Filter by:This clinical trial tests a multilevel intervention at the clinic, provider and patient levels, to improve colonoscopy surveillance in patients with high risk colon polyps. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common and deadly disease that is largely preventable through the detection and removal of colorectal polyps. One million Americans are diagnosed with high risk polyps of the colon or rectum annually and are at increased risk for CRC; however, uptake of recommended repeat colonoscopy in 3 years to reduce CRC risk is low in this group. This multilevel intervention may work to improve timely colonoscopy screening for patients with high risk colon polyps.
This study aims to evaluate the safety, and early signals of anti-tumor activity of PF-07820435 when administered alone (Part 1A) or in combination with sasanlimab (Part 1B; Part 2) in patients with selected advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Part 1 will be dose-finding and Part 2 of the study will further evaluate PF-07820435 at the recommended dose for combination expansion in patients with selected advanced solid tumors.
This clinical trial tests how well an online mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) works to decrease anxiety in patients before a first-time screening colonoscopy. Elevated pre-procedural anxiety can affect patient outcomes including bowel preparation adherence and quality, the amount of sedation required, procedure time, patient satisfaction, cancellation or no-shows, and intention for future cancer screening. Mindfulness is a form of meditation that focuses on staying within the present moment to reduce anxiety. Previous research supports mindfulness practice among cancer survivors to decrease anxiety, fear of cancer re-occurrence, and to improve quality of life. Online MBIs have the potential to include targeted meditations and educational information designed to promote behavior change. This study may help researchers learn whether a mindfulness intervention works to decrease anxiety in patients before a first-time screening colonoscopy.
Phase I Study of NT-112, an autologous T-cell therapy product genetically engineered to express an HLA-C*08:02-restricted T cell receptor (TCR), targeting KRAS G12D mutant solid tumors.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of M5A-IL2 immunocytokine (M5A-ICK) combined with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and to see how well they work in treating patients with colorectal cancer or xarcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) positive breast cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) is a protein that is present in most colorectal cancers and in many other cancers, such as breast cancer, as well. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. Cytokines are signaling proteins that help control inflammation in the body. They allow the immune system to mount a defense if germs or cancer or other substances that can make people sick enter the body. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a powerful cytokine able to regulate the immune responses that are important for anticancer immunity. Immunocytokines (also called antibody-cytokine fusion proteins) are small proteins that regulate the activity of immune cells. The M5A-IL2 immunocytokine (M5A-ICK) combines the cancer targeting features of the M5A antibody with the immune system regulation properties of the cytokine IL-2. Giving M5A-ICK in combination with standard of care (SOC) SBRT may work better in treating patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer or CEA positive metastatic breast cancer.
This is a single-arm, single-center, prospective phase I/II study that received standard first-line chemotherapy (FOLFOX,FOLFIRI,XELOX, FOLFOXIRI± targeted therapy). If the first-line chemotherapy regimen is a 2-week regimen, patients need to undergo ≥8 cycles of standard chemotherapy. If the first-line chemotherapy regimen is a 3-week regimen, maintenance therapy is required for patients with unresectable advanced metastatic colorectal cancer who have reached CR,PR,SD (RECIST 1.1) after standard chemotherapy after ≥4 cycles. The eligible patients were screened for maintenance treatment. Maintenance therapy research is divided into the following two phases: Phase IIB fuquinitinib combined capecitabine dose exploration trial (n=6-9) : Phase II: Dose extension trial (n=47) : 47 patients were continued to be enrolled in the dose extension phase trial according to the recommended dose of fuquinitinib combined with capecitabine established in phase iB, and were treated until toxicity became intolerable or disease progression.
This clinical trial implements research strategies to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening rates among low income and ethnic minority groups. CRC is the second most common cause of cancer mortality in the United States and disproportionately burdens low income and ethnic minority groups. Fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) is a test to check for blood in the stool. A brush is used to collect water drops from around the surface of a stool while it is still in the toilet bowl. The samples are then sent to a laboratory, where they are checked for a human blood protein. Blood in the stool may be a sign of colorectal cancer. Despite its potential for reducing CRC incidence and mortality, screening remains woefully underutilized. There is an unmet need for practical and effective programs to improve CRC screening rates. By implementing a culturally-tailored screening CRC program that supports providers and clinic staff to encourage eligible patients to complete FIT, researchers hope to reduce cancer disparities among low-income and ethnic groups and increase the CRC screening rate, which will help providers find CRC sooner, when it may be easier to treat.
This study aims to better understand the cause of colorectal cancer and how to find the best treatment for Hispanic patients with colorectal cancer. The genetic information in the blood and tissues may explain why patients who have the same type of cancer and receive the same treatment do not always have the same results. By combining genetic (certain qualities or traits passed from parents to offspring) information with clinical data, such as the responses of different kinds of cancers to different treatments, this study could lead to more knowledge about why certain cancers occur and why they respond differently to treatments. Information gathered from this study may help researchers match treatments to the genetics of each patient and the genetic changes in their tumor. This approach is known as personalized medicine.
In this study, colorectal cancer patients with initially resectable liver-only metastases, as prospectively confirmed by a local multidisciplinary team (MDT) according to predefined criteria, will be tested for RAS and BRAF tumor mutation status. Patients with gene mutant or right-sidedness will be randomised between anatomical resection (AR) or nonanatomical resection (NAR). The primary end-point is the relapse-free survival.
