Active clinical trials for "Laryngeal Neoplasms"

9 participants are expected to be enrolled for this open，single-armed clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the recombinant herpes simplex virus Ⅰ, R130 in patients with relapsed/refractory head and neck cancer.

To find the highest tolerable dose of stereotactic hypofractionated radioablation (HYDRA) radiation that can be given to patients with laryngeal cancer. The safety of this radiation will also be studied.

The primary objective of this prospective randomized clinical trial is to assess non inferiority in terms of local control achieved with single vocal cord hypofractionated radiotherapy compared to standard of care whole laryngeal radiotherapy in patients with T1aN0 glottic cancer . Secondary objectives include overall survival rate and to compare the Voice Handicap Index score between the 2 arms as well as acute and late toxicities. Patients are randomized in 1:1 ratio.

This is a multicentrer, randomized Bayesian Phase II trial for patients with early stage (T1N0) glottic squamous cell carcinoma treated with radical radiotherapy. The primary objective is to assess the non-inferiority of local control achieved with vocal-cord only radiotherapy (VC-RT) compared to complete larynx radiotherapy (CL-RT) in T1N0 glottic laryngeal squamous cell cancer, measured at 2-years after treatment. Secondary outcomes include overall survival, as well as voice impairment, dysphagia and quality of life, measured respectively by the voice handicap index -10 (VHI-10), the MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (MDADI) and the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory- Head and Neck module (MDASI-HN). Patients will be randomized in a 1:3 ratio to CL-RT (39 patients) and VC-RT (116 patients) arms. There will be stratification by tumor stage (T1a/T1b) and by institution. An interim analysis is planned after the first 55 patients enrolled on the experimental arm have a 6-month follow-up.

Recruited patients are divided into two arms depending on laryngeal carcinoma's T1 and T2 stages. Two interventions were undergone, including transoral endoscopic laser cordectomy and open partial horizontal laryngectomy (OPHL). During the pre-and post-operative time, patients performed measurements of swallowing function, including direct subglottic pressure, Eating Assessment Tool-10(EAT-10) questionnaire, swallowing ability to different textures, and fiberoptic evaluation of swallowing(FEES). Patients undergo subglottic pressure measurement and swallowing function evaluation three times: 3-7 days, two months, and six months after surgery. Patients also performed measurement voice acoustic analysis and subjective assessment one-day pre-operation and six months post-operation.

As mentioned above, several prior studies have shown the positive effects of oral use of aloe vera juice in managing chemotherapy and radiation-induced oral mucositis and esophagitis. This study aims to add to the existing body of research around aloe vera juice and its effects on oral mucositis and esophagitis. The intention is to determine whether aloe vera juice should be considered as part of standard treatment.

The hypothesis of this study is that an occlusion balloon catheter placed in the stomach via an oral or nasogastric route will be safe and permit tracking of the stomach during radiation therapy.

The main goal of this phase of the study is to determine if objectively assessed Physical Activity (PA) levels in advanced-cancer patients are associated with health care provider (HCP)-assessed ECOG performance status and overall survival. The purpose is to advance the evidence-base for incorporating objective assessment of Physical Activity (PA) in the context of performance status assessment in advanced cancer patients.

This a prospective, single-arm, multi-institutional, open label, phase 2 trial evaluating the effects of induction chemo-immunotherapy, followed by radioimmunotherapy, followed by consolidation immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx who are candidates for organ preservation.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation when given together with carboplatin followed by chemoradiation in treating patients with recurrent head and neck cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, carboplatin, fluorouracil, and hydroxyurea, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation followed by chemoradiation therapy may be an effective treatment for head and neck cancer.
