Filter by:To evaluate the diagnostic performance of blood-based SPOT-MAS test in symptomatic individuals, we sought to launch a prospective multicenter study, named K-ACCELERATE. The study aims to recruit 1,000 participants who develop symptoms and signs specific to the top five common cancer types including breast, colorectal, gastric, liver and lung cancer. Primary objective: Evaluate the performance of the SPOT-MAS test in detecting cancer in symptomatic populations. Secondary objectives: Evaluate the feasibility of incorporating SPOT-MAS as a triage test into primary care to increase the detection rates of malignant cancer while minimizing unnecessary referrals to invasive procedures.
This is a prospective implementation study that will include patients that are identified as being average risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) according to USPSTF guidelines and who have opted to be screened for CRC. The purpose of this study is to understand implementation of a noninvasive screening test in primary care and internal medicine clinical settings, and the impact on patient acceptability and adherence of CRC screening.
The PICoC study aims to investigate whether oral ferric maltol given postoperatively offers an improvement in patient and clinician reported outcomes compared to standard care.
The aim of this study is to compare the Surgical outcomes after laparoscopic intracorporeal versus extracorporeal anastomosis for right and left hemicolectomies in management of colonic cancers .
Developement of a clinical and biological database in colon cancer and colic tumors in order to better understand tumor invasion and metastatic scattering processes. The investigators hope that a better understanding of tumoral invasion process will lead to the discovery of new biomarkers and new drugs.
This project has for objective to demonstrate that the increase of the distance "Patient home - center of treatment" may be associated with significant, other noticeable, noted events. This distance may also be available in the Rouen University Hospital. The study of the association in this distance and the delay in initiating chemotherapy after surgery in patients treated at the CHU correspond to a pilot study prior to the completion of the analysis at the regional scale.
Colorectal cancers (CRC) are the third most common human malignancy, and are also the leading cause of cancer related deaths worldwide. Early detection of premalignant lesions such as adenomatous polyps has decreased the risk of CRCs; however, cases which are initially undetected and progress to advanced CRC with distant metastasis are still unfortunately incurable. The development of CRC is a complex and heterogeneous process arising from an interaction between multiple etiological factors, including genetic factors and environmental factors such as diet and lifestyle. The challenges are to understand the molecular basis of individual susceptibility to colorectal cancer and to determine factors that initiate the development of the tumor, drive its progression, and determine its responsiveness or resistance to antitumor agents. Next generation sequencing(NGS)-driven genomic studies are already reporting novel features of cancer genomes beyond the traditional mutational categories. Recent advance in sequencing technology has enabled comprehensive profiling of genetic alterations in CRC.These methods are facilitating an increase in the efficiency and resolution of detection of each of the principal types of somatic cancer genome alterations, including nucleotide substitutions, small insertions and deletions, copy number alterations, chromosomal rearrangements,DNA methylation sequencing such as bisulfite-sequencing and microbial infections. Besides the microsatellite instability (MSI), some researchers reported novel mitochondrial mutations in the cancer genomes. NGS technology will help the investigators for understanding of entire CRC genomes and the obtained knowledge will lead to a better diagnosis and personalized targeted therapeutics for CRC management
