Filter by:This is an open label, multicenter, non-comparative, phase IV study of panitumumab monotherapy in Indian subjects with previously treated, wild-type Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) and wild-type Neuroblastoma rat sarcoma viral (v-ras) oncogene homolog (NRAS), metastatic colorectal cancer. This study is designed to fulfil the requirement of the Indian regulatory authority to characterize the safety and tolerability of panitumumab when administered to Indian subjects with wild-type KRAS and wild-type NRAS metastatic colorectal cancer. Approximately 58 Indian subjects with previously treated wild-type KRAS and wild-type NRAS, metastatic colorectal cancer will be enrolled in order to achieve the target enrollment of 50 evaluable subjects who have received at least one dose of panitumumab. Subjects will receive panitumumab 6 milligram/kilogram (mg/kg) intravenously every 14 days until disease progression, intolerability, withdrawal of consent, or death. All subjects will be followed at 4 weeks and 8 weeks after the last administration of panitumumab, unless the treatment was discontinued due to withdrawal of consent or death of the subject.
We hypothesize through this randomized, prospective, single center adjuvant study, that cytokine-induced killer cell in patients with stage III colon cancer can improve survival in this patient population over control. Stage III colon cancer patients can benefit most from adjuvant chemotherapy, but the 5 year survival rate is still around 60%. We wish CIK cell therapy can improve the survival rate of stage III colon cancer patients.
Eligible patients with high risk colorectal malignancy (T3/4, spread greater than 5mm, EMVI positive) will have additional surveillance of breath hold T1, T2 and DW-MRIs (no IV contrast) post surgery six monthly for three years. Findings of liver MRIs as reported by radiology PI will be shared with their local MDT who make decisions as appropriate, including the management of any identified liver metastases, according to local protocol.
The aim of this multicenter trial is to determine the efficacy of preoperative intravenous iron suppletion in comparison with the standard preoperative oral substitution in anaemic patients with colorectal cancer in curing the anemia and the assess the effect of preoperative iron on morbidity, postoperative recovery and quality of life. Hypothesis: It is our hypothesis that a more profound approach of preoperative anaemia with intravenous iron will lead to a higher percentage of patients with normalization of Hb-level (> 12 g/dl (7.5 mmol/l) for women and > 13 g/dl (8 mmol/l) for men), which potentially reduces morbidity, length of stay, improves quality of live, decreases fatigue and could be more cost effective compared to current practice with oral substitution of iron.
This is an open-label phase I/II multi-center study consisting of two parts. Part A of this study is designed to identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of lapatinib combined with trametinib in patients with metastatic KRASm and PIK3CA wild-type (PIK3CAwt) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Part B is designed to perform a randomized comparison of the lapatinib-trametinib combination versus standard of care therapy in patients with metastatic KRASm/PIK3CAwt NSCLC.
Patients with suspected or proven sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma, eligible for curative treatment whose MRI can be reviewed prior to surgery and has no decision regarding radical treatment are eligible. Patient are randomised to the control arm which the standard care of preoperative CT imaging and subsequent discussion by the Multidisciplinary Team or the interventional arm which has the additional use of MRI imaging and subsequent discussion by the Multidisciplinary Team. Patients are followed up at 1 and 3 years together with QoL questionnaires.
Colorectal cancer incidence is increasing at an alarming rate in China. Recent reports concluded aberrant immunological function was associated with colorectal cancer outcome, however, the influence of immunocyte subgroup and immunologic factors on cancer outcome in colorectal cancer survivors is largely unknown.The investigators will explore the impact of immunocyte subgroup and immunologic factors on colorectal cancer disease-specific, disease-free and overall survival. The investigators will recruit approximately 5,000 patients as a prospective study cohort. During follow up, the investigators will explore the association of these factors with outcome of patients. The investigators believe that this project will improve the understanding of the impact of immunocyte subgroup and immunologic factors on colorectal cancer outcome.
As an approach to improve efficacy and provide clinical benefit to cancer patients undergoing chemotherapeutic treatment regimens, Alchemia Oncology has developed a novel means for delivering anti-cancer agents to tumours. The drug delivery platform is based on the use of hyaluronic acid (HA), a novel excipient, in which, formulation with HA results in optimisation of cytotoxic drug uptake and retention within solid tumours. In the specific example of HA-Irinotecan, this new formulation of irinotecan has demonstrated enhanced efficacy in both nonclinical and early clinical studies. The current study is an investigation into the use of HA-Irinotecan in a Phase II single arm trial of FOLF(HA)iri plus cetuximab in irinotecan-naïve second line patients with KRAS wild type metastatic colorectal cancer. The study objectives are to confirm the safety and efficacy of FOLF(HA)iri plus cetuximab as second-line therapy in irinotecan-naïve metastatic colorectal cancer patients. It is expected that the study recruit approximately 40-50 patients in 1 year with subsequent treatment and follow up; thus the trial will run for approximately 2-3 years.
The patients will receive hepatectomy as a 2 stage procedure. In the first surgical procedure liver segments 2-3 are removed and liver donor segments 2-3 inserted. After growth of donor segments 2-3, the remaining liver segments of the recipient are removed. The patient will at this time have only donor liver tissue in place.
Colorectal cancer incidence is increasing at an alarming rate in China. Recent reports concluded nutrition status and lifestyle factors were associated with colorectal cancer risk, however, the influence of nutrition and lifestyle factors on cancer outcome in colorectal cancer survivors is largely unknown.The investigators will explore the impact of nutrition status, life style, dietary pattern, obesity, physical activity, depression, diabetes, aspirin use and vitamin supplement on colorectal cancer outcome. The investigators will recruit approximately 50,000 patients as a prospective study cohort. During follow up, the investigators will explore the association of these factors with disease-specific survival, disease-free survival and overall survival of patients. The investigators believe that this project will facilitate the establishment of domestic nutrition and lifestyle data of colorectal cancer of China, and the improvement of the quality of clinical management of patients with colorectal cancer.
