Filter by:This is a single-arm, interventional study aimed to observe the efficacy and safety of Apatinib combined with S-1 for patients with advanced gastric cancer refractory to oxaliplatin plus capecitabine combination therapy
This study uses magnetic anchored guidance system to treat early gastric cancer by endoscopic mucosal dissection to test the advantages of magnetically anchored guidance system for surgical field exposure during endoscopic mucosal dissection.
A randomized control trial to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a patient educational platform (PEP) for patients with gastrointestinal malignancies undergoing active chemotherapy treatment.
Stomach cancer is the fifth most common digestive cancer and third main cause of death from cancer in the world. Modern management of Gastric cancer involves a multi-disciplinary approach involving surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, gastroenterologists and oncological radiologists. The most common clinical approach to Gastric adenocarcinoma is to begin with staging, which usually involves CT scan/ MRI combined with endoscopic US for more accurate T, N staging. Once the patient is deemed to have locally advanced gastric cancer (T3/T4,N0/+), a staging laparoscopy is recommended to rule out obvious or microscopic peritoneal metastatic disease. Additionally, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is initiated and followed by surgery +/- adjuvant radiation and chemotherapy.This protocol involves the addition of neoadjuvant HIPEC at the time of diagnostic laparoscopy as well as neoadjuvant radiation therapy for improved local and systemic control. The goal of this phase II clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-modality approach to treating patients with locally advanced Gastric cancer by incorporating diagnostic laparoscopy with HIPEC, neo-adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy, followed by surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy. The trial aims to assess this multi-modality approach in inducing pathological complete response; decreased rates of disease progression during neoadjuvant therapy; and increased overall, disease-free, and peritoneal disease-free survival.

Venous Thromboembolic Events (ETVs) are the second leading cause of death (9.2% of causes of death) in cancer patients after tumor progression (1). Indeed, cancer is associated with a 4 to 7-fold risk of ETV during chemotherapy (2). This complication is observed in 20% of cancer patients (3), and is sometimes an inaugural manifestation of cancer. This risk is particularly increased during the first 3 months after cancer diagnosis (4). A biomarker correlated with the occurrence of ETVs would make it possible to target patients at high risk of thrombosis who could benefit from primary thromboprophylaxis, thus avoiding the complications, particularly haemorrhagic, and the additional costs associated with the long-term diagnostic and therapeutic management of ETVs. The investigator has implemented in the laboratory an innovative approach to the detection and quantification of circulating NETs by flow cytometry (FCM) allowing the routine determination of NETs. Therefore the investigator propose to assess NETs by CMF in a cohort of cancer patients with a very high risk of ETVs (pancreatic cancer, gastric cancer and colon cancer).
Anastomotic leak after radical gastrectomy is a serious complication. Intraoperative leak testing was often used to assess the integrity of the anastomosis. However, the reliability, clinical benefits and safety of intraoperative leak testing are controversial. Our aim is to evaluate the effect and safety of intraoperative leak testing, and to compare the surgical complications of patients in intraoperative leak testing group with patients in non-intraoperative leak testing group.
The placement of an abdominal drain consists one of the most controversial issues not only after gastrectomy, but also after any abdominal operation in general. During the past decades drains have been widely used after major abdominal operations. Nevertheless, following the latest perioperative management trends, not all surgeons seem to embrace the idea. There are still many new studies or in progress, mainly in the East, examining the prognostic value of the drain content after a gastrectomy. Thus, the use of a drain is still under question. The aim of the present study is to evaluate whether the placement of a perianastomotic drain after total gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy contributes to the early diagnosis of intraabdominal complications such as bleeding, abscess, anastomotic leak or pancreatic fistula. The participants will be patients with pathologically confirmed gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer, and will undergo total gastrectomy plus D2 lymph node dissection and Roux-en-Y gastrointestinal tract reconstruction.
Retrospective evaluation on a prospective cohort of patients undergoing curative gastric cancer resection to evaluate the impact of a patient blood management (PBM) program on transfusion rate and clinical outcomes. The study aims to compare transfusion practices and clinical outcomes of patients undergoing elective gastric cancer resection before and after implementing a PBM program, which included strategies to detect and treat preoperative anemia and restrictive transfusion practice (2014-2018). Primary outcome is transfusion rate (TR). Secondary outcomes are transfusion index (TI), postoperative complications, length of stay, 30-day readmissions, and 90-day mortality. Adherence to protocol is also analyzed. Differences of variables before and after PBM program implementation are evaluated with mean comparing analysis adjusted by confounding factors.
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial to compare Billroth II reconstruction versus conventional Roux-en-Y reconstruction versus long limb Roux-en-Y reconstruction for glycemic control in patients with concurrent type 2 diabetes and gastric cancer.
