Maintenance Therapy With Toripalimab and Capecitabine Versus Capecitabine Alone in High-risk Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

N3 classification, rENE positivity is a high-risk type of locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. EBV DNA remaining at detectable levels after induction chemotherapy is also a characteristic of high-risk nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Based on the available evidence, patients with high-risk nasopharyngeal carcinoma are recommended to receive oral maintenance therapy to reduce the risk of failure. The purpose of this study was to conduct a prospective, multicenter, randomized phase III clinical trial to determine whether maintenance therapy with triprilimab combined with capecitabine is better than maintenance therapy with capecitabine alone in high-risk nasopharyngeal carcinoma (N3+, rENE+, Detectable EBV DNA after 2 cycles of induction chemotherapy).

Prevent Cancer- Greenville

Prevent Cancer-Greenville was created to provide individuals with the opportunity to have their risk of developing cancer studied. Some individuals may be at a higher risk due to their personal lifestyle, family history and/or exposures. If subjects are found to be at high risk for developing a disease, they will be sent to a healthcare provider for further care.

Study of Neoadjuvant PARP Inhibition Followed by Radical Prostatectomy in Patients With Unfavorable Intermediate-Risk or High-Risk Prostate Cancer With Select HRR Gene Alterations

Phase 2 open-label, single-arm clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant olaparib + LHRH agonist administered for 6 months prior to radical prostatectomy (RP) in men with unfavorable intermediate-risk or high-risk localized prostate cancer. All patients must have confirmed germline or somatic select HRR alterations. Germline and somatic mutation testing will be performed as part of commercially available CLIA assays and will be validated on a uniform platform centrally all patients retrospectively. Eligible patients will receive treatment with olaparib + LHRH agonist. Following 6 months of therapy, patients will undergo RP with mandatory lymph node dissection. The lymph node dissection template will be at the discretion of the treating urologist. RP specimens will undergo pathology blinded independent central review. Following RP, patients will be followed for testosterone recovery and PSA progression.

Taiwan Real-world LDCT Screening Behavior and Outcome Research for High Risk Subjects Based on Health Promotion Administration

Lung cancer is the leading cause of mortality in the world, and also in Taiwan.Despite the researches and availability in new therapies, it causes the highest mortality and is one of the most preventable cancers as well. Smoking is the most common cause of lung cancer worldwide. Compared to lung cancer in smokers, lung cancer in never-smokers is associated with East Asian ethnicity, female sex, and adenocarcinoma histology. This unique risk group is likely to have distinct molecular drivers, especially EGFR, ALK, and ROS1 mutations.In National Taiwan Cancer Registry data, more than half (53%) of all newly diagnosed lung cancer patients and 93% of female patients are lifelong never-smokers. This scenario is common in East Asia. It is essential to develop a different strategy for screening lung cancer patients with other high-risk profiles. Several risk factors have been identified in never-smoking lung cancer and one of the most important factor is a lung cancer family history (LCFH) in a first-degree relative. Other high-risk occupational or environmental factors include air-pollution exposed occupations (such as traffic policeman and street cleaners) for at least 10 years, cooking index ≥ 110, defined as 2/7 \* days cooking by pan frying, stir frying, or deep frying in one week \* years cooking, cooking without using ventilation, passive smoke exposure, and history of pulmonary tuberculosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disorders. As described above, three high risk groups are interested in this study, the previous heavy smokers (group 1); those who has family history (group 2) and those who have high risk occupation or environment factors (group 3). From the published researches, we assume the detection rate to be 1.1% for group 1 based on NLST results16, 2.6% for group 2 (395 out of 12,011 subjects in TALENT), and we assume the detection Group 3 to be 1% after consulting board-certified senior specialists in this field. This is a prospective, multi-center, single arm study in Taiwan of subjects who are eligible to receive LDCT screening based on recommendation of Health Promotion Administration of Taiwan. The primary objective of TRIO part A is the LDCT screening acceptance rate of high lung cancer risk subjects. The primary objective of TRIO part B is the exact lung cancer detection rates in these three groups. Other secondary objectives are also included.

Anal Cancer and/or Precancer Screening: Performance Analysis of the BD Onclarity™ HPV Assay on Anal Specimens

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been implicated as a necessary cause for the development of the majority of anogenital neoplasms which represent approximately 95% of anal tumors. Persistent high risk HR-HPV infection promotes progression from intraepithelial lesions high-grade squamous anal tumors (AIN) (H-SIL) to invasive anal tumors. The diagnosis of AIN is made by cytology or biopsy during routine examinations. To date, no HPV test has been clinically validated for anal specimens and none are available in the molecular diagnostics market for this purpose. The performance analysis of an HPV Test with simultaneous genotyping on anal samples could implement anal cancer screening without an invasive procedure and with one simple approach.

Adjuvant Therapy for High-risk Hepatocellular Carcinoma Post Liver Transplantation

1. Explore the impact of postoperative administration of multi-kinase inhibitors (including sorafenib, lenvatinib, and regorafenib) in conjunction with bevacizumab on post-transplant recurrence, overall survival, and drug safety in liver transplant recipients at high risk of recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma. 2. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of multi-kinase inhibitors in combination with bevacizumab as adjuvant therapy in liver transplant recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma who present high-risk factors for recurrence, based on the one-year recurrence-free survival rate (1-year RFS rate). 3. The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the effectiveness and safety of multi-kinase inhibitors in combination with bevacizumab as adjuvant therapy in liver transplant recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma who present high-risk factors for recurrence, based on the following parameters: Recurrence-free survival (RFS) duration, Overall survival (OS), Two-year and three-year RFS rates, Graft survival, Quality of life evaluation (QoL), Incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events.
