Filter by:The PREEMPT CRC study is a prospective multi-center observational study to validate a blood-based test for the early detection of colorectal cancer by collecting blood samples from average-risk participants who will undergo a routine screening colonoscopy.
The efficiency of the D3 lymph node dissection is still controversial for left colon cancer patients. This study will try find difference in 5-year overall survival between D2 and D3 lymph node dissection. Investigation of the functional and short-term outcomes will clarify safety of the D3 lymph node dissection.
Phase 1 open label sequential dose escalation and cohort expansion study evaluating the safety, tolerability and preliminary antitumor activity of COM902 as monotherapy and in combination with COM701 in subjects with advanced malignancies.
Earlier detection of disease recurrence will enable greater treatment options and has strong potential to improve patient outcomes. This project is translational and has the potential to lead to future translational research opportunities, including interventional trials in which therapeutic escalation is offered at the early circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) molecular residual disease (MRD) detection timepoint. Ultimately, the integration of ctDNA into the clinical workflow has the potential to enhance cancer diagnosis, treatment, surveillance, and prognosis, and guide clinical decision-making in this era of personalized precision medicine.
Approximately 20-30 % of colon cancer patients who have no metastasis in lymph nodes after definitive colectomy have recurrence with distant metastasis. These recurrences could be due to missed occult tumor cells or micrometastasis. Detailed examination of all lymph nodes is expensive and time consuming. Sentinel lymph node mapping using Indocyanine green dye helps in identifying the lymph nodes which are most likely to harbour metastasis. These sentinel lymph nodes can be subsequently subjected to detailed pathologic examination and immunohistochemistry which increases the likelihood of identifying micrometastasis and occult tumor cells. Patients found to harbour such metastasis can be treated with additional chemotherapy after surgery. The aim of the study is to examine the feasibility of sentinel lymph node mapping using Indocyanine green dye in colon cancer and evaluate the upstaging rate in post-operative colon cancer patients who don't have metastatic lymph nodes on routine histopathology.
AIM:To evaluate the effectiveness of a therapeutic exercise program (PET) in cancer patients in improving the quality of life and the need for supervision by health professionals during the performance of same after 6 weeks of intervention. DESIGN: Randomized and controlled clinical trial, parallel groups with active control group. With masking of randomization, patient evaluation and analysis of the data. SUBJETS OF STUDY: 58 patients diagnosed with breast and colon cancer and treated up to 2 years later, both with surgery, chemotherapy and hormonal treatments (inhibitors of aromatase, tamoxifen). INTERVENTION: both groups the treatment will be a common work-based therapeutic exercise program aerobic, strength-resistance and self-stretching, in addition to a reinforcement in recommendations usual self-care. The study includes two phases, phase of supervised work and phase of tracing. One of the groups will be supervised in the realization of PET for a period of 6weeks and the other group will do it autonomously and without supervision. The patients will be followed for 1 year, with five blind evaluations: at the beginning of the study, after 6 weeks of intervention, 3, 6 and 12 months after the start of the study.MEASUREMENTS: Principal: Quality of life assessed with the questionnaire measured with the European questionnaire Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire C-30 (EORTC QLQ-30). Pre-post intervention measure, 3, 6 and 12 months. Secondary: Cancer-related fatigue evaluated with the Functional Assessment of scale Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue (FACIT-F). Pre-post Measurement intervention, 3, 6 and 12 months. Functional capacity measured with the Test 6 minutes walking test. Pre-post Measurement intervention, 3, 6 and 12 months. Valuation of the measured force with manual hydraulic dynamometer and 5- test repetition sit-to-stand. Pre-post intervention measure, 3, 6 and 12 months.COST: effectiveness and cost / incremental utility associated to the program wil be estimated.
A randomized control trial to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a patient educational platform (PEP) for patients with gastrointestinal malignancies undergoing active chemotherapy treatment.
The purpose of the trial is to identify the "most simple non-inferior of three different methods", placebo, laparoscopic assisted transverse abdominal plane block (L-TAP) and ultrasound guided TAP block (US-TAP), using postoperative opioid consumption as a measure of efficacy in patients undergoing elective minimally invasive colon surgery in an ERAS setting. Postoperative pain scores and length of stay (LOS) will also be measured. The simplicity of the three methods is ranked as: 1) placebo, 2) L-TAP and 3) US-TAP.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of NKG2D-based CAR-T cells infusion in the treatment of relapsed/refractory NKG2DL+ solid tumors.
The aim of this study is to investigate if the systematic implementation of pre-emptive geno- and phenotyping, and therefore a dose reduction based on the French guidelines and the literature during the first month of treatment, reduces grade 3 or greater toxicity in patients treated with 5-FU (5-fluorouracil) or capecitabine. Therefore, a monocentric, partial prospective and partial retrospective trail was designed.
