Active clinical trials for "Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma"

The study is to evaluate the efficacy of KL-A167 injection in subjects with recurrent/metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, as measured by Overall Response Rate (ORR) per the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors RECIST Version 1.1

To determine the efficacy and safety of sequential chemoradiotherapy with regimen of docetaxel, cisplatin and fluorouracil and reduced target delineation and radiation doses IMRT for patients with locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma

To prospectively evaluate the short-term efficacy and toxicity of induction chemotherapy with cisplatin and capecitabine followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in the treatment of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

The study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Apatinib as maintenace therapy for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma With Metastasis after Chemoradiotherapy, including progress free survival(PFS)、overall survival (OS)、Quality of life score (QoL) and evaluation of drug safety.

This study is a prospective phase II trial which is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IMRT combined with concurrent chemotherapy and anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma with induced chemotherapy resistance. Eligibility criteria include histologically confirmed locally advanced NPC according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Staging System (the eighth edition); Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1; at least one measurable lesion based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria 1.1; normal complete blood count, normal hepatic function and normal renal function. Exclusion criteria include previous radiotherapy, a history of any other type of malignancy; pregnancy or lactation; allergy to anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody; obvious dysfunction of liver, renal, cardiac or lung function; uncontrolled infection; systemic metastasis or distant metastasis; patients with severe gastrointestinal diseases, and patients with mental disorders affecting patient participation in trial judgement. The full-set pretreatment evaluation will be performed to every patient. All patients in this study will receive intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The primary endpoints of this study is progression-free survival (PFS) and adverse events (AE) rate.

A phase I/II clinical study of JS004 in subjects with head and neck cancer in China, to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, antitumor activity and biomarkers of JS004, define the RP2D. A cycle is 21 days (3 weeks) which includes JS004 being administered IV Q3W and JS004 combine with JS001 being administered IV Q3W. All patients will be treated until disease progression per RECIST v1.1 and iRECIST, or intolerable toxicity per CTCAE 5.0, withdrawal of consent, or end of the study, whichever occurs first.Disease progression must be confirmed at least 4 weeks but no longer than 8 weeks after initial documentation of progression.

The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of high-activity natural killer immunotherapy to small metastases of nasopharyngeal cancer.

Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether cetuximab is more effective when given alone or together with sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with head and neck cancer. This randomized phase II trial is studying cetuximab to see how well it works when given together with or without sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with refractory, recurrent, and/or metastatic head and neck cancer.

Patients have a type of a lymph node cancer called lymphoma, a tumor of the nasal passages called nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), a tumor of a particular type of muscle called leiomyosarcoma (LMS) or a condition called severe chronic active EBV (SCAEBV) syndrome. The disease has come back, may come back or has not gone away after treatment. This voluntary research study uses special immune system cells called LMP-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, a new experimental therapy. Some patients with these diseases show evidence of infection with the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis (called Epstein-Barr virus, or EBV) before or at the time of their diagnosis. EBV is found in the cancer cells of up to half of the patients with lymphomas, and in some cases of NPC and LMS, suggesting that it may play a role in causing these diseases. Those cancer cells (as well as some B cells in SCAEBV) that are infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape destruction. We want to see if special white blood cells, called T cells, that have been trained to kill cells infected by EBV can survive in the blood and affect the tumor. This treatment with specially trained T cells has had activity against these viruses when the cells are made from patients with those diseases (or, after bone marrow transplant, from the patient's transplant donor). However, sometimes it is not possible to grow these cells; other times, it may take 2 to 3 months to make the cells, which may be too long when one has an active tumor. We are therefore asking if subjects would like to participate in this study, which tests if blood cells from a donor that is a partial match with the subject (or the transplant donor) that have been grown in the way described above can survive in the blood and affect the disease. These LMP-specific CTLs are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

This phase II trial is studying how well giving carboplatin, paclitaxel, cetuximab, and erlotinib hydrochloride together works in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent squamous cell head and neck cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving combination chemotherapy together with cetuximab and erlotinib hydrochloride may kill more tumor cells.
