Filter by:The purpose of this study is to find out if an experimental drug will prevent metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma from becoming resistant to standard treatment for the disease. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - 9-ING-41 - Losartan - Ferumoxytol - FOLFIRINOX (made up of 4 different drugs): - 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) - Oxaliplatin - Irinotecan - Leucovorin
STUDY DESIGN This study is a prospective, randomized, multi-center study comparing intracorporeal versus extracorporeal anastomosis in performing laparoscopic right colectomy. The study subjects will be randomly assigned to 1. intracorporeal anastomosis (experimental group) 2. extracorporeal anastomosis (control group) with 1:1 manner. After surgery the subjects will be followed up at 1month, after then, every 3 month in total 3 years. STUDY POPULATION 1. Screening A detailed review of the medical records will be performed to assess inclusion/exclusion criteria for all subjects who have been diagnosed with right colon tumor (malignant or benign) or benign disease (complicated diverticulitis and so on) that are subject to a right colectomy procedure. All patients who are eligible, meet the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria of this study, will be offered enrollment into the study at each site. RISK ANALYSIS 1. Potential risks All these procedures are in practice today and only surgeons competent in a technique shall be allowed to perform those surgeries. Therefore, there are no anticipated additional risks than would normally be encountered from these surgeries when they are performed for these patients. 2. Potential benefits There may be some benefit due to having closer follow-up in the study. QUALIFICATION OF PARTICIPATING SURGEONS 1. Surgical procedure - Laparoscopic surgery: a surgical technique where operations are performed far from their target anatomy location through small incisions normally less than 15mm. - Extracorporeal anastomosis: the anastomosis is performed by pulling out the bowel through a laparotomy. - Intracorporeal anastomosis: the anastomosis is performed inside the abdominal cavity with a laparoscopic technique. Specimen extraction will be done through Pfannenstiel incision or similar incision in lower abdomen. 2. Procedure standardization and qualification procedure Participating surgeons should complete the learning curve of the procedure and experience at least 50 laparoscopic right colectomy. They are required to be evaluated by the quality control (QC) committee. They should submit their unedited videos of laparoscopic right colectomy and must be accepted by 2 or more of total 3 QC committee members. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Based on attaining a success rate of 85% for the primary endpoint, a total of 106 subjects will be required for each group. Accounting for a 5% loss, a total of 241 subjects will be recruited for this study.
The aim of this study is to verify the safety and efficacy of single or reduced ports laparoscopic gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer.
This study is a first-in-human, Phase 1, open label, multicenter, dose escalation study with expansion at the RP2D, to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of ZB131 in patients with solid tumors where prevalence of CSP expression is high. Approximately 12 to 24 patients will be enrolled in the Dose Escalation Stage; the total number of patients will depend on the dose level at which the RP2D is defined. Patients who meet the eligibility criteria during Screening will enter the treatment period. ZB131 will be given via IV every week. Patients will be treated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities occur.
Primary Objectives: Part 1: to confirm the recommended tusamitamab ravtansine loading dose Q2W in combination with ramucirumab in advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma population Part 2: to assess the antitumor activity of tusamitamab ravtansine loading dose Q2W in combination with ramucirumab in advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma Secondary Objectives: - To assess safety - To assess durability - To assess progression-free survival (PFS) - To assess the disease control rate (DCR) - To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) - To assess the immunogenicity
This is an observational study to determine the feasibility of assessing tumor response utilizing ctDNA in patients of locally advanced esophageal and gastroesophageal junction (LA-EA/GEJ) cancer undergoing total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) consisting of systemic chemotherapy (modified FOLFOX or FLOT/DFOX) followed by concurrent chemoradiation [50.4 Gray (Gy) over approximately six weeks with concurrent radio sensitizing dose of carboplatin/paclitaxel].
Within the next decade, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is expected to rise to the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality. To increase the survival, various peri-operative treatments have been tested, and adjuvant FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine plus capecitabine is now standard of care after surgical resection for localized PDAC. Even with superior survival among various disease extent of PDAC, resectable PDAC still shows poor outcomes with surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. This phase II study is investigating the role of modified-FOLFIRINOX as neoadjuvant treatment for resectable PDAC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a new type of imaging study, called 18F-Clofarabine (CFA) PET/CT, can be used to image cancer pyrimidine metabolism in participants. PET (positron emission tomography) imaging is a way of looking at cancers that can reveal cancer metabolism. Presently, however, there are no imaging agents in routine use to look at an aspect of cancer metabolism (pyrimidine metabolism) that dictates whether certain cancer drugs, e.g., gemcitabine, are likely to be taken into the cancer cells. This clinical trial will be testing whether 18F-Clofarabine (CFA) could be an imaging agent to measure this aspect of cancer metabolism.
The purpose of this study is to utilize this technology in the early detection and staging of pathologic states within prostate cancer patients using the information obtained on mpMRI and serum biomarkers from the patient's blood (if collected). Ultimately, investigators hope to improve the diagnostic accuracy and treatment selection process for these patients. Applying the fusion software which adds mpMRI to ultrasound images in real time, to an otherwise clinically standard but non-targeted ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy procedure will help with accurate and early diagnosis of prostate cancer.
The purpose of ORACLE is to demonstrate the ability of a novel ctDNA assay developed by Guardant Health to detect recurrence in individuals treated for early-stage solid tumors. It is necessary that ctDNA test results are linked to clinical outcomes in order to demonstrate clinical validity for recurrence detection and explore its value in a healthcare environment subject to cost containment.
