Filter by:The present study is a multicentric randomized phase III trial designed to assess whether overall survival and quality of life are improved in patients with asymptomatic colon cancer and unresectable SLM treated with resection of the PT followed by chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether J-shaped thoracophrenolaparotomy is effective in the surgical treatment of simultaneous liver and right lung metastases from colorectal cancer
- The recently introduced chemoembolization has been considered to be a very attractive new method in terms of response in the treatment of liver metastases from colon cancer carcinoma (LM-CRC). It appears to be particularly useful if carried out with the new embolization materials. - An 80% response rate was reported using TACE with Irinotecan pre-loaded Beads in patients with liver metastases from colon cancer, who had been pretreated with 2 or more lines of chemotherapy. - Since a greater activity was attained by a combination of Cetuximab and Irinotecan versus Cetuximab in monotherapy, the European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products (EMEA) has granted authorization to the use of Cetuximab in association with irinotecan in the treatment of irinotecan-refractory CRC-LM. - In this study we want to collect data on on time to progression and tolerability using DEBIRI+Cetuximab in LM-CRC
Investigation of application possibilities of optical spectroscopy within the field of oncology. Optical spectroscopy enables the possibility to specifically differentiate between different (human) tissues. The hypothesis is that incorporation of this technique into existing medical devices (e.g. biopsy needle) would enlarge the accuracy and reliability of these devices. The purpose is to improve and speed up the diagnostics and therapy of the malignancies.
This randomized, controlled, multicenter, non-comparative phase II trial compares an intensified perioperative treatment of patients with resectable synchronous or metachronous colorectal liver metastases to primary surgery and adjuvant systemic chemotherapy.
Contrast-enhanced intraoperative ultrasound (CE-IOUS) during surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CLM) has become a part of clinical practice. However, if it should be selectively or routinely applied remains unclear. This study is carried out to clarify which are the criteria for a selective use of CE-IOUS if any.
The study compares the established imaging techniques (CT, MRT, Contrast Ultrasound) with the new method of intraoperative contrast enhanced ultrasound to compare all methods for their rate of detection of colorectal liver metastasis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Thermodox, a thermally sensitive liposomal doxorubicin, in combination with thermal ablation in the treatment of hepatic colorectal liver metastases (CRLM).
