Filter by:Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide and is responsible for an estimated 9.6 million deaths yearly. Cancer-related deaths can be reduced if patients are diagnosed and treated early. Delay in cancer diagnosis can occur at any point along the diagnostic spectrum, from the first observation of symptoms to the start of treatment. Diagnosing cancer when it is still at an early stage, before it has spread, gives surgery, radiotherapy and other treatments the best chance of working. Therefore, early diagnosis is the most important way to improve cancer outcomes. Most of the cancers usually presents with vague and non-alarming symptoms. Most individuals are diagnosed late when the cancer has already spread, and the prognosis is poor. There are over 200 different types of cancer that can cause many different signs and symptoms. Sometimes symptoms affect specific body areas, such as abdomen or skin. But signs can also be more general, and include weight loss, tiredness (fatigue) or unexplained pain. The type of symptoms varies from person to person. The major reasons for not presenting to the GP with symptoms such as these are "not wanting to waste the GP's time" and normalisation of these symptoms. The persistence of a symptom, social influence and awareness encourage help-seeking behaviours in primary care. However, few believe their symptom(s) might be a sign of cancer. Consequently, people might choose to self-manage their symptoms by using over-the-counter medication, and to seek advice from other sources, (pharmacists, family, internet), rather than a primary care physician. RATIONALE FOR CURRENT STUDY An early cancer diagnosis is essential for receiving treatment as early as possible to have the best chance for successful treatment. Early diagnosis of cancer can be challenging. Sometimes, the cancer symptoms resemble common illnesses and could resolve with the use of over-the-counter medications and other remedies until they become persistent or debilitating. The present study focuses on ten cancer forms: colon, oesophageal, stomach, liver, bladder, uterine, vulval, ovarian, endometrial and pancreatic. Patients diagnosed with the cancers mentioned above often report experiencing vague symptoms (such as abdominal or back pain, indigestion, feeling full etc). They often use over-the-counter medication to manage their symptoms before seeing a doctor. Information about how often and what products participants purchase (e.g. pain killers, digestive products and natural remedies) to care for these symptoms could help identify these cancers a few crucial weeks or months earlier and encourage people to seek help sooner from their doctors.
This study is a single-center, single-arm, open-label, phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Paclitaxel Polymeric Micelles for Injection for the treatment of patients with advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, lung cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal carcinoma, or breast cancer that are resistant to Taxanes. Subjects are given paclitaxel polymeric micelles for injection, three weeks constitutes one cycle of treatment. If subject does not develop disease progression , the subject continues treatment until disease progression (RECIST 1.1) or develops an intolerable toxicity, initiation of a new anti-cancer drug, withdrawal from the study, death, or loss of follow-up. This is a single-arm, small-sample clinical study with the primary efficacy goal of objective remission rate (ORR). The parameters of the trial were set: assuming a class I error of 0.025 unilaterally, power=90%, and a 15% improvement in ORR for objective remission rate, a total of 20 subjects would be required, and a total of 25 would be required for enrolment, taking into account a 20% shedding.
The main goal of this study is to investigate the histopathological regression rate in patients with locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma without previous treatment who will be prospectively randomized into two groups to undergo one of two chemotherapy regimens, followed by surgery: 1. 8 cycles of Total Neoadjuvant ChemoTherapy (TNT) with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), Leucovorin, Oxaliplatin and Docetaxel (FLOT) followed by surgery. 2. 4 cycles of Neoadjuvant FLOT chemotherapy scheme preoperatively and 4 adjuvant FLOT cycles postoperatively.
The objective of this Study is to collect, process, and transfer biologic samples such as blood and/or tissue biopsies to determine the concordance of detected alterations obtained through liquid biopsy analyses compared to next generation sequencing of time-matched or archival tissue specimens from individuals with advanced solid tumors. Examples of locally advanced and metastatic tumors include stage III and IV cancers (ex. lung, breast, all gastrointestinal malignancies, all gynecologic malignancies, prostate cancer, head and neck tumors, soft tissue cancers, and melanoma). These specimens will be analyzed for diagnostic purposes and research (either by Labcorp/OmniSeq or to a third-party recipient designated by Labcorp/OmniSeq). Labcorp/OmniSeq may transfer the specimens and data to its clients, including commercial, academic or non-profit research institutions; or alternatively, may retain the specimens in its repository for future research use at the sole discretion of Labcorp/OmniSeq and or assignees. Labcorp/OmniSeq will maintain all detailed clinical information including demographic data (de-identified), ethnicity, disease state, stage (radiological, pathological and clinical-whichever is relevant).
This is an open label, randomized, phase Ⅱ, multi-cohort study to treat subjects with ctDNA Positive Gastric and Esophagogastric Junction Adenocarcinoma. The patients will be randomized into two arms consist of Penpulimab + Anlotinib (3 weeks/cycle) + XELOX and XELOX at a ratio of 1:1. This study is conducted to assess safety and anti-tumor activity of the monoclonal antibody Penpulimab in combination with Anlotinib and standard chemotherapy as adjuvant treatment for ctDNA-positive Gastric, or Gastroesophageal Junction Carcinoma.
The PLATON Network study is designed to elevate personalized therapy based on genomic tumor profiles in gastrointestinal cancer patients. Hereby, PLATON's study-design focuses on the patient's tumor molecular profiling. Within the network a web application will be developed to link clinical investigators and information on study sites, cancer patients and genetic alteration data, as well as available clinical trials at PLATON's study sites.
The hypothesis of this study is that an occlusion balloon catheter placed in the stomach via an oral or nasogastric route will be safe and permit tracking of the stomach during radiation therapy.
KN026-001 is a two-stage study (Open-label stage/Randomized stage). Open-label stage is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KN026 and chemotherapy when given together. Randomized stage is designed to evaluate the OS and PFS in patients receiving KN026 and chemotherapy compared to patients receiving placebo and chemotherapy.
To improve the accuracy of risk prediction, screening and treatment outcome of cancer, we aim to establish a medical database that includes standardized and structured clinical diagnosis and treatment information, image features, pathological features, and multi-omics information and to develop a multi-modal data fusion-based technology system using artificial intelligence technology based on database.
This trial is an open-label, single-arm clinical study. The main purpose is to verify the safety and efficacy of CAR-T cell preparations in the treatment of CEA-positive advanced malignant tumors, and to obtain the recommended dose and infusion scheme of CAR-T cell preparations for the treatment of patients with CEA-positive advanced malignant tumors.
