Filter by:This is a two-center open-label non-randomized proof of principle study consisting of a dose-finding part (phase I) and phase II study with Simon two-stage design investigating the anti-tumor activity of the combination of capecitabine and galunisertib in patients with colorectal cancer with peritoneal metastases.
Patients with stage Ⅰ colorectal cancer or stage Ⅱ colon cancer usually have a good prognosis and are not recommended to receive adjuvant chemotherapy after radical surgery. With the advances in liquid biopsy technology, detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can effectively identify early-stage cancer patients with minimal residual disease (MRD) after surgery. According to the growing number of MRD studies in solid tumor, colorectal cancer patients with ctDNA-MRD detection have a poor clinical outcome and are likely to relapse within two years. This study aims to assess the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy with capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPEOX) compared with conventional observation in MRD-positive patients with stage I colorectal cancer and clinically low-risk stage II colon cancer.
Colorectal cancer tissue sections were obtained according to the inclusion criteria. The formalin was used to immersed all cancer specimens. And tissues were cut to 5 μm thickness and placed on glass slides before staining. Endogenous peroxidase activity was inhibited and blocked by de-paraffinizing, rehydrating, and using 5% bovine serum albumin at 37ºC for 30 min. The treated sections were incubated with anti-FOS (promab 30360) at 4ºC overnight and washed three times with PBS. After that, it is required that incubation with secondary anti-peroxidation sunflower at 37ºC for 30 minutes. After washing three times again with PBS, the sections were developed in diaminobenzidine and microscopic images were made by light microscopy.
The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of combining the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor sodium valproate (VPA) with anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody (panitumumab or cetuximab) maintenance in the first-line treatment of patients with RAS wild type metastatic CRC.
To identify Black individuals who are eligible for genetic testing through trusted community organizations, and to connect Black individuals and their families to genetic testing and counseling so that they can know their cancer risk and how to decrease it.
This is a 3-year pragmatic, randomized clinical trial among average-risk patients at diverse primary care practices who are overdue for colorectal (CRC) screening. This project aims to evaluate the effect of a centralized program that includes direct outreach to patients and visit-based, clinician directed nudges facilitated by the electronic health record (EHR) with follow-up text messaging on the uptake of CRC screening. The primary outcome is CRC screening completion at 3 years. Patient and clinician factors impacting the experience and effectiveness of the intervention will be explored through surveys and qualitative interviews.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly heterogenous disease. It the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in the world and the second cause of death among cancer cases mortality. Its incidence is rising all over the world, especially in developing countries . In Egypt it is coming the seventh cancer in incidence according to World Health Organization (WHO, 2020). Although there is much improvement in the diagnosis and treatment, but CRC is still constituting a big impact on human life and health, so researchers are trying to find out new therapeutic targets . Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is an inhibitory receptor which is expressed on the surface of T lymphocytes during activation. Its role is to control T cell effector activity for various cellular responses as infections, autoimmune reactions, and cancer . Cancer cells develop PD-ligand1 (PD-L1) expression which is a transmembrane molecule belonging to B7 family. Its action is through PD-1/PD-L1 reaction, and causing invasion and metastasis of cancer cells by protecting it from immunosurveillance by inhibiting T cell effector function, leading to carcinogenesis and development of many cancers including colorectal cancer.
This is research study is assessing the effects of 6-g daily use of freeze-dried instant coffee on liver fat and fibrosis and the gut microbiome and metabolome in patients who have completed routine treatment (including surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy) for stage I-III colorectal cancer.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of temozolomide and M1774 and how well they works in treating patients with cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and may have spread to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Temozolomide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells and slow down or stop tumor growth. M1774 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Adding M1774 to temozolomide may shrink or stabilize cancer for longer than temozolomide alone.
This is a prospective randomized trial to improve the results of treatment of patients with colorectal neoplasms.
