Filter by:Gastrointestinal cancer like Gastric cancer and colorectal cancer are high-incidence tumors worldwide. Surgery is the only curable way. Perioperative treatment can improve the survival of patients. Microsatellite instability-high（MSI-H）are a special subtype of gastrointestinal tumors, accounting for about 15-22%. According to current research, patients with this type of gastrointestinal tumors cannot benefit from traditional perioperative chemotherapy, which directly affects the long-term survival of patients. Because patients with MSI-H have a unique tumor immune microenvironment, thus they are more likely to benefit from immunotherapy. Current studies have confirmed that the use of immunotherapy during palliative care can prolong the survival of patients with MSI-H. In the neoadjuvant treatment stage, according to the previous clinical practice of our center, the use of immunotherapy can make some patients achieve complete postoperative pathological remission. However, in the perioperative treatment stage, the value of immunotherapy is still lack of powerful clinical evidence. Based on this, our group intends to start an observational study to prospectively enroll patients with MSI-H gastrointestinal tumor using immunotherapy during the perioperative period.The primary endpoint is safety while survival outcomes as secondary endpoints. In order to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of immunotherapy during the perioperative treatment stage in MSI-H gastrointestinal cancer
This study collects information about the safety and effect of portal vein stenting in gastrointestinal cancer patients with portal vein stenosis. This study may help researchers learn how long the portal vein stays open and free from blockage and the effects of portal vein stenting on patients' overall well-being.
The objective of the study is to constrcut a noninvasive approach WL12 PET/CT to detect the PD-L1 expression of tumor lesions in patients with gastrointestinal tumors and to identify patients benefiting from anti-PD-1/L1 treatment.
The hospital care of patients with cancerous pathology is part of a multidisciplinary care path that includes many stages. The treatment conditions in this course vary depending on the reasons that led to suspect the existence of a cancerous pathology: accidental discovery, screening, warning signs (sometimes expressed in an acute form) or referral for treatment in charge after the diagnosis has already been made. As soon as the patient presents to the hospital, various expertises are mobilized to establish the diagnosis, carry out the extension assessment and assess the comorbidities and conditions that may have an impact on the choice of treatments. During this initial evaluation, each file is evaluated in a Multidisciplinary Consultation Meeting to define the optimal therapeutic strategy which will often include several stages involving surgery, radiotherapy, medical oncology (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, etc. hormone therapy), interventional radiology, and / or supportive oncological care (nutrition, pain treatment, correction of metabolic abnormalities, palliative care, etc.). This treatment path is considered to be very complex and the fluidity of its organization determines the processing times. The management of patients in a cancer department may vary depending on the organization specific to each hospital. The health crisis induced by the COVID-19 epidemic, associated with the containment measures put in place from March 19 to May 11, 2020, have limited the use of patients in hospitals, even for emergency activities. It has also led to a reorganization of scheduled activities within establishments, with a concentration of resources around unscheduled care, in particular COVID patients. In many establishments, the other activities were, for many, deprogrammed with postponed appointments. The impact of this epidemic on the hospital journey of patients with cancerous pathology is the subject of questions at the national level. The delays in diagnosis and treatment induced have possibly had an impact on the quality of the care and on the delays with, as a corollary, a possible loss of opportunity for the patient.
This is a prospective, open, phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a CDK4 / 6 inhibitor and a MEK inhibitor in the treatment of metastatic digestive system tumors
This study is an open, multi-center clinical trial, the purpose is to study the safety and preliminary efficacy of Donafenib combined with KN046 in subjects with Advanced Gastrointestinal Tumors.
This clinical study focused on patients with digestive system tumors resistant to PD-1 inhibitors, and explored the reversal resistance of epigenetic drugs (decitabine) and TKI drugs (anlotinib) in this part of patients.
This multicenter, prospective, interventional study aims to include 2000 gastroscopic procedures and investigate the relationship between procedure time and lesion detection rate in tertiary endoscopic centers in China. At the first stage, the researchers observe the actual procedure time of gastroscopies without affecting the natural behavior of endoscopists. At the second stage, a minimal time limit will be set for each procedure based on the observational results of the first stage. The primary study outcome is focal lesion detection rate. Secondary outcomes include detection rate of early upper GI cancer, biopsy rate and adverse event rate.
This is a Global Study of Neoadjuvant-Adjuvant Durvalumab or Placebo and FLOT Chemotherapy Followed by Adjuvant Durvalumab or Placebo in Patients with Resectable Gastric and Gastroesophageal Cancer (GC/GEJC) (MATTERHORN).
Emotional skills are the ability to use emotions cleverly in daily life. Good emotional skills are associated with better mental and physical health in healthy and clinical populations. However, to our knowledge, cancer patients have never benefited from an intervention aiming at increasing their emotional skills. Our goal was thus to design and test such an intervention. A prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted in esogastric and lung cancer patients after antineoplastic treatments. Forty-three patients are expected in each arm. The primary outcome is the change in emotional skills assessed using a patient-reported validated questionnaire between the start and two weeks after the end of the intervention and at 2-month follow-up. The experimental arm will have to follow three individual sessions on emotional skills (i.e. identification, understanding, expression and regulation of emotions) while the control arm will have to follow three sessions of relaxation. In each arm, the first session can be held face to face or over the phone and the last two sessions will be held over the phone. Patients have exercises to practice in between sessions.It is hypothesised that the experimental group will experience a greater increase in emotional skills than the control group.
