Filter by:The investigational drug to be studied in this protocol, BCA101, is a first-in-class compound that targets both EGFR with TGFβ. Based on preclinical data, this bifunctional antibody may exert synergistic activity in patients with EGFR-driven tumors.
This project aims to implement a multi-level group randomized trial, delayed intervention that includes components targeting clinics, providers, patients, and the community to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, follow-up, and referral-to-care among patients age 50-74 in 12 counties in Appalachian Kentucky and Ohio. The 12 counties will be assigned to one of two study groups (early vs. delayed) and outcome measures (rate of CRC screening) will be obtained from clinic-level electronic health record data and a county-level behavioral assessment telephone survey. The hypothesis for the project is that the multi-level intervention will increase the clinic and county level CRC screening rates.
The purpose of this study is to analyse the survival of frail patients with localized colorectal cancer who undergo surgical treatment in comparison with those with palliative treatment
BOLD-100 is an intravenously administered sterile solution containing the ruthenium-based small molecule. BOLD-100 has been shown to preferentially decrease the expression of GRP78 in tumour cells and ER stressed cells when compared to normal cells. BOLD-100 will be combined with cytotoxic FOLFOX chemotherapy in this study, with a dose escalation cohort to ensure tolerability and safety, followed by a cohort expansion phase.
The primary objective of the study aims to compare soluble CD154 (CD40L) levels before and after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases. The secondary objectives aims: - to compare soluble CD154 (sCD40-L) levels before and after treatment by RFA or surgery alone in patients with CRC liver metastases; - to study the feasibility and reliability of soluble CD154 (sCD40-L) levels to detect and quantify the induction of immun response in CRC liver metastases patients after RFA; - to study the impact of surgery on plasma soluble CD154 levels; - to study association between CD154 expression level before and after RFA in CRC liver metastases patients and relapses rate at 1 year.
To investigate the clinical effect of radiofrequency ablation on colorectal cancer liver metastases with different KRAS gene status
The purpose of this study is to help the Dartmouth Cancer Center and the National Cancer Institute understand how to educate people about cancer screening.
Endogenous breath VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) are present in various excreted biological materials (urine, blood, faeces an breath) and their analysis offers a possibility for cancer screening. Some of these VOCs are reversed in the venous blood stream and reach the lung alveoli where some of them are exhaled. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the commonest tumours and is an important cause of cancer-related mortality. Colonoscopy is the gold standard for the diagnosis of CRC. Screening with fecal immunochemical test (FIT) is associated with a 13-18% CRC-mortality reduction. Aim of the study To compare the reliability of this breath analysis with Immunochemically-based Fecal Occult Blood Test.
This study will test the effectiveness of mailing fecal immunochemical tests (FITs) in increasing colorectal cancer (CRC) screening rates in U.S. adults ages 45-75. We are implementing this study in two age groups, 45-49 years and 50-75 years.
To confirm the safety and performance of the da Vinci SP Surgical System, Instruments and Accessories in a complex colorectal procedure such as low anterior resections or right colectomy.
