Filter by:The majority of patients with newly diagnosed metastatic ESCC and gastric cancer patients experience a number of physical and psychosocial symptoms related to their cancer. Those patients endure the greatest level of distress from their disease relative to other cancer populations in China. Although new drugs have been applied in recent years, the median overall survival time of metastatic ESCC and GC patients are still around 12 months. Therefore, it is essential to maximize their quality of life (QOL) from the time of diagnosis. Multiple studies demonstrate that symptoms such as pain, fatigue, and anorexia are prevalent at diagnosis and worsen over time. As a result, suffering increases throughout the course of the illness. To be most effective, palliative care with intensive symptom management and psychosocial support should begin at the time of diagnosis, not once life-prolonging therapies have failed. And some studies have revealed that early palliative can even prolong the overall survival time in advanced lung cancer. The investigators then initiated a randomized phase III clinical trial with standard oncology care plus early palliative care or not in metastatic esophageal carcinoma and gastric cancer to observe whether the early palliative can improve the QOL and even prolong the overall survival time in those patients
HIPEC-01 is a prospective, open, randomized multicenter phase III clinical study conducted in China. To determine the efficacy of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer, patients are randomized into HIPEC group and control group. In HIPEC group, the patients undergo radical gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy and HIPEC with paclitaxel and postoperative chemotherapy. Patients in the control group just undergo radical gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy followed by postoperative chemotherapy. Patients in both groups receive 6-8 cycles of postoperative systemic chemotherapy (XELOX or SOX regimens) and are followed up for 5 years or until death.
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose(MTD)/Recommended Phase 2 Dose(RP2D) and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GC1118 when given by intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with stage IV solid tumors. The study will also evaluate pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and antitumor effect of GC1118 and explore prognostic biomarkers and pharmacodynamic biomarkers.
The main purpose of this research is to verify the safety of CEA targeted chimeric antigen receptor T cells and to determine the proper dosage of CAR T cells infused.
This is a Phase I, open label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of INO-1400 alone or in combination with INO-9012, delivered by electroporation in subjects with high risk breast, lung, or pancreatic cancer with no evidence of disease after surgery and adjuvant therapy. Subjects will be enrolled into one of six treatment arms. Subjects will be assessed according to standard of care. Restaging and imaging studies will be performed to assess disease relapse per NCCN guidelines. RECIST will be used to validate the findings in cases of relapse.
Gastric cancer represents a great challenge for health care providers and requires a multidisciplinary context in which surgery plays a main role. Minimally invasive surgery has been progressively developed, first with the advent of laparoscopy and more recently with the spread of robotic systems, but a number of issues are currently being debated, including the limitations in performing effective extended lymph node dissections and, in this context, the real advantages of using the robotic systems, the possible role for the Advanced Gastric Cancer, the reproducibility of completely intracorporeal techniques and the oncological results achievable during follow-up. A multicenter study with a large number of patients is now needed to further investigate the safety and efficacy as well as long-term outcomes of robotic surgery, traditional laparoscopy and the open approach.
The robot-assisted surgery allows three-dimensional view, detailed access of small structures, depth perception and articulated movements with wide latitude. Thinking about the inclusion of this branch of surgical outcome ICESP encouraged the training of their doctors and other health professionals , and has three tutors in the area of robot- assisted laparoscopic surgery , and various medical clinical staff , already trained , and already perform the procedure in other centers . The da Vinci ® Surgical System ( only existing in the World market) , consisting of one or two consoles for the surgeon and a tutor if necessary was adopted. Ergonomically designed, a stand next to the patient , with four interactive robotic arms , one of them , a vision system for high performance and the other three for exclusive EndoWrist ® instruments . Driven by the latest robotic technology , computer programs , frictionless transmission of manual controls , movements in scale and filtered made by the surgeon in the da Vinci ® System console are translated into precise movements of the instruments EndoWrist ® For surgeons , the da Vinci ® System offers superior 3D viewing with larger surgical precision ergonomic comfort and dexterity . For hospitals , the da Vinci ® Surgical System enables clinical and economic benefits of minimally invasive surgery are applied to a broader base of patients cirúrgicos.The main objective is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of robotic surgery in the surgical treatment of cancer in operations below, as their specialties : Digestive , Urology , Gynecology , Head and Neck and Thorax . This is a prospective study lasting 36 months , where 1120 patients with surgical diseases in programming for the following operations will be studied : transthoracic esophagectomy ; subtotal gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy ; partial pancreatectomy ; resection of the rectum ; prostatectomy ; cystectomy ; partial nephrectomy ; hysterectomy with or without pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy ; resection of malignant tumors of the mouth and orofaringolaringe and lung lobectomy . Patients will come from the outpatient services of the Institute of Cancer of São Paulo - ICESP
This trial is going to evaluate the advantage of D2 radical gastrectomy plus 14v lymph node dissection in 3-year survival rates of advanced gastric cancers.
The objective of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of trastuzumab plus XELOX for treatment of HER2-positive Stage III Gastric Cancer After D2 Gastrectomy.
Purpose: This aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with the modified FOLFOX6(mFOLFOX6) regimen and its impact on survival on a series in local advanced gastric cancer patients. Patients and methods: The study is a prospective non-randomized study. Patients with histopathologically confirmed and locally advanced gastric cancer(T2-T4 or N+) are enrolled in the study. Patients are given mFOLFOX6 scheme for 3 cycles.A radical gastrectomy and a D2 lymphadenectomy was will be scheduled 3-6 weeks after the completion of the preoperative chemotherapy. Down-staging is assessed comparing pretreatment clinical staging with postoperative pathologic staging on patients who underwent radical surgery. Tumor down-staging and the grade of pathologic response are included in a statistical correlation between tumor regression induced by mFOLFOX6 neoadjuvant chemotherapy and survival.The primary endpoint is 3-year overall survival, secondary endpoints are disease-free survival, R0 resection rate, toxicity and prediction of response.
