Filter by:This is a single arm study evaluating the tolerability and markers of colorectal cancer with a specially designed medical food restricted in specific amino acids for the dietary management of subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer. Subjects will be receiving two FDA approved second line drug therapies, fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin ± bevacizumab (FOLFIRI + BEV) that are routinely prescribed in combination for metastatic colorectal cancer as part of their routine care.
To test the applicability of the Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) in an LMIC setting and to compare the prevalence and severity of complications in patients <60 and ≥60 years of age a retrospective medical records review is used.
A clinical trial to assess the efficacy, mechanism of action and safety of the Colovac+ Colorectal Anastomosis Protection Device in providing temporary protection of the anastomosis in subjects undergoing lower anterior resection for colorectal cancer
Primary Objective: -Evaluate the resection rate (R0/R1) in current practice for aflibercept in combination with irinotecan plus 5-fluorouracil (FOLFIRI) in patients treated for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) after failure of an oxaliplatin-containing regimen Secondary Objectives: - Evaluate overall survival, progression-free survival and relapse-free survival. - Evaluate conversion rates (initially unresectable disease which became resectable after chemotherapy, with R0/R1 resection). - Evaluate histological and radiological response rates. - Evaluate rate of postoperative complications. - Evaluate safety.
The PICoC study aims to investigate whether oral ferric maltol given postoperatively offers an improvement in patient and clinician reported outcomes compared to standard care.
The overall goal of this study is to develop a comprehensive, culturally tailored community-based colorectal cancer (CRC) prevention model with a dual emphasis on reducing CRC risk along with its CVD risk factors. The study intervention has two components: Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) to address CRC screening and a web-based lifestyle program called "Alive!" to address CVD risk factors linked to CRC. The C.H.U.R.C.H. Trial (Community Health workers (CHW) United to Reduce Colorectal cancer and cardiovascular disease among people at Higher risk) has four specific aims: (1) to compare the effect of a CHW-Led SBIRT (Intervention) to Referral As Usual (RAU) (Usual Care) on guideline-concordant CRC screening uptake; (2) to evaluate the effect of a Culturally Adapted CHW-linked Alive! (CACA) program incorporated into the intervention arm on dietary inflammatory score (DIS); (3) to evaluate the effect of CACA on changes in Life Simple-7 (LS7) scores; and (4) to examine the multi-level contextual mechanisms and factors influencing CHW effectiveness, reach, and implementation of CRC screening uptake and CACA activities through a mixed-methods process evaluation. Given the broad reach and influence of Black churches, results from this study can be used to inform future scale up of this multi-pronged intervention.
The aim of this project is to promote the breath volatile marker concept for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening by advancing developing the application of a novel hybrid analyzer for the purpose. The hybrid analyzer concept is expected to benefit of combining metal-oxide (MOX) and infrared spectrum (IR) sensor acquired data. The current study will be the first globally to address this concept in CRC detection. In addition, traditional methods, in particular, gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) will be used to address the biological relevance of the VOCs emission from cancer tissue and will assist in further advances of the hybrid-sensing approach.
In France, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death. Its organized screening (Organized ColoRectal Cancer Screening: DOCCR), now carried out by immunological test for occult blood in the stool, has proven its effectiveness. When the immunological test is positive, the Haute Autorité de Santé recommends a total colonoscopy. In 5 to 10% of cases, this colonoscopy is incomplete. The renewal of the endoscopic procedure or the performance of additional second-line examinations are then recommended. At present, however, the respective place of second-line examinations to be performed in this situation is not the subject of specific and validated recommendations.
We performed a retrospective data analysis of patients with synchronously metastasized colorectal cancer, comparing the histological response on the primary tumour to chemotherapy combined with either vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition.
Sintilimab (R&D code: IBI308) is a recombinant human-derived IgG4 type PD-1 monoclonal antibody. PD-1 inhibitor combined with chemotherapy has synergistic effect to further enhance anti-tumor immunity. This study is a phase III clinical study of a three-week regimen of sintilimab combined with the XELOX+ bevacizumab for RAS-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer patients who had not received any treatment before. The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy of sintilimab combined with XELOX + bevacizumab as first line therapy.
