Filter by:To compare the effects of TAS-102 with placebo in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer refractory or intolerable to standard chemotherapies.
Primary Objectives: Study Part 1: To determine the recommended dose for the aflibercept, oxaliplatin and capecitabine (XELOX) combination to be used in the Part 2 of the study. Study Part 2: To assess the percentage of patients without progression of the disease at 6 months after the start of maintenance therapy with aflibercept single-agent, following the first-line induction therapy with XELOX and aflibercept combination in patients with previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer. Secondary Objective: Study Part 2: Include the evaluation of progression free survival, overall survival, response to treatment, the overall safety (during induction and maintenance therapy) and the assessment of aflibercept pharmacodynamics and biomarkers parameters.
This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of linaclotide acetate in preventing colorectal cancer in healthy volunteers. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of linaclotide acetate may prevent colorectal cancer.
The study should create data for the selection of a clinically relevant primary endpoint to assess the efficacy and safety of Buparid/PARI SINUS as compared to Budes Nasal Spray in the therapy of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with polyposis nasi in adult patients. Ideally, the selected parameter should allow a correlation between an objective methodology and the clinical outcome of the study patients.
Through this program, the investigators will test a systematic colon cancer screening outreach strategy for increasing screening completion among uninsured patients, not up-to-date with screening. The intervention will consist of mailed screening invitations, with processes such as phone reminders to promote screening and evidence based follow up. All patients will be randomly assigned to receive mailed invitations to complete a home fecal immunochemical test (FIT). Some patients will be randomly assigned to receive a small financial incentive on completion of FIT testing.
The main purpose of this study is to examine changes in patient-reported symptoms during the first two cycles of neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer (CRC) and breast cancer, among patients who receive standard care plus a proactive nursing intervention relative to patients who receive standard care alone. Interventions to improve symptom management and prevent urgent care needs in both the clinic and hospital for patients receiving chemotherapy with curative intent are needed to enhance the quality of cancer care.
Objective: To test the sensitivity of a proprietary novel filtration device designed to capture and concentrate circulating tumor cells (CTCs).
This is a phase II trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of Metformin and Fluorouracil in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) who have progressed after Oxaliplatin and Irinotecan based chemotherapy.
Magnesium sulphate is given to the patients during the colorectal cancer surgery under the hypothesis that it would attenuate the postoperative hypercoagulability. The investigators intend to characterize the changes of coagulation in colorectal cancer patients by using the point-of-care device after the infusion of magnesium sulphate.
Prior to the use of genomic tests for patient inclusion in clinical trials, it is essential for the Jules Bordet Institute (JBI) to pilot the logistical and technical aspects by examining the feasibility and turnaround time of performing and obtaining data from a few key molecular assays. Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma will be enrolled. Biopsie from metastatic lesions will be performed. A targeted cancer gene screen assay will be performed using DNA sequencing. Results will be discussed during a molecular screening tumor board.
