Filter by:This is a phase I clinical trial assessing the safety and recommended phase II dose of cabozantinib in combination with trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS102) in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma (mCRC).
AIMS To identify the underlying mechanism by which Vitamin D reduces colorectal cancer risk. OBJECTIVES To demonstrate the effects of vitamin D supplementation on serum vitamin D levels. To demonstrate dynamic changes in gene expression in response to vitamin D. To demonstrate the mechanism underlying the gene-environment interaction of vitamin D, susceptibility genetic variants (risk genes) and colorectal cancer.
This project seeks to identify DNA-adducts in colon tissue from different groups of patients with CRC scheduled for complete or partial colon resections. Other patients scheduled for resection of the colon serve as controls. In addition, surrogate samples such as white blood cells are investigated for the presense of adducts while blood plasma and urine are investigated for the presense of DNA-repair products.
In this translational research study, Formalin-Fixed-Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue blocks from patients with early-stage (II-III) colorectal cancer will be assessed for a comprehensive cancer gene panel from NIPD Genetics (https://www.nipd.com/) targeting regions in 37 clinically relevant cancer genes. The colorectal cancer panel includes an extended list of clinically relevant genes, designed to target clinically actionable and clinically significant mutations that will provide physicians with genetic information regarding a) prediction of the patient's response to targeted therapy, b) prognosis, that is, prediction of clinical outcome, c) diagnosis and molecular classification of colorectal cancer.
In a cluster-randomized study compare if feedback from two computerized feedback systems doing a colonoscopy (CoPS and CoRS) can improve the adenoma detection rate and decrease patient discomfort.
A dose titration study and a combined superiority registry-based open-label randomized control trial is planned to answer the trial objectives. The study will be registry-based to allow simpler and more comprehensive follow-up. Patients with colorectal cancer will be treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) together with either standard oxaliplatin HIPEC (the control for the efficacy study) or oxaliplatin/irinotecan HIPEC in combination with 5-FU 24-hour EPIC. The 5-FU will be administered postoperatively when the abdomen is completely sutured. The drug is divided equally into 2 injections of 200 ml each and injected through two abdominal drains that are clamped for 16 hours. For dose escalation, the titration groups (á 3 or 6 patients) are followed for 30 days postoperatively after which the Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will determine whether or not to increase the 5-FU dose for the following group of patients. To study efficacy, randomization is performed intraoperatively. The patient is followed up postoperatively for a total of 3 years for the secondary endpoints which may be extended by the study committee to 5 years. Since the trial is registry based, the long-term follow-up does not require separate eCRF evaluations. These evaluations can be automatically retrieved from the registry - both recurrence data, quality of life, and morbidity data. Some specific eCRF evaluations will be integrated as a separate study part of the HIPEC registry, such as inclusion/exclusion criteria and adverse event reporting (including SUSAR reporting).
A prospective, multi-center, phase II study of 21 patients to evaluate the efficacy of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor, Cetuximab in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) harboring Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC), tumor protein p53 (TP53) and RAS mutations.
This is a Phase 1 study to assess the safety and efficacy of ELI-002 immunotherapy (a lipid-conjugated immune-stimulatory oligonucleotide [Amph-CpG-7909] plus a mixture of lipid-conjugated peptide-based antigens [Amph-Peptides]) as adjuvant treatment of minimal residual disease (MRD) in subjects with KRAS/neuroblastoma ras viral oncogene homolog (NRAS) mutated PDAC or other solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to understand best strategies for engaging high risk populations in a primary care setting to improved adherence to colorectal cancer screening guidelines. The results will be used to identify best practices that are scalable to other high-risk populations who are due or overdue for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.
This study is a prospective, randomized, comparative clinical trial conducted by Wuhan Union Hospital and aim to compare the therapeutic effects of Mitomycin and Lobaplatin in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer patients with radical surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy
