Filter by:This study is to evaluate PledOx for prevention of chronic chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy induced by oxaliplatin in patients with Stage III or high-risk Stage II colorectal cancer (CRC).
By observation of the inpatients in shenzhen people's hospital,research the curative effect of the two chemotherapy schemes on AML-High dose of cytarabine and HAM.
Febrile neutropenia (FN) continues to be the infectious complication that most commonly requires hospitalization in pediatric cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. In recent years, data have been published on the effectiveness of treatment of FN events with oral antibiotics, mainly in developed countries, but data from developing countries continue to be scarce. Our hypothesis was that early change from initial in-patient intravenous antibiotic treatment to oral outpatient antibiotic treatment in children with cancer and FN is as safe and effective as in-patient intravenous antibiotic management. The purpose of this clinical study was to determine whether early outpatient oral antibiotic treatment is not inferior in safety and efficacy to in-hospital intravenous antibiotic treatment in pediatric patients with cancer and low-risk FN events. A multicenter, non-inferiority randomized clinical trial was conducted in three public hospitals in Mexico City. Low-risk FN events were identified in children aged 1 to 18 years. After 48 to 72 hours of receiving intravenous in-hospital antibiotics, children were randomly allocated to receive outpatient oral treatment (cefixime) or to continue in-hospital intravenous treatment (cefepime). Daily monitoring was performed until the resolution of neutropenia. Our outcome of interest was the presence of any unfavorable clinical outcome.
This is a prospective natural history study of CIPN in approximately 200 participants receiving taxanes (paclitaxel, docetaxel) for breast cancer, bortezomib for multiple myeloma, oxaliplatin-based regimens for colorectal cancer, or vincristine for lymphoma.. Demographic data, medical history, electronic PROs, ClinROs blood biomarkers including NF-L, PGx DNA analyses and Bedside-QST will be assessed at Baseline. The Observation Period will initiate with the first dose of chemotherapy and conclude with the last dose of chemotherapy. During the Observation Period, participants will be evaluated for the development of CIPN using PROs and ClinROs. Blood biomarkers and Bedside-QST will be measured at various timepoints corresponding with treatment regimen schedules throughout the observation period. The Post Chemotherapy Follow-up Period will begin with the first visit after the last dose of chemotherapy and conclude 6 months after the last dose of chemotherapy. During the Post Chemotherapy Follow-up Period, participants will be evaluated for CIPN using PROs and ClinROs. Blood biomarkers and Bedside-QST will also be measured at the beginning and at the end of the Post-Chemotherapy Follow-up Period. PROs will be assessed electronically on a monthly basis.
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a major obstacle to patient care and continues to decrease quality of life. Despite the addition of medications and antiemetic regimens, doctors' ability to control CINV is still inadequate: even moderately-emetogenic chemotherapy regimens cause roughly 20% of patients to have vomiting and over 40% to experience significant nausea. In this study, the investigators test a transcranial vibrating system that has shown great promise at reducing nausea and vomiting. .
Aim of this phase III trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dronabinol (orally administered tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)) as adjuvant therapy to first-line standard chemotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer for improvement of chemotherapy- and tumor-related symptoms applicated by individual titration up to the maximum tolerated dose.
Small cell lung cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy. Currently, there is no effective regimen for patients after the progression offirst-line chemotherapy. The prognosis of patients with extensive disease is very poor, and the improved therapeutic efficacy is urgently needed. Most patients with small cell lung cancer have a long history of smoking, and the tumor mutation burden is relatively high, which provides potential for immunological checkpoint inhibitors represented by PD-1 antibodies. A number of studies have shown that chemotherapy combined with adoptive cellular immunotherapy could prolong the survival of patients. This study is a clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of maintenance therapy with sintilimab after 4-6 cycles of first-line chemotherapy combined with adoptive cellular immunotherapy in patients with advanced small cell lung cancer.
Well-designed observational studies of individuals with rare tumors are needed to improve patient care, clinical investigations, and the education of healthcare professionals. The patterns of care, outcomes, and prognostic factors of a cohort of 2225 patients with metastatic soft tissue sarcomas who were diagnosed between 1990 and 2013 and documented in the prospectively maintained database of the French Sarcoma Group will be analyzed with a focus on : number/frequency of systemic treatments per patient, number/frequency of patients with locoregional treatment of the metastasis, number/frequency of patients with chemotherapy, number/frequency of patients with an off-label drug. Outcome (time-to-next treatment [TNT] and overall survival [OS]) will be reported according to histological subtype, as well as the association between TNT and OS. Prognostic factors of OS will be investigated.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Hetrombopag in subjects with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of solid tumors.
This study will be performed in healthy volunteers in a conventional 3+3 dose-escalation design. Four cohorts (dose level A, B, C, and D) of up to 6 evaluable volunteers per cohort are planned to be sequentially accrued to receive Careseng 1370 1, 2, 3 and 4 sachets per day, 4,000 mg/sachet before meal (starting from 1 sachet). At least 5 days of staggering and with the investigator's judgement of no safety concern will be required to administer the next volunteer for the first three volunteers of each cohort. The staggering time is counted from Day 1 of one volunteer to Day 1 of the next volunteer. Careseng 1370 should be taken around 1 hour before meal. No volunteer is allowed to be assigned to more than 1 dose level. All dose escalation/de-escalation decisions will be made by the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB).
