Filter by:The phenotype of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is supposed to be significant indicator that is correlated the prognosis of breast cancer patients who have completed neoadjuvant chemotherapy, primary tumor surgery with/without adjuvant chemotherapy. The aim of this observational study is to assess the efficacy of CTCs surveillance in predicting the prognosis of breast cancer patients.
Phase IIa clinical trial will be conducted with patients requiring in-label paclitaxel-chemotherapy due to ovarian or breast cancer. The efficacy of a 12-week telmisartan treatment, starting one week before planned paclitaxel-administration to prevent PIPNP (paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathic pain) will be assessed by measurement of occurrence of clinical symptoms of PIPNP as well as lipid profiles
In order to improve and individualize cancer treatment, personalized treatment needs to be developed much further. Liver metastasizing colorectal cancer is treated with a combination of oncological and surgical interventions. The selection of chemotherapy is today mainly done according to best guess. Today only a small fraction of oncological treatment may be known to be effective in a person before treatment start, most often it is trial and error. A fast reliable system for looking at response to different treatments in each unique patient is much needed and would, if successful, completely change the way we give oncological treatment today. Patient's tumor tissue will be evaluated with use of zebrafish embryo avatars to evaluate tumour growth and response to different combinations of chemotherapy. If successful interventional studies are planned.
In patients diagnosed with locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC)/borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC) and planned chemotherapy using FOLFIRINOX, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)/FOLFIRINOX combined treatment is performed on patients who agree to this study. The combined treatment group is treated in parallel with FOLFIRINOX and HIFU for the first four cycles and then CT is taken for reaction evaluation immediately, 2 months, and 4 months after the four-cycle treatment. For the response assessment, the response rate using RECIST ver. 1.1 and operable rate are evaluated and compared with the results of already established FOLFIRINOX single treatment in the investigators' institute. Time-to-progress and overall survival are calculated.
Through scientific and rigorous design, implementation, follow-up and statistics, the sponsor aims to explore the clinical efficacy and safety of Tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy (platinum + paclitaxel) in the treatment of patients with bone metastases cancer with unknown primary, and provide a better treatment plan for these patients. 1. Primary outcome: Objective response rate (ORR) 2. Secondary outcomes: disease control rate (DCR), duration of remission (DOR), progression-free disease (PFS), overall survival (OS), median PFS, median OS, stratification based on clinical features and PD-L1 expression, adverse reactions (AEs), and quality of life.
According to the latest data from the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) for 2020, breast cancer has been the most prevalent cancer with 2.26 million new cases. Among Chinese breast cancer patients, approximately 60% are hormone receptor (HR) positive, and 80% have early-stage breast cancer. For HR-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) negative breast cancer patients, the first peak of recurrence is about 2-3 years after surgery, especially for patients with high-risk clinical and/or pathological features. Therefore, adjuvant therapy is essential to reduce recurrence during this period. Capecitabine is an anti-metabolite fluoropyrimidine deoxynucleoside carbamate that can be converted to fluorouracil (5-Fu) in vivo. Studies have shown that patients with HR-positive HER2-negative breast cancer with high-risk factors may benefit from postoperative adjuvant capecitabine therapy as well as patients with triple-negative breast cancer. Therefore, we assumed that additional capecitabine may reduce the reccurence of breast cancer in patients with high-risk factors. This trial is an open, single-arm clinical trial designed to investigate the effect of additional adjuvant capecitabine therapy on recurrence and survival in HR-positive HER2-negative breast cancer patients with high-risk factors.
The purpose of this research study is to see how the brain changes in patients receiving chemotherapy (cytotoxic drug) treatment for colon or rectal cancer at Parkview Cancer Institute. This information will be used to identify helpful tests to diagnose individuals at risk for developing difficulties with thinking and memory due to their cancer treatments.
For locally advanced adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction(AEG) (cT3-4aN+M0), neoadjuvant chemotherapy was improved to downstage T and N stage, increase the resectability of tumor, and finally improve the long-term survival. Combination of perioperative PD-1 antibody and chemotherapy for locally advanced AEG could be a novel therapy to increase response rate and resectability and reduce recurrence rate. Sintilimab in this study is an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody for injection which has been approved for several malignant tumors. This study is a multi-center, open-label, randomized phase II clinical trial to evaluate tolerability, safety and efficacy of sintilimab in combination with perioperative chemotherapy in locally advanced AEG.
This is an open-label, multi-center, phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of postponing or omitting re-irradiation after systemic therapy with tislelizumab and chemotherapy in patients with unresectable recurrent loco-regionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Patients who did not respond to or progressed on another ICI are allowed to receive tislelizumab rechallenge as a subgroup.
