Active clinical trials for "Esophageal Neoplasms"

In this study, participants with advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus or Siewert type I adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) that had progressed after first-line standard therapy were randomized to receive either pembrolizumab (MK-3475) OR the Investigator's choice of standard chemotherapy with paclitaxel, docetaxel, or irinotecan. The primary study hypothesis was that treatment with pembrolizumab would prolong overall survival (OS) as compared to treatment with standard chemotherapy.

This is a single-arm clinical trial.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Raltitrexed and Paclitaxel as second-line chemotherapy for patients with unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma .The primary endpoint of this study is objective response rate.The secondary endpoint of this study is safety,progression-free survival and overall survival.

This phase 2 trial evaluatesteh benefit of epacadostat plus pembrolizumab in combination to treat patients with gastroesophageal junction or gastric cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and cannot be removed by surgery. Epacadostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Giving epacadostat and pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with gastroesophageal junction or gastric cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerance and efficacy of Liposomal Paclitaxel With Nedaplatin as First-line in patients with Advanced or Recurrent Esophageal Carcinoma

The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of cryosurgery plus NK immunotherapy to advanced esophageal cancer.

Stage I of the Thoracic-POISE study will pilot-test a broad-based, multi-agent integrative care intervention delivered by naturopathic doctors in conjunction with standard surgical and oncologic care of people with thoracic cancer.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ganetespib when given together with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and radiation therapy in treating patients with stage II-III esophageal cancer. Ganetespib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, 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. Giving ganetespib in combination with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and radiation therapy may be a better treatment for patients with esophageal cancer.

A first-in-human sttudy using PCA062 in patients with p-CAD positive solid tumors.

The study wants to define the efficacy of a short course 2D-radiation therapy in patients with symptomatic advanced esophageal cancer.

This study is to establish a safe and tolerable dose and to investigate pharmacokinetics and the first clinical efficacy signals of M1231 as a single agent in participants with solid tumors (Part 1) and with metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (Part 2). Dose escalation will be followed by the dose expansion once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended dose for Expansion (RDE) has been defined.
