Filter by:Anesthetic method was reported to have an impact on postoperative long-term outcome in cancer patients. In this study, we will investigate the effect of different anesthetic methods on NK cell activity, cytokine response and postoperative outcome in colorectal cancer patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC. We will compare propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with balanced anesthesia to determine the effect of propofol, inhalation agent, and opioid on tumor genesis, recurrence, NK cell activity, cytokine response, and postoperative outcome.
To measure the level of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the blood of colorectal cancer patients after 6 months of receiving therapy with regorafenib and XmAb20717 (also known as vudalimab). ctDNA is genetic material from tumor cells that can be found and measured in the blood
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether there is a correlation between the intestinal side effects of chemotherapy treatment and the expression/activity profiles of glucuronidase enzymes in the stool microbiome of the target patient population.
This is aPhase II Study of Leronlimab (PRO 140) in combination with Regorafenib in Patients with CCR5+, Microsatellite Stable (MSS), Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC)
This originated as an observational study of Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) patients with a history of adenoma diagnosed by colonoscopy who received a subsequent surveillance colonoscopy between 2014 and 2019. The original goal of the study was to develop a risk prediction model that would help identify patients at highest risk for a diagnosis of advanced neoplasia (colorectal cancer and/or advanced adenoma) at or within 6 months following their surveillance colonoscopy. Candidate predictors of interest included patient demographics, medical history, and details related to the index colonoscopy. The investigators are now at the implementation stage and applying the risk prediction model to patients awaiting surveillance colonoscopy at select KPNC service areas to help identify those at highest risk for colorectal cancer based on their risk scores.
The purpose of this study is to use the SignateraTm assay created from rectal tumor biopsies to monitor participants' blood for fragments of DNA shed by tumor cells. The tumor DNA fragments are referred to as circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA for short.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of a D-dimer based protocol to screen for thrombotic events in colorectal surgical patients. This study is unique because of the multistage screening process for DVT's using a standardized D-dimer testing methodology and ultrasound that will take place throughout the preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative processes. The data collected from this screening study will help establish the baseline DVT rates in UTMB's colorectal surgical patients before and after surgery. Additionally, the data from this study can help determine if a D-dimer blood test has predictive value in UTMB's colorectal surgical patient population. This study may also provide preliminary evidence for further research regarding the adjustment of D-dimer cutoff values. Specifically for patient subsets such as surgical colorectal patients with a moderate pretest probability and clinical conditions associated with low test specificity
Study to determine the feasibility of Sentinel Lymph Node (SLN) mapping using novel magnetic tracers (FerroTrace) and indocyanine green (ICG) for colorectal cancer; and to evaluate safety by assessing short term toxicity associated with colonoscopic peritumoral injection of novel magnetic nanoparticles (FerroTrace) and ICG for colorectal cancer.
This trial studies how well a magnetic resonance imaging technique called Displacement Encoding with Stimulated Echo (DENSE) works in detecting chemotherapy-related liver injury in patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and can be removed by surgery. Researchers want to learn if the DENSE technique improves the standard MRI method.
This study is aiming to enroll 90 patients with genetically confirmed Lynch Syndrome (LS) from Geisinger's High Risk Colorectal Cancer Clinic (HRC). Upon enrollment in the study, a Cologuard test will be ordered and the results will be blinded until data analysis. Patients enrolled in the study will also undergo a colonoscopy as part of their routine HRC visit.
