Filter by:This single arm study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a non-surgical approach, consisting of radiotherapy (RT) alone, for patients who have achieved a complete pathological response (pCR) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). The study design involves the histological confirmation of pCR using vacuum-assisted biopsy (VABB) or vacuum-assisted excision (VAE) guided by ultrasound. The primary objective is to demonstrate that the non-surgical, RT-only treatment and follow-up approach is not inferior to the traditional surgical approach in patients with pCR after NACT.
The purpose of this study is to compare a special type of mammogram that uses a contrast agent called contrast-enhanced digital mammography with contrast-enhanced digital breast tomosynthesis (CEDM+CEDBT), with breast magnetic resonance imaging imaging (MRI) for predicting the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on pathologic complete response rates. The device used to obtain CEDM+CEDBT images is called Siemens MAMMOMAT. This device produces two-dimensional (2D) images, as in a normal mammogram, but also collects additional images for digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), which produces a three-dimensional (3D) image of the breast in the form of image slices. DBT allows the radiologist to "see through" the breast tissue for better detection and localization of breast cancer. By looking at both the CEDM images and the CEDBT images, a radiologist may be able to better detect residual breast cancer in a more cost-effective manner. Participation may last up to 18 weeks. Study procedures for this research are: - Undergoing 1-2 mammograms during and/or after your chemotherapy, but before primary breast surgery. - Before each mammogram, have a radiology technician inject a liquid contrast agent by inserting a needle into a vein. The chemotherapy port cannot be used to receive the contrast agent - Let the research team record information from your medical record related to your condition and the treatment you receive. - Give permission to collect leftover tissue from your diagnostic biopsy and breast surgery.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of irinotecan liposomes with oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) / leucovorin (LV) with or without adelizumab for resectable pancreatic cancer by assessing the 12-month EFS rate
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. Patients with breast cancer are often diagnosed at later stages and have a strong desire for breast conservation, necessitating neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Tumors of different molecular subtypes and individual variations among patients lead to significant differences in treatment efficacy. Precise assessment of patients' responses to treatment regimens is imperative in advancing prognosis of breast cancer. In this study, 58 patients diagnosed with breast cancer and scheduled for neoadjuvant therapy will be recruited. Patient-derived organoids from their tumor biopsies will be utilized to evaluate the sensitivity of chemotherapy regimen. These drugs primarily include Doxorubicin, Carboplatin, Cyclophosphamide, Paclitaxel, as well as targeted therapies such as Herceptin and Pertuzumab.
The investigators aimed to accurately measure muscle mass and predict pCR to NAC and its effect on clinical outcomes.
This study aims to investigate the significance of minimal residual axillary disease following NAC, with a particular focus on micrometastases (ypNmi), in comparison to pathologic lymph node-negative (ypN0) or macrometastases (ypN+). The investigators will further explore the prognostic implications of SLNmi for the prediction of axillary LN status and survival outcomes.
A validated prognostic index for the outcome of advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is still lacking. To address this need, we developed an ovarian neoadjuvant chemotherapy prognostic index (ONCPI) to improve predictive accuracy. We analyzed the clinicopathological characteristics of advanced HGSOC patients receiving platinum-based NACT. Blood inflammatory composite markers were calculated and binary-transformed using optimal cutoffs. Omental hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained slides were selected for the assessment of chemotherapy response score (CRS). Logistic regression analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression model were utilized to develop a prognostic index.
It analyzes the Tumor microenvironment(TME) changes in non pathologic complete response(pCR) subjects among subjects who were administered neoadjuvant pembrolizumab and those who were not administered neoadjuvant pembrolizumab for triple negative breast cancer. (Neoadjuvant Weekly paclitaxel, Carboplatin +- Pembrolizumab followed by Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide +- Pembrolizumab regimen)
Background: Surgery can significantly improve the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer. However, some patients are at a later stage at diagnosis and need to receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Previous studies have shown that NACT may lead to more postoperative complications. Probiotics have the potential to reduce postoperative complications and infections, but no large sample, multicentre, randomized clinical trials have been conducted in patients with gastric cancer receiving NACT. The aim of this multicentre randomized controlled trial was to investigate the effect of probiotics on postoperative infections and other short-term outcomes in patients with gastric cancer receiving NACT. Methods/design: This study is a prospective, multicentre RCT. This experiment will consist of two groups - an experimental group and a control group - randomly divided in a 1:1 ratio. The experimental group will receive perioperative probiotic supplement and that of the control group will receive blank control management. An estimated 318 patients will be enrolled. The main endpoint for comparison is postoperative infections between the two groups.The experimental group patients received probiotic capsules containing Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Enterococcus faecalis.
The early noninvasive screening of patients suitable for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT) is essential for personalized treatment in locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC). The aim of this study was to develop and visualized a radio-clinical biomarker from pretreatment oversampled CT images to predict the response and prognosis to NCT in LAGC patients.
