Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to compare the feasibility and efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (modified SOX) for elderly patients with locally advanced gastric cancer.
As long term totally implantable central venous access (TIVAPS) was increasingly needed in cancer patient, some modified techniques were introduced to improved the outcome and safety of the port implantation. In this modified technique, the prioritization were the safety and stability of catheter and port placement. Catheter was inserted to the cephalic vein in the deltopectoral groove, in which connected to the port pocket implanted in the anteromedial thorax. Connection was done by percutaenous and Seldinger technique by introducing a special trocar to ensure safety. Long term outcome was satisfactorily good by this technique without and major and minor events.
This project is to explore the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy on total tumor survival time, progression-free survival time, and recurrence-free survival time in patients with pTanyN0M0 upper urinary urothelial carcinoma with lymphatic vascular invasion (LVI) through a prospective case-control study.
To evaluate of the value of radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection in locally advanced prostate cancer after neoadjuvant hormonal therapy with or without docetaxel chemotherapy.
Preoperative radiation with single agent chemotherapy as sensitizer is the standard care of locally advanced rectal cancer. Local irradiation significantly increases surgical complications and impairs quality of life. Combination chemotherapy alone seems promising and provides similar benefit to chemoradiation as neoadjuvant therapy. Early administration of systemic therapy is also proved beneficial for long-term survival. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of chemotherapy alone with short-term modified FOLFOXIRI or long-term mFOLFOX with standard chemoradiation as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced rectal cancer.
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-1210 plus apatinib mesylate versus Pemetrexed and Carboplatin in Subjects with KRAS mutant stage IV non-squamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Worldwide, breast cancer is the most incident and prevalent cancer among women. Despite advances in the treatment of advanced breast cancer (ABC) during the past decade, adjuvant systemic therapy has yield little progression for such patients. ABC remains an incurable disease, responsible for approximate 40,000 deaths annually and a median life expectancy of no more than 3 years. The NCCN guidelines clearly define routine adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for the early breast cancer, however, for the patients with recurrence and metastasis, the choice of treatment options is not clear. In this trial, we choose the patients with disease progression who received anthracycline and taxane adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery. The patients received vinorelbine and gemcitabine (NG) or vinorelbine and platinum (NP) regiments for 6 cycles. Then the patients with complete response (CR), partly response (PR) and stable disease(SD) will be assigned to 3 groups, one group will receive the original regiment for 3 cycles to maintain treatment, one group will receive the vinorelbine for 6 cycles, the other group will receive the capecitabine for 6 cycles. Trasuzumab will be used to patients if HER-2 positive. Endocrine therapy will be used if the hormone receptors positive after the chemotherapy. The primary endpoint is to assess disease-free survival (DFS), the secondary endpoint is to assess the overall survival (OS).
Early detection of cardiomyopathy in patients receiving Anthracycline chemotherapy and determine if speckle tracking echo and Troponin gene will add benefit for early detection of cardiomyopathy. Improve economic impact of oncologic patients from whom high sensitive troponin negative and normal speckle tracking patients can be safely excluded from long-term cardiac monitoring programs. To correlate between the molecular gene expression of troponin genes and ryanodine receptor in cardiomyopathy
We plan to carry out a prospective, randomized, open phase III clinical trial which sponsored by the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital and Institute. The primary aim is to evaluate pCR of DT and ET regimen as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of HER2 negative Luminal B breast cancers and the correlation of pCR respectively with the susceptible gene mutation scores and differential protein identified by proteomics. For patients with pCR, the association between the 5 year DFS and susceptible gene mutation scores and differential protein identified by proteomics will be evaluated. All Non-pCR patients will receive NX chemotherapy for 4 cycles, and to evaluate correlations between 5 year DFS of these patients respectively with susceptible gene mutation scores and differential protein identified by proteomics, and to evaluate the safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and sequential adjuvant NX regimen therapy. Meanwhile, we will verify susceptible gene mutation scores and differential protein identified by proteomics are significant predictors of HER2 negative Luminal B breast cancer chemotherapy sensitivity and prognosis, and explore the feasibility of susceptible gene mutation scores and differential protein in clinical application.
The product under investigation relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing a pyrimidine nitrogen base, thymine, and the essential amino acid tryptophan. This product seems to have effect on quality of life and enhance adverse affects of chemotherapy in cancer patients.
