Filter by:This trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter, phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab as consolidation therapy in elderly patients with esophageal cancer who did not progress after concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Patients aged 70-85 years with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who did not progress after concurrent chemoradiotherapy and meet the inclusion criteria will be stratified according to MRD status (positive vs negative) and randomized in a 1:1 ratio into two groups: the treatment group receiving sintilimab (for patients with a weight <60 kg: 3 mg/kg IV on Day 1 every 3 weeks; for patients with a weight ≥60 kg: 200 mg IV on Day 1 every 3 weeks) and the observation group receiving regular follow-up. Patients should receive the first dose within 42 days after completing the last radiotherapy session and continue treatment until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, loss to follow-up, death, or other circumstances where the investigator determines treatment should be discontinued, whichever occurs first. The maximum duration of sintilimab treatment is 12 months (from the start of treatment), while the observation group will be followed up every 3 months for at least one year. No other anti-tumor treatments are allowed during the study period. The study aims to compare the effects of the two treatment modalities on progression-free survival, overall survival, tumor response, toxicity reactions, and quality of life in elderly patients with esophageal cancer.
For patients with irresectable locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (e.g. multilevel or bulky N2 disease or presence of N3 lymph node metastases), current guidelines recommend treatment with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI, durvalumab). Chances of sterilization of a large (e.g. clinically staged T3 or T4 tumor) tumor volume by CRT alone are relatively small and these tumors are associated with a high local recurrence rate. Moreover, necrosis and cavitation of these tumors puts these patients at risk of fatal bleeding and might cause infectious complications, which lead to subsequent impaired quality of life (QoL) and to interruption of, or the need for postponing, (systemic) treatment. Upfront resection of the tumor in the lung, followed by postoperative CRT in patients who have a (potentially) resectable tumor could be a strategy to prevent complications of CRT in large volume and/or cavitating tumors with extensive mediastinal disease.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of Herbal gargle on chemoradiotherapy-induced stomatitis in head & neck cancer patients.
Control of the effect of prehabilitation on postoperative morbidity, assessed by the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI), in patients diagnosed with rectal cancer that will receive neoadjuvant Quimiorradiotherapy (NCRT) and subsequent surgery, performed at the beginning of NCRT or before surgery.
In left-sided colon and rectal cancer, the occurrence of synchronous para-aortic lymph node metastasis is rare, with the incidence of being approximate 1-2%. Currently, there has been no standard treatment strategy for this situation. The present trial is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of para-aortic lymph node dissection for left-sided colon and rectal cancer with synchronous para-aortic lymph node metastasis
This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of radiotherapy combined with Toripalimab (PD-1 inhibitor) in the treatment of locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction.
