Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to describe the prevalence of germ line-pathogenic variants in Mexican patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the prevalence of pathogenic variants in genes associated with lung adenocarcinoma in Mexican patients younger than fifty? 2. Which clinical-pathological characteristics are associated with germ-line pathogenic variants in patients with lung adenocarcinoma? 3. How actionable somatic mutations are associated with germ line-pathogenic variants of patients with lung adenocarcinoma? Participants will be asked to sign an informed consent; after that, they will be instructed to donate 10 ml of peripheral blood by venipuncture in the morning and before the patient has taken morning medication and the first meal, following a period of 8-12 hr fasting.
Gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma, which is one of the major leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, is a global challenge to human health. However, standard chemotherapy has limited efficacy in advanced gastric cancer, and there is an urgent need to explore and develop new therapeutic targets and combination therapy modalities. The main purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy of M108 monoclonal antibody plus capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOX) versus placebo plus CAPOX as first-line treatment measured by progression free survival (PFS). This study will also evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and the immunogenicity profile of M108 monoclonal antibody, as well as its effects on quality of life.
Background: Cancers of the nasal cavity or skull base are rare. They often are not diagnosed until they are at an advanced stage, and they often spread to other parts of the body. These cancers may have mutations in a gene called IDH2. Researchers want to find out if a drug (enasidenib) that targets the IDH2 mutation can help people with these cancers. Objective: To test enasidenib in people with cancers of the nasal cavity or skull base. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with rare cancers of the nasal cavity or the base of the skull. Their cancer must have an IDH2 gene mutation, and it must have recurred locally or spread to other parts of the body. These cancers can include sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma; olfactory neuroblastoma; sinonasal large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma; poorly differentiated sinonasal adenocarcinoma; or chondrosarcoma. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests and tests of their heart function. They will have imaging scans of their brain, skull base, neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. A sample of tumor tissue will be collected. Enasidenib is a tablet taken by mouth with a glass of water. Participants will take the drug once a day, every day, in 28-day cycles. They will not have resting periods between cycles. Participants will visit the clinic on the first day of each cycle to receive the tablets they will need to take at home until the beginning of the next cycle. They will keep a diary to record the time of each dose they take. Participants may remain in the study as long as the drug is helping them....
The purpose of this study is to find out how effective and safe glipizide is for lowering blood sugar in people with pancreatic cancer.
This project intends to study the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy in the perioperative treatment of AEG.
This is an open-label, single-arm, single-center clinical study to investigate the safety and efficacy of fuquinitinib combined with PD-1 inhibitors and first-line chemotherapy in the treatment of inoperable HER2-negative advanced GC/GEJC. Eligible enrolled patients received 6 cycles of combined treatment with fuquinitinib combined with PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy (XELOX/SOX) regimen. Maintenance treatment was fuquinitinib combined with PD-1 inhibitor and Teghio/capecitabine until disease progression or toxicity became intolerable. The longest duration of PD-1 inhibitor treatment is 24 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of perioperative Disitamab Vedotin plus Toripalimab and XELOX versus Disitamab Vedotin plus Toripalimab versus XELOX in subjects with HER2-expressing resectable locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
This study aims to facilitate discovery and validation of tests for early detection in subjects at high risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and to facilitate the use of state-of-the-art machine learning-based algorithms that utilize databases and images with the purpose of identifying early stages of pancreatic cancer, as well as people at high-risk.The study also aims to provide a platform for development of an interventional protocol for early detection of PDAC.
Compared to upper gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies, CRC patients generally present with satisfactory nutritional status at surgery and malnutrition is typically present in advanced stages of CRC. Therefore, in the latter surgery may not be offered with curative intent. Based on the current evidence, the role of OIN appears to be consolidated for malnourished patients undergoing surgery for gastrointestinal cancer. Regarding not malnourished patients, there is still no clear correlation between OIN and decrease in post-operative complications. Furthermore, whether OIN increases immune response within the tumour microenvironment is based on studies with poor number of patients.
This clinical trial tests how well surgical resection after chemotherapy given before surgery to make the tumor smaller (neoadjuvant) works to treat pancreatic cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) and that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). In general, surgery is considered the most effective treatment for pancreatic cancer, especially when the cancer is localized and has not spread to other organs. However, most patients with pancreatic cancer are not candidates for surgical removal because the cancer has grown into or close to nearby arteries, veins, or organs and there is a concern of damaging these nearby structures. Researchers want to find out if surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy can be done safely to completely remove the tumor in patients with locally advanced and unresectable pancreatic cancer.
