Filter by:This clinical trial determines the feasibility of a multilevel approach to improve colorectal cancer screening within two rural regions of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center/University of Washington Consortium catchment area. The catchment area is the greater Puget Sound Region (13 counties). These rural counties have the highest overall rates of cancer incidence and mortality in the area; rural/small town residents in the catchment area had the lowest rates of meeting mammogram, Pap, and colorectal screening recommendations. This study involves observational data and questionnaire assessments to determine if an online version of the evidence-informed national colorectal cancer screening program, known as "Screen to Save (S2S)" and a fecal immunochemical test (FIT) kit distribution are acceptable and accessible to patients. FIT kits may help doctors find colorectal cancer sooner, when it may be easier to treat.
This is a first-in-human, Phase 1, open label, multicenter, multiple dose, dose escalation and dose expansion study intended to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and potential clinical benefit of PF-07209960, an anti-PD-1 targeting IL-15 fusion protein, in participants with selected locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors for whom no standard therapy is available, or would not be an appropriate option in the opinion of the participant and their treating physician, or participants who have refused standard therapy. The study contains 2 parts, single agent Dose Escalation (Part 1) to determine the recommended dose of PF-07209960, followed by Dose Expansion (Part 2) in selected tumor types at the recommended dose.
ONCR-177-101 is a phase 1, open-label, multi-center, dose escalation and expansion study of ONCR-177, an oncolytic Herpes Simplex Virus for intratumoral injection, alone and in combination with PD-1 blockade in adult subjects with advanced and/or refractory cutaneous, subcutaneous or metastatic nodal solid tumors or with Liver Metastases of Solid Tumors. The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), as well as to evaluate preliminary efficacy.
This phase II trial studies how well savolitinib works in treating patients with MET amplified colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Savolitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Background: Colorectal cancer is a common cancer in the Unites States (U.S.) It causes the second most cancer-related deaths. The drug avelumab and vaccine Ad-CEA together help the immune system fight cancer. Objective: To test if avelumab and Ad-CEA plus standard therapy treats colorectal cancer that has spread to other sites better than standard therapy alone. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with untreated colorectal cancer that has spread in the body Design: Participants will be screened with: Test to see if their cancer has a certain deficiency Blood, urine, and heart tests Scans Medical history Physical exam Tumor sample. This can be from a previous procedure. A small group of participants will get Ad-CEA and avelumab plus standard therapy. This is leucovorin calcium (folinic acid), fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) plus bevacizumab for up to 24 weeks then capecitabine plus bevacizumab. The others will have treatment in 2-week cycles. They will be Arm A or B: Arm A: FOLFOX and bevacizumab by intravenous (IV) days 1 and 2 for 12 cycles. After that, capecitabine by mouth twice a day and bevacizumab by IV on day 1. Arm B: Ad-CEA injection every 2-12 weeks. Avelumab by IV on day 1 of each cycle. FOLFOX and bevacizumab by IV days 2 and 3 for 12 cycles. Then, capecitabine by mouth twice a day and bevacizumab through IV on day 2. Participants will repeat screening tests during the study. Participants will be treated until their disease gets worse or they have bad side effects. Arm A participants can join Arm B. They will have a visit 4 5 weeks after they stop therapy.
Estimation of the concordance of Tc 99m localization in liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma using SPECT/CT imaging and abdominal FDG (PET)/CT imaging per subject.
Brain metastases are the most common intracranial malignancy occurring in 20-40% of all cancers, and the presence of CNS metastases is associated with a poor prognosis. As such, the median overall survival of patients with symptomatic brain lesions is a dismal 2-3 months regardless of tumor type. Because standard chemotherapy largely does not cross the blood brain barrier at a meaningful concentration, standard treatment is limited and usually involves surgical resection and/or stereotactic radiosurgery for isolated lesions and whole brain radiation for multiple lesions. Unfortunately, the median overall survival is only improved by about 6 months with this multimodality approach2, and there is a paucity of second-line therapies to treat recurrence. Furthermore, re-resection and re-radiation are often not feasible options due to concern for increasing complications or neurotoxicity, respectively. Thus, there is a dire clinical need for additional treatment options for this patient population. Checkpoint blockade therapy, in particular PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibition, has recently shown clinical efficacy in multiple types of solid tumors. The investigators propose to study the efficacy of checkpoint blockade therapy in patients with solid tumors and refractory/recurrent brain metastases. The investigators will assess the efficacy of MEDI4736, a novel PD-L1 inhibitory monoclonal antibody, in this study.
Conventional hand-stitching colostomy involves extensive hand-stitching by the surgeon. There are significant variations in the outcome of surgery due to differences in the suture techniques of surgeons. The use of a circular stapler in colostomy seems more rapid and efficient colostomy than the conventional methods.But all those reports are single center retrospective cohort study,no randomized controlled trials have been carried out so far.The aim of this study is to comparing the safety and efficiency of circular stapler-assisted colostomy with conventional hand-stitching colostomy in patients with colorectal carcinoma.
