Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and the effect of perioperative chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of S-1 plus oxaliplatin combination chemotherapy based on the adverse events and survival period by performing a phase I/II study of this combination in patients with D2 resection of gastric cancer.
Gastric bypass improves glycemic levels in type 2 diabetes. However, the efficacy may be varied by different gastric-small intestine reconstruction used in the procedure. There are reports that Roux en Y reconstruction may give a better result. The purpose of this study is to compare Roux en Y and Billroth II reconstruction in patients with gastric cancer comorbid with type 2 diabetes.
The Objectives of this study is 1. To evaluate the efficacy for exercise, diet, and posttraumatic growth as a result of participating in tailored program (Health Partnership Program) for 24 weeks 2. To evaluate the efficacy for quality of life, life satisfaction, health leadership, anxiety, depression, impact of event, social support, cancer belief as a result of participating in tailored program (Health Partnership Program) for 24 weeks 3. To assess the efficacy of such intervention compared with usual care in cancer patients
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good or bad, the combination of standard chemotherapy agent paclitaxel with the investigational (experimental) drug afatinib that targets HER2, has on HER2-positive esophagogastric cancer that started to get bigger despite previous treatment with trastuzumab. The doctors will also study the tumor to understand why it grew while on trastuzumab treatment and to see the effects afatinib and paclitaxel has on the tumor.
There is evidence that gastrointestinal operations for non weight-losing purposes are beneficial for diabetes mellitus. Aiming to analyze such hypothesis, patients submitted to gastric bypass for morbid obesity, gastrectomy for gastric cancer and colectomy for colo-rectal cancer will be compared. The end point will be changes in fasting blood glucose and hemoglobin A1c concentration.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of chemotherapy, consisting of docetaxel, cisplatin and capecitabine given prior to surgery for stomach cancer. Furthermore, an extended type of removal of lymph nodes will be implemented.
Stage I：Neoadjuvant therapy - Tegafur，Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules plus oxaliplatin is superior to surgery alone;Capecitabine plus oxaliplatin is non-inferiority to Tegafur，Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules plus oxaliplatin Stage II: Perioperative therapy - Perioperative Tegafur，Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules plus oxaliplatin is superior to adjuvant Tegafur，Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules plus oxaliplatin alone;Capecitabine plus oxaliplatin regimen is noninferiority to Tegafur,Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules plus oxaliplatin - A regimen of Tegafur，Gimeracil and Oteracil Potassium Capsules plus oxaliplatin(SOX) and Capecitabine plus oxaliplatin(XELOX) improves survival among patients with incurable locally advanced or metastatic gastric cancer. The investigators assessed whether the addition of a perioperative regimen of SOX or XELOX regimen to adjuvant alone improves R0 resection rate and survival among patients with curable locally advanced gastric cancer.
Primary Objective: - To compare the 3-year progression free survival (PFS) in the two treatment arms. Secondary Objectives: - Overall survival (OS). - Postoperative pathological stage and R0 (complete) resection rate. - Safety: Toxicities associated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, morbidity/mortality, toxicity of adjuvant chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine dose limiting toxicities (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of RAD001, as well as to assess tumor response and overall survival.
