Clinical trials

This phase III trial compares standard of care hormone therapy plus ribociclib to chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy plus ribociclib for the treatment of patients with high anatomic stage breast cancer with low risk of the cancer returning (low risk recurrence). Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hormone therapy, with letrozole, anastrozole or exemestane, lowers the amount of estrogen made by the body. This may help stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Hormone therapy plus ribociclib may work as well as chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy plus ribociclib for the treatment of high anatomic stage breast cancer with low recurrence risk.

This phase II trial compares the effect of intensity-modulated post-operative radiation therapy (I²-PORT) followed by standard of care therapy (chemotherapy or immunotherapy) to standard of care therapy alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have remaining lymph node cancer after surgery. Radiation therapy uses high-energy X-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy is a type of 3-dimensional radiation therapy that uses computer-generated images to show the size and shape of the tumor. Thin beams of radiation of different intensities are aimed at the tumor from many angles. This type of radiation therapy reduces the damage to healthy tissue near the tumor. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Adding I²-PORT radiation therapy to standard therapy may be more effective than standard therapy alone in reducing the risk of cancer returning in those who have undergone surgery for NSCLC.

This phase III trial compares total ablative therapy and usual systemic therapy to usual systemic therapy alone in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to up to 4 body sites (limited metastatic). The usual approach for patients who are not participating in a study is treatment with intravenous (IV) (through a vein) and/or oral medications (systemic therapy) to help stop the cancer sites from getting larger and the spread of the cancer to additional body sites. Ablative means that the intention of the local treatment is to eliminate the cancer at that metastatic site. The ablative local therapy will consist of very focused, intensive radiotherapy called stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) with or without surgical resection and/or microwave ablation, which is a procedure where a needle is temporarily inserted in the tumor and heat is used to destroy the cancer cells. SABR, surgical resection, and microwave ablation have been tested for safety, but it is not scientifically proven that the addition of these treatments are beneficial for your stage of cancer. The addition of ablative local therapy to all known metastatic sites to the usual approach of systemic therapy could shrink or remove the tumor(s) or prevent the tumor(s) from returning.

To explore the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody in the treatment of unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis through a prospective study, providing high-level evidence-based medical evidence for the use of SBRT combined with PD-1 inhibitors in the treatment of unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis.

This clinical trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the triplet combination of trastuzumab deruxtecan (ENHERTU, T-DXd, DS-8201a) plus a fluoropyrimidine plus pembrolizumab versus standard of care (SoC) chemotherapy plus trastuzumab plus pembrolizumab as first-line therapy in participants with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive tumor PD-L1 CPS ≥1 gastric or GEJ cancer in the Main Cohort. An Exploratory Cohort will also be evaluated to assess the efficacy and safety of T-DXd plus a fluoropyrimidine versus SoC chemotherapy plus trastuzumab in participants with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive tumor PD-L1 CPS \<1 gastric or GEJ cancer.

This is phase 2 trial of neoadjuvant therapy and short-course radiotherapy in resectable rectal cancer.

This study is for people who have anal cancer and have not yet had treatment. The regular treatment for people who have anal cancer is chemoradiation therapy (CRT). CRT is when chemotherapy and radiation therapy are given at the same time. Studies show that CRT works well to treat anal cancer and prevents many people from needing surgery which may require a colostomy bag. Doctors know that CRT is an effective way to treat anal cancer. But, they are doing studies to find out how much dose of radiation and chemotherapy should be given during the CRT. Higher doses of chemotherapy and radiation could increase the risk of side effects, but lowering the dose of chemoradiation has the risk of not being as effective to treat the cancer. One way to predict whether participants need higher or lower doses of radiation therapy is to do a blood test called ctDNA (circulating tumor DNA) to test for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV). This test is done at certain times while participants are getting CRT. This has been shown to be a marker for the presence of anal cancer. In this study, doctors will tailor lower versus higher doses of CRT based on the tumor response that is measured by ctDNA. The purpose of this study is to see if customizing the dose of chemoradiation based on the amount of ctDNA will increase survival in participants with anal cancer and/or decrease the risk of side effects. Some participants in this study whose cancer does not respond as well to the CRT may have the opportunity to receive a drug called Retifanlimab that stimulates the body's immune system. Retifanlimab is approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for treating anal cancer that is recurrent or metastatic since there is proven benefit in these situations.

This study plans to enroll participants with previously treated metastatic pancreatic cancer and harbor centrally confirmed KRAS G12D mutation. These participants are required to experience disease progression on or after at least one prior standard systemic therapy containing fluorouracil or gemcitabine, and either progressed on or were intolerant to the last treatment. Eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to the experimental group or the control group for treatment.

This study plans to initiate a prospective, randomized controlled trial to investigate the optimal timing of antibody drug conjugate (ADC) therapy in the management of advanced Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. Primary Objective: To compare the difference in PFS2 (Time from randomization to disease progression after second therapy) between antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) followed by chemotherapy versus chemotherapy followed by ADC in the treatment of advanced HER2-negative breast cancer. Secondary Objectives: To compare overall survival (OS), adverse events, patient-reported outcomes, and cost-effectiveness between the two treatment sequences. Additionally, to identify potential biomarkers predictive of benefit from frontline ADC therapy.

Esophageal cancer (EC) ranks among the leading malignant gastrointestinal tumors globally in terms of both incidence and mortality. Cases of EC in China account for over 50% of the global total, with squamous cell carcinoma being the primary pathological type. Locally advanced EC (LAEC), particularly cases where radical surgical resection is not feasible, exhibits high recurrence rates and low 5-year survival rates. However, studies have shown that patients with LAEC who undergo comprehensive treatment followed by surgery experience significantly prolonged survival and improved quality of life compared to those who do not receive surgical intervention. Current conversion treatment regimens under investigation include: chemotherapy alone, chemoradiotherapy, immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy, and immunotherapy combined with chemoradiotherapy-each of these approaches has distinct advantages and limitations. Immunochemotherapy has emerged as a current research focus: it not only demonstrates significantly superior efficacy compared to chemotherapy alone but also exhibits lower cumulative toxicity than radiotherapy-combined conversion regimens, resulting in a more favorable overall benefit-risk ratio. As such, it represents the most promising conversion treatment strategy. Retrospective and prospective clinical studies have shown that low-dose radiotherapy targeting the small intestine can enhance the anti-tumor response of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with advanced solid tumor, prolong their overall survival, and increase the incidence of the abscopal effect. Further mechanistic investigations have revealed that intestinal low-dose radiotherapy (ILDR) may augment the immune cancerous lethality by modulating the gut microbiota and their metabolic profiles. Based on the findings from these preliminary studies, the current research plans to conduct a prospective phase II single-arm clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of ILDR combined with immunochemotherapy as conversion therapy in patients with borderline resectable or unresectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (BR/UR ESCC). This research plans to enroll at least 39 evaluable cases or a total of 43 cases in two seperated stages, focusing on patients with thoracic BR/UR ESCC. Patients will receive a single fraction of ILDR with a mean dose of 1 Gy, concurrently with 3 cycles of albumin-bound paclitaxel (260 mg/m² on day 1), cisplatin (75 mg/m² on day 1), and tislelizumab (200 mg on day 1). The efficacy and safety of the treatment will be evaluated throughout the study.

This study is being done to learn more about a new medicine called PF-08634404. The study team wants to understand how well PF-08634404 works when given alone or with chemotherapy . Chemotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that uses medicines to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing. The study is for adults with Transformed Small Cell Lung Cancer (T-SCLC ). T SCLC is a rare lung cancer that happens when one type of lung cancer changes into a more aggressive type after treatment stops working. To join the study, participants must meet the following conditions: * Are aged 18 years or older * Diagnosed with T-SCLC and have not received treatment for this type of lung cancer (a single cycle of chemotherapy may be permitted) * Prior diagnosis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) * Have healthy organs based on medical tests and are in good physical condition After joining the study, adults will be given chemotherapy in addition to the study medicine. After this combination treatment is finished, the study medicine will be continued alone. Adults will receive the treatment through IV infusions (medicine given directly into a vein). All treatments will be done at clinical study sites, where a trained medical team will monitor adults during and after each visit.

This clinical trial evaluates the effect of radiotherapy doses based on tumor size and tumor-specific characteristics (biologically-adapted) in treating patients with Ewing sarcoma. Radiotherapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Conventional radiotherapy uses minimal imaging support to determine the positioning of radiotherapy. Hypofractionated radiotherapy delivers higher doses of radiotherapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Dose-escalated radiotherapy uses doses that are higher than those used in conventional radiotherapy. Larger tumor sizes and other tumor-specific characteristics have been shown to be related to poorer outcomes. In addition, after dose-escalated radiotherapy, patients with larger tumors have demonstrated improved control of the disease at the primary tumor site. Giving biologically-adapted, dose-escalated radiotherapy may reduce the return of the cancer at the primary tumor site in patients with Ewing sarcoma with large tumors and other unfavorable characteristics. This clinical trial also evaluates the role of biomarkers in patients with Ewing sarcoma. Studying samples of blood and tumor tissue from patients with Ewing sarcoma in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about predicting the amount of disease and the likelihood of the cancer coming back.

This study is being done to learn more about a new medicine called PF-08634404 and how well it works when given with chemotherapy to adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), a fast-growing type of lung cancer that has spread widely in the body. To join the study, participants must meet the following conditions: * Be 18 years or older. * Have extensive-stage small cell lung cancer confirmed by lab tests. * Have not received chemotherapy or radiation for this type of lung cancer. * Be in good physical condition and have healthy organs based on medical tests. The study has two parts: * In the first part, researchers will check how safe the study medicine is and how well people tolerate it when given with chemotherapy. * In the second part, they will compare study medicine plus chemotherapy to another approved treatment (atezolizumab plus chemotherapy) to see which works better. Participants will receive the treatment through IV infusions (medicine given directly into a vein). The treatment will be given in repeated time periods called cycles. Some participants will continue receiving the study medicine alone after the initial treatment.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about a new medicine called PF-08634404, and how well it works in people with cancer of the colon or rectum (CRC)). The goal is to understand if the new study medicine, combined with chemotherapy that is approved for colorectal cancer, can help people whose cancer has spread or returned after treatments taken before. To join the study, participants must meet the following conditions: * Be 18 years or older. * Have colorectal cancer that has spread to other parts of your body. * Be in good enough health to receive study treatment. * Should not be pregnant before starting treatment. Participants will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to one of 2 different treatment arms. The first arm (Arm A) will include the new medicine PF-08634404 in combination with chemotherapy that is approved for colorectal cancer, and the second arm (Arm B) will include an approved medicine for colorectal cancer, called Bevacizumab, in combination with chemotherapy that is approved for this type of cancer. Participants and their doctors will not know which arm they are being assigned to. Participants will receive all the study medications through intravenous (IV) infusions, which means the medicine is given directly into a vein. The treatment will be given in cycles, and participants may continue receiving it if it is helping and they are not experiencing serious side effects. The medicine will be given at a clinical site, where trained medical staff will check participants during and after each treatment. * The study is expected to last approximately 33 months for each participant. * Participants will have regular visits to the study site for treatment, health checks, and tests. * After stopping treatment, participants will return for a final visit about 30 to37 days later to check their health and review any side effects. * Follow-up will continue every 12 weeks by phone or in person or by reviewing health records to check on health status and any new treatments.
