Filter by:This is a prospective multicenter study with patients with delayed dysphagia after radiotherapy for NPC. Patients enrolled are randomly divided equally into the observation group and the control group. All patients receive conventional care, and the observation group received IOE while the control group received NGT for enteral nutrition support. Baseline information (demographics, medical history, etc.), nutritional status at admission and after treatment, depression, dysphagia, and quality of life (QOL) after treatment as well as adverse events are compared.
This is an open-label, single-arm, phase 2 study. The purpose of study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy combined with lenvatinib and cadonilimab as conversion therapy for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
Although definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard treatment option for unresectable locally advanced esophageal cancer, elderly patients tolerate intravenous concurrent CRT less well with age and comorbidities. Previous trials have demonstrated that CRT with oral S-1 was tolerable and provided significant survival benefits over radiotherapy alone in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, as high as 54% of patients with elderly ESCC experienced locoregional or distant recurrence after CRT. Therefore, a more effective regimen for older patients is needed. Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1/PD-L1 have shown substantial clinical benefits in advanced esophageal cancer. Recently, the combination of immunotherapy with CRT has emerged as a promising strategy to improve clinical outcomes in locally advanced esophageal cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) after concurrent CRT in elderly patients with locally advanced ESCC.
Patients with liver metastasis from esophagus squamous (ESC) are usually offered systemic therapy. However, for those with predominant liver disease or failure of system therapy, local liver management becomes an option. This prospective single center study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using percutaneous catheter placement techniques for liver metastases from esophagus squamous (ESC).
This phase II trial evaluates response-guided low-dose tamoxifen for reducing breast density in women who are at higher than average risk for breast cancer. Increasing breast density is a well established risk factor for breast cancer. Tamoxifen is a selective estrogen receptor modulator. It works by blocking the effects of the hormone estrogen in the breast. Tamoxifen has been shown to reduce breast density, even at reduced dosages, and is approved for the prevention of breast cancer.
This purpose of this study is to examine skin reactions (called radiation dermatitis) that occur during pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy. The researchers will test a unique technique called "Spot Delete" to see if it can reduce skin reactions for head & neck patients treated with PBS. The investigators will also use a special computer model to study how the energy of the proton beam (linear energy transfer) is related to these skin reactions. The study involves creating a treatment plan based on a CT scan, which helps guide the proton beam in the body.
This is a single-center, prospective, open-labeled, single-arm, interventional study to evaluate liver reserve and tumor response using Ga-68 Dolacga positron emission tomography and the safety of the investigational product in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma before and after proton therapy.
This is a phase I, open-label, single-arm study conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary efficacy of CGC729 with Relapsed or Metastatic advanced renal cell carcinoma. Condition or disease:Renal Cell Carcinoma Intervention/treatment: Biological: CD70 CAR-NKT cells Phase 1
The latest research has found that the use of positron-labeled FAP inhibitors for targeting FAP has achieved very good results in displaying tumor stroma, especially for tumors with poor FDG PET/CT observation, such as liver cancer, renal cancer, and gastric cancer. Although the studies were based on small sample data or case reports, they achieved significantly better results than 18F-FDG [13,15-17]. For patients who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, using FAPI PET/CT and FDG PET/CT imaging may have guiding significance for your treatment. If distant metastasis is found, information such as the location, size, and quantity of metastasis can be provided to provide objective imaging information for further treatment; We will promptly provide detailed information to you and your supervising physician, who will guide your personalized treatment. The drugs used have undergone strict quality inspection, and currently, no adverse reactions have been found in multiple medical institutions both domestically and internationally. If you experience any discomfort, new changes in your condition, or any unexpected circumstances during the study period, regardless of whether it is related to the study or not, you should promptly notify your doctor or contact our research leader. He/she will make a judgment and provide appropriate medical treatment. We will provide a certain proportion of compensation for any additional visits and expenses incurred during this examination. The entire research process is under the supervision of relevant departments of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital. If you encounter any questions during the research process, you can consult the research doctor.
This phase II trial tests the accuracy of functional imaging (FFNP)-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to predict response to abemaciclib plus endocrine therapy. Abemaciclib is a drug used to treat certain types of hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative breast cancer. Abemaciclib blocks certain proteins, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. Endocrine therapy adds, blocks, or removes hormones that can cause cancer to grow. FFNP PET imaging is a form of x-ray that uses FFNP as an imaging agent that may provide more precise information about the location of tumors that "light up" with FFNP than a PET scan alone can provide.
