Filter by:We star a multicentre, one-armed, clinical pilot trial intends to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Apatinib Combined With Oxaliplatin, Gimeracil and Oteracil Porassium Capsules Neoadjuvant Ttherapy for Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer(cT2-4/N+M0)
Background: Gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths around the world. This disease is a serious problem in places like East Asia, Central and South America, and Eastern Europe. Researchers want to study the causes of gastric cancer and its precursors. They want to reduce the number of people with stomach cancer. Objectives: To learn more about bacteria factors and other causes of gastric cancer. To study potential markers associated with precancerous gastric lesions (intestinal metaplasia). Eligibility: Adults ages 40-70 years at certain hospitals in Chile who: Are going to have upper gastrointestinal endoscopies OR have stomach cancer and need surgery Design: Participants will give gastric tissue samples. Some participants will donate a portion of the stomach tissue that is removed as part of their clinical care. Participants will give access to reports of their stomach exam. They will allow researchers to photograph the microscope slides of their tissue samples. Participants will answer questions. The topics of the questions include: Age, height, weight Education Habits including tobacco and alcohol Personal and family history of disease Reproductive history Diet Some participants will give blood, urine, saliva, and stool samples. Study staff will collect the blood. They will tell the participants how to collect the other samples themselves.
The goal of this study is to learn about the safety and tolerance of autologous TSA-DC cell and evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of the cell therapy compared to the patients' past standard regimen. 20 gastrointestinal solid tumors subjects failed from at least one systemic therapy will be enrolled into the trial and receive a succession of treatment of TSA-DC vaccine.
This project is a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled clinical observation the safety and efficacy that stage IV limited peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer patients accept hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy with CRS and systemic chemotherapy. With advanced-stage gastric patients of confined to the peritoneal as the research object, with median progression-free survival and overall survival, adverse events as the end points.
1. Metastatic gastric cancer patients who failed standard treatment will be enrolled in this study. 2. After consent form, patient-derived cancer cell will be collected and tested with 3 kinds of drugs (sunitinib, gefitinib, imatinib). 3. Drug sensitivity prediction software (IRCR-DReSS) will present level of sensitivity and patients will be treated with sensitive drugs. 4. Patients will be evaluated every 6 weeks.
This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy with or without radiation or surgery works in treating participants with esophageal or gastric cancer that has spread to less than 3 places in the body (oligometastatic). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil and capecitabine, 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Surgery, such as complete surgical resection, may stop the spread of tumor cells by surgically removing organs or tumors. Giving chemotherapy with radiation or surgery may work better than chemotherapy alone in treating participants with oligometastatic esophageal or gastric cancer.
Over the past two decades, fast track surgery, also known as "enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS)" has been initiated and developed in colorectal surgery by Kehlet. The program is rapidly gaining popularity due to the significant benefits demonstrated in lowering complication rates and reducing hospital stay and costs. The benefits demonstrated in colorectal surgery by randomized trials and meta-analyses reduced pain, morbidity and hospital stay. Data in gastrectomy however, is scarce. Therefore the aim of this study is to compare the outcomes of laparoscopic gastrectomies with two different perioperative approaches, the traditional and the ERAS approach in a setting of a randomised controlled trial.
The main purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of TAEST16001（TCR Affinity Enhancing Specific T cell Therapy）in the multi-line treatment failed advanced solid tumors except non small cell lung cancer,including liver cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,bone and soft tissue tumors,breast cancer, bladder carcinoma,prostate carcinoma,thyroid cancer, ovarian cancer and so on. The patients must meet the two criteria: human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-A*0201+ and NY-ESO-1 positive cells≥25% by immunohistochemistry.
Background. Gastric cancer (GC) is the world's second leading cause of neoplastic mortality. Genetic alterations, response to treatments and mortality rates are highly heterogeneous across different regions. In Chile, GC is the leading cause of cancer death, affecting 20 per 100,000 people and >3,000 deaths/year. Clinical outcomes and response to "one size fits all" therapies are highly heterogeneous and thus a better stratification of patients may aid cancer treatment and response. Study design/methods. The Gastric Cancer Task Force (GCTF) is a Chilean collaborative, non-interventional retrospective study that seeks to stratify gastric adenocarcinomas (GACs) using retrospect clinical outcomes and genomic, epigenomic and protein alterations in a cohort of 200 patients. Tumor samples from the pathology department and the Cancer Center at UC Christus healthcare network at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile will be analyzed using a panel of 143 known cancer genes (Oncomine Comprehensive Assay) at the Center of Excellence of Precision Medicine (CEMP) in Santiago, Chile. Additionally, gene promoter methylation will be performed and selected clinically relevant proteins (e.g. PD-L1, Erb-2, VEGFR2 among others) will be assessed by Tissue Microarray, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) status will also be assessed. Observations will be correlated to 120 clinical parameters, including general patient information, cancer history, laboratory studies, comorbidity index, chemotherapy, targeted therapies, efficacy and follow-up. Discussion. The development of a clinically meaningful classification that encompasses comprehensive clinical and molecular parameters may improve patient treatment, predict clinical outcomes, aid patient selection for clinical trials and offer insights into future preventive and/or therapeutic strategies.
Evaluating the application value of a new circulating tumor cell detection method for advanced gastric cancer patients in prediction of the prognosis and early evaluation of the result of postoperation adjuvant chemotherapy.
