Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects, good and/or bad, of the drug regorafenib with chemotherapy regime (FOLFOX). This is a a Phase II trial that will study if this new treatment is effective and safe in patients with esophagus and stomach cancer.
Phase II study of cetuximab, paclitaxel, carboplatin and radiation for esophageal cancer.
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy of ipatasertib in combination with oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin (modified FOLFOX6 [mFOLFOX6]) chemotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. Participants will be randomized to receive either ipatasertib or placebo orally daily on Days 1 to 7 of each 14-day cycle in combination with mFOLFOX6 on Day 1 of each cycle.
The aim of the present study was to propose a new pCLE classification of gastric pit patterns and vessel architecture, and to assess the accuracy and interobserver agreement of this new pCLE classification system in the stomach.
Study design: Multicenter, randomized, open label phase II study Arm A: DOX 4 cycles - Surgery - Follow-up Arm B: DOX 2 cycles - Surgery - DOX 2 cycles - Follow-up Population: Male or female, 18-75 years of age, with a diagnosis of histologically confirmed, potentially resectable adenocarcinoma of the stomach. Sample Size: Planned sample size is 90 patients, 45 patients for each arm (p0=50%, p1=80%, alpha=0.05 (two sides), beta=0.2) Treatment Plan: Treatment will be administered for 4 and 2 cycles before surgery in arm A and B, respectively, and in arm B for a further 2 cycles after surgery unless progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs, or a patient refuses treatment. In such cases patients will go off treatment. 3-6 weeks after the end of the fourth (arm A) or second (arm B) preoperative cycle, patients will undergo surgery. After surgery 3-6 weeks from surgery patients in arm B will receive 2 more cycles. DOX: Docetaxel 35 mg/m2 day 1 and 8 Oxaliplatin 80 mg/m2 day 1 Capecitabine 750 mg/m2 x 2 daily for 2 weeks Cycles repeated every 3 weeks Evaluation criteria: Tumor assessment will be performed according to the RECIST criteria (version 1.1). Duration of Study: Overall study duration: 07/2010- 03/2017 Planned study duration per patient: 5 years
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of LY2875358 in participants with MET diagnostic positive (+), advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer.
The use of epidural dexmedetomidine decreases the anaesthetic requirements and improved postoperative pain. Dexmedetomidine is a potent and highly selective a2-adrenoceptor agonist and has sympatholytic effect. Power spectral analysis of heart rate variability(HRV) is a useful tool to assess cardiac autonomic activity. We investigated whether preemptive epidural dexmedetomidine can develop hemodynamic change and it could be identify patients by HRV.
A prospective series of patients with recurrent gastric cancer will be treated with three cycles of chemotherapy (doxorubicin and cisplatin) instilled into the abdominal cavity in the form of an aerosol under pressure via laparoscopy. The efficacy of this treatment will be assessed by computed tomography, tumor marker studies, and survival. Also, the safety of the procedure will be assessed.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of two nutrition screening tools to identify inpatients with malnutrition or at risk of malnutrition. The two tools are the Royal Marsden Abridged Adult Nutrition Screening Tool (AANST) and the Malnutrition Screening Tool (MST)[10] The tools will be compared with the currently accepted gold standard, Patient Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA). Both screening tools are in the form of scored questionnaires and are suitable for electronic input. The ultimate objective is to select an adult inpatient nutrition screening tool with the highest sensitivity for future use in the oncology inpatient setting in order to allow prompt commencement of an appropriate nutrition care plan.
This prospective, multi-center, non-interventional study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab in routine clinical practice in Chinese participants with gastric or gastro-oesophageal cancer. The study will be conducted in 5 cohorts and eligible participants will be enrolled and assigned to the various cohorts according to human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status, disease stage and treatment with trastuzumab according to physician's decision. Treatment patterns and clinical outcomes in participants with gastric cancer in China will be evaluated. The total study duration is 60 months.
