Efficacy Study of Chemoradiotherapy With or Without Paclitaxel in Squamous-cell Anal Carcinoma Patients...
Anus NeoplasmsCarcinoma6 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of paclitaxel, capecitabine, mitomycin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy is more effective than the standard combination of capecitabine, mitomycin and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with squamous-cell anal cancer.
Efficacy and Safety of Dacomitinib in the Treatment of Skin Squamous Cell Cancer
Skin Squamous Cell CancerThis is an open label, monocentric, uncontrolled phase II trial with Dacomitinib, a pan-HER inhibitor, in unresectable or metastatic skin SCC. HER2 expression is common in skin SCC, being reported with high rates, even if in small studies. Coexpression of EGFR, HER2 and HER3 is present in skin SCCs but not in normal skin and it could be associated with the malignant phenotype. In this frame Dacomitinib could play a role in the increase of the response rate.
Study of the Interest of Pursuing or Not the Chemotherapy for Patients With Metastatic Esophageal...
Esophageal CancerSquamous CellPhase II study, randomized, open-label, multicentric, willing to establish the benefit of pursuing chemotherapy beyond 6 weeks for non progressive patients. The study will proceed in two successive phases : non randomized phase in which all patients will undergo chemotherapy second phase in which only non progressive patients are going to be randomized ("discontinuation design"). Patients that will show progression in their disease during the first 6 weeks will be released of the study
Evaluation of a Miniaturized Microscope Device for the Detection of Esophageal Squamous Cell Cancer...
Squamous Cell CancerThe overall objective of this study is to determine whether high-resolution imaging of the esophagus during routine diagnostic upper endoscopy can assist clinicians in detecting and discriminating dysplastic (precancerous) areas. This high-resolution microendoscope (HRME) was developed by our collaborators at Rice University and provides > 1000x magnified images of the esophageal mucosa. The purpose of this study is to determine whether this device can be used to enhance the diagnostic accuracy of routine endoscopic screening for squamous cell cancer of the esophagus.
Prospective, Post Marketing Surveillance Study On Erbitux® (Cetuximab) in Patients With Locally...
Head and Neck CancerAfter consultation with the Korean Health Authorities, the two Post-Authorization Safety Studies EMR 62202-509 (NCT01082315) and EMR 62241-508 (NCT01075828) were combined within one study protocol EMR 062202-551. This Post-Marketing Surveillance Study (PMS) EMR 062202-551 is requested by the Korean Health Authorities to continue monitoring of Erbitux and provide further information about safety and toxicity in clinical practice in at least 900 patients during 6 years. All data points from the EMR 62202-509 (NCT01082315) and EMR 62241-508 (NCT01075828) remain unchanged in protocol EMR 062202-551. Therefore, the Sponsor has decided not to separately disclose the EMR 062202-551 study titled "A Korean Post-Marketing Surveillance Study On Erbitux® (Cetuximab) in Patients With Locally Advanced or Recurrent and/or Metastatic Squamous Cell Cancer of the Head and Neck (originally EMR 62241-508) and in Patients With EGFR-expressing, KRAS wild-type Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (originally EMR 62202-509)" on clinicaltrials.gov.
TumorGraft- Guided Therapy for Improved Outcomes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Cancer- A Feasibility...
Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaPrimary objectives: Evaluate the feasibility of rapidly accruing 30 participants with recurrent metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma for the development of patient derived xenographs (PDX) from fresh, real time biopsies in which sensitivity to < 4 Ontario funded chemotherapeutic regimen will be tested. Written feedback to the primary oncologist will be provided. There is also a curative intent cohort of 30 participants undergoing surgical resection with curative intent. These PDX models will undergo exome sequencing with written feedback. Feasibility in both surgical and recurrent cohorts will be a measure of i) engraftment rate, ii) patient status at the time of drug testing completion and iii) rate of accrual.
A Phase II Study of Parotid-gland Sparing IMRT in Patients With Midline Tumour of the Head and Neck...
Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell CancerHypopharyngeal Squamous Cell CancerThis study is a phase II trial designed to test the feasibility of delivering IMRT to head and neck cancer patients with tumours arising in the midline (oropharynx and hypopharynx), and to assess possible improvement in reducing the incidence of xerostomia with bilateral superficial lobe parotid sparing IMRT.
Intensive Nutrition Counselling in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Head and Neck Squamous Cell CancerThe purpose of this study is to assess the effect of a pre-planned patient-adjusted intensive nutritional counselling given by a dietitian several times during (chemo)radiotherapy vs. individualized nutritional counselling given by a dietitian once in the beginning of (chemo)radiotherapy and thereafter on-demand in patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer.
Study to Assess the Safety of Nivolumab in the Treatment of Metastatic Melanoma, Lung Cancer, Renal...
Multiple Indications CancerThis is a post-marketing study of patients who started nivolumab as first- or second-line therapy for metastatic melanoma or as second-line therapy for metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (SqNSCLC) , metastatic non-SqNSCLC, metastatic renal cell carcimona (RCC), or recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck cancer (SCCHN), or third-line therapy for classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) in Mexico.
A Post-marketing Surveillance Study on Erbitux in Combination With Platinum-based Chemotherapy in...
NeoplasmsSquamous CellThis is a prospective post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study to collect safety information from more than 600 subjects with recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (SCCHN) treated with Erbitux as final evaluable cases. This PMS study is requested by the Korean Regulatory Authorities. After approval of new indication in Korea, there is a requirement to investigate more than 600 subjects during six years, to continue monitoring and provide further information about safety and toxicity in clinical practice.
