Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare two types of care - standard oncology care and standard oncology care with early palliative care (started soon after diagnosis) to see which is better for improving the experience of patients and families with advanced lung and non-colorectal GI cancer. The study will use questionnaires to measure patients' and caregivers' quality of life, mood, coping and understanding of their illness.
The purpose of this research study is to assess what the participant understands about their illness, prognosis, the goals of the cancer treatment and their communication with their oncology providers. This study will help us to figure out how the investigators can improve how other patients understand their illness and goals of treatment and help us improve communication with their doctors. This research is being done because there is not a lot of information on how much patients understand about their illness and prognosis.
Evaluation of safety and efficacy of a standardized mistletoe extract (abnobaVISCUM® Quercus, aVQ) in patients with gastric cancer receiving oral chemotherapy.
This open-label, single-arm, multicenter, Phase 2 trial will treat at least 40 participants with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma including adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) who have not previously received systemic chemotherapy for this setting. All eligible participants will receive the combination of cetuximab plus S-1 (a combination of tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil) and cisplatin.
Because locally far-advanced gastric cancer combined with adjacent tissue invasion has a poor prognosis, some phase 2 and 3 clinical trials of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) are performed in Japan. However, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) achieves superior local tumor control compared with NAC. This feasibility trial explored the feasibility and safety of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) in this type of gastric cancer.
The aims of this study are to investigate whether multimodal treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer is feasible and to evaluate the clinical outcomes and clinical effectiveness of neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery + hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy + early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy, as compared to systemic chemotherapy only, in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer.
This study is to investigate the effect of gastrectomy on remission of type 2 diabetes in patients with gastric cancer and type 2 diabetes, to investigate the mechanism of blood glucose alteration and intestinal hormonal signaling by the reconstruction methods, and to evaluate the applicability and efficacy of Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy after gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients with diabetes.
We grafted the concept of metabolic surgery (long limb Roux-en Y reconstruction) into gastric cancer surgery. This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of long limb Roux-en Y reconstruction after gastrectomy in non-obese type II diabetes with gastric cancer.
The study aims to: 1. Achieve molecular imaging of MG7 antigen in patients with gastric cancer in vivo using confocal laser endomicroscopy. 2. Compare the results of in vivo MG7-specific molecular imaging with CLE and ex vivo immunohistochemistry .
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Cabazitaxel, as well as safety and side effects for patients with advanced gastroesophageal cancer
