Filter by:This phase II trial studies whether tucatinib combined with trastuzumab and TAS-102 works to shrink tumors in patients with HER2 positive colorectal cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) and has one of the following gene mutations detected in blood: PIK3CA, KRAS, NRAS, or BRAF V600. Tucatinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps stop or slow the spread of tumor cells. Trastuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches itself to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab attaches to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the tumor cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. TAS-102 is a combination of 2 drugs; trifluridine and tipiracil. Trifluridine is in a class of medications called thymidine-based nucleoside analogues. It works by stopping the growth of tumor cells. Tipiracil is in a class of medications called thymidine phosphorylase inhibitors. It works by slowing the breakdown of trifluridine by the body. Giving tucatinib, trastuzumab, and TAS-102 together may work better than usual treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer.
The incidence of esophagogastric junction has been increasing in recent years, and surgery is an important method for the treatment of adenoma at the esophagogastric junction. Currently, there is a great controversy about the surgical method of Siewert II, mainly choosing the right chest or the left chest for thoracic surgery. Therefore, it is of great significance to further study the surgical methods of Siewert II esophagogastric junction adenoma. Objective: To compare the safety, feasibility, and clinical efficacy of endoscopic Ivor-Lewis versus laparoscopic extended abdominal gastrectomy for Siewert type Ⅱadenocarcinoma at the resectable esophagogastric junction.
This study aims to assess overall survival, quality of life and resection rates in locally advanced pancreatic cancer
Few chemotherapeutic options exist for pancreatic cancer. Moreover, objective criteria are lacking for deciding which regimen is more beneficial for patient presenting with metastases at diagnosis. This study investigates whether organoid generation from tumour samples of pancreatic cancer is a safe and feasible process for testing of multiple chemotherapy regimens in the laboratory. By participating to this study, patients will have a part of the tumour tissue retrieved and sent to the laboratory for organoid generation and drug testing. For surgically-resectable tumors, tumoral tissue samples will be collected from the main surgical specimens, before sending it for final pathological examination. In case of suspected metastatic lesion at diagnosis, curative surgery is not indicated. Therefore, we will offer patients to undergo port-a-cath implantation for chemotherapy delivery and concomitant laparoscopic surgical excisional biopsy of suspicious metastatic (either hepatic or peritoneal) lesions. At this stage of the study, the treatment that the patient will receive after surgery will not be affected by the results of the laboratory testing. In fact, all patients will receive the standard of care treatment based on the most recent oncologic guidelines and on the oncologist's clinical judgement. As part of the study, each patient will be followed for 30 days to assess possible surgical complications related to the surgical biopsy. This study will help to speed up the implementation of organoid generation in the clinical routine for the choice of the best treatment of patients affected by pancreatic cancer.
This is a single center, single arm, phase II, prospective study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy (HAIC) combined with PD-1 inhibitor immunotherapy Toripalimab and Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Donafenib in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer.
This is a study of Camrelizumab combined with Apatinib versus Apatinib alone in the third-line treatment of metastatic gastric cancer. Paticipants will be radomized to receive treatment of Camrelizumab combined with Apatinib or Apatinib alone. The primary study hypothesis is that the adding Camrelizumab to Apatinib can prolong the progressive-free survival of the paticipants.
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI/MRI) has been described in recent literature as a highly sensitive and specific modality for the detection of peritoneal metastases (PM). It has been demonstrated to be superior to computed tomography (CT) for patients with known peritoneal disease from colorectal and gynaecological malignancies. However, the literature is scarce on the role of DWI/MRI in patients with pancreatic ductal-adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The aim of this study is to prospectively assess the added value of whole-body DWI/MRI (WB-DWI/MRI) to CT for detection of PM in the preoperative staging of patients with high-risk PDAC and evaluate how it correlates with intraoperative findings.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Human Multigene Methylation Detection Kit (Fluorescent PCR Method) for help diagnose lung cancer by comparing with clinical standard method (includes chest CT examination or pathological examination).
The purpose of this study is to see if taking ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is reasonable, safe and can stabilize or increase weight along with quality of life in pancreatic cancer patients.
This is a phase I, multi-center clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, antitumor activities and pharmacokinetics of IN10018 as monotherapy or in combination with docetaxel in previously-treated locally advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.
