Filter by:About 70% of colon cancer patients are anemic. Preoperative anemia in patients with colorectal cancer is associated with both impaired disease-free survival and overall survival. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of preoperative iv iron substitution on postoperative recovery in preoperatively anemic (male Hb <130, female Hb <120) and iron deficient colon cancer patients in a prospective setup. As a primary outcome, the effect of iv-iron substitution on postoperative complications is investigated.
Less than half of all positive fecal immunochemical testing (FIT)s are followed-up by colonoscopy, thus limiting the full potential of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening to reduce mortality. Given the need for coordination in order to achieve high rates of follow-up, multilevel approaches are needed. Such approaches could be particularly beneficial in communities and populations that experience cancer disparities and have fewer specialty providers, but most data focuses on large systems or urban areas. The academic-community health system collaboration is uniquely poised to address this research and service gap. The persistent poverty and health disparities in rural Southern Illinois set the stage for truly impactful research. The investigators' approach will serve as a model for multilevel interventions in rural settings, inform future work addressing other health disparities, and fill a gap in rigorous trials of CRC screening follow-up in rural areas.
The main objective is to explore the current practice of right hemicolectomy for colon cancer located in the ascending colon and hepatic flexure in selected Chinese high quality and high volume centres. This study will identify a potential area to improve the level of standard care and serve as a reference cohort to which planned standardization and addition of innovative aspects can be compared to
To determine the Efficacy and Safety of camrelizumab and apatinib combined with chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6) for MSS/pMMR locally advanced colon cancer.
This phase Ib/II trial investigates the side effects and best dose of LY3214996 when given together with cetuximab alone or in combination with abemaciclib and to see how well they work in treating patients with colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and/or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Cetuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. LY3214996 and abemaciclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving LY3214996 and cetuximab alone or in combination with abemaciclib may help treat patients with colorectal cancer.
This is a pilot feasibility study on high risk patients due to frailty and comorbidity who have early stage colon cancer (UICC 1). We will use a novel resection technique with expected less risk of complications called the Combined Endoscopic and Laparoscopic Surgery (CELS). After the histopathologic evaluation. Patients will be placed in either low risk or high risk group. Depending on this, they will be followed for 3 years or referred to standard resection
The purpose of this retrospective observational study is to evaluate the performance of the Shared Decision Making Process scale in a sample of patients who have received a decision aid about the decision to screen or not screen for breast cancer, colon cancer, prostate cancer, or lung cancer.
This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of SX-682 that can be given alone and in combination with nivolumab in treating patients with RAS-Mutated, microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). SX-682 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving SX-682 alone and together with nivolumab may kill more tumor cells.
EndoVigilant software device augments existing colonoscopy procedure video in real-time by highlighting colon polyps and mucosal abnormalities. It is intended to assist gastroenterologists in detection of adenomas and serrated polyps. The device is an adjunctive tool and is not intended to replace physicians' decision making related to detection, diagnosis or treatment. This study with an adaptive design measures the clinical benefit (increase in detection of adenomatous and serrated polyps) and increased risk (increased extraction of non-adenomas) during standard colonoscopy procedures when EndoVigilant software device is used.
The goal of the study is to examine whether a shared decision making intervention improves decision making about colon cancer screening for patients who had their colonoscopy delayed or postponed due to the COVID pandemic. Eligible patients (n=800) will be randomly assigned to either the intervention or control arm. A subset will be surveyed about 6-8 weeks post intervention to measure shared decision making, their intention to follow through with screening, and their decisional conflict. Study staff will conduct medical chart review to track receipt of colon cancer screening within 6 months. The statistician will test whether patients in the intervention arm report more shared decision making, less decisional conflict, higher intention to follow through on screening and have higher screening rates compared to those in the control arm.
