Thymic Carcinoma

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug Sac-TMT works to treat Thymic Carcinoma. It will also learn about the safety of Sac-TMT. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How effective is drug Sac-TMT in treating Thymic Carcinoma? * What adverse events (AEs) do participants have when taking drug Sac-TMT? Participants will: * Progress after at least one platinum-based chemotherapy treatment. * Take drug Sac-TMT every 2 weeks. * Take tumor response assessments every 6 weeks.

This is a multi-center, open-label, single-arm, prospective interventional study evaluating hypofractionated adjuvant radiotherapy (HART) after radical thymothymectomy in patients with thymic epithelial tumors. The study estimates 5-year local control and prospectively characterizes acute and late treatment-related adverse events, quality of life, cardiopulmonary function, and patterns of failure. Photon therapy and proton therapy are both protocol-acceptable modalities and are selected by shared decision-making rather than randomization.

This Phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of target-selected CAR-natural killer (CAR-NK) cells in adults with relapsed or refractory B2 thymoma or thymic carcinoma. Participants undergo centralized tumor antigen assessment (CD30, CD5, and mesothelin). Based on the dominant and clinically actionable antigen expression profile, each participant is assigned to one of three parallel cohorts (CD30-CAR-NK, CD5-CAR-NK, or mesothelin-CAR-NK). All cohorts use the same lymphodepleting conditioning regimen followed by CAR-NK infusion(s).

The aims of this study are to verify the feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of the combination of enrolizumab and radiotherapy for neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced thymic carcinoma, and to provide recommendations for the establishment of unified evaluation criteria for the neoadjuvant therapy of thymic cancer by evaluating the pathological remission status of thymic cancer specimens after neoadjuvant treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the role of adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with thymic carcinoma and completed resection. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does adjuvant chemotherapy decrease disease progression? 2. Does medium dose of three drugs (paclitaxel, cisplatin, 5-FU) well tolerance? Researchers will compare chemoradiotherapy to radiotherapy to see whether chemoradiotherapy could decrease disease progression or not. Participants will: 1. Take radiotherapy (50Gy/25f) with or without 4 cycles of chemotherapy (TPF). 2. Follow up every 3 months in the first two year, and then every 6 months.

The goal of this clinical trial (Phase II) is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Adebrelimab combined with chemoradiation in patients with locally advanced thymic carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is neoadjuvant therapy with Adebrelimab plus chemoradiation effective? * Is this combination treatment safe and tolerable in this patient population? Participants will: * Receive 2-4 cycles of neoadjuvant Adebrelimab combined with a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen (such as carboplatin plus paclitaxel) and concurrent radiotherapy prior to surgery. * Undergo re-staging imaging to assess tumor response and determine surgical candidacy. * Undergo surgical resection if the tumor is resectable after neoadjuvant treatment. * Receive adjuvant Adebrelimab therapy for up to one year following surgery. * Undergo regular follow-up visits for safety monitoring and survival assessment.

The goal of this observational study is to explore the effectiveness of electrocautery resection combined with hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) in patients with thymic epithelial tumors with pleural metastasis or recurrence. The study aims to: * Evaluate whether this combined treatment improves event-free survival in patients with pleural metastasis from thymic epithelial tumors * Assess the rates of grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events * Examine how this treatment affects patients' quality of life Participants will: * Undergo extended thymectomy with electrocautery resection of pleural metastases * Receive two cycles of hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy with cisplatin and doxorubicin at 42-43°C, 2-4 days apart * Complete quality of life questionnaires (EQ-5D) at baseline and regular intervals * Have regular follow-up visits with imaging and clinical assessments for up to 36 months to monitor for disease recurrence or progression

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effect of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy in adult patients with advanced thymoma and thymic carcinoma after progressing on at least one prior line of therapy. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the overall response rate (ORR) in patients with advanced thymoma and thymic carcinoma? Participants will: * receive a fixed dose of 10 mg/kg given intravenously, once weekly on Days 1 and 8 of continuous 21-day treatment cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity * have regular blood tests, scans, and examinations to monitor their health. * have blood and a biopsy of their tumor for research purposes.

It is an open-lable, single-arm, single-center, phase II clinical trial conducted in China, and plan to recruiting 20 patients who were progressed after first line chemotherapy or chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tislelizumab combined with anlotinib as second-line in thymoma and thymic carcinoma.

This study is a single-arm, open-label, dose-escalating + dose-expansion clinical study, aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD70-targeted CAR-T cell preparations, and to preliminarily observe the study drug in CD70-positive advanced malignant tumors. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of CAR-T cell preparations for the treatment of patients with CD70-positive advanced malignancies were obtained and the recommended dose and infusion schedule.

Thymic malignancies are the most common tumors of the anterior mediastinum, though surgery and radiation often effectively treat thymic carcinomas, a minority continue to progress and eventually lead to death. Therefore, there is an unmet need for more effective therapies for thymic malignancies. Considering the role of molecular alterations has yet to be defined in the treatment of thymoma and thymic malignancies, there is an urgent recognition that molecular alterations in the thymic malignancies are important to predict response and survival for novel targeted therapies. In summary, identification of genetic alterations in thymic malignancies is increasingly essential to perform molecular diagnostics and individualized treatments. This project aims to create a registry of patients with thymic malignancies to further the characterization of molecular alterations and develop (novel) treatments based on the detection.

Thymic epithelial tumors are rare neoplasms in the anterior mediastinum. The cornerstone of the treatment is surgical resection. Administration of postoperative radiotherapy is usually indicated in patients with more extensive local disease, incomplete resection and/or more aggressive subtypes, defined by the WHO histopathological classification. In this classification thymoma types A, AB, B1, B2, B3, and thymic carcinoma are distinguished. Studies have shown large discordances between pathologists in subtyping these tumors. Moreover, the WHO classification alone does not accurately predict the risk of recurrence, as within subtypes patients have divergent prognoses. The investigators will develop AI models using digital pathology and relevant clinical variables to improve the accuracy of histopathological classification of thymic epithelial tumors, and to better predict the risk of recurrence. In this multicentric and international project three existing databases will be used from Rotterdam, Maastricht and Lyon. For all models one database will be used to build AI models, and the other two for external validation. The ultimate goal of this project is to develop AI models that support the pathologist in correctly subtyping thymic epithelial tumors, in order to prevent patients from under- or overtreatment with adjuvant radiotherapy.
