Filter by:The goal of this study is to learn if the Mind Over Matter (MOM) Intervention, a 5-week group program, can help Black and African American women deal with the fears, worries and sadness that often accompany cancer diagnosis and treatment. The main question this study aims to answer is: • Whether the MOM Intervention is feasible and acceptable among Black and African American women. We would also like to find out if: - The MOM Intervention decreases anxiety, depression and physical symptom severity for Black and African American women. - The MOM Intervention is culturally and linguistically appropriate, and identify barriers, strengths, and areas of improvement. Participants will: - Attend a Pre-Program Orientation - Attend 5 weekly MOM Sessions - Complete 2 questionnaires (one will be given before the first MOM Session begins, and the other will be given after the last MOM Session) Participants also have the choice to attend an optional Focus Group, which will be offered after the last MOM Session. Please note, this entire Intervention will be offered online. There will be no in-person sessions or visits.
A Phase II Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Cadonilimab Combined With Fruquintinib and SBRT as A third-line and Posterior Line Treatment in Patients With MSS Colorectal Cancer
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate whether ctDNA methylation is a more precise indicator to guide postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in stage Ill colorectal cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether ctDNA methylation-guided escalation strategy is superior to standard treatment for stage III high-risk CRC patients. 2. Whether ctDNA methylation-guided de-escalation strategy is non-inferior to standard treatment for stage III low-risk CRC patients. 325 cases were included in the high-risk cohort (T4 and/or N2) and 665 cases were included in the low-risk cohort (T1-T3, N1). Then patients in each cohort were randomly assigned to ctDNA-guided treatment (ctDNA-guided group) and standard treatment (standard treatment group) in a ratio of 2:1. The standard treatment group and ctDNA-negative group in the high-risk cohort were treated with XELOX regimen for 6 months, and the ctDNA-positive group in the high-risk cohort was treated with cmFOLFOXIRI regimen for 6 months. The standard treatment group and the ctDNA-positive group in the low-risk cohort were treated with XELOX regimen for 3 months, while the ctDNA-negative group in the low-risk cohort did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy.
The scope of this research is to examine the acceptability and feasibility of a refined web-based intervention ("STOMA Care" app) by conducting a randomized pilot consisting of bladder and colorectal cancer patients scheduled for ostomy surgery at Mount Sinai Health System and their primary caregivers. This study aims to explore the impact of the app on stoma-related knowledge and beliefs, patient stoma-care skills and self-efficacy beliefs, and self-regulation and adaptation (e.g., distress and quality of life) among patients and their informal caregivers.
We reviewed the patient underwent colorectal surgery with anastomosis and identified patients with anastomotic leak. Then we started to figure out what blood investigation could be related to anastomotic leak.
This SafeHeal study is designed to assess the overall safety of the low anterior resection (LAR) standard of care cancer treatment by establishing a definition of major complications. The current literature on standard of care reports adverse events/complications but does not provide a single endpoint that can be used to compare the safety of LAR cancer treatment to alternative therapies or treatments. This study will allow for the establishment of a new single safety endpoint for LAR standard of care cancer treatment.
This study will help to determine the main clinical symptom differences between patients of different ages, discover the family genetic predisposition of patients of different ages, and obtain the differences in pathological characteristics of patients of different ages, so as to provide help and basis for more accurate and earlier prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer.
This observational study aims to assess the predictive value of postoperative circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) monitoring in evaluating the risk of recurrence in stage I-IV colorectal cancer patients. The study involves the collection of blood samples from patients who have undergone surgery for colorectal cancer. Sensitivity-enhanced molecular biology techniques are utilized to detect ctDNA in these samples. The correlation between ctDNA detection and the risk of recurrence is evaluated by analyzing patient follow-up data and clinical information. The findings of this study may contribute to the development of improved postoperative management strategies, such as identifying high-risk individuals and implementing additional treatment measures to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Currently, domestic and international research on dexmedetomidine as well as anxiety and depression is more focused on basic research. In terms of clinical research, dexmedetomidine is more often used in pediatrics, short surgeries, intensive care units, etc., for sedation and analgesia; while less research has been done for the relief of anxiety and depression. At present, on the one hand, the number of oncology patients is on the rise both at home and abroad, and on the other hand, anxiety and depression account for an increasing proportion of healthcare in the world. Tumor patients, as a high prevalence group of anxiety and depression, their prognosis and regression are also more complicated. Therefore, exploring the role of intranasal administration of dexmedetomidine in relieving perioperative anxiety and depression in oncology patients has a very strong practical basis and clinical significance.
This study will investigate whether short-term daily energy drink consumption results in an increase in hydrogen sulfide-producing bacteria in adults 18-40 years old.
