All recruiting trials (17)
-
Docetaxel and SX-682 in head and neck cancers and prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug SX-682 together with docetaxel in adults whose head and neck cancers or prostate cancer have returned or spread.
-
Surgery Plus Postoperative Radiotherapy for T4 Sinonasal Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma
This study tests how well patients with T4 sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma tolerate the standard treatment of surgery followed by postoperative radiotherapy and what their 3-year progression-free survival looks like.
-
Neoadjuvant therapy with anlotinib and epirubicin for T4 sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma
This trial tests whether giving a targeted drug (anlotinib) plus chemotherapy (epirubicin) before surgery helps patients with advanced sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma see better outcomes.
-
Surgery Alone or with Postoperative Radiotherapy for Sinonasal Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma
This study tests whether watching closely after surgery is as safe as adding postoperative radiotherapy for adults with completely removed (R0) early-stage sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma.
-
Becotatug vedotin plus epirubicin before surgery for EGFR-positive unresectable recurrent sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma
This will test whether combining becotatug vedotin with epirubicin can shrink EGFR-positive, unresectable recurrent sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma enough to allow surgery or improve disease control.
-
Epirubicin chemoembolization to shrink sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma
This treatment tries three sessions of targeted transarterial Epirubicin chemoembolization in people with locally advanced sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma to shrink tumors and decide if surgery can be avoided.
-
Puxitatug Samrotecan (P‑Sam) for advanced, recurrent, or metastatic aggressive ACC‑I
This test sees if Puxitatug Samrotecan (P‑Sam) can shrink tumors or slow disease in adults with aggressive, recurrent, or metastatic ACC‑I, especially tumors with NOTCH mutations or low p63 expression.
-
Testing Enfortumab Vedotin for Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma
This study is testing if a new drug called enfortumab vedotin can help people with advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma feel better when other treatments aren't an option.
-
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors that express c-Kit
This study is testing a new drug for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific marker called c-Kit to see if it is safe and how well it works.
-
Evaluating Ivonescimab for advanced salivary gland cancers
This study is testing a new treatment called Ivonescimab to see if it can help people with advanced salivary gland cancers feel better and improve their health.
-
Evaluating HG146 for patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma
This study is testing a new treatment called HG146 to see if it can help people with recurrent or metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma feel better and manage their disease.
-
Treatment of advanced Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma with REM-422
This study is testing a new oral medication called REM-422 to see if it can safely shrink tumors in people with advanced Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma that keeps coming back or has spread.
-
CB-103 combined with lenvatinib or abemaciclib for NOTCH-activated adenoid cystic carcinoma
This study tests whether combining the NOTCH inhibitor CB-103 with either lenvatinib or abemaciclib can slow tumor growth in adults with NOTCH-activated advanced or metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma.
-
Testing a new drug called XMT-1660 for solid tumors
This study is testing a new drug called XMT-1660 to see if it is safe and effective for people with hard-to-treat solid tumors like triple negative breast cancer and ovarian cancer.
-
Early treatment of metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma with focused radiation therapy
This study is testing if starting focused radiation therapy early can help people with a specific type of cancer that has spread to a few places feel better and live longer compared to standard treatment.
-
Carbon ion irradiation for adenoid cystic carcinoma
This study is testing if carbon ion therapy can be a more effective and quicker treatment for people with adenoid cystic carcinoma, a rare type of head and neck tumor.
-
Treatment of solid tumors or lymphoma with VMD-928
This study is testing a new oral medication called VMD-928 to see if it can help adults with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma that haven't improved with standard treatments.
NIH-funded research (6)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Exploring understudied proteins as potential drug targets for adenoid cystic carcinoma
A small NIH grant is funding a patient-focused look at rare salivary gland cancer to find new proteins that could become targeted treatments.
-
DNA methylation clues to predict and guide ACC treatment
This project looks at DNA methylation patterns in adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) to find markers that predict how aggressive the cancer will be and how patients might respond to therapy.
-
Salivary gland cancer: how nerves may drive growth and how to stop it
Aims to understand how nerve signals help adenoid cystic carcinoma grow and test therapies that could interrupt those signals to help patients.
-
Genetic changes and target genes in adenoid cystic carcinoma
Researchers are analyzing genetic changes in adenoid cystic carcinoma tumors to find gene targets that could lead to better tests and treatments for people with ACC.
-
Using tumor and blood DNA methylation to predict outcomes and guide treatment for adenoid cystic carcinoma
This project looks at DNA methylation patterns in tumor tissue and blood to help predict how adenoid cystic carcinoma will behave and to guide treatment choices for people with ACC.
-
Using DNA Methylation to Improve Treatment for Salivary Gland Cancer
This study is looking at how changes in DNA can help doctors understand different types of adenoid cystic carcinoma, a kind of salivary gland cancer, by checking tumor samples and blood from patients to find clues that could improve treatment and track how the disease is doing.
