Filter by:Due to COVID 19 (Corona virus disease)pandemic, majority of surgeries, including surgery for cancer patients got delayed across the globe. Surgeries were limited to emergency set up only. At our institute we tried to perform colorectal cancer surgeries through out the pandemic, albeit in less numbers, as we thought cancer in itself is an emergency setting. we are planning to analyse the prospectively managed database of this particular group of patients over a period of last six 6 months and look out at 30 day post operative morbidity and mortality. Besides we will try to analyse the implications of our decision to carry on with cancer surgeries in terms of number of health care workers who got infected while being involved in primary care of these patients.
This research is being done to study the effects of the combination of ipilimumab, nivolumab, and radiation therapy in people with metastatic microsatellite stable colorectal cancer. This research study involves the following drugs and interventions: - Ipilimumab - Nivolumab - Radiation Therapy
This trial investigates how well acupuncture works for the management of pain after surgery in patients having open colorectal or pancreatic surgery. Acupuncture may help to reduce postoperative symptoms including pain. This study may help researchers learn if acupuncture reduces after-surgery side effects and improves recovery.
This phase I trial investigates the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of BAY 1895344 in combination with FOLFIRI in treating patients with stomach or intestinal cancer that that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). BAY 1895344 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as irinotecan, fluorouracil, and leucovorin, (called FOLFIRI in short) work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving BAY 1895344 in combination with FOLFIRI may help shrink advanced or metastatic stomach and/or intestinal cancer.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of mFOLFOXIRI plus cetuximab and avelumab as first line treatment of patients with initially unresectable and previously untreated RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), in terms of Progression-free Survival.
This is a single arm, open-label, dose escalation, PK expansion and efficacy expansion study of phase I. The purpose of this study is to assess the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of SHR-A1811 and preliminary anti-tumor efficacy in HER2-expressing advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma and colorectal cancer.
This study examines at-home monitoring of patient-generated phsyiologic health data and patient-reported outcomes. Patient-generated health data using at-home monitoring devices and smart device applications are used more and more to measure value and quality in cancer care. This trial may show whether at-home monitoring programs can improve the care of patients after hospital discharge from surgery.
This study, led by the American Samoa Community Cancer Coalition's INdigenous Samoan Partnership to Initiate Research Excellence (INSPIRE) and the UH Cancer Center's project team including Dr. Cassel, will utilize a community-based and culturally relevant process to assess the uptake of fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) using tailored colorectal cancer patient education materials for those with inadequate health literacy. Our primary outcomes include: 1) process to develop "suitable" and "comprehensible" health promotion materials for populations in English and Samoan with various health literacy levels, 2) commitment to use the FOBT Colocare home kit, and 3) use of a FOBT Colocare home kit.
The study evaluates the effectiveness of radiotherapy combined with raltitrexed and irinotecan in treating patients who have metastatic or locally recurrent colorectal cancer that has not responded to fluorouracil. The patients will receive radiotherapy combined with raltitrexed and irinotecan, and then the surgeons will evaluate whether they should receive a surgery.
Background: Metastatic or refractory/recurrent small bowel and colorectal cancers cannot be cured and are often not helped by standard treatments. Researchers want to find better treatments by testing a combination of drugs. Objective: To learn if a new combination of immunotherapy drugs can shrink tumors in people with advanced small bowel and colorectal cancers. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have advanced metastatic or refractory/recurrent small bowel and/or colorectal cancer. Design: Participants will be screened on a separate protocol. They will have a physical exam and medical history. They will have imaging scans. They will have blood and urine tests. Their heart function will be measured. They may have a tumor biopsy. Participants will repeat some of the screening tests during the study. Participants will be put into study groups. Each group will get a combination of the following drugs: CV301 vaccine (modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA)-BN-CV301 and Fowlpox (FPV)-CV301), M7824 (MSB0011359C), and N-803 (Anktiva). Some will also get NHS-IL12 (M9241). Participants will get the CV301 vaccines by injection under the skin. They will get M7824 by intravenous infusion every 2 weeks. They will get N-803 by injection under the skin every 2 or 4 weeks. They may get NHS-IL12 by injection under the skin every 4 weeks. They will take the study drugs for up to 1 year. They will visit the National Institutes of Health (NIH) every 2 weeks. After treatment ends, participants will go to the clinic for a 28-day follow-up visit or have a telephone call. They will be contacted every 3 months for 1 year, and then every 6 months after that for the rest of their life.
