Filter by:It is a trial to compare the efficacy and safety of Albumin-bound Paclitaxel plus S-1 versus Oxaliplatin plus S-1 (SOX) as first-line treatment in advanced or recurrent gastric adenocarcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of combination therapy with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) and lenvatinib (E7080/MK-7902) in participants with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer (CRC), glioblastoma (GBM), biliary tract cancers (BTC), or pancreatic cancer.
Gastric cancer is a global health threat. Helicobacter pylori is now recognized as the main risk factor that initiates this process; hence, H. pylori eradication has been considered the most effective method to ameliorate the burden of gastric cancer. Serum pepsinogen levels reveal the current atrophy of the stomach and predict gastric cancer risk. A risk prediction model with the combination of H. pylori infection and serum pepsinogen level could identify the highest-risk gastric cancer patients. Colorectal cancers (CRC) rank second and third as the leading causes of cancer-related death in men and women, respectively. For CRC prevention, a two-stage approach using the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) is popular; besides, the FIT levels may serve as a guide for priority setting in prompting residents to undergo colonoscopy. Therefore, the effectiveness and utility of aggressive referral confirmatory diagnosis protocol in a colorectal cancer screening program for those with high FIT levels urgently need to evaluate.
The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of pneumoperitoneum on remifentanil requirements in the surgical pleth index-guided analgesia for laparoscopic gastrectomy.
Prospective single arm, single center observational study to assess the nutritional status and the nutrient supply during hospitalization for elective gastrointestinal surgery.
Progastrin is a pro-hormone that, in physiological conditions, is maturated in gastrin in G cells of the stomach. The role of the gastrin is to stimulate the secretion of gastric acids during digestion. It is also important for the regulation of cell growth of the gastric mucosal. In a healthy person, progastrin is not detectable in the peripheral blood. However, progastrin is abnormally released in the blood of patients with different cancers (colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, cervix uterus, melanoma…) The gene GAST coding for progastrin is a direct target gene of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway. The activation of this oncogenic pathway is an early event in cancer development. Chronic activation of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway occurs in almost all human solid tumors and is a central mechanism in cancer biology that induces cellular proliferation, blocking of differentiation leading to primary tumor growth and metastasis formation. Progastrin measured in the peripheral blood of patients on treatments, could be a new powerful marker for diagnosis and prognosis at different stages.
The primary hypothesis is that cancer vaccine can convert non-immunogenic gastric cancer into immunogenic phenotype susceptible to PD1 inhibition. This would lead to an improved radiological response rate and favorable immune contexture for immune checkpoint blockade
To investigate the diagnostic accuracy of procalcitonin as an early predictor of infection after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
D2 gastrectomy is standard treatment of early gastric cancer in Japan but in other countries there is still some discord, especially in Europe and North America. Although the quantity of metastasis cancer in lymph node defines survival regardless of which country the patient is treated, the total number of lymph nodes harvested is an important factor to predict accurate staging and/or D2 gastrectomy. Both of the number total lymph nodes and the metastasis lymph node status in gastric cancer are important factors to decide each prognosis. This study evaluated the correlation between total lymph nodes retrieved and metastasis node by lymph node ratio (LNR) status to determine the recurrence rate after curative resection of gastric
Gastric cancer is most frequent after the fifth decade of life. Surgical risk is higher in aged population because of general health condition may affect the postoperative result. Aim of the study was to identify risk factors for post-operative mortality in octogenarian patients who underwent surgery for gastric cancer.
