CRC8 A Randomized Phase III Study of Nivolumab after Combined Modality Therapy (CMT) in High-Risk Anal Cancer has closed to accrual after successfully reaching, and surpassing the target accrual.
This phase III trial investigates how well nivolumab after combined modality therapy works in treating patients with high risk stage II-IIIB anal cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
The SC24 randomized phase II/III study comparing stereotactic body radiotherapy(SBRT) versus conventional palliative radiotherapy (CRT) for patients with spinal metastases has been permanently closed following primary publication.
