Esophageal cancer, which has a low 5-year overall survival rate (\<20%) is increasing in incidence. Previous studies have shown that Hedgehog, AKT, and angiogenic signaling pathways are activated in a significant number of esophageal cancers. Itraconazole, a widely used anti-fungal medication, effectively inhibits these pathways. In this multi-site phase II …
Lymph node metastases are a strong prognostic predictor for pancreatic cancer. Para-aortic lymph nodes (PALN) are the final nodes for periampullary cancers before the cancer cells enter the systemic lymphatic circulation. Some consider these nodes to be regional lymph nodes and dissect them as a part of a routine lymphadenectomy …
This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy with or without radiation or surgery works in treating participants with esophageal or gastric cancer that has spread to less than 3 places in the body (oligometastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop …
This is a first-in-human phase I/II study to examine the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of VLS-1488 in subjects with advanced cancers.
Participants will have a sample of their white blood cells, called T cells, collected using a procedure called leukapheresis. The collected T cells will be sent to a laboratory at Memorial Sloan Kettering to be changed (modified) to become MSLN-targeted CAR T cells, the CAR T-cell therapy that participants will …
Rebleeding rate is high in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with variceal bleeding despite conventional endoscopic therapies for esophageal and gastric varices (EV, GV). Secondary prevention of variceal rebleeding was reported to improve outcomes of HCC patients, but the optimal endoscopic approach is not well defined. In this difficult-to-manage population, variceal …
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer. Hepatectomy is a curable and effective method. However, the recurrence rate is as high as 50%\~70% in 5 years after surgery. Perioperative treatment with immunotherapy combined with target therapy is expected to improve the patient's prognosis. This study aims to …
This is a single arm phase II study of pemigatinib and durvalumab combination in patients with FGFR-2 fusion or rearrangement positive intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Each cycle will be 3 weeks. Pemigatinib is administered at 13.5 mg orally daily 2 weeks on and 1 week off. Durvalumab is administered at 1500 mg …
Through a retrospective study of patients who underwent comprehensive treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University, we explored the risk factors related to the sensitivity of comprehensive treatment. We used the PD-L1 expression level of patients before comprehensive treatment,characteristic morphology of tertiary lymphoid structures, as …
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare aggressive malignant tumor. According to the literature, the 5-year survival rate of ACC is 12%-47%. For patients with advanced ACC, mitotane alone or combined with traditional chemotherapy was the first-line standard treatment, but its progression-free survival was only about 1 year. The efficacy of …
