Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

Background: Head and neck cancers (HNCs) account for about 5% of all cancers worldwide. They grow in the mouth, throat, nasal cavity, or salivary glands. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the United States. Survival rates for these cancers are lower than 50% if they spread to other parts of the body or return after treatment. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a new drug (SX-682), combined with an approved drug (docetaxel, or DTX), in people with HNCs or prostate cancer. Eligibility People aged 18 years and older with an HNC or prostate cancer that has returned after treatment or has spread. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests, imaging scans, and a test of their heart function. A tissue sample (biopsy) of the tumor may be taken. Participants will take the study drugs in 3-week cycles. SX-682 is a tablet taken by mouth twice a day from Days 1 to 11 of each cycle. Participants will get a supply of the drug to take home. DTX is given on Day 8 of each cycle through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. Participants will come to the clinic on Days 1 and 8 of every cycle. They will take both drugs for up to 6 cycles. Participants will have follow-up visits 1 week and 1 month after they finish taking the drugs. Follow-ups will continue every 3 months for 2 years. Then they will have phone or email check-ins twice a year until 5 years have passed.

A Study of Emi-Le in Participants with Solid Tumors

The goal of this study is to determine the safety and antitumor effects of REM-422, a MYB mRNA degrader, in people with advanced Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma (ACC)

This observational study follows patients with T4 stage sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (a rare cancer of the nasal cavity/sinuses) who receive standard treatment: surgery followed by postoperative radiotherapy. The main goal is to measure the 3-year progression-free survival rate (the percentage of patients alive without cancer growth or spread). We will also assess overall survival, recurrence, side effects, and quality of life. This multicenter, prospective study will provide much-needed real-world data to improve patient counseling and guide future research.

T4 stage sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SNACC) is a rare but aggressive cancer in the nasal cavity and sinuses. These tumors often invade the skull base, eye socket, or brain covering (dura), making complete surgical removal difficult and carrying a high risk of recurrence even after surgery and radiation. The goal of this study is to test whether a new combination of drugs given before surgery - anlotinib (a targeted therapy) plus epirubicin (a chemotherapy drug) - can improve outcomes for patients with T4 SNACC. This is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, phase II clinical trial. Eligible participants will receive 2 cycles of neoadjuvant treatment (anlotinib orally for 2 weeks on/1 week off, plus epirubicin intravenously on day 1 of each 3-week cycle). After completing neoadjuvant therapy, participants will undergo surgery to remove the tumor, followed by postoperative radiotherapy. The main question the study tries to answer is whether this approach increases the 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate compared to the historical rate of about 70% with standard treatment (surgery plus radiotherapy alone). Secondary questions include how many tumors shrink after neoadjuvant treatment, how many operations achieve complete removal with negative margins, major pathological response rates, overall survival, safety, quality of life, and the chance of avoiding disfiguring surgeries (such as removal of the eye or part of the skull). The study will enroll about 76 participants from 5 top medical centers in China. If positive, this study may establish a new standard of care for T4 SNACC.

Background: Sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare type of cancer that starts in the nasal cavity or sinuses. Although surgery can remove the tumor, doctors often recommend radiation therapy after surgery to reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. However, radiation can cause long-term side effects such as bone damage, dry mouth, or difficulty opening the mouth. For patients whose tumor has been completely removed (called R0 resection) and who have early-stage disease (T1-T3) without spread to lymph nodes or other organs, it is not clear whether routine radiation therapy is always needed. Study Objective: This study aims to find out whether simply watching and waiting (surgery alone) is not worse than adding radiation therapy (surgery plus radiation) in terms of keeping patients free from cancer for at least 3 years. If surgery alone is shown to be as good as surgery plus radiation, some patients may be able to avoid the side effects of radiation. Study Design: This is a prospective, multicenter, real-world study. It is not a randomized trial - patients and their doctors will decide together whether to have radiation after surgery. We will follow about 200 patients from many hospitals across China. About half will receive surgery alone, and the other half will receive surgery followed by radiation therapy. All patients will be followed for at least 3 years. Hypothesis: We hypothesize that surgery alone is not inferior to surgery plus radiation therapy for 3-year disease-free survival, with a non-inferiority margin of a hazard ratio of 1.35. In other words, even if surgery alone has a slightly higher risk of cancer returning, the difference is small enough that avoiding radiation side effects may still be worthwhile. Main Outcome: The main outcome is the percentage of patients who are alive and free from cancer recurrence (local, regional, or distant) or death from any cause at 3 years after treatment. Potential Impact: If our hypothesis is confirmed, this study could change current practice. Many patients with completely resected, early-stage sinonasal ACC might safely avoid postoperative radiation and its long-term side effects, improving their quality of life without compromising cancer control.

This prospective, multicenter clinical study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant therapy with MRG003 (Becotatug vedotin) combined with epirubicin in patients with EGFR-positive, unresectable recurrent sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SNACC). The primary question is whether this combination can achieve a sufficient objective response rate (ORR) to enable subsequent radical surgery or improve disease control.

This study is for patients with locally advanced sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SNACC), a rare and challenging cancer that tends to invade nerves and the skull base. The research aims to test a new precise treatment strategy. First, all participants will receive three sessions of "interventional chemotherapy" (transarterial chemoembolization) with the drug Epirubicin, which delivers high-dose chemotherapy directly to the tumor to shrink it as much as possible. About 4-6 weeks after the third session, doctors will use MRI scans to evaluate how well the tumor responded. Based on this response, patients will follow one of two personalized treatment paths: those whose tumors did not completely disappear will undergo surgery followed by radiotherapy; those whose tumors show complete disappearance on imaging will receive precise radiotherapy alone, potentially avoiding major surgery. This is a prospective, multicenter study. The main goals are to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this response-adapted strategy and to see if it can improve outcomes for patients with this difficult-to-treat cancer.

Then the second stage will continue to enroll 100 Particapants.

Adenoid cystic tumors are rare tumors of the head and neck region. Despite their slow growth, re-irradiation is often necessary due to the high metastatic risk. Patients are usually irradiated with photons or, as here at the Heidelberg University Hospital, with a combination of carbon ions and photons. So far, there is no data from Europe available for the sole irradiation with carbon ions. The present ACCO (Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma and Carbon ion Only irradiation) study, a prospective, open-label, phase II, single-arm, investigator-initiated study, will therefore investigate the sole radiotherapy of carbon ions in this tumor entity. Irradiation is applied - significantly shorter than the combination therapy - in about 4 weeks (22 fractions); patients are followed up for further 5 years after the start of therapy. Carbon ions alone are expected to increase local tumor control rates from 60% to 70% after 5 years (primary objective criterion of this study). In order to reject the null hypothesis with a power of 80% and a significance level of 5%, 175 patients are included (including a drop-out rate of 15%). Secondary objective criteria are progression-free survival, overall survival, acute and late toxicity, and quality of life.
