Filter by:The purpose of this research is to understand if it is helpful for patients with mental illness to be connected to a psychiatrist and case manager at the time of cancer diagnosis.
The primary objective of the phase 1 portion of this study is to determine the recommended dose of bemarituzumab in combination with 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin and oxaliplatin (modified FOLFOX6) to use in the phase 2 portion of the trial.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of liposomal irinotecan and rucaparib when given together with fluorouracil and leucovorin calcium and to see how well they work in treating patients with pancreatic, colorectal, gastroesophageal, or biliary cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as liposomal irinotecan, fluorouracil, and leucovorin calcium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as rucaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Giving liposomal irinotecan and rucaparib together with fluorouracil and leucovorin calcium may work better in treating patients with pancreatic, colorectal, gastroesophageal, or biliary cancer.
This research study is evaluating the ability for people with metastatic gastrointestinal cancer to participate in a physical activity program.
The clinical trail of electroacupuncture combined with oxaliplatin regimen on gastrointestinal carcinoma.This trail is randomized controled.Patients are diagnosed gastrointestinal cancer based on pathology or cell biology.They are randomized into 2 groups:both groups receive Oxaliplatin regimen.The treatment group receives electroacupuncture in addition to the chemotherapy.The control group only receive the same chemotherapy with the treatment group.Both group have the same adjuvant therapy.
The primary purpose of this trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of DS-8201a and physician's choice treatment in HER2-overexpressing advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma patients who have progressed on two prior treatment regimens including fluoropyrimidine agent, platinum agent, and trastuzumab.
The aim of the investigators' study is to evaluate the mucosa-elevating capacity and clinical safety of Sodium Alginate (SA) mixed with Calcium Lactate in assisting Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection/Endoscopic Mucosal Resection.
General anesthesia often reduces blood pressure whereby blood flow to the brain and other vital organs may become insufficient. Thus, medicine is often administered to maintain blood pressure but it is unclear at what level blood pressure should be aimed at during anesthesia. Thirty patients undergoing major abdominal surgery will be included. The study will start one hour after the start of surgery and lasts for approximately half an hour. The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether blood flow to the brain can be increased by maintaining blood pressure at a higher level than that used in clinical practice. In the study, MAP is adjusted to a high, moderate, and low level for a short time. The low level of blood pressure used in the study, corresponds to the level aimed at in clinical practice. The drug noradrenaline will be used to control blood pressure. Blood flow to the brain will be evaluated on the neck using ultrasound.
The aim of this study is to test whether a short educational intervention about emotional skills can improve survivor cancer patient emotional skills and quality of life. Half of participants will follow the educational intervention about emotional skills, while the other half will practice relaxation followed by a non-directive talking group. The educational intervention should give better results on patient emotional skills and quality of life than the control group.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the non-inferiority of overall survival FOLFIRI with or without Bevacizumab compared with Irinotecan (CPT-11) with or without Bevacizumab as Second-line therapy in Patient with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.
