Filter by:The purpose of study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ONO-4538 in patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer (including esophagogastric junction cancer) refractory to or intolerant of standard therapy.
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used for local treatment of gastric neoplasms. Although ESD-related complications such as bleeding and perforation have been reported, data is currently lacking on the development of pain, which is one of the most common adverse events after ESD. Therefore, in the present study, we investigated the incidence and clinicopathologic risk factors of pain after ESD.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of volitinib in combination with docetaxel in patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric cancer and to determine the Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of volitinib in combination with docetaxel.
The objective of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of trastuzumab plus XELOX for treatment of HER2-positive Stage III Gastric Cancer After D2 Gastrectomy.
This is the first randomized controlled trial comparing laparoscopic and open gastrectomy for resectable gastric cancer in a Western population. The hypothesis is that laparoscopic gastrectomy will result in a lower post-operative burden by means of shorter post-operative hospital stay. Secondarily that laparoscopic gastrectomy is hypothesized to be associated with lower post-operative morbidity and readmissions, higher cost-effectiveness, and better post-operative quality of life, with similar mortality and oncologic outcomes, compared to open gastrectomy. The study starts on 1 December 2014. Inclusion and follow-up will take three and five years respectively. Short-term results will be analyzed and published after discharge of the last randomized patient.
- Laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy for the treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC) has been supported by high-quality evidence, and the high-level evidence for advanced gastric cancer based on large prospective randomized controlled trial as CLASS-01、JCOG 0901, KLASS -02 is still awaited.Hopefully, it would have also gained the solid evidence of laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (AGC). - China has entered the aging society since 1999. Among the GC patients in China, the average age is 65 years old, which makes increasing attempts to explore laparoscopic techniques in the treatment of elderly patients. - Nowadays, a considerable proportion of elderly patients suffer from multiple diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease. Thus the risk of intraoperative and postoperative complications can not be ignored. Unfortunately, there are rare studies specializing into the LAG for the GC patients of > 65 years old. - Accordingly, the comparison of intraoperative and postoperative complications between laparoscopy-assisted and open distal gastrectomy for over 65 years old patients with gastric cancer based on a randomized controlled trial is warranted.
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an advanced technique that enables en bloc resection of superficial tumors in the gastrointestinal tract. ESD, however, is a time-consuming procedure that requires a high level of endoscopic skill to achieve a desirable oncologic outcome. Especially, ESD for the lesion which is located in the antrum of lesser curvature side is difficult. Because the antrum of lesser curvature side is dependent position, irrigated water and blood may prevent visual field of ESD. Generally, whole precutting around the lesion during the ESD is performed prior to dissection. However, it is expected that partial precutting method for the lesion located in the antrum of the lesser curvature may improve the visibility of ESD because it can help us the flap of the lesion evaginated easily. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the procedure time of ESD for the lesion located in the antrum of the lesser curvature according to the precutting methods (whole precutting vs. partial precutting).
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an advanced technique that enables en bloc resection of superficial tumors in the gastrointestinal tract. ESD, however, is a time-consuming procedure that requires a high level of endoscopic skill to achieve a desirable oncologic outcome. Several procedure-related complications may occur after ESD. Especially, iatrogenic ulcer bleeding after ESD can be a concern for both endoscopists and patients. In order to reduce the bleeding rate, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are administered after ESD. In addition, ulcer protective agents such as rebamipide can be added to PPIs for accelerating ulcer healing. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of polaprezinc for healing of iatrogenic ulcer.
This is a Phase Ib, open-label, dose-escalation study to determine the Maximal tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for the combination of afuresertib and paclitaxel in subjects with recurrent HER2-negative gastric cancer, and further assess safety and preliminary efficacy of combination at the RP2D. Afuresertib had showed synergistic activity when combined with paclitaxel in vitro and in vivo models of gastric cancer. Dose escalation will continue until the MTD is established. The dose schedule is once daily (QD) dosing for afuresertib and intravenous (IV) infusion for paclitaxel Dose escalation in Part 1 will follow the 3 + 3 cohort design. A sequential approach will be conducted to explore the optimal paclitaxel regimen (weekly or 3weekly schedule) when combined with afuresertib. The dose escalation will be started from Cohort A (afuresertib combined with weekly paclitaxel regimen at 80 milligram (mg)/meter (m)^2 day1, 8,15, every 4 weeks (q4w). The starting dose in Cohort A will be 125 mg afuresertib QD. Once its MTD is identified, and then the study will move to dosing Cohort B (afuresertib combined with 3 weekly paclitaxel regimen at 175 mg/m^2 day1, every 3 week (q3w). The starting daily dose of Cohort B will be 25 mg less than the MTD dose from Cohort A for afuresertib. If it is tolerated, then the dose escalation schedule will be followed in Cohort B until the MTD in this Cohort is reached. If the starting dose is not tolerated, then dose de-escalation will be explored until the MTD in this Cohort is reached. Once two dimensions of the MTD are achieved, then the optimal regimen for paclitaxel and MTD for afuresertib combined with paclitaxel based on the toxicity profile will be identified. The combination regimen at the RP2D selected following Part I will be further investigated in its efficacy and safety in the Part II Expansion Cohort. Once a combination dose regimen for Part 2 has been determined, at least 20 and up to 40 subjects will be enrolled at the dose regimen selected following Part I. Overall response rate (ORR) will be evaluated using a Green-Dahlberg design. The design consists with one interim analysis. If less than 3 responses are observed in the initial 20 subjects, enrollment will be terminated due to futility; otherwise, the study will continue to meet the planned sample size of 40 subjects.
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an effective treatment for early gastric cancer or premalignant lesions in the stomach. ESD enables en bloc resection of gastrointestinal neoplasms, increases the rates of histologically complete resections, and also reduces local recurrence rates. Despite these advantages, ESD is thought to induce various complications. Wellknown ESD-related complications include perforation, postoperative bleeding, or stricture. In addition, minor adverse events after ESD are also commonly noticed. Pain is one of these frequently noticed minor ESD related complications, is the main reason for prolongation of the hospital stay, and is related to patients' compliance; however, there is a tendency to neglect or underestimate post-ESD pain. The causes of pain associated with ESD are thought to be associated with transmural burn or transmural air leak. Some studies have tried to control localized pain during and after ESD using local lidocaine, single dose postoperative intravenous dexamethasone or a transdermal fentanyl patch. Magnesium has been reported to alter the perception and duration of pain and produce important analgesic effects. It is included the suppression of neuropathic pain, potentiation of morphine analgesia, and attenuation of morphine tolerance. Although the exact mechanism is not yet fully understood, the analgesic properties of magnesium are believed to stem from regulation of calcium influx into the cell and antagonism of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors in the central nervous system. Also, magnesium may prolong neuromuscular blockade after administration of neuromuscular blocking drugs, increase sedation and contribute to serious cardiac morbidity. And magnesium as a hypotensive anaesthesia technique supply objectively better operative field, reduction in the duration of surgery and reduced blood loss. There have been no previous trials on the use of magnesium specifically for pain control following ESD. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of intravenous magnesium for pain relief after ESD.
