Filter by:In this Phase II study a dose of 2.8 mg (eight 0.35 mg siG12D-LODERs) will be administered in 12-week cycles to patients with unresectable or borderline resectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer combined with chemotherapy treatment. Primary Outcome: - ORR at 6 months.
This study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of first-line icotinib treatment and first-line chemotherapy followed by maintenance treatment with icotinib.
Acetic acid chromoendoscopy is an established standard technique used to detect dysplasia within the gastrointestinal tract. Acetic acid spray helps to identify neoplasia by highlighting the surface pattern, highlighting the vascular pattern and by a process known as the aceto-whitening reaction, where tissues take acetic acid and turn white for a brief period and then slowly revert back to a normal colour. The neoplastic surface and vascular pattern are all very well described, and have played a big role in the recognition of early cancer. The aceto-whitening reaction is well described but the differential in timing between neoplastic and non-neoplastic areas is not well understood. The investigators aim to establish the differential in the timing of the disappearance of the aceto-whitening reaction between healthy tissue, dysplastic tissue, intramucosal cancer and invasive cancer after acetic acid dye spray in the oesophagus and colon. By understanding this better, the investigators may be able to predict with greater accuracy whether a highlighted abnormal area is cancer or high grade dysplasia, or whether it is low grade dysplasia or inflammation, which has significant prognostic implications for the patient. The investigators hypothesize that the differential in the timing of the disappearance of the aceto-whitening reaction between normal and abnormal tissue could help in the detection of gastrointestinal neoplasia.
This is a randomized, multicenter, controlled trial to prove efficacy of S‐1 and Oxaliplatin as Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Advanced Gastric Cancer Patients who undergo D2 gastrectomy. The primary endpoint is three-year free disease and the second primary includes five-year overall survival, safety and R0 resection rate.
It is estimated to 7300 the number of new cases of gastric cancer each year in France. According to a randomized trial comparing 3 cycles of ECF (epirubicin, cisplatin, 5FU) administered before surgery and 3 cycles after surgery with surgery alone in adenocarcinoma of the stomach and lower esophagus, clinical and experimental data are the neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a new standard treatment for operable gastric cancer. This treatment with a median survival of more than 3 years to obtain a hazard ratio of 0.75 in favor of chemotherapy arm (p = 0.009). The 5-year survival being 36% for patients treated with chemotherapy versus 23% for surgery alone. Progression-free survival was also significantly prolonged with a hazard ratio of 0.66. The proposed clinical study by Ajani et al shows that the combination of Docetaxel with the schema Cisplatin - 5FU provides greater clinical benefit and induces to consider the triple combination as a reference treatment in metastatic gastric cancer in patients under 65 years. Preoperative radiochemotherapy is expected to increase the rate of curative resections, reduce gastrointestinal and hematologic toxicity. Two studies evaluating the feasibility of preoperative RTCT in operable gastric adenocarcinoma with continuous 5GU (+ or - paclitaxel) and 45 Gy are available and the combination 5FU oxaliplatin has been assessed in the esophagus and rectum tumors. The NESC study, Phase II, proposes the following schema: 2 cycles of chemotherapy with Docetaxel - Cisplatin - 5FU then preoperative chemoradiation with oxaliplatin - continuous 5FU and radiotherapy in locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma stage III and IV non-metastatic administered before surgery.
To evaluate the change of blood perfusion before/after the use of Endostar, discuss the time sequence of Endostar TM in treating advanced lung adenocarcinoma in normalization window period.
This is an open-label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a modified regimen of oxaliplatin and S-1 on unresectable gastric adenocarcinoma in the first-line therapy.
This is an open-label, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a modified regimen of oxaliplatin and capecitabine on metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma in the first-line therapy.
The high cancer related mortality has remained a significant issue of health care in Poland, Europe and worldwide. The decreasing incidence rate for carcinoma of the distal stomach and a marked trend of increasing incidence for adenocarcinoma of the esophago-gastric junction and esophagus has been observed in the developed countries. The most eminent drawback of majority commonly cited randomized trials is heterogenicity of cancer patient population. The epidemiological, pathological, and clinical data clearly suggest that adenocarcinoma of the esophago-gastric junction is the entirety different both from adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and adenocarcinoma of the stomach. The experience in a combined modality therapy for adenocarcinoma of the esophago-gastric junction have been extrapolated from studies on esophageal or gastric cancer, where the investigated population involved in part patients with carcinoma of the esophago-gastric junction. The proposed study has been designed to achieve the following objectives: - The assessment of safety and efficacy of a combined modality therapy in homogenous patient population with adenocarcinoma of the esophago-gastric junction excluding individuals with adenocarcinoma of the esophagus or the stomach; - The assessment of safety of a combined modality therapy in a form of chemo- and chemoradiotherapy related toxicity and impact of chemo- and chemoradiotherapy on postoperative morbidity or mortality rates; - The assessment of efficacy of a combined modality therapy in a form of rate of response of the tumor to chemo- and chemoradiotherapy and a curative resection rate. - The assessment of efficacy of a combined modality therapy in a form of cancer free survival and overall survival.
Intercalated administration of Iressa® (gefitinib) on days 5-18 of chemotherapy cycle improve the efficacy of Pemetrexed/platinum regimen given as first-line treatment for never-smokers with advanced (stage IIIB/IV) lung adenocarcinoma.
