Filter by:Rationale: Research on novel methods to screen for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) has expanded. Insight into individuals' drivers and barriers to attend screening is essential to tailor a potential new screening policy to their preferences. Public preferences should also be considered on the organizational level to guarantee client-centered decision-making in the design of the screening process. Objective: This study will examine Dutch individuals' intended uptake of EAC screening, including factors that predict uptake, and their views on its organization. Study design: Cross-sectional population-based survey. Study population: Dutch individuals aged 45-75 years. The required sample size is 2088 and 8350 individuals will be invited based on an assumed participation rate of 25%. Methods: Eligible individuals will be selected from the Dutch population registry (BRP) using simple random sampling. Invitations will be sent by postal mail with participants being directed to a digital survey. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary outcome of the study is the intended uptake of EAC screening (strong vs weak). Secondary study endpoints are the perceived need for consultation, perceived need for general education campaigns, acceptability of risk stratification scenarios, and acceptability of using health care resources for EAC screening. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Subjects will not directly benefit from participating in this study. Nonetheless, participating in this study is not associated with any healthcare risks and the burden for the subjects is very low. The survey has a low burdensome nature and will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes to complete. All data will be pseudonymized, refusal to fill out the survey or desire to withdraw from the study will not have any consequences for the invited subject.
This is an open-label randomized, controlled, multicenter, phase II trial with two arms. Patients with metastatic TTF-1 negative, treatment-naive lung adenocarcinoma without actionable genomic alterations are randomized in a 1:1 manner to investigate the efficiency of atezolizumab, carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel (Arm A) versus pembrolizumab, cis-/carboplatin and pemetrexed (Arm B) as first-line treatment.
This study is designed to perform a explorative search of the transcriptome to detect new circulating diagnostic sensitive and specific biomarkers in patients with Barrett's esophagus or esophageal adenocarcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Tislelizumab in the neoadjuvant (prior to surgery) or adjuvant (after surgery) treatment of previously untreated adults with gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma. The primary study hypotheses are that: Neoadjuvant and adjuvant Tislelizumab plus chemoradiotherapy, followed by adjuvant Tislelizumab and chemotherapy is superior to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy in terms of rate of Pathological Complete Response (pathCR) at the time of surgery.
This is a phase II clinical trial to assess the clinical activity of immunotherapy with E7 TCR-T cells for metastatic HPV-associated cancers. HPV-associated cancers in include cervical, throat, penile, vulvar, vaginal, anal, and other cancers. Participants will receive a conditioning regimen, E7 TCR-T cells, and aldesleukin. Clinical response to treatment will be determined.
The goal of this research study is to determine whether hormonal therapies used early in the course of prostate cancer could increase the amount of Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) as detected by PET/CT scans for participants with recurrent prostate cancer. This study will measure PSMA levels using standard PET/CT scans and participants will receive standard-of-care androgen receptor antagonist monotherapy. The names of the treatment interventions involved in this study are: - Androgen receptor antagonist monotherapy. - PSMA PET/CT scan It is expected that about 15 people will take part in this research study. Participation in this research study is expected to last about 4 weeks.
The goal of this observational cohort study is to assess the yield of preoperative endoscopic ultrasound focussed on lymph nodes in patients with presumed resectable perihilar (pCCA), intrahepatic (iCCA) or mid-common bile duct (CBD) cholangiocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer is: 1. The number of patients precluded from surgical work-up due to positive regional or extraregional lymph nodes identified by endoscopic ultrasound guided tissue acquisition 2. Characteristics during endoscopic ultrasound of lymph nodes associated with malignancy
This phase III trial compares the effect of modified fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (mFOLFIRINOX) to modified fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX) for the treatment of advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2 negative esophageal, gastroesophageal junction, and gastric adenocarcinoma. The usual approach for patients is treatment with FOLFOX chemotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Fluorouracil stops cells from making DNA and it may kill tumor cells. Leucovorin is used with fluorouracil to enhance the effects of the drug. Oxaliplatin works by killing, stopping, or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Some patients also receive an immunotherapy drug, nivolumab, in addition to FOLFOX chemotherapy. Immunotherapy may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Irinotecan blocks certain enzymes needed for cell division and DNA repair, and it may kill tumor cells. Adding irinotecan to the FOLFOX regimen could shrink the cancer and extend the life of patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancers.
A phase IIb, open-label, randomized study of Nab-Paclitaxel and Gemcitabine and plus/minus VCN-01 in Patients with Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
The study researchers believe that a combination of the drugs trastuzumab and tucatinib, given with standard chemotherapy (capecitabine and oxaliplatin/FOLFOX), may help participants with rectal cancer.
