Less extensive surgery after immunotherapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial compares a less extensive surgery to the standard surgery for patients with advanced head and neck cancer who have responded well to initial chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The goal is to see if a smaller operation can be just as effective while causing fewer side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07371611RecruitingPhase 3
Sintilimab plus chemo before and after surgery for advanced oral cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) to standard chemotherapy before and after surgery can improve outcomes for people with advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma. The treatment is given first to shrink the tumor, then again after surgery to help prevent recurrence.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07390838RecruitingPhase 1
Study of SH009 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug called SH009 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07425054RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoradiation with or without immunotherapy for anal cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (retifanlimab) to standard chemoradiation improves outcomes for people with locally advanced anal cancer. The treatment is adjusted based on HPV DNA levels in your blood.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07435454RecruitingPhase 2
Oral paclitaxel plus radiation for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a combination of an oral chemotherapy drug (paclitaxel) and radiation therapy for people with advanced esophageal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It may be an option if you are 70 or older or cannot tolerate IV chemotherapy and have trouble swallowing.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 70 years+ - NCT07445048RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy for high-risk head and neck cancer
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (nimotuzumab) and an immunotherapy (benmelstobart) after surgery and radiation can help prevent cancer from returning in patients with high-risk head and neck cancer who cannot take cisplatin chemotherapy.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07465276RecruitingPhase 2
Two immunotherapies before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (ficerafusp alfa and pembrolizumab) given before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07519486RecruitingPhase 2
