PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate major pathological response rate. (Resectable and borderline resectable groups [treatment naive or previously treated]) II. To estimate 6-month disease control rate. (Locally advanced groups [treatment naive or previously treated])
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To
The success of hypoxia-targeted therapies has so far been limited, a fact widely attributed to the absence of a reliable imaging biomarker for hypoxia that could easily be implemented into a routine clinical workflow. A compelling study has found the presence of hypoxia in pancreatic tumors using
In the light of literature data, it becomes crucial to develop models for studying the functionality of CTCs. In this context, xenograft models in nude mice have recently been described9,10. Establishing cell lines to allow CTC amplification to have enough material to work is an attractive approach.
The prognosis for patients with metastatic disease remains poor. The use of immunotherapy in the treatment of cancer is based on the premise that tumors evade the endogenous immune response by being recognized as self, and not non-self. The recent success of immune-modulating agents in patients with
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States
The American Cancer Society estimates lung cancer incidence in the United States for 2018 to be about 234,030 and about 154,050 deaths.
In 2012, GLOBOCAN estimated that 1.8 million people were diagnosed with lung cancer,
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of one acute exercise bout on tumor hypoxia in patients with localized prostate cancer randomized to one single acute I) High Intensity Interval Training bout compared to (II) usual care and no training prior to radical prostatectomy.

Background: The incidence of adenocarcinoma of the esophagus is rapidly increasing, resulting in 480 000 newly diagnosed patients annually in the world1. Surgery remains the cornerstone of therapy for curable esophageal cancer (EC) patients. After the esophagectomy, the stomach is most commonly used
Given that both Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and PD-L1 appear important in cervical cancer pathogenesis, this study is designed to test the hypothesis that breaking of immune tolerance by PD-1/PD-L1 blockade will enhance the efficacy of anti-VEGF therapy in the treatment of patients
Introduction and rationale:
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most lethal and therapeutically resistant malignancies, with a grim prognosis that is attributed to the late clinical presentation and the relative chemoresistance of the disease.
Even with identical chemotherapy regimens, some
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and its complication, Barrett's esophagus (BE), are risk factors for esophageal adenocarcinoma. In BE, GERD causes inflammation with oxidative DNA damage and genomic instability that contributes to carcinogenesis. In BE, one response to oxidative stress is p38
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the objective response rate (ORR) of cediranib (cediranib maleate) plus olaparib in combination in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors of the following tumor types: non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), pancreatic
Rationale:
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery remains the standard of care for esophageal cancer patients. Both limited local response as well as distant metastases are a common cause of treatment failure. Combining TH-302 with chemo-radiotherapy may improve outcome by:
- Direct
The outcome of esophageal cancer is poor, with an overall 5-year survival rate of 10% worldwide. In resectable esophageal cancer, outcome can be improved by multimodality treatment. The current standard treatment of resectable esophageal cancer consists of neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by
This is a proof of principle trial investigating a heat shock protein gp96 Ig-secreting, allogeneic tumor cell-vaccine (gp96-Ig vaccine) administered in combination with suppression of adenosinergic pathways by oxygen and Theophylline to patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Allogeneic,
