Active clinical trials for "Uterine Cervical Neoplasms"

Locally advanced cervical cancer at higher risk for recurrence (HRLACC) following concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy. This is a group of participants with a significant unmet need. The estimated probability of disease recurrence or death within 4 years of diagnosis is 50% and the prognosis is very grave for those who experience a recurrence. The purpose of the study was to compare the disease free survival (DFS) of ADXS11-001 to placebo administered following cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy and radiation (CCRT) with curative intent in participants with HRLACC.

Protocol V503-021 is a long-term follow-up study of the V503-001 base study (NCT00543543) to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity, and long-term effectiveness of V503 vaccine in preventing cervical cancer and related precancers caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58. Because of the high retention of V503-001 participants from the Nordic countries, and the highly efficient screening and surveillance system there, study V503-021 will evaluate only participants from V503-001 sites in Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. The hypothesis being tested is that V503 vaccine will remain effective for at least 14 years after the start of vaccination.

Among the immune cell therapy, autologous adoptive immune cell therapy is a method to transfer the immune cells derived from peripheral white blood cells and expanded and stimulated with various cytokines and tumor specific antigens in cancer patients. Recently, the low-dose radiation is known to increase the immune response in many human cancer patients. In a clinical trial, 70% response rate with combination of low-dose radiation and adoptive immune cell therapy was reported in recurrent melanoma patients. This study is to investigate the feasibility of combination of low-dose radiation and autologous immune cell therapy in recurrent cervical cancer which is resistant to conventional palliative treatment.

Our primary hypothesis is that [18F]FLT PET can identify active bone marrow in addition to metabolically active tumor. This trial will use FLT-PET imaging to define areas of active bone marrow in the pelvis. The radiation plan is then designed to spare that area, in hopes of keeping the bone marrow active during therapy. Bone marrow and tumor activity will be monitored using a sequence of FLT PET scans during the course of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of laparoscopic ovarian transposition in women less than 40 years of age with locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma

Objectives: Primary: To estimate the efficacy of bevacizumab and paclitaxel in patients with recurrent small cell, large cell, and neuroendocrine cervical and uterine cancers, as measured by progression-free survival. Secondary: To estimate the efficacy of bevacizumab and paclitaxel in patients with recurrent small cell, large cell, and neuroendocrine cervical and uterine cancers, as measured by overall survival. To determine the response rates in patients with recurrent small cell, large cell, and neuroendocrine cervical and uterine cancers when treated with bevacizumab and paclitaxel. To characterize the quality of life (QoL) in patients with recurrent small cell, large cell, and neuroendocrine cervical and uterine cancers when treated with bevacizumab and paclitaxel. To determine the nature and degree of toxicity in patients with advanced or recurrent small cell, large cell, or neuroendocrine cervical and uterine cancers when treated with bevacizumab and paclitaxel.

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer. Secondary purposes are to describe the toxicity profile in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer treated with the combination of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin and to determine the response rate and time to progression in patients with persistent, recurrent, or advanced stage cervical cancer treated with the combination of topotecan when given weekly with cisplatin.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness liposomal doxorubicin in treating patients who have persistent or recurrent cancer of the cervix.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of gemcitabine in treating patients who have persistent or recurrent cancer of the cervix.

The HIPPO PROJECT is a randomized healthcare study nested in the OCCSP in Poland. This project will assess the performance of the new screening test (HR HPV test) before its implementation in Poland.
