Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Squamous Cell"

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether genomic based risk-stratification can be used in deciding whether to de-intensify in patients with Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-associated Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OPSCC) with > 10 pack years smoking history. Hypothesis: Patients with HPV-associated OPSCC, > 10 pack years smoking history, and non-mutated p53 will have similar 2 year progression-free survival (PFS) as patients with < 10 pack years smoking history.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of the neoadjuvant therapy, nivolumab with CF (5-FU, CDDP) or nivolumab with DCF (5-FU, CDDP, DTX), for locally advanced esophageal carcinoma.

The aim of the study is to determine if intervening with combined local therapy and chemotherapy prior to chemotherapy alone in patients with oligorecurrent and oligometastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma led to significant improvements in progression-free survival (PFS).

This Phase I/Ib study is a Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Study of GZ17-6.02 Monotherapy and in Combination with Capecitabine, Given Orally on a Daily Schedule in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma

Single arm phase II PDR001( 300mg, IV) will be treated every 3 weeks

This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works, with or without BMS986205, in treating patients with stage II-IV squamous cell cancer of the head and neck. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. BMS986205 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving nivolumab with BMS986205 may work better than nivolumab alone in treating patients with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck.

The purpose of this Phase Ib study is to test the safety of NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) and pembrolizumab when used together in participants with melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), urothelial carcinoma, Cervical Cancer, Esophageal Cancer, Gastric Cancer, Hepatocellular Carcinoma, Merkel Cell Carcinoma, Primary Mediastinal Large B-cell Lymphoma, Renal Cell Carcinoma, Small Cell Lung Cancer, microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H)/mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) cancer or for the Treatment of Adult Patients with Unresectable or Metastatic Tumor Mutational Burden-High Solid Tumors. Pembrolizumab is a type of treatment that stimulates the immune system to attack cancer cells. The immune system is normally the body's first defense against threats like cancer. However, sometimes cancer cells produce signals like programmed death-1 (PD-1) that prevent the immune system from detecting and killing them. Pembrolizumab blocks PD-1 so your immune system can detect and attack cancer cells. To help further boost the cancer-fighting ability of your immune system, L-NMMA will be used along with pembrolizumab. L-NMMA is a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor. The presence of nitric oxide synthase in the area around the cancer cells blocks the cancer-fighting ability of the immune system. Thus, the use of L-NMMA and pembrolizumab together may make the immune system work harder to attack and destroy the cancer cells.

This trial is to investigate the use of nivolumab in sequence with standard of care surgery and radiation/chemoradiation in locally advanced oral cavity Squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pembrolizumab, when given after salvage surgery, is effective in increasing the time a person with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck remains disease-free following locoregional disease recurrence.

The study will evaluate whether adjuvant chemo-embolization increases progression free and/or overall survival relative to standard of care radiation and chemo- and/or immunotherapy in cisplatin-ineligible head and neck cancer patients with an acceptable morbidity rate.
