Gastric is one of the most prevalence digestive malignance tumors in China. Radical resection of primary tumors and combine with dissection of regional lymph-nodes is acknowledged by surgeons all over the world. Nowadays, in order to improve the quality of life, controversies still exist to the reconstruction methods of total gastrectomy. Although roux-en-y anastomosis is the most common method adopted after total gastrectomy for it is an easily and safety method reconstruction method, but some problems still need us to solve, such as little food reserves, less food intake per meal and fast gastric emptying. These problems significantly affect the patients' quality of life after surgery. Roux-en-Y+Jejunal pouch anastomosis is newly born method can significant increase the volume to improve postoperative quality of life have been proven by some little sample size randomized control trail With the improvement of the gastric cancer surgery, this study proposed by prospective randomized controlled clinical trials aimed to comparing quality of life after traditional Roux-en-Y type and Roux-en-Y+ Jejunal pouch type anastomosis for radical total gastrectomy. Quality of life was evaluated according to the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality Of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 and QLQ-STO22. Quality of life will conducted in the 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months after gastrectomy.
Phase 1: Assessment of safety and tolerability of ADI-PEG 20 in combination with folinic acid (leucovorin), fluorouracil and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) in advanced GI malignancies. Phase 2: Assessment of the objective response rate (ORR), measured by RECIST 1.1 criteria as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of S-1 plus Leucovorin (1 week on and 1 week off) as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic and recurrent gastric cancer.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a study on genetic pathology, obtaining of pure cancer tissues is mandatory. Although the endoscopy with biopsy has been a gold standard for diagnosing gastric cancer, percentage of cancer cells in biopsy samples is usually 30% or less. Recently, confocal laser endomicroscopy has been introduced for real-time histopathologic diagnosis in various cancers. The investigators aim to evaluate that biopsy using probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy will increase the percentage of cancer cells in biopsy samples.
This pilot study will aim to determine whether circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be captured using the novel cMET based ferrofluid. The primary objective of this pilot study will be to describe the numbers of c-MET expressing cells that can be detected by the c-MET CTC capture technique. These data will be separated by disease site. The investigator will also describe the detection rates of both the c-MET CTC capture and the EpCAM CTC capture techniques in each patient, also separated by disease site.
The goals of this study is to determine if nelfinavir can target Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) in patients with certain cancers.
The objective of this phase 2 study is to evaluate the feasibility of an early palliative care intervention for metastatic cancer patients. Feasibility will be assessed in terms of percentage of patients that accept the proposal of the early palliative care intervention and that effectively start to be followed in the palliative care out-patient clinic. The study will be performed in a consecutive series of newly diagnosed patients affected by lung cancer (NSCLC or SCLC, stage IIIb, IV), mesothelioma (stage II, IV), pancreas (stage IV), stomach (stage IIIb-IV).
Peripheral blood will be taken from the enrolled patients at National University Hospital and from healthy volunteers. ADCC assay will be performed for evaluating efficacy of new medicine candidates.
The aim of this study was to investigate changes in abdominal tissue perfusion during adenosine vasodilation. Our hypotheses were that CT perfusion measurements are altered by changes in the circulatory system mediated by adenosine, and a more differentiated assessment of the circulatory capacity of abdominal tumours could be achieved by sequential rest and adenosine vasodilation CT perfusion measurements.
