Filter by:Cancer prehabilitation typically involves multiple pre-op visits. The investigators aim to assess the impact of their novel model, a "one-stop "service by a small, "levelled-up" core team on newly diagnosed colorectal cancer patients planned for surgery.
Fecal immunochemical test (FIT) was introduced in France late 2015, FIT has better diagnostic accuracy for colorectal cancers (CRCs) than previous screening tests. Our primary objective was to evaluate the sensitivity of FIT and the proportion of interval cancer.
In this study, we aimed to identify the different histopathological features of tumors with microsatellite instability (MSI) compared to microsatellite stable (MSS) in patients who underwent surgery for colorectal cancer. We also planned to determine how MSI affects prognostic parameters.
The purpose of this study is to identify patients who may be eligible to participate in a separate Phase 2/3 treatment study evaluating an individualized neoantigen vaccine GRANITE for first line (1L) maintenance treatment of metastatic, microsatellite-sable colorectal cancer (MSS-CRC) sponsored by Gritstone bio. This may include the manufacturing of an individualized vaccine, which involves neoantigen prediction and generating a vaccine targeting neoantigens.
This phase Ib trial studies the safety and side effects of a vaccine (PolyPEPI1018 vaccine) in combination with TAS-102 in treating patients with colorectal that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). PolyPEPI1018 peptide vaccine is used to immunize against proteins present on the surface of tumor cells. This vaccine can activate the body's immune cells, called T cells. T cells fight infections and can also kill cancer cells. TAS-102 may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Giving PolyPEPI1018 and TAS-102 may kill more tumor cells in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) and chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) are relatively frequent and potentially fatal diseases. However, studies that are comparing clinical outcomes between CRC and CLTI patients in more advanced stages of the disease are lacking. The study aim was to evaluate outcomes of patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) treated by curative-intent liver resection and CLTI patients according to wound, ischemia, foot infection (WIfI) classification by comparing the short- and long-term clinical outcomes.
Behavioral economics principles have increasingly been shown to improve health outcomes in the United States. They offer the ability to implement simple, low-cost and effective interventions to address key health issues without sacrificing the autonomy of patients. Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is a key area where behavioral economics principles can help improve health outcomes. Despite being the second leading cause of cancer related death, the rate of CRC screening remains well below national targets. Interventions to address these issues, and improve screening rates at our institution have including implementing a Mailed FIT outreach program, and adding an informational letter that utilizes behavioral economic principles. To further improve our screening rates, this project builds upon our previous efforts to include a randomized electronic message primer via patients electronic patient portal, to help alert them of incoming FIT Kit and complete screening. This study will contribute to the growing literature of behavioral economics in medicine, while addressing an important health issue.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of transvaginal natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) in patients who are planning multiport laparoscopic surgery for resection of solid organs including kidney, liver, stomach, adrenal gland and bladder.
This study learns if depression, anxiety, and catastrophizing (thought patterns that prompt people to expect the worst) are associated with chronic pain after surgery among patients who are scheduled to have cytoreductive surgery with intraoperative hyperthermic chemotherapy. Information from this study may improve the understanding of persistent and chronic postsurgical pain integrating multiple layers of biological and behavioral sciences.
The primary goal of this trial is to assess clinical response to nivolumab and pixatimod, and, nivolumab, pixatimod and cyclophosphamide in three separate patient cohorts. Cohort 1: MSS mCRC in combination with low-dose cyclophosphamide, Cohort 2: PD-1 relapsed/refractory melanoma, and Cohort 3: PD-1 relapsed/refractory NSCLC.
