Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-control window of opportunity study of Anti-tumor B versus placebo. Anti-tumor B is a botanical agent composed of six Chinese herbs: Sophora tonkinensis, Polygonum bistorta, Prunella vulgaris, Sonchus brachyotus, Dictamnus dasycarpus, and Dioscorea bulbifera.

Two randomized trials of reirradiation after salvage surgery have been conducted by the GETTEC and GORTEC collaborative groups, both members of the French HN Intergroup: The first trial compared reirradiation and a "wait and see attitude" and was published in 2008 [1]. The second trial compared two modalities of reirradiation. Our hypothesis is that adjuvant treatment with immunotherapy will lead to a DFS similar to that observed in previous trials of post-operative reirradiation with possibly lower toxicity.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the oral and maxillofacial region. Currently, surgery is the main method of comprehensive treatment. TPF (paclitaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil) chemotherapy regimen is one of the important methods for the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Adjuvant chemotherapy before and after surgery can significantly improve the therapeutic effect of oral cancer patients. Oral mucositis (OM) is a common side effect during chemotherapy, which seriously affects the quality of life of chemotherapy patients and may lead to the termination of chemotherapy. Prevention and treatment of oral mucositis is still an urgent clinical problem. Investigators' previous studies have found that vitamin D can significantly inhibit the proliferation, migration, invasion and metastasis of oral squamous cell carcinoma cells, and vitamin D can protect normal oral mucosal tissue by inhibiting pyroptosis caused by platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. Based on the previous basic research, this project intends to conduct a single-center, prospective, clinical randomized controlled study on the clinical efficacy of vitamin D in reducing oral mucosal inflammation in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma undergoing TPF chemotherapy, in order to provide evidence-based medical evidence for the clinical use of vitamin D in reducing oral mucosal inflammation in patients with oral cancer chemotherapy. The results of this study are expected to serve as guidelines to guide clinical practice.

This study collects stool, blood, and tumor tissue samples from patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer after receiving Sintilimab and chemotherapy to explore the efficacy and intestinal microbes of chemotherapy combined with neoadjuvant immunotherapy for locally advanced operable thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma The main purpose is the relationship between its metabolites, and it will also explore the changes of intestinal flora diversity and metabolites before and after esophageal squamous cell carcinoma chemotherapy combined with immune neoadjuvant therapy

This is a single institutional, single arm, open labeled phase II study to assess the overall radiographic response of adding Avelumab to chemotherapy and palliative radiotherapy in patients with metastatic advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

The purpose of this study is to test if an investigational dye, called PARPi-FL, can be used to detect this type of cancer. This will be the first time that PARPi-FL is being tried in people. First, the investigators will test the safety of PARPi-FL at different doses to find out what effects, if any, it has on people. The investigators will also see which amount of PARPi-FL is best suited to detect cancers of the mouth and tongue.

We propose a focused, prospective pilot clinical imaging trial to evaluate 11C-Gln PET/CT followed by 18F-FSPG PET/CT in 20 HNSCC patients. Imaging metrics that are common to PET (e.g. SUVmax, peak or mean) will be determined. This study will also allow the acquisition of additional safety and biodistribution data, as, to date, only a limited number of patients have been evaluated with 11C-Gln as a direct PET imaging biomarker of Gln uptake. To date, no adverse side effects have been observed. We do not anticipate any toxicity since this tracer is a naturally-occurring essential amino acid in high abundance and is administered at sub-pharmacologic doses. A long-term goal of these preliminary studies is to validate the utility of Gln PET imaging metrics for HNSCC and to expand this imaging technique to additional patients in prospective cohorts of patients with HNSCC.

This the propose to use the Multiphase Optimization Strategy Trial (MOST) design to identify an anal HSIL screening algorithm which is most suitable in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, and economy. Specifically, The Investigators will use a factorial design as the main strategy in the MOST, as this allows the evaluation of multiple intervention components that are candidates for ultimate inclusion in the algorithm. The Investigators will then implement the most suitable anal HSIL screening algorithm in the clinic, using the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance) framework to guide its design, implementation, and evaluation. An interrupted time series will be used to compare anal HSIL screening uptake among men who have sex with men clients in the clinic, prior to and after the implementation of the new anal HSIL screening algorithm, and mixed-methods approaches will be used to evaluate components of the RE-AIM framework.

This phase I trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of using two imaging techniques, indium In 111 panitumumab (111In-panitumumab) with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) and panitumumab-IRDye800 fluorescence imaging during surgery (intraoperative), to detect disease in patients with head and neck cancer. 111In-panitumumab is an imaging agent made of a monoclonal antibody that has been labeled with a radioactive molecule called indium In 111. The agent targets and binds to receptors on tumor cells. This allows the cells to be visualized and assessed with SPECT/CT imaging techniques. SPECT is special type of CT scan in which a small amount of a radioactive drug is injected into a vein and a scanner is used to make detailed images of areas inside the body where the radioactive material is taken up by the cells. CT is an imaging technique for examining structures within the body by scanning them with x-rays and using a computer to construct a series of cross-sectional scans along a single axis. Panitumumab-IRDye800 is an imaging agent composed of panitumumab, a monoclonal antibody, linked to a fluorescent dye called IRDye800. Upon administration, panitumumab-IRDye800 targets and binds to receptors on tumor cells. This allows the tumor cells to be detected using fluorescence imaging during surgery. Adding 111In-panitumumab SPECT/CT imaging to intraoperative panitumumab-IRDye800 fluorescence imaging may be more effective at detecting disease in patients with head and neck cancer.

This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of carrelizumab plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy compared with placebo plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of patients with inoperably advanced esophageal cancer, and to explore the relationship between PD-L1 expression and efficacy in tumor tissues. Experimental group: carrelizumab in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy PD-1: carrelizumab: 200 mg/3W Chemotherapy: Paclitaxel: 50 mg/m2/W Cisplatin: 25mg/m2/W Radiotherapy: 50.4 Gy / 28 f Chemotherapy drugs are used for 5 cycles, and carrelibizumab is used for up to 24 months until PD or is intolerable Control group: placebo-resistant in combination with chemoradiotherapy placebo: 200 mg/3 W Chemotherapy: Paclitaxel: 50 mg/m2/W Cisplatin: 25mg/m2/W Radiotherapy: 50.4 Gy / 28 f Chemotherapy drugs are used for 5 cycles, and carrelibizumab is used for up to 24 months until PD or is intolerable
