New Combination | NCT00186888 ↗ | Study of Treatment for Patients With Cancer of the Eye -Retinoblastoma | Active, not recruiting | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 3 | 2005-04-07 | Retinoblastoma is a childhood cancer which affects the retina of the eye. The retina is the light sensitive layer of tissue that lines the back of the eyeball; sends visual messages through the optic nerve to the brain. When only one eye is affected, this is known as unilateral retinoblastoma and when both eyes are affected, it is called bilateral retinoblastoma. Treatment for retinoblastoma is individualized for each patient and is based on the form and the stage of the disease (inside the eye or has moved outside). The main goal is always to cure the cancer, and save the life of the child. Treatments are also designed with the hope of saving the vision, while completely destroying the tumor. Therapies may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and other treatments called focal treatments. Focal treatments may be laser therapy, freezing, or heat treatments meant to shrink and kill the tumor. In this study, researchers want to investigate how different participants respond to different therapies that are individualized specifically for them. Participants will be divided into three main groups, depending on whether the disease is unilateral or bilateral, and the stage of the disease. One of the main objectives of the study is to investigate how advanced tumors in children with bilateral disease respond to a new combination of chemotherapy with topotecan and vincristine, with G-CSF support. In order to improve results, some children with very advanced disease may receive carboplatin chemotherapy given around the eye at the same time that they receive topotecan by vein. Also, because children with retinoblastoma are diagnosed so early in life and the vision may be significantly impaired, this study will investigate how children develop and how the brain adjusts and compensates for the visual deficits. Finally, this study also investigates the biology of retinoblastoma, in order to understand better how this cancer develops. |

New Combination | NCT05156970 ↗ | Camrelizumab in Combination With Chemotherapy or Apatinib Mesylate as First-Line Treatment for R/M HNSCC | Recruiting | Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University | Phase 2 | 2021-06-24 | This study is the first clinical study of first-line treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with drugs targeting VEGF signaling pathway combined with PD-1 inhibitors in China, which explores the new combination therapies urgently needed in clinical practice and lays a foundation for subsequent studies, with important scientific research significance and clinical value. |

All Clinical Trials for PARAPLATIN
Trial ID | Title | Status | Sponsor | Phase | Start Date | Summary |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
NCT00002852 ↗ | Surgery With or Without Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Stage I Non-small Cell Lung Cancer | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 3 | 1996-10-01 | Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of surgery with or without combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have stage I non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether surgery is more effective with or without chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer. |
NCT00002944 ↗ | Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Children With Progressive Brain Tumors | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 3 | 1997-04-01 | RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying two different combination chemotherapy regimens and comparing how well they work in treating children with low-grade astrocytomas or other residual tumors of the brain. |
NCT00002944 ↗ | Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Children With Progressive Brain Tumors | Completed | Children's Oncology Group | Phase 3 | 1997-04-01 | RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying two different combination chemotherapy regimens and comparing how well they work in treating children with low-grade astrocytomas or other residual tumors of the brain. |
NCT00003093 ↗ | Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Children With Neuroblastoma | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 3 | 1988-03-01 | RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. Combination chemotherapy plus surgery may be an effective treatment for neuroblastoma. PURPOSE: This phase III trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy followed by surgery works in treating young patients with neuroblastoma. |
