Filter by:This is a community-based study requiring participant-self-enrollment, that can help to increase the rates of genetic testing among the family members of people who have been diagnosed with a hereditary cancer syndrome. The two main factors in this study are the IGNITE-TX intervention (website and navigator) and the free genetic counseling and testing. The IGNITE-TX Intervention is an innovative multi-modal intervention, with two components: a) interactive web "IGNITE-TX Hub" and b) genetic family navigators.
The long-term study objective is to develop optimized nutritional therapies for surgery and test them in clinical practice. This pilot study will test a microbiome-optimization diet in colorectal cancer surgery patients. The study hypothesizes that the Bacterial Intestinal Gut Modification Around Cancer Surgery (BIG MACS) Diet will provide participants with increased microbiota accessible carbohydrates (MACs) to support the microbiome and improve outcomes.
Patients with gastric or colon cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis will receive a biopsy of the tumor during their primary curative surgery. The operation is performed according to standard and includes resection of the primary tumor and any metastases and followed by HIPEC (Intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemoperfusion) according to the respective hospital standard. Organoid cultures from the biopsies are established in the research laboratory. Various chemotherapeutic agents are tested on these tumor organoids in the laboratory and the tumor organoids are analyzed in detail with regard to genetic alterations in order to find alterations that can be addressed, if necessary, by means of targeted drugs against peritoneal carcinomatosis.
Adult patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery were enrolled. Anxiety before the operation was evaluated by The State Anxiety Inventory (S-AI). Logistics regression would be used for identifying the independent factors of preoperative anxiety and prediction model would be established.
The purpose of the study is to determine if short-term outcomes of colon resections after full bowel preparation (mechanical bowel preparation plus oral antibiotics) are superior to colon resections with no bowel preparation.
This study is a single-arm, open-label, dose-escalating + dose-expansion clinical study, aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CEA-targeted CAR-T cell preparations, and to preliminarily observe the study drug in CEA-positive advanced malignant tumors. The pharmacokinetic characteristics of CAR-T cell preparations for the treatment of patients with CEA-positive advanced malignancies were obtained and the recommended dose and infusion schedule.
This study is a prospective, open-label, randomized phase 3 clinical trial. It aims to investigate if the early introduction of intensified chemotherapy (3 months of modified FOLFIRINOX) improves the 3-year disease-free survival rate compared to standard treatment (FOLFOX/CAPOX for an additional three months to complete six months of standard adjuvant chemotherapy) in patients with stage 2-3 colon cancer in whom ctDNA MRD in the part 1 study remained positive during adjuvant FOLFOX/CAPOX chemotherapy
The IDEA study classified stage III colon cancer into low-risk (T1-3/N1) and high-risk patients (T4 or N2) according to TNM stage. The results showed that for some low-risk patients, chemotherapy could be reduced without survival loss. In recent years, circulating tumor DNA had achieved encouraging results in monitoring recurrence and metastasis after surgery, and has potential clinical application value. Postoperative ctDNA is also considered as a marker of increased risk of recurrence for stage I-III colon cancer and can provide predictive information for decision making on adjuvant treatment. The results of GERCOR-PRODIGE, concomitant study of IDEA-FRANCE, showed that in the high-risk group, the patients with ctDNA positive and receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for 6 months had similar prognosis as the patients with ctDNA negative and receiving chemotherapy for 3 months; in the low-risk group, the patients with ctDNA positive but receiving chemotherapy for 3 months had worst prognosis, and the prognosis of patients with ctDNA negative chemotherapy for 3 months and 6 months and ctDNA positive chemotherapy for 6 months were similar. This indicates that risk stratification can be further performed according to the results of ctDNA after clinical pathological staging. Pathological staging is still an important decision-making factor for chemotherapy. It is not reliable to the chemotherapy decision making just based on ctDNA and abandoning clinical staging. Therefore, a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled clinical trial was designed aimed to investigate circulating tumor DNA guided adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer. In this study, all the patients are divided into high-risk group and low-risk group according to the postoperative pathology. Patients in each group were randomized to different treatment schedule according to the results of ctDNA.
This is a multi-center, randomized trial investigating the use of PrehabPal web app versus a written surgery prehabilitation instructions among individuals aged 65 years and older preparing for colon cancer surgery. PrehabPal is a web app designed with, and for, older adults preparing for surgery at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). This app has the potential to fill a crucial clinical gap for older cancer patients by designing an individualized prehabilitation program and providing prehabilitation coaching.
AIO-KRK-0420 NeoBRAF is a single arm, multicenter, phase II trial with neoadjuvant encorafenib, binimetinib and cetuximab for patients with BRAF V600E mutated/pMMR localized colorectal cancer.
