Active clinical trials for "Esophageal Neoplasms"

This early phase I trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma that has spread to other places or cannot be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) versus placebo plus SOC chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-FU as first-line treatment in participants with locally advanced or metastatic esophageal carcinoma. The overall primary efficacy hypotheses are as follows: In participants with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), participants whose tumors are programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive (defined as combined positive score [CPS] ≥10), ESCC participants whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥10), and in all participants, overall survival (OS) is superior with pembrolizumab plus SOC chemotherapy compared with placebo plus SOC chemotherapy. In participants with ESCC, participants whose tumors are PD-L1 positive (CPS ≥10), and in all participants, progression-free survival (PFS) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 as assessed by investigator is superior with pembrolizumab plus SOC chemotherapy compared with placebo plus SOC chemotherapy.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiation therapy combined with anti-PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 in patients with esophageal cancer

There is no standard treatment strategy for recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients now, especially after the second-line treatment. Most of the patients have the bad ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) score and prognosis. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery are usually unacceptable for them. Previous data showed that apatinib treatment significantly improved OS(overall survival) and PFS(progression-free survival) with an acceptable safety profile in patients with advanced gastric cancer refractory to two or more lines of prior chemotherapy. The study will observe the efficacy and safety of Apatinib for recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: A phase II, prospective, single-arm, multicenter trial.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXD) as monotherapy is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with advanced HER2-positive advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma who have received a prior trastuzumab-based regimen. This study will assess the effectiveness of T-DXd, patient demographic and clinical characteristics, and treatment patterns in patients with advanced HER2-positive advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma.

The goal of this research study is to investigate the feasibility of implementing a prehabilitation program that aims to improve a patient's physical, nutritional, and sleep health before surgery in an older, at-risk group with esophageal cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the study drug known as ramucirumab in participants with gastric and gastroesophageal cancer.

This research study is studying a targeted therapy as a possible treatment for advanced esophageal cancer. The study intervention involved in this study is: -Pembrolizumab

In this study participants with advanced/metastatic adenocarcinoma of the esophagus (EAC), squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus (ESCC), or advanced/metastatic Siewert type I adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ), who had been previously treated with two standard therapies, will be treated with pembrolizumab.

This is a perspective, multicenter,randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with CMNa combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locally advanced squamous cell esophageal carcinoma . Analyses of primary objective (ORR) will be done as defined in the protocol.
