Filter by:The goal of this interventional pilot trial is to confirm that Maastro endoluminal HDR ( High Dose Radiation) contact brachytherapy boosting is feasible and may increase the chance of functional organ sparing of the rectum in patients with rectal cancer. Participants will be treated with chemoradiotherapy and an endoluminal boost with the Maastro applicator.
A prospective single-center observational study to evaluate the effectiveness of a local treatment with a mixture of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate and poloxamer 407 in patients with radiation-induced proctitis.
Radiation proctitis is a common complication after radiation therapy for pelvic tumors. The investigators found that live bifidobacterium and lactobacillus tablets combined with compound glutamine enteric-coated capsules can significantly relieve the symptoms of radiation proctitis through preliminary clinical practice, but the mechanism is unknown. Through a prospective randomized controlled study, this study intends to investigate the incidence of grade 2 or higher acute radiation proctitis in patients of locally advanced rectal cancer after radiotherapy with the combined therapy. And through various scales, next-generation sequencing methods and other methods to evaluate the clinical symptoms, colonoscopy, imaging, and changes in the species and abundance of intestinal flora before and after treatment. To further explore the related pathways and mechanisms affecting radiation proctitis.
In this study, investigators utilize a Artificial Intelligence (AI) supportive system to predict radiation proctitis for patients with pelvic cancers underwent radiotherapy. By the system, whether the participants achieve the radiation proctitis will be identified based on the radiomics features extracted from the post radiotherapy Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) . The predictive power to discriminate the radiation proctitis individuals from non-radiation proctitis patients, will be validated in this multicenter, prospective clinical study.
Chronic radiation proctitis (CRP) is the main secondary toxic injury after pelvic radiotherapy. Hematochezia is the most common symptom for more than 80% of CRP patients. Non-surgical treatment is the first choice to the treatment of CRP to avoid the occurrence of serious complications. Conventional oral medication for the treatment of bleeding CRP is very few and has little effect. At present, no oral medication has been found to significantly alleviate and control refractory bleeding of CRP. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to screen out a drug that is more effective, safe and highly compliant for the treatment of hemorrhagic CRP. Thalidomide has anti-inflammatory, immune regulation, anti-angiogenesis and other effects. For the patients of CRP with intractable bleeding, a prospective, open clinical trial will be carried out to observe the safety and effectiveness of thalidomide in treating hemorrhagic CRP.
A randomized, multi-center, double-blind, three arm placebo-controlled study in male and non-pregnant, non-lactating female subjects aged 18 years to examine the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of hydrocortisone acetate 90 mg suppository administered with the Sephure applicator for the treatment of ulcerative colitis of the rectum.
national and multi-center trial for medical therapy of chronic radiation proctitis inducing anorectal bleedings
This will be a phase I/IIa, open-label, three-stage, single center study aimed at investigating the safety, the efficacy (clinical and endoscopic effects) and the pharmacokinetics of Niclosamide enema 150 mg/60 ml and 450 mg/60 ml in subjects with mild-to-moderate UP and UPS, defined as a Modified Mayo Score (MMS) ≥ 4 and < 8, with a stool frequency subscore (SFS) ≥ 1, a rectal bleeding sub-score (RBS) = 1 or 2, and an endoscopic subscore (mucosal appearance) = 1 or 2. At the endoscopic sub-score any degree of friability will be classified as having a sub-scale score of 2.
Refractory rectal bleeding of chronic radiation proctitis (CRP) is still problematic and does not respond to medical treatments including reagents, endoscopic argon plasma coagulation (APC) or topical formalin. We proposed this prospective cohort study, to assess the efficacy and safety of colostomy in treating refractory hemorrhagic CRP with moderate to severe anemia, to provide higher-quality evidence of colostomy in these patients.
1. To prove that patients with ulcerative proctitis and proctosigmoiditis have impaired autonomic functions, i.e. increased sympathetic activity and/or reduced vagal tone. 2. To demonstrate inflammatory cytokine imbalance, i.e., increased pro-inflammatory cytokines. Presence of these abnormalities would make patients with ulcerative proctitis and proctosigmoiditis good candidates for future sacral nerve stimulation therapy.
