize to be paid for a better prediction of the efficacy of the IP chemotherapy is a high unpredictability of the levels of plasmatic cancer chemotherapy and, thus, toxicity. This randomised non-blinded phase III clinical trial will be the first trial to pharmacologically evaluate the two dosing regimens, BSA-based and concentration-based, both applied as standard of care in current practice.
