Filter by:This pilot phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well nivolumab and ipilimumab in combination with chemotherapy and radiation therapy work in treating patients with gastric cancer that can be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin and fluorouracil, 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. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy uses thin beams of radiation of different strengths aimed at the tumor from many angles. This type of radiation therapy may reduce the damage to healthy tissue near the tumor. Giving nivolumab, ipilimumab, chemotherapy and radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with gastric cancer.
This Phase I/Ib study is a Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Study of GZ17-6.02 Monotherapy and in Combination with Capecitabine, Given Orally on a Daily Schedule in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors or Lymphoma
Background: Cancer-related fatigue (CRF), one of the indicators of QoL, is one of the most common side effects of cancer and its treatment. However, the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in CRF among cancer patients are not completely understood. Therefore, more in-depth researches on CRF of surgical patients suffering from gastric cancer are needed in Taiwan. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the incidence rate and correlated factors (QoL and immune biomarkers) of CRF among gastric cancer patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Method: A longitudinal study was conducted to recruit gastric cancer patients who scheduled to operate at surgical clinics from a northern medical center in Taiwan. The data will be collected with a structured questionnaire and Immune markers assessments via purposive sampling of 120 subjects. Before operation, on day 1 after operation, and on day 7 after operation, the biomarkers will be measured. The BFI-T questionnaire will be filled out before surgery and on day 1, 2, 7, 28 after surgery; The EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-STO22 questionnaire will be filled out before surgery and on day 7, 28 after surgery; Type D scale-14(Taiwanese version) questionnaire will be filled out before surgery and on day 28 after surgery. Data will be analyzed by using descriptive statistics, paired t-test, Chi square test, Pearson's correlation, and the generalized estimating equation (GEE) was used to identify significant factors with QoL after operation. Anticipated achievement: The anticipated achievement of this study is to provide healthcare providers with more knowledge about CRF, and help them to enhance the quality of life on gastric cancer patients in the future.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with ramucirumab, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab biosimilar as second line treatment of HER2 positive metastatic gastric cancer after failure of first line chemotherapy including trastuzumab. This study is a phase II, single-arm, open label, multi-center study.
The primary objective is to evaluate six months survival rate and quality of life at 4 months of ramucirumab alone or in combination with paclitaxel in patients aged 70 years or more who have stomach or GEJ adenocarcinoma and whose first line of fluoropyrimidine- and platinumcontaining treatment has failed. The co-primary endpoints are the following: - Six months survival rate - Quality of life at 4 months as assessed by the following three target dimensions of the EORTC QLQ-ELD14 questionnaire: mobility, illness burden and worries about the future
EBV positive tumor accounts for 8-9% of all gastric cancer (GC) patients. PD-1 antibody has been proved as third line therapy for PD-L1 positive gastric cancer. Previous studies showed that EBV(+) tumors exhibit high response to PD-1 antibody. In this phase II study, we will investigate the efficacy and safety of PD-1 antibody in EBV positive metastatic GC patients.
This is a pilot study evaluating the efficacy of acupuncture on quality of life in gastric cancer patients undergoing postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Enrolled participates will randomly receive high-dose acupuncture, low-dose acupuncture or none-acupuncture during the first 3 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy after resection.
To evaluate safety and response rate of durvalumab/tremelimumab in combination with paclitaxel in patients with metastatic gastric cancers who fail a first-line chemotherapy
The purpose of this study is to estimate overall survival of Sintilimab+ oxaliplatin + capecitabine and placebo+ oxaliplatin + capecitabine, as first-line treatment of patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.
Researchers already did studies in low-dose Aspirin for the prevention of heart and blood vessels disease and for the prevention of cancer of the colorectum. In this study, they want to learn whether an effect for the prevention of oesophagus cancer and stomach cancer goes along with the use of low-dose ASA on patients taking this medicine for the prevention of heart and blood vessels disease compared to non-use. To find this out electronic medical records stored in primary care database in the UK, The Health Improvement Network (THIN), will be used.
