How to reduce the complications of perineal wound after abdominoperineal resection (APR) has always been a hot topic in the medical field.To reduce the complications of perineal wound and the primary healing of perineal wound must meet the two principles of "unobstructed drainage" and " reduced tension closure".This concept is similar to the concepts of closure of enterostomy in rectal cancer patients. It was reported that use of cross-stitch closure can significantly reduce complications of closure of enterostomy. So the investigator ever used the "cross" closure to reconstruct the perineal wound of APR, which was really decrease the complications of perineal wound. However, more clinical trails was needed to confirm the conclusion.
There is increasing awareness of augmenting risk of anal cancer in people living with HIV, especially among men who have sex with men (MSM). High resolution anoscopy (HRA) represents the gold standard to detect pre-cancerous anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), however, the procedure is time-consuming, costly and, most importantly, the learning curve is very flat. This yields a poor implementation of anal screening and, likely, to an excess of otherwise preventable anal cancer. Other screening methods include digital ano-rectal examination, anal-rectal cytology and human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping, since infection with high-risk HPV genotypes has been identified as the main reason for the development of HSIL. To date, there is no consensus in screening strategies. Furthermore, it remains unclear whether, in whom and to which extend the currently available topic and invasive treatment options for HSIL should be applied, given that the natural history of the development of anal cancer remains poorly understood. The present cohort study aims to provide real-life data on the screening, management and follow-up of HIV-infected MSM is warranted for a better understanding of anal cancer in this setting.
This phase II trial studies the side effects of LET-IMPT and standard chemotherapy, and how well they work in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage I-III anal canal squamous cell cancer. LET-IMPT is a type of radiation therapy that uses high energy proton "beamlets" to "paint" the radiation dose into the target and may help to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving LET-IMPT and standard chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with anal canal squamous cell cancer.
This study evaluates the use of ABI-1968, a topical cream, in the treatment of anal precancerous lesions in adults with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
SCARCE is a non-comparative randomized, 2:1 phase II study. The purpose of this study is to assess the progression-free survival rate at 12 months. (evaluation according with RECISTv1.1 criteria). For all patients, CT scan will be planned at baseline, and every 8 weeks until 12 months from randomization (or disease progression), and every 12 weeks thereafter. PET scan will be performed at baseline, at the end of mDCF treatment, and at 12 months after randomization (in absence of disease progression). CT scan and PET scan will be collected for a centralized review.
This is a Phase 1, multiple dose, ascending dose escalation study to define a MTD/RD and regimen of XmAb20717, to describe safety and tolerability, to assess PK and immunogenicity, and to preliminarily assess anti-tumor activity of XmAb20717 in subjects with selected advanced solid tumors.
Questionnaire to be completed by patients coming for PET to identify the predictive factors of physiological hypermetabolism of the anal canal
This is a phase 2, open-label efficacy study of VGX-3100 administered by intramuscular (IM) injection followed by electroporation (EP) in adult men and women who are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) negative with histologically confirmed anal or anal/peri-anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) associated with human papilloma virus (HPV)-16 and/or HPV-18. Approximately 24 participants will receive at least 3 doses of VGX-3100.
The purpose of this research study is to find ways to screen for anal cancer among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender persons. This study will try to find out if persons will do annual anal cancer screening, what factors are associated with repeated screening, and how this affects a person's decision to have high-resolution anoscopy.
