NCT ID: NCT06321692 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Neuroendocrine Tumors

Early Identification of Cardiac Involvement in Patients With Carcinoid: Clinical and Prognostic Implications

Start date: October 9, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is for patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NET) with or without carcinoid syndrome followed by NET Unit of European Institute of Oncology. The objective of the trial is to evaluate biochemical markers of myocardial injury (high-sensitive troponins), haemodyinamic markers (pro-brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), N-terminal (NT)-BNP (NT-proBNP)), and markers of fibrosis (Suppression of Tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) in patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NET) with or without carcinoid syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT05969860 Recruiting - Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trials

At-Home Cancer Directed Therapy Versus in Clinic for the Treatment of Patients With Advanced Cancer

Start date: August 23, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial studies the effect of cancer directed therapy given at-home versus in the clinic for patients with cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Currently most drug-related cancer care is conducted in infusion centers or specialty hospitals, where patients spend many hours a day isolated from family, friends, and familiar surroundings. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. The logistics and costs of navigating cancer treatments have become a principal contributor to patients' reduced quality of life. It is therefore important to reduce the burden of cancer in the lives of patients and their caregivers, and a vital aspect of this involves moving beyond traditional hospital and clinic-based care and evaluate innovative care delivery models with virtual capabilities. Providing cancer treatment at-home, versus in the clinic, may help reduce psychological and financial distress and increase treatment compliance, especially for marginalized patients and communities.

NCT ID: NCT05734430 Recruiting - Appendix Cancer Clinical Trials

Genetics of Appendix Cancer Study

GAP
Start date: November 11, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The GAP Study is a prospective cohort study designed to comprehensively investigate genetic variations that may contribute to cancer development among individuals diagnosed with appendix/appendiceal cancer who are ages 18+ years.

NCT ID: NCT05670574 Recruiting - Quality of Life Clinical Trials

Surgery With Extended (D3) Mesenterectomy for Small Bowel Tumors

Start date: November 4, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of central D3 lymphadenectomy in cases of small bowel tumors. Such dissection is under debate; consensus guidelines are vague when it comes to surgical techniques and practice is highly variable.

NCT ID: NCT05636618 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Neuroendocrine Tumors

Targeted Alpha-Particle Therapy for Advanced SSTR2 Positive Neuroendocrine Tumors

212-Pb-VMT
Start date: September 27, 2023
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study is Phase I/IIa First-in-Human Study of [212Pb]VMT-α-NET Targeted Alpha-Particle Therapy for Advanced SSTR2 Positive Neuroendocrine Tumors

NCT ID: NCT05176665 Recruiting - Neoplasms Clinical Trials

EMB-01 in Patients With Advanced/Metastatic Gastrointestinal Cancers

Start date: October 21, 2021
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study is to evaluate the safety and antitumor activity of EMB-01 in advanced/metastatic gastrointestinal cancers, including gastric cancer, hepatocellular cancer, cholangiocarcinoma and colorectal cancer.

NCT ID: NCT04993261 Recruiting - Carcinoid Tumor Clinical Trials

An Investigational Scan (Dual Energy CT) in Detecting Gastrointestinal Carcinoid Tumors

Start date: September 23, 2015
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This trial studies the use of a special type of computed (CT) scan called dual energy CT in detecting gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors. CT is an imaging technique that uses x-rays and a computer to create images of areas inside the body. Dual energy computed tomography is a technique used during routine CT scans to help obtain and process the image after the scan is complete. Doctors want to learn if dual energy computed tomography can help improve the detection of carcinoid tumors during routine CT scans.

NCT ID: NCT04907643 Recruiting - Rectal Cancer Clinical Trials

Virtual Reality for GI Cancer Pain to Improve Patient Reported Outcomes

Start date: October 5, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with digestive tract malignancy often experience severe and unremitting abdominal pain that negatively affects physical, emotional, and social function, as well as health related quality of life (HRQOL). Therapeutic virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a promising and evidence-based treatment modality for cancer pain. Users of VR wear a pair of goggles with a close-proximity screen in front of the eyes that creates a sensation of being transported into lifelike, three-dimensional worlds. To date, VR has been limited to short-term clinical trials for cancer pain. Moreover, limited research exists on theory-based VR modalities beyond mere distraction, such as VR that employs acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) with components of biofeedback and mindfulness. To bridge these gaps, this study seeks to: (1) assess the impact of immersive VR on patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including pain, activity metrics, and opioid use among patients with visceral pain from a digestive tract malignancy; (2) assess differences in PROs, activity metrics, and opioid use between skills-based VR therapy vs. distraction VR therapy; and (3) determine patient-level predictors of VR treatment response in visceral cancer pain. To address these aims, the study will measure PROs and opioid use in 360 patients randomized among 3 groups and follow them for 60 days after enrollment: (1) an enhanced VR group receiving skills-based VR; (2) a distraction-based VR group receiving patient-selected VR videos; and (3) a VR sham control group using a VR headset with 2-D content. The results will inform best practices for the implementation of VR for visceral cancer pain management and guide selection of patient-tailored experiences.

NCT ID: NCT04735198 Recruiting - Biliary Stones Clinical Trials

Prophylactic Cholecystectomy in Midgut NETs Patients Who Require Primary Tumor Surgery.

TNE-IDC-COLE
Start date: January 20, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators want to study the effectiveness of prophylactic cholecystectomy in patients with midgut neuroendocrine tumor (jejunum, ileum or proximal colon) who require primary tumor surgery. When patients are diagnosed and are tributary to surgical treatment, the tumor might compromise vascularization, and patients need an extensive bowel resection. The patients might also receive medical treatment with somatostatin analogs. The combination of extensive bowel resection and medical treatment might increase gallbladder stones, but patients might not develop biliary stone disease, as in the general population, where 20% of the population have gallbladder stones but only a 10 to 15 % of the population will develop symptoms. The idea comes from the lack of literature about the incidence of biliary Stone disease in patients with midgut NET tumors. It's a multicentric, open-label and randomized clinical trial to evaluate the incidence of biliary stone disease in patients with midgut NET who require primary tumor surgery combined or not to cholecystectomy. Our hypothesis suggests that patients with midgut neuroendocrine tumor who require primary tumor resection without the combination of prophylactic cholecystectomy do not have an increased incidence of biliary stone disease two years after the surgery, regardless of treatment with SSA.

NCT ID: NCT04028479 Recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

The Registry of Oncology Outcomes Associated With Testing and Treatment

ROOT
Start date: May 5, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

This study is to collect and validate regulatory-grade real-world data (RWD) in oncology using the novel, Master Observational Trial construct. This data can be then used in real-world evidence (RWE) generation. It will also create reusable infrastructure to allow creation or affiliation with many additional RWD/RWE efforts both prospective and retrospective in nature.
