Filter by:Freenome is using a type of artificial intelligence, called machine learning, to identify patterns of cell-free biomarkers in blood to detect cancer early. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a blood-based assay to detect colorectal cancer by collecting blood and stool samples from healthy patients undergoing routine screening colonoscopy and from patients recently diagnosed with colorectal cancer or advanced adenomas.
The study will evaluate the effect of ACT-774312 on the nasal polyps and will assess the safety and tolerability of ACT-774312 in the patients with bilateral nasal polyposis
Topical and systemic steroids constitute the first choice in medical treatment for nasal polyps. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a short course of budesonide inhalation suspension via transnasal nebulization in the preoperative management of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. The second aim was to compare budesonide inhalation suspension with budesonide aqueous nasal spray and oral prednisone in nasal polyp treatment.
Cancer treatments have successfully improved cancer outcomes but frequently negatively impact quality of life in cancer survivors. In particular, chemotherapy (CTX) has been associated with impaired cognitive abilities such as concentration and memory. The goal is to investigate the neural mechanisms of chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) using an interdisciplinary translational approach. Previous research in this area lacks diversity in studied cancer populations and treatments focusing primarily on breast cancer and provides limited understanding of how CRCI emerges from changes in neural structure, function, and connectivity. To overcome these limitations, this feasibility/pilot study aims to investigate CRCI in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC).
Study evaluating the effect of a personalized smart phone application in addition to standard care on bowel preparation scores, compared to standard care alone.
A non-interventional, prospective, open, multicenter study in Germany in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have been previously treated with, or are not considered candidates for, available therapies and with decision for treatment with trifluridin/tipiracil.
In the UK, around 1 in 16 men and 1 in 20 women will develop bowel cancer at some point in their lives. Most bowel cancers happen when a type of growth in the bowel called an adenoma eventually becomes cancerous. Cutting out adenomas reduces the risk of developing bowel cancer. Certain people are more likely to have adenomas than others, for example people who are overweight. People who are overweight are also more likely to develop liver disease by laying too much fat down in the liver. Studies in Asia have shown that people with fatty liver disease are more likely to have adenomas and these are more commonly found in the part of the bowel (right colon) furthest from the bottom end. Information on the link between obesity, fatty liver disease and adenomas is very limited, particularly in the Western population. The investigators will assess the link between body weight, fatty liver and adenomas in the UK population. 1430 patients will be invited; some through the bowel cancer screening programme and some with symptoms such as low blood count, bleeding or changed bowel habit. These patients will already have been referred for a camera test looking into the bowel, called a colonoscopy. Information including height, weight and some health questions will be taken. Blood samples will be taken. The investigators will compare the number of patients with adenomas who have liver disease or who are overweight with those who don't. This information will be used to develop a scoring system to predict risk of adenomas. This will help the investigators to decide if undertaking colonoscopies in these patients will identify those at increased risk of bowel cancer.
This study will be conducted in adult participants diagnosed with any form of an advanced or progressive MSS CRC for which 1st and 2nd line standard therapy (at least one of which contained fluorouracil) is no longer effective or is intolerable. This is a phase 1b, multi-center, open label study designed to assess safety and tolerability of grapiprant in combination with pembrolizumab, to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) with pembrolizumab, and to evaluate and characterize the PK of grapiprant alone and in combination with pembrolizumab. Disease response, pharmacodynamics, and response biomarkers will also be assessed.
The overall aim with this study is to get a deeper understanding of the potential benefits with a health platform for patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
The overall aim with this study is to gain a deeper understanding of patient perceptions regarding empowerment in relation to a health platform.
