Filter by:The T-REX study aims to clarify the actual status of metastatic lymph node (LN) distribution in colon cancer and provide reliable evidence regarding the optimal length of bowel resection and the extent of central lymph node dissection in colon cancer surgery.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if patient satisfaction with propofol is better than with non-propofol anesthesia for outpatient colonoscopies.
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and postoperative delirium occurs mainly in aged patients. POCD and POD may increase the mortality and morbidity. However, the mechanism of POCD is not clear yet and no effective therapy method was proved. According to previous study, the neuroinflammation is the main reason both for POCD and POD. Minocycline is a tetracycline derivative. Due to it's lipophilic structure, it is easy to pass through blood brain barrier and attenuate neuroinflammation. It's neuroprotective effects has been proven in many experimental animal models such as Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease and Parkinson's syndrome. In present study, the investigators hypothesized that minocycline would attenuate the incidence of POCD and POD in the aged patients.
A prospective Randomized Clinical Trial to investigate the Effect ofPeri-operative Chemotherapy VS Postoperative Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Colon Cancer With Resectable Liver Metastasis
This will be a randomized, controlled pilot trial of patients with histological documentation of primary colon or rectal adenocarcinoma with resectable cancer, who have not received any treatments for cancer. If patient is a candidate for surgical resection, with no planned neoadjuvant chemotherapy, then the patient is eligible. All eligible subjects will be consented prior to surgery.
The aim of this placebo-controlled randomized study is to evaluate the effects of Melatonin 1mg/Zn 30% VNR/Mg 100% VNR (food supplement) in the management on sleep quality and mood alteration in cancer patients
A randomized controlled clinical trial to compare the short and long outcomes of Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with postoperative chemotherapy in patients with resectable locally advanced colon cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer death and its' incidence is rising in most European countries. Colonoscopy has been shown to reduce CRC incidence, however its effectiveness depends on the sensitivity to detect pre-malignant lesions. Our aim is to evaluate narrow band imaging (NBI) during colonoscopy and serum miRNAs as novel tools for the early detection of colonic sessile serrated lesions (SSL). The investigators will perform a multicenter-randomized-controlled-trial to study the role of NBI in SSL detection.
Altered quality of life in patients with stage III or IV colon cancer is well known. At their sides, their spouse/partner must also cope with the suffering caused by the disease and the upheavals that it engenders, with the treatments, in the organization of their everyday life. The physical, emotional, social and financial impact of cancer in general and its treatment on care-givers has already been studied. However, there are no data concerning the "objective burden", that is to say the nature and the magnitude of the care weighing on the spouse of persons with colon cancer. Objective is to develop and validate a questionnaire that can be completed by the spouse/partner of patients with stage III or IV colon cancer so as to evaluate the burden of the disease in everyday life. It will allow medico‐social professionals to identify spouses/partners in difficulty and the needs of patients so as to offer the best support.
Unmask Trial aims to evaluate the Kappa concordance between immunochemistry and molecular biology to detecting cancer cells in sentinel lymph node in patients undergoing colectomy for non metastatic colon cancer.
