There are about 36818 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in China. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the application of red cell lysis buffer (RCLB) versus conventional sample processing in endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided biopsy for solid pancreatic lesions. The main questions it aims to answer are: whether the application of red cell lysis buffer improves histological tissue quality by decreasing blood contamination. Participants with solid pancreatic lesions who needs histological diagnosis will receive EUS-guided biopsy. The obtained specimens will be processed by RCLB and conventional formalin solution. Researchers will compare the blood contamination score of specimens in RCLB group with the conventional group see if the blood contamination can be improved.
This study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of SHR4640 tablets in subjects with moderate renal insufficiency and healthy subjects, and to explore the relationship between renal function (e.g., eGFR) and SHR4640 pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common gastrointestinal tumors. According to the latest cancer report, the incidence and mortality rates of CRC are both ranked top 5 among malignant tumors worldwide and continue to rise. Patients who receive treatment in the early stage (stage I) have a 5-year survival rate of approximately 90%. However, for high-risk stage II and III colorectal cancer patients, the 5-year survival rate is only 40%-70%, and almost half of the patients experience postoperative recurrence and metastasis. Evidence suggests that Stage III CRC patients can benefit from standard adjuvant chemotherapy. It is worth noting that some high-risk stage II patients, especially those with T4N0, have a poorer prognosis compared to stage IIIA (T1-2N+). Adjuvant chemotherapy is now also recommended for postoperative cases of high-risk stage II CRC. Given the high effectiveness of the three-drug FOLFOXIRI regimen in treating metastatic CRC and the success of adjuvant chemotherapy in treating pancreatic cancer, the combination of 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan may have a synergistic effect. Extensive study results have shown that: (a) The status of ctDNA methylation after surgery is significantly correlated with patient prognosis, and patients who are positive for ctDNA methylation in the first 1-4 weeks after surgery (before adjuvant chemotherapy) have a poor prognosis. (b) Patients who are ctDNA methylation positive in the first 1-4 weeks after surgery (before adjuvant chemotherapy) can benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy, and achieving ctDNA methylation negativity through adjuvant chemotherapy significantly improves patient prognosis. This project focuses on exploring the optimized mode of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for high-risk stage II and III CRC guided by ctDNA methylation, which has high scientific and innovative value. This multicenter, prospective, and randomized controlled cohort study uses a single-tube methylation-specific quantitative PCR (mqMSP) detection, which detects 10 different methylation markers and can quantitatively analyze plasma samples containing tumor DNA as low as 0.05%. This study will use this ctDNA methylation detection technology to perform quantitative detection of ctDNA methylation in the plasma of enrolled patients, and explore the effect of different chemotherapy regimens on ctDNA clearance rate and the prognostic value for ctDNA positive patients. We hope to screen out high-risk populations for recurrence through postoperative ctDNA testing, and administer more intensive chemotherapy regimens (chemotherapy upgrading) as early as possible to improve ctDNA clearance rate and patient prognosis.
A Single-Center Retrospective Study About Efficacy and Safety of Eribulin-Based Regimen in the Treatment of Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer and Comparison With Other Chemotherapy Regimen
In recent years, due to the frequent occurrence of kidney disease and diabetes, the number of patients entering maintenance hemodialysis is increasing. With the economic development and dialysis quality improving year by year, the survival time of uremic patients is significantly prolonged, and the hazards of various complications are increasingly prominent. Cognitive impairment is a common complication of maintenance hemodialysis patients, and its specific mechanism is not yet clear. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are independent risk factors for cognitive impairment. The prevalence of cognitive impairment is higher in patients with type 2 diabetes and advanced chronic kidney disease, especially in patients with diabetes and end-stage renal disease (ESKD). T2DM and ESKD independently increase the risk of cerebrovascular disease and cognitive impairment. However, the relationship between diabetes mellitus and cognitive function in maintenance hemodialysis patients is unclear. However, compared with the general population, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) had more severe brain atrophy, and the severity of white matter lesions on brain MRI increased. To sum up, the study of cognitive dysfunction is very important in maintenance hemodialysis patients with diabetes. It is urgent for us to explore the changes of cognitive impairment and brain magnetic resonance in maintenance hemodialysis patients with diabetes, so as to help detect brain cell damage and improve the survival rate and quality of life in the early stage of the disease.
The proper selection of the lowest instrumented vertebra (LIV) remains controversial in the surgical treatment of Scheuermann's disease and there is a paucity of studies investigating the clinical outcomes of fusion surgery when selecting the vertebra one level proximal to the sagittal stable vertebra (SSV-1) as LIV. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether SSV-1 could be a valid LIV for Scheuermann kyphosis (SK) patients with different curve patterns.
Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignant tumor. Radical resection is the mainstay of treatments for non-metastatic colorectal cancer. In case of traditional laparoscopic surgery, inexperienced assistants are likely to cause side injuries and interfere surgeon due to limited operating space. Reduced-port laparoscopic surgery has only 3 ports for surgeon and observer, and the surgeon completes the surgery independently, which increases the difficulty of the operation. However, reduced-port laparoscopy has some potential advantages and applications. Reduced-port laparoscopic surgery avoids the prolongation of the operation time and parainjury caused by inexperienced assistant. Reduced-port laparoscopy reduces some surgical incisions, resulting in less pain and faster recovery. Reduced-port laparoscopy also reduces the consumables, human resources and medical expenses. This study aims to evaluate the curative effect and safety of reduced-port laparoscopic surgery versus conventional laparoscopic surgery for resectable colorectal cancer.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and feasibility of intra-arterial albumin infusion for patients with acute ischemic stroke after successful thrombectomy and to further explore the optimal dose of albumin through the implementation of a 3 + 3 dose-escalation design.
The study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) guided by the personalized Brain Functional Sector (pBFS) technique in the treatment of patients with chronic post-stroke cognitive impairment.
In order to explore the safety and antitumor efficacy of different doses of CDK4/6 inhibitor Palbociclib in combination with the autophagy inhibitor hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) , a phase Ib/II study was conducted. This study will adopt a 3+3 design and include three predefined dose groups of palbociclib: 100mg QD, 150mg QD, and 200mg QD. Initially, 600mg bid dose of hydroxychloroquine group will be administered in combination. The trial will use the first cycle (28 days) as the observation period for tolerability, observing and evaluating the occurrence of DLTs after medication and determining the maximum tolerated dose/maximum administered dose (MTD/MAD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the combination therapy. This study improves the efficacy of CDK4/6 inhibitors in the treatment of solid tumors by reversing DTP status through the use of HCQ.
