Filter by:Previous reports suggest benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy/chemoradiation treatment for borderline resectable cholangiocarcinoma. This study is a single center prospective phase II study of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with mFOLFOXIRI in patients with borderline resectable cholangiocarcinoma.
The propose of this study is to confirm safety and efficacy of Apatinib monotherapy in patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma.
Malignant tumors of biliary system lack standard treatment and precise prognosis assessment methods. This study including 12 hospitals, collecting clinical and follow-up data of patients with biliary malignant tumors including cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder carcinoma in recent 10 years, aim to build a special disease database, then use Bayesian networks and importance theory to establish a mathematical model to assess treatment strategies and prognosis accurately. At the same time, data on biliary malignant tumors newly treated by multicenters from 2018 to 2020 will be included to validate, adjust and refine the models to guide clinical individualized precise treatment.
Major surgery is a stressful procedure; good recovery after surgery is important to patients and their doctors. Studies done at the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) with cancer patients awaiting surgery have shown that exercise combined with simple diet recommendations (which may include a supplement) and relaxation techniques before surgery helped speed up the ability to resume walking after surgery. These results have made the investigators aware that exercise and good nutrition are as important before surgery as they are after surgery; while it is common practice to start strengthening the body after surgery (rehabilitation), there may be some advantage to begin this process before surgery (prehabilitation). The purpose of this study is to see if the following program, either before or after surgery, can help patients recover from liver, pancreas or bile duct surgery: 1. Exercise that may help participants move and breath better, 2. Nutrition advice and a supplement to make participants strong, 3. Relaxation and anti-anxiety tips to help cope with the stress of upcoming surgery The investigators will see if following this program will have an effect on participants' ability to walk before and after surgery.
International registry for cancer patients evaluating the feasibility and clinical utility of an Artificial Intelligence-based precision oncology clinical trial matching tool, powered by a virtual tumor boards (VTB) program, and its clinical impact on pts with advanced cancer to facilitate clinical trial enrollment (CTE), as well as the financial impact, and potential outcomes of the intervention.
Investigators asses whether there is any difference in short term recovery and long term prognosis according to the anesthetic method in patients who undergoing pancreatic cancer and bile duct cancer and undergoing surgery for PPPD or distal pancreatectomy.
This study is a biobank of specimens and clinical data for use in current and future research to better understand the cholestatic liver diseases primary biliary cirrhosis/cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC).
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the most common biliary tract malignancy and the second most common primary hepatic malignancy. The prognosis of CCA is dismal. Surgery is the only potentially curative treatment, but the majority of patients present with advanced stage disease, and recurrence after resection is common. It is classified into intrahepatic (iCCA), perihilar (pCCA), and distal (dCCA) subtypes. Among all, pCCA is the most common subtype. This is a prospective, randomized, controlled multicenter trial with two treatment arms, three dimension laparoscopic approach versus open approach. The trial hypothesis is that three dimension laparoscopic surgery has advantages in postoperative recoveries and be equivalent in operation time, oncological results and long-term follow-up compared with open counterpart. The duration of the entire trial is two years including prearrangement, follow-up and analyses.
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and how well trifluridine/tipiracil hydrochloride combination agent TAS-102 (TAS-102) and nanoliposomal irinotecan work in treating patients with gastrointestinal cancers that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in the chemotherapy, such as trifluridine/tipiracil hydrochloride combination agent TAS-102 and nanoliposomal irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
We hypothesized that intra-arterial gemcitabine/oxaliplatin administered as second-line treatment could strongly improve objective response rate at 4 months after inclusion in patient with non-metastatic unresectable intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
