Filter by:Post-operative concomitant radiochemotherapy is a treatment that is difficult to achieve for several reasons. First of all, and by definition, these patients have had recent surgery, most often accompanied by several weeks of hospitalization and weight loss. In addition, the functional recovery of feeding capacity is not always complete at the time of the start of irradiation. In addition, concomitant radiochemotherapy is responsible for very frequent radiomucitus which alters the feeding capacity of patients during treatment. In total, the rate of complete radiochemotherapy (3 cures of cisplatin administered) varies from 50 to 70% depending on the studies, which were carried out in selected populations within the framework of an experimental clinical trial and without distinguishing between positive and negative Human Papilloma tumours . In our experience, in a population with a very high preponderance of non-Human Papilloma-related tumours and not selected by participation in an experimental trial, complete radiochemotherapy is only possible in about 40% to 50% of cases.However, the amount of cisplatin actually administered is correlated with overall survival. Therefore, it is logical to assume that increasing the number of patients receiving full treatment may result in increased survival. While the need for nutritional care during radiotherapy is clearly established, its modality remains debated. Recently, a randomised study of 159 patients treated by radiotherapy (or radiochemotherapy) showed that the simple systematic prescription of oral food supplements (500 kcal/d) in addition to the usual dietary advice was associated with a lesser reduction in weight at the end of radiotherapy (main objective) but also with an improvement in the tolerance of the treatments. Overall, nutritional management during treatment varies greatly, ranging from simple dietary monitoring to prophylactic gastrostomy and the insertion of a nasogastric tube on demand during treatment. This heterogeneity of management found in the literature is also observed at the regional level. This project will also make it possible to propose a harmonized support strategy at the inter-regional level.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with the anti-angiogenic targeted drugs and ginsenoside Rg3 versus TACE alone in patients with unresectable Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B/C hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), who has normal liver function and no extrahepatic metastasis.
This is a pilot study with a single arm in a single center assessing safety and efficacy of combination therapy of TACE and ablation and durvalumab. This study will be conducted in selected patients with intermediate stage HCC not amenable to curative therapy.
Patients with unresectable or metastatic gastric or esophageal cancer, with first-line treatment applied are to be recruited in the study. In the current study, the efficacy and safety of anlotinib hydrochloride combined with nivolumab as second-line or salvage chemotherapy will be evaluated in Chinese patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. 48 patients could provide adequate precision rather than controlling type I&II error.
This is a pilot study to determine the usefulness of new brachytherapy device that utilizes active components (palladium-103) of standard devices in a novel configuration, which may benefit basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma patients by providing conformal radiation therapy to the surface of the skin.
This study used (cTACE or DEB-TACE + FOLFOX scheme HAIC) combined with PD-1 antibody camrelizumab and apatinib mesylas in the treatment of patients with advanced liver cancer, to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the combined treatment for clinical liver cancer treatment.It will provide new evidence-based medical evidence.This study is a prospective, open, single center, exploratory clinical study and the sample size is 56.Main research purpose:To evaluate the effectiveness of cTACE or DEB-TACE + FOLFOX regimen HAIC combined with camrelizumab and apatinib mesylas in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.Secondary research purpose:To evaluate the safety of cTACE or DEB-TACE + FOLFOX regimen HAIC combined with camrelizumab and apatinib mesylas in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a novel drug-delivery system developed to deliver, effectively and safely, small doses of cytotoxic agents into peritoneal tumor deposits. It is currently used for palliation and for down-staging of patients who are non-eligible for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PIPAC used in neoadjuvant setting to enhance the response of patients with colorectal peritoneal metastasis when combined with neoadjuvant systemic therapy for patients eligible to CRS/HIPEC prior to planned surgery.
This study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the induction chemotherapy + concurrent chemoradiotherapy（CCRT）combined with toripalimab and endostar treatment, in comparison with the induction chemotherapy + concurrent chemoradiotherapy（CCRT）, in treating locally advanced high-risk nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy treatment represents the standard approach for resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The incidence of pulmonary infection and other perioperative complications were higher in patients who received esophagectomy and neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy than those without neoadjuvant treatment and surgery patients. However, reliable clinical data can quantify the damage degree of immunologic function caused by chemotherapy and radiotherapy is still unknown. This project regards the level of lymphocyte and immunocyte in peripheral blood as a quantitative index to reflect the dynamic change of the immunologic function of patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy treatment. Meanwhile, the investigators will also investigate the relationship between the level of lymphocyte and immunocyte in peripheral blood and the response rate of neoadjuvant therapy.
Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) may benefit from immunocheckpoint inhibitor therapy. Although target antibody drugs for PD-1 and PD-L1 have achieved good results in immunotherapy of many malignant tumors, there is still a lack of corresponding clinical research reports on whether LELC treatment can benefit. Therefore, this study intends to adopt the basket research model , to explore the application of anti-procedural death receptor 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody in patients with advanced LELC after the failure of first-line standard treatment . Further explore the relationship between tumor and body immunity, tumor microenvironment and curative effect, and find stable biomarkers, so as to screen out the superior population of tumor immunotherapy.
