Filter by:The surgical stress of an esophagectomy causes a detrimental impact on the physiological response of the body. In this perspective, one could question whether the current feeding regimens of starting early nutritional support at postoperative day (POD) 1 have a similar negative impact on the muscle mass as documented in critically ill patients. This study will introduce relative starvation in the early days following esophagectomy compared to the current regimen of early enteral nutritional support. The research team aims to investigate whether the negative impact on muscle mass and muscle function might be reduced, which should result in enhanced postoperative recovery. The final result of the study will be a well-documented and scientifically substantiated nutritional regimen for patients who underwent an esophagectomy for cancer.
SHR-1210 is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody. This is an openlabel，single center ，non-randomized ，Single Arm Exploratory Study . This clinical study is an investigator-initiated clinical trial（IIT). The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiation therapy combined with anti-PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 and chemotherapy in patients with Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinomas。
The study consists in a co-clinical trial by using zebrafish embryos. Specifically, an observational prospective clinical trial on patients operated of epato-biliar-pancreatic cancers and gastro-intestinal cancers undergoing a chemotherapy treatment will be run concurrently to an animal trial on zebrafish embryos xenotransplanted with patient cancer cells in order to demonstrate that zebrafish model is able to predict the therapeutic regimen with the best efficacy for each patient.
Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) has been gradually adopted as a feasible and effective treatment option for esophageal cancer. Previously the investigators have published the adoption of single-incision approach both in the thoracoscopic and laparoscopic phases in MIE (SIMIE).The preliminary clinical results showed that SIMIE can provide an equivalent perioperative outcome whereas reduced the wound pain on the days 7 after surgery as compared to MIE performed with multi-incision (MIMIE). The goal of the current study was to conduct a prospective randomized trial to compare the perioperative outcome and survival of SIMIE and MIMIE.
After the esophagectomy, the stomach is most commonly used to restore continuity of the upper gastro-intestinal tract. The esophagogastric anastomosis is prone to serious complications such as anastomotic leakage (AL) The reported incidence of AL after esophagectomy ranges from 5%-20%. The AL associated mortality ranges from 18-40% compared with an overall in-hospital mortality of 4-6%. The main cause of AL is tissue hypoxia, which results from impaired perfusion of the pedicle stomach graft. Clinical judgment is unreliable in determining anastomotic perfusion. Therefore, an objective, validated, and reproducible method to evaluate tissue perfusion at the anastomotic site is urgently needed. Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) is a near infrared fluorescent (NIRF) perfusion imaging using indocyanine green (ICG). ICGA is a safe, easy and reproducible method for graft perfusion analysis, but it is not yet calibrated. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of quantification of ICGA to assess graft perfusion and its influence on AL in patients after minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy (MIE) for cancer.
This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label, multi-center study of JAB-3068 in Patients with advanced solid tumors.This study has two phases: dose escalation phase and dose expansion phase.
This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 1 study of orally administered VMD-928 in adult subjects with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma that have progressed or are non responsive to available therapies and for which no standard or available curative therapy exists
Patients with resectable solid primary cancers and even limited number of metastases are potentially curable. However, most patients develop recurrences despite surgery. Also, early detection of lung cancer with low dose CT screening may cure patients at an early stage. Circulating and disseminated tumor cell (CTC/DTC) and circulating cell-free (cf) DNA isolation from the blood, urine and bone marrow will increase understanding of cancer spread and advance knowledge to develop individualized therapies and improve screening.
To assess the efficacy and feasibility of high-dose intensity-modulated radiotherapy with concurrent weekly paclitaxel and cisplatin for patients with locoregionally advanced esophageal cancer
This is a phase 1, multi-center, dose escalation, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of JAB-3068 in adult patients with advanced solid.
