Filter by:Prehabilitation utilizes the preoperative period to prevent or attenuate the treatment-related functional decline and its consequences. This project aims at testing feasibility and effectiveness of multimodal prehabilitation in esophageal cancer care.
This is a prospective cohort study designed to evaluate the treatment effect as well as predictive and prognostic factors with special emphasis on the clinical utility of ctDNA in plasma in patients with gastroesophageal cancer. Patients with gastroesophageal cancer are included in 5 separate cohorts scheduled for - Surgical resection + perioperative chemotherapy (cohort 1) - Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgical resection (cohort 2) - Definitive chemoradiotherapy with curative intent (cohort 3) - Systemic therapy with the intent to prolong survival (cohort 4) - Palliative treatment without the use of chemotherapy (cohort 5)
The investigators propose to compare recurrence-free survival in patients having potentially curative (Stages 1-3) surgery for esophageal cancer who will be randomly assigned to propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia or sevoflurane-based balanced general anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Camrelizumab combined with or without radiotherapy for the treatment of recurrent or metastatic esophageal cancer that has progressed after chemotherapy
The esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has high prevalence and mortality in China, which become a severe challenge for public health. The molecular imaging technology has been developed for visualization and precise diagnosis of the tumors. Integrin αvβ3 is a specific marker for tumor. Noninvasive visualization and quantitative analysis of integrin αvβ3 expression provide new opportunities for tumor diagnosis, identification and efficacy monitoring. The peptide containing Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) can specifically bind to integrin αvβ3 receptor with high selectivity and affinity to achieve the detecting tumor .The SPECT/CT with 99mTc-3PRGD2 has a high specificity in the diagnosis of mediastinal lymphnode metastasis and a greater value in the decision-making of lymphnode dissection. This study is a single-center self-controlled study, It is planned to enroll 30 patients with esophageal cancer , preliminarily confirmed by endoscopic biopsy, . After intravenous injection of 0.3 mCi/kg of 99mTC-3PRGD2, patients underwent single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) examination.Subsequently, the patients received chest/abdomen enhanced CT and 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission computed tomography /CT (PET/CT) for diagnosis. According to the determination of the researcher, patients who were suitable for surgery received surgery to obtain surgical pathology; For patients who were not suitable for surgery, ultrasound-guided lyphnode biop was performed .In this study, pathological specimens were obtained from gastroscopy, surgical pathology, or ultrasound-guided lymph node biopsy. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity , specificity and safety of SPECT/CT with 99mTc-3PRGD2 were evaluated and compared with PET-CT and enhanced CT.
This is a randomized open-label multicentre Phase III superiority study of the effect of adding SBRT to the standard of care treatment on overall survival in patients with rare oligometastatic cancers. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio between current standard of care treatment vs. standard of care treatment + SBRT to all sites of known metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to assess if the addition of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to standard of care treatment improves overall survival (OS) as compared to standard of care treatment alone in patients with rare oligometastatic cancers.
A clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of genetically-engineered, neoantigen-specific Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) in which the intracellular immune checkpoint CISH has been inhibited using CRISPR gene editing for the treatment of Gastro-Intestinal (GI) Cancer.
This is a prospective study on the microbiota associated with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Patients with newly diagnosed SCC of oesophagus would be recruited for taking samples of oral and oesophageal rinse, tissue biopsies for investigation of the microbiota of oesophageal cancer. Control patients would be identified from patients scheduled for routine endoscopy.
This is a randomized, controlled, multi-center, open trial, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients that failed at least second-line treatment and overexpressed EGFR were enrolled and randomly assigned to the experimental group and control group at a 1: 1 ratio.,who received Larotinib and the chemotherapy regimen chosen by the investigator (Irinotecan Hydrochloride Injection or Tegafur Gimeracil Oteracil Potassium Capsule),respecitively. Subjects are administered until disease progression assessed by the RECIST V1.1 standard (unless the investigator evaluates that the subject continues to have clinical benefit from continuing treatment, the subject may be allowed to continue treatment), and begins to receive new anti-tumor treatment, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, or other conditions that meet the criteria for terminating trial treatment / withdrawal from the trial. The research phase of this study is divided into pre-screening period (~ D-28), screening period (D-28 ~ D-1), treatment period, treatment end visit (± 7 days after the last dose), safety follow-up ( Until 28 ± 7 days after the last dose) and survival follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping with ICG dye and NIR imaging can be used to identify esophageal or esophagogastric junction cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes. If SLN mapping is successful in these types of cancer, surgeons in the future could identify the sentinel lymph nodes and only remove these instead of removing all the lymph nodes which is currently done.
