Filter by:Bowel cancer is the second most common tumour with 41 000 new cases diagnosed annually in the UK, 447 000 across Europe and 1.36 million worldwide; of which one third are located in the rectum. Standard primary radical Total Mesorectal Excision (TME) surgery is an oncologically effective treatment for early stage rectal cancer. However, resection of a low rectal tumour requires a permanent stoma in approximately 10% of cases while many more patients have a temporary stoma, some of which are not reversed. Radical surgery, which evolved to treat locally advanced, symptomatic tumours, may not be the optimal method of treatment for early screen-detected tumours and an organ preserving strategy may generate significantly less morbidity without substantially compromising oncological outcomes. STAR-TREC is a rolling phase II/III study. Phase II aimed to assess the feasibility of a large, multi-centre randomised trial comparing radical surgery versus two contrasting organ saving treatments followed by selective transanal microsurgery. Phase III will evaluate two contrasting organ preservation strategies in terms of organ preservation rates, toxicity (clinician and patient-reported) and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL).
For tough colic resection, evaluation of our practice for these lesions unresectable in monoblock and evaluation of the contribution of the hybrid technique EMR (mucosectomy dissection) /ESD (submucosal dissection)
A Prospective Study on the Efficacy and Safety of CD8+NKG2D+ AKT cell immunotherapy to the pancreatic cancer patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy.
Gemcitabine plus nub-paclitaxel (GA) regimen was recently presented at an international oncology meeting and represents a new standard regimen in the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer. Therefore, it was decided to consider the balance of safety and efficacy on survival time as a preoperative chemotherapy, the investigators use the NAC-GA regimen includes only two cycles (three times weekly and one week rest) of GA regimen.
Phase II Study of Neo-adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy using infusional Gemcitabine followed by Surgery for Locally Advanced (T3 and T4 or Node positive) Rectal Adenocarcinoma.
Every year in France, 30.000 deaths are due to lung cancer and 39.500 new cases of this disease are diagnosed (INCa 2014). Patients suffering from locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), stage IIIa, usually undergo a multimodality treatment including chemotherapy with platinum compounds before surgery (called neoadjuvant chemotherapy or induction chemotherapy). The reason of this combined modality treatment is the really poor prognosis of patients presenting a disease already spread to lymph nodes (classified N2 when the lymph node under the carina is affected). Up till now, the five-year survival of patients who underwent surgical resection of N2 NSCLC does not exceed 15%
The purpose is to evaluate if sodium fluoride PET in patients having already undergone a choline PET negative for bone extension (non-metastatic status) modifies the status of patients concerning the existence or not of bone metastases. Secondary purposes are: - To evaluate if detection of bone metastasis by sodium fluoride PET, not detected by choline PET, leads to change of treatment - To evaluate inter-technique concordance (choline vs sodium fluoride PET) of results (metastatic status and number of lesions) - To evaluate the inter-judge concordance of interpretation of sodium fluoride PET - To study the discordance of metastatic status of 2 techniques.
Researchers are looking for better ways of understanding and treating pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to see how useful it is to look for changes and characteristics in your genes (molecules that contain instructions for the development and functioning of the cells) and the genes within the tumour. These characteristics may be useful in choosing treatments for patients in the future. Changes (mutations) in genes have been shown to be an important characteristic in cancers. Looking at differences in genes in patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas and comparing this information with response to their initial chemotherapy treatment may help to learn which treatments may be better for certain patients after initial treatment.
In patients with peritoneal metastases of colorectal cancer could be a radical removal of all tumor foci a significantly improved survival compared to a sole systemic chemotherapy are additionally achieved by a hyperthermic intraoperative chemotherapy (HIPEC).
BACAP is a biobank dedicated to the pancreatic adenocarcinoma funded by institut national institue du cancer (INCa) and coordinated by Dr Barbara Bournet from Toulouse hospital. This base includes clinical data and biological samples such as blood, serum, plasma, saliva, DNA and RNA from tumors cells. The mission of this prospective project is to make available to the scientific community a clinical biological base from patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma
