Filter by:The purpose of this study is to look at whether F-18 Fluciclovine (i.e. Axumin) is better or as good as F-18 Sodium Fluoride (F-18 NaF) when looking at bone disease from prostate cancer. Axumin is a radioactive agent used on a positron/computed tomography (PET/CT) camera to look for prostate cancer in general.
Multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled trial based on a mixed-method methodology using parallel groups, of oral mirtazapine (intervention) compared with oral escitalopram (control), with a 56 days follow-up. Improvement of the Global health Status (issued from the EORTC-QLQ-C30 (Quality of Life Questionnaire)) will be used as the primary outcome on day 56. Semi-structures interviews will be performed on a purposive sample for qualitative analysis. The 418 participants will be followed-up at day 7, 14, 28 and 56 for a 56 days period. A sub-group of participants will be invited to take part into qualitative interviews at baseline and day 56. Recruitment of participants to the qualitative part will be based on a purposive sampling.
This is a prospective, randomized, 2-arm, Phrase 2, superiority and multicenter study to compare the efficiency of Anti-HER2 TKI versus Pertuzumab in Combination With Dose-dense Trastuzumab and Taxane in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with active refractory brain metastases.
This study assesses the feasibility of SGM-101, a fluorochrome-labeled anti-carcinoembryonic antigen monoclonal antibody, for intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence imaging of colorectal brain metastases by injecting SGM-101 intravenously 3 - 5 days prior to surgery.
The therapeutic regimens of adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC) remain largely relied on clinical experience, and thus preclinical models are needed to guide individualized medicine. The investigators are going to establish 3D bioprinted CRC models and organoids from surgically resected tumor tissues of CRC patients with or without liver metastases. In vitro 3D models and organoids will be treated with the same chemotherapy drugs with the corresponding patients from whom the models are derived. The sensitivity of chemotherapy drugs will be tested in these two types of in vitro models, and the actual response to chemotherapy in patients will be evaluated. The predictive ability of 3D models for chemotherapy sensitivity in CRC patients will be compared with that of the organoids. This observational study will validate the potential value of 3D bioprinted tumor models in predicting the response to chemotherapy in CRC.
This is a prospective, open-label, randomized controlled clinical trial, by monitoring the serum ctDNA mutational profile using NGS, aiming to elucidate the correlation between the postoperative ctDNA status and the assisted diagnosis, early intervention and prognosis for colorectal cancer peritoneal metastases.
Surgery is a primary treatment modality in the intended curative treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). However, surgery elicits a cascade of potentially detrimental stress responses that may drive the onset of long-term disease progression. Exercise training is emerging as an adjunct treatment in surgical oncology and holds potential to modify the surgical stress response. Against this background, we designed the present randomized controlled trial to evaluate the therapeutic role of pre- and postoperative exercise training in patients with CRLM undergoing open liver resection.
The investigators collected the data from the investigators' center between January 2011 and October 2020. The study included all non-small cell lung cancer patients with surgically excised brain metastasis. The investigators analysis the correlation of gene mutation and the disease course.
Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has prolonged the survival substantially for selected patients with peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer.Bleeding and thromboembolic disease have been reported as postoperative complications related to this advanced open surgical treatment. However, perioperative changes in coagulation and fibrinolysis are only sparsely reported in the literature.The mainstay of treatment with curative intend of none-advanced colorectal cancer is minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. The approach is considered associated with a lower risk of thromboembolic disease than open surgery. Despite differences in extent of surgery and thromboembolic risk the same extended thromboprophylaxis regimen for 28 days is currently prescribed to patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC as well as minimally invasive rectal cancer resection. This study aims to investigate all parts of the coagulation system and fibrinolysis, and thereby thromboembolic risk and potential bleeding in two groups of patients with different extent of surgical trauma: 1) Colorectal cancer patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC and 2) rectal cancer patients undergoing minimal invasive rectal cancer resection. Our hypothesis is that patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC are exposed to more aggravated alterations of coagulation and fibrinolysis than patients undergoing minimally invasive rectal cancer resection.
This is a single-arm, single institution pilot registry of liver transplantation in patients with unresectable colorectal liver-only metastases at Weill Cornell Medical College. Patients with liver predominant colorectal liver metastases will be screened based on eligibility criteria in a specified clinical hepatobiliary and colorectal liver metastasis tumor board consisting of the principal and co-investigators, representing medical oncology, transplant surgery, radiology, and pathology. The registry aims to track basic demographic data as well as referral patterns, in addition to specific oncologic data such as tumor burden, extent of disease, extent of disease on explant, recurrence rates, patterns of recurrence and survival rates.
