Filter by:Chemotherapy is an important therapeutic method for patients with advanced gastric cancer. However, there is currently no established standard chemotherapeutic regimen in the preoperative or neoadjuvant treatment setting. The aim of our study was to compare the efficacy and toxicity between SEEOX and SOX regimens. The investigators estimate that combined intravenous and intra-arterial intensified SEEOX preoperative chemotherapy may be a safe and promising regimen for locally advanced or initially unresectable gastric cancer patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Electrical Impedance Tomography can be used as sensitive and specific predictor in the detection of postoperative pulmonary complications (e.g. pneumonia, bronchitis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, pleural effusion, pneumothorax, pulmonary edema, atelectasis, pulmonary embolism, hypoxemia, hypercapnia, spasms and obstructions of the airway) in patients undergoing epigastric surgery.
This pilot clinical trial studies an educational brochure in preparing patients with gastric cancer and their caregivers for recovery after surgery. Giving an educational brochure may help prepare patients and their caregivers by improving knowledge about symptoms after surgery. It may also improve quality of life and reduce worry after surgery.
The purpose of this study is to explore the short-term, long-term and oncological outcomes of laparoscopic spleen-preserving No. 10 lymph node dissection in a left-sided approach for advanced middle or upper third gastric cancer not invading greater curvature.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of genetic analysis-guided dosing of paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and irinotecan hydrochloride (FOLFIRABRAX) in treating patients with gastrointestinal cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and irinotecan hydrochloride, 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. Genetic analysis may help doctors determine what dose of irinotecan hydrochloride patients can tolerate.
The study is aimed to determine the potential of volatile marker testing for identification of gastrointestinal cancers (in particular - colorectal and gastric cancers), the related precancerous lesions in the stomach and colon. The study will be addressing the role of confounding factors, including lifestyle factors, diet, smoking as well as addressing the potential role of microbiota in the composition of exhaled volatile markers.
The purpose of this study is to explore the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of 3D Laparoscopic Surgery for Gastric Cancer. The patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (cT1-4aN0-3M0) were studied.
This is a Phase I, open label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of INO-1400 alone or in combination with INO-9012, delivered by electroporation in subjects with high risk breast, lung, or pancreatic cancer with no evidence of disease after surgery and adjuvant therapy. Subjects will be enrolled into one of six treatment arms. Subjects will be assessed according to standard of care. Restaging and imaging studies will be performed to assess disease relapse per NCCN guidelines. RECIST will be used to validate the findings in cases of relapse.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection combine with Laparoscopic Regional Lymph node Dissection for early gastric cancer can improve Disease-free survival ?
Gastric cancer represents a great challenge for health care providers and requires a multidisciplinary context in which surgery plays a main role. Minimally invasive surgery has been progressively developed, first with the advent of laparoscopy and more recently with the spread of robotic systems, but a number of issues are currently being debated, including the limitations in performing effective extended lymph node dissections and, in this context, the real advantages of using the robotic systems, the possible role for the Advanced Gastric Cancer, the reproducibility of completely intracorporeal techniques and the oncological results achievable during follow-up. A multicenter study with a large number of patients is now needed to further investigate the safety and efficacy as well as long-term outcomes of robotic surgery, traditional laparoscopy and the open approach.
