Filter by:In May of 2021, the United States Preventive Service Task Force (USPSTF) updated their colorectal cancer (CRC) screening guidelines by recommending screening at an earlier age for average-risk adults starting at the age of 45 years old (Grade B recommendation). This is in addition to their Grade A recommendations of continuing to screen average-risk adults ages 50-75 years old. UCLA Health previously implemented a fecal immunochemical test (FIT) outreach program wherein FIT kits are mailed to average-risk patients overdue for CRC screening twice annually to promote screening uptake. As the investigators health system aims to screen the newly eligible population of average-risk patients between the ages of 45-49, the investigators proposed randomized controlled trial is aimed to determine the most effective patient outreach approach to maximize screening uptake within this age-group.
This is a first-in-human multi-center study which will be conducted in advanced malignant solid tumors patients. The solid tumor type is limited to melanoma, colorectal, non-small-cell lung, and thyroid cancer with positive BRAF V600 mutation. This study is divided into three stages: Phase Ia: a dose-escalation phase of XP-102; Phase Ib: a dose-escalation and sample size expansion phase of XP-102 plus trametinib; Phase IIa: an expansion phase of XP-102 plus trametinib.
The study aims to evaluate the impact of promoting advice on the latest evidence-based diet and lifestyle recommendations for cancer prevention at colorectal cancer (CRC) screening among individuals who may be at higher risk for developing CRC. The overall aim of this LIFE-SCREEN pilot study is to test the trial methods and procedures to be used in the LIFE-SCREEN cluster randomized RCT, in order to discover obstacles and problems prior to the main RCT so that corrective actions can be taken to improve the research process. The patients (n=40) will be recruited at the Centre Léon Bérard and at the Hôpital Edouard Herriot at the time of CRC screening. After inclusion, the intervention material (documents explaining the strategies to achieve and maintain recommended behaviours as part of a healthier lifestyle) may be given to the patient during the pre-colonoscopy consultation and/or at the post-colonoscopy visit. Weight, height and blood pressure will be measured during the pre-colonoscopy consultation. Patients will be invited to complete a baseline questionnaire to collect information on their lifestyle, state of health and socio-demographic status. Approximately four to six weeks after, patients will also be asked to complete an evaluation questionnaire asking for their opinion on this material and the procedures. Focus groups with available and willing participants and hospital staff will be organized at the end of the pilot phase recruitment, to gather additional information on the intervention procedures. In addition, all hospital staff will be asked to complete an assessment questionnaire. Biological samples will then also be collected to test the objective baseline measure of nutritional changes used in the RCT. In order to assess the feasibility and the acceptability of urine, faecal and blood sample collection in this population, the first ten participants recruited (n=10) will be given the option to refuse one or more of the biological sample collections (phase I). Participants will also be asked to complete a questionnaire to provide information on their opinion and willingness to donate biological samples. This assessment questionnaire will allow us to refine the strategies for the other 30 participants (phase II). In this phase II, biological samples will be compulsory (phase IIa) or optional (phase IIb) for all 30 participants.
This study is a retrospective, multicenter clinical study. The main objective is to analyze the risk factors affecting the recurrence of colorectal cancer patients with liver metastases who received radiofrequency/microwave ablation. Finally, we will construct a recurrence risk prediction model based on the risk factors and validated the model.
This study was designed to investigate the efficacy of flow cytometry to accurately identify between normal and cancer cells in colon epithelium in humans diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
This is a Phase 1/2, first-in-human, open-label, dose escalation and dose-expansion study of E-602, administered alone and in combination with cemiplimab.
The primary objective of the study is to estimate the antitumor efficacy of nanrilkefusp alfa in combination with pembrolizumab in selected tumors.
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the EarlyTect® CRC test for detecting CRC, using colonoscopy as the reference method. The secondary objective is to compare the clinical performance of EarlyTect® CRC test with a commercially available Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT), with respect to CRC. By histopathological examination, lesions identified during colonoscopy will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by histological examination.
This feasibility (small) study aims to see if it is possible to run a large study looking at the effect of lidocaine on large bowel cancer recurrence after surgery in the NHS hospitals.
Delayed bleeding is the most frequent (5 to 15%) and challenging complication after large colorectal polypectomy. Different preventive treatments, such as the prophylactic use of clips, have been tried to prevent the occurrence of delayed bleeding, but to date, no treatment has clearly shown its effectiveness. In addition, preventive hemostasis with clips is difficult and costly. A newly developed endoscopic hemostatic powder generating gelation effect (Nexpowder) may be an effective alternative to prevent post polypectomy bleeding in patients treated by endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for large superficial colorectal lesions.
