Filter by:RACING (RAmucirumab Combined wIth standard Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine as first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma) trial is a Greek, investigator-initiated, single-arm, open-label phase Ib-II study. Patients with advanced cytologically or histologically proven pancreatic adenocarcinoma will be treated with a combination of Ramucirumab with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine (for a maximum of 8 cycles followed by Ramucirumab maintenance) until disease progression or excessive Adverse Events (AEs) or Investigator's decision or patient's refusal of further treatment or death, whichever comes first.
The investigators hypothesized that with the administration of the nutritional supplement Ocoxin-Viusid® is expected to improve the quality of life and enhance tolerance to chemotherapy in at least 70% of patients diagnosed with advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma, treated at the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Surgical Clinical Hospital. Phase II clinical trial, open, multicenter, nonrandomized.
To evaluate the efficacy of sentinel lymph node biopsy technique in patients with high-risk endometrial carcinoma, which provides the evidence that sentinel lymph node biopsy technique could substitute the systematic Lymph node dissection(LND).
The precision of MRI has improved over the past few years, in particular for the hepatobiliary and pancreatic pathologies. The role of MRI in the management of operated pancreas tumors remains nevertheless unclear and few studies have compared MRI to the actual gold standard (CT). Compared to CT, MRI is not only a morphologic imaging technique but also a functional imaging technique. MRI could therefore evaluate in a non-ionizing and dynamic way several important pre- and postoperative aspects after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). This study on the perioperative role of MRI includes 3 parts: First, CT is known to minimize the real size of the pancreatic tumors and to underestimate the vascular invasion correlated to resectability. The preoperative determination of the resection surgical margins could be improved thanks to the high-contrast resolution of MRI. Moreover, PD is a complex surgery encompassing a fragile anastomosis between the pancreatic parenchyma and the digestive tract. The permeability of the pancreatic anastomosis after PD remains presently unknown and has not been correlated to the clinical state of the patient. MRI associated with secretin injection allows evaluating this permeability, which cannot be done by CT due to the absence of functional evaluation. Finally, present radiological follow-up after PD for tumors of the pancreatic head is performed with CT. The MRI performance has not been demonstrated yet in the context of follow-up. This imaging modality nevertheless offers unique specificities that are very interesting and that could be helpful for the diagnosis of recurrence.
To compare the sensitivity and specificity estimates of Colvera with that of a commercially available CEA test for detection of recurrent disease in CRC subjects who are undergoing surveillance for recurrence.
Currently, it is the standard of care practice to perform daily routine CXR when a chest tube is in situ following pulmonary resection. However, previous research as well as experience of thoracic surgeons suggested this kind of management has poor diagnostic and therapeutic value. Eliminating daily routine CXR for adult patients having undergone pulmonary surgery might decrease the frequency of radiation exposure and hospitalization costs per patient without increasing reintervention rates, length of hospital stays, readmission rates or any adverse events.
This phase II trial studies how well gallium Ga 68 DOTA-NeoBOMB1 and gallium Ga 68 PSMA-R2 positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) work in diagnosing participants with prostate cancer that has come back. Diagnostic procedures, such as gallium Ga 68 DOTA-NeoBOMB1 and gallium Ga 68 PSMA-R2 PET/MRI, may help find and diagnose prostate cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.
A retrospective and prospective data collection study on 27 consecutive subjects with adenocarcinoma who were treated using the MyVaccx system by Dr. Gary Onik. Retrospective data were collected on the treatment with the immunotherapy system and prospective data will be collected as they are prospectively monitored through their normal standard of care for their original cancer.
PanFAM-1 is a clinical study for early detection of pancreatic cancer in high-risk groups. The goals of the study are to assess the performance and diagnostic accuracy of the IMMray™ PanCan-d test compared to standard-of-care imaging.
Retrospective cohort study used to analyze trends in minimally invasive versus open surgery in colorectal surgery, over time, in outcome in the laparoscopic, robotic and open surgery groups in patients receiving colorectal resections. Analysis will be performed using data collected through the American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Project (NSQIP) database, a national database with deidentified data entered by trained nurse data reviewers.
