Filter by:This is an open label, multicenter, phase 1/2 study to assess the safety/tolerability and preliminary clinical activity of STAR0602 as a single agent administered intravenously in participants with advanced solid tumors that are antigen-rich.
Abdominal surgery is usually associated with severe postoperative pain. The transverse abdominal plane (TAP) block is considered an effective means for pain control in such cases. The quadratus lumborum (QL) block is another option for the management of postoperative pain. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of quadrates lumborum blocks and Transversus abdominis plane blocks for pain management after abdominal cancer surgery.
In recent years, template guidance has been applied and developed in the field of puncture related operations, such as template-assisted radioactive seed implantation. With the guidance of template, needle pathway of seed implantation, biopsy and fiducial marker implantation can be precisely planned actual operation, which is conducive to the accurate proceeding. Templates can be divided into coplanar templates and non-coplanar templates. The digital coplanar template coordinate puncture system has been developed in China and has been applied in clinical practice. In our previous studies, coplanar template assisted CT-guided radioactive seed implantation has good clinical feasibility for percutaneous biopsy of small pulmonary nodules. However, the accuracy of coplanar template assistance for abdominal tumor puncture are lacking in prospective studies. The study aims to prospectively observe the accuracy and safety of coplanar template assisted CT-guided abdominal tumor puncture during biopsy and fiducial markers implantation.
Recent studies that ex vivo drug responses on PDO models across different solid tumours can predict treatment responses to chemotherapeutic agents. In patients with metastatic or inoperable solid abdominal tumours, we perform a PDO based drug screen and to identify drugs that will confer clinical response and compared to conventional treatments
The investigators carry out a multi center, randomized controlled clinical study to analyze the impact of the whole process multi-mode rehabilitation management (nutrition-Sports-Psychology) on the nutritional status, physical status, psychological status, treatment side effects and the completion rate of radiotherapy and chemotherapy of patients with abdominal tumors; To explore and establish a multi-mode rehabilitation management path for patients with malignant tumors undergoing concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
Pediatric epidural anesthesia has emerged as a safe and effective regional anesthesia technique for providing intraoperative and postoperative analgesia in thoracic and abdominal surgery. The loss of resistance technique is the gold standard for the placement of the epidural. The VPC (visual pressure control) syringes developed by PAJUNK enable direct visualization of the introduction of the needle into the epidural space.
Families of children with rare diseases (i.e., not more than 5 out of 10.000 people are affected) are often highly burdened with fears, insecurities and concerns regarding the affected child and his/her siblings. The aim of the present research project is to examine the psychosocial burden of the children with rare solid abdominal tumors and their family in order to draw attention to a possible psychosocial care gap in this population.
This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of tumor treating fields therapy in combination with either cabozantinib or nab-paclitaxel and atezolizumab in treating patients with solid tumors involving the abdomen or thorax that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced). Tumor treating fields therapy on this study utilizes NovoTTF systems that are wearable devices that use electrical fields at different frequencies that may help stop the growth of tumor cells by interrupting cancer cells' ability to divide. Cabozantinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, 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. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving tumor treating fields therapy in combination with either cabozantinib, or with nab-paclitaxel and atezolizumab may help control advanced solid tumors involving the abdomen or thorax.
This clinical trial studies the effect of behavioral health support including tele-health in helping surgical patients taper off of prescription opioid pain medications. "Tapering off" means taking dose amounts of medication that get smaller over time, so that less and less of the drug is used until it is not needed anymore. Researchers want to learn how these techniques may improve a patient's ability to lower or avoid dependence on opioid medications after surgery, and if behavioral therapies may improve quality of life, emotional well-being, and functional status around surgery.
Epidural analgesia is considered by many to be the reference standard which has been shown to reduce the intraoperative surgical stress response. However, besides its excellent analgesic effect, there are some disadvantages associated with epidural analgesia. This includes the risk of epidural hematoma/abscess ,failure rates hypotension, urinary retention. Also the need for preoperative placement in awake patients, who seem to dislike and sometimes even refuse. It is contra-indicated in the presence of coagulopathy or local sepsis. ESPB is a faster procedure that carries a lower risk of hypotension, can be used in patients with coagulopathy, easy to perform, and requires less training. So this study is to compare the postoperative analgesic effect of continous bupivacaine infusion via thoracic epidural versus erector spinae catheters following upper abdominal cancer surgery.
