The overall goal of the WU-PE-CGS is to build a rigorous, scientific evidence base for approaches that direct engagement of cancer patients and post-treatment cancer survivors as participants in cancer research, and to investigate the impact of directly engaging participants in decisions regarding returning of genomic results on participants' health and satisfaction. Participants in this study will be presented with the choice of types of genomic results to receive, and the Engagement Optimization Unit (EOU) will investigate the impact of this intervention on participant knowledge, expectations of benefit, personal utility, and decisional conflict.
This is a randomized trial to compare the standard echoendoscope with the newly developed EndoSound Visual System in the evaluation of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract.
This study is a single-arm Phase II clinical trial aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HAIC combined with Cadonilimab and Regorafenib as second-line treatment for unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The study plans to enroll approximately 45 participants. All enrolled participants will receive continuous treatment: HAIC-Gemox: Gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 on Day 1 + Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 on Day 1, every 3 weeks (Q3W), for up to 6 treatment cycles, Cadonilimab(6mg/kg, D2, Q3W) and Regorafenib (80mg QD, Q3W) until the investigator determines that there is no longer any clinical benefit (based on comprehensive assessment including RECIST v1.1 imaging evaluation and clinical condition), intolerable toxicity, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, or meeting other criteria for treatment discontinuation, whichever occurs first.
Patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (IHC) have relatively aggressive tumors, and the prognosis for most of these patients is dismal. Surgery is the only option that can offer potential cure, but only an estimated 20-25 % are amenable to resection. Down-staging conventional chemotherapy has a relatively low response rate (< 50 %). Patients will be included into the respective treatment arms based on their tumour characteristics and disease stage, but also based on their ability/preferences, as HAI-FUDR/DEX requires going to Oslo every fortnight for the duration of the treatment and SIRT has some limitations regarding tumour distribution. Data from the MSKCC has suggested a clinically relevant benefit from adding intrahepatic chemotherapy to systemic therapy. HAI-FUDR/DEX is not approved in Norway and can only be evaluated in a protocolized trial. Given the risk of distant disease progression with IHC, the addition of conventional systemic chemotherapy makes good clinical sense, and data from MSKCC supports this approach. SIRT is another modality also applied trans-arterially and directly into the tumour. This treatment is approved in Norway and available in Bergen and in Oslo. It is far less cumbersome to deliver and maintain than HAI-FUDR/DEX. The efficacy and safety of the two treatment groups, HAI-FUDR/DEX and SIRT, will be compared in a parallel cohort (non-randomized) design
The purpose of this study is to compare laparoscopic ablation to open ablation of liver malignancies regarding complication rates and ablation response as well as quality of life following the surgery.
This study is researching whether the combination of Afatinib and Pemigatinib is safe and effective in FGFR altered unresectable or metastatic advanced solid tumors. The study is also trying to discover the highest doses of the study drugs that can be administered without causing any intolerable side effects. This research study involves the study drugs Afatinib and Pemigatinib.
In this phase 2 study, the investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined therapy using gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy, Lenvatinib and Adebrelimab for patients with advanced and unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the efficacy and safety of combined infusion chemotherapy with Adebrelimab and Apatinib in the perioperative treatment of resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma patients. The main question it aims to answer are: How to improve the survival of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and prolong the recurrence time after surgery. Participants will receive receive neoadjuvant therapy with Adebrelimab combined with apatinib and FOLFOX-HAIC for 2 cycles (1 treatment cycle every 21 days, apatinib only used for the first cycle), and surgery was performed 14-28 days after the end of treatment. After 28 days of surgery, patients will continue to receive adjuvant treatment with Adebrelimab combined with apatinib for a maximum of one year.
Circulating tumor DNA assays are becoming relevant for routine diagnostics, but many related aspects are yet unresolved. With this project, the investigators aim to develop pragmatic molecular diagnostic pathways of liquid biopsies relevant in advanced gastrointestinal malignancies with focus on clinical utility and sensible use of resources. They want to evaluate the ctDNA assays on a fully automated "low-cost" multiplex platform which is already implemented in routine molecular diagnostics of solid biopsies. The project will evaluate to what extent these ctDNA assays are relevant for clinical decision-making.
