Filter by:This is a proof-of-concept study designed to investigate HER3-DXd monotherapy in locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study is enrolling cohorts of participants with melanoma [cutaneous/acral], squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHN), and HER2-negative gastric cancerovarian carcinoma, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, bladder cancer, esophageal carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, and prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study to find out whether adding trastuzumab and pembrolizumab to standard chemotherapy is an effective treatment for resectable HER2+ esophagogastric cancer.
The study focuses on the scientific and clinical evaluation of online adaptive radiotherapy (ART) using the Varian/SHS ETHOS treatment system. In this study, radiation treatment plans are dynamically adjusted on a daily basis over several weeks of therapy to account for anatomical shifts in either the tumour or adjacent normal tissue - a capability that has been difficult to achieve due to technical limitations. With the ETHOS accelerator, such real-time adjustments can be made based on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). This is a prospective observational study with the primary objective of investigating the feasibility and acceptability of performing ART with ETHOS for different tumour entities. The study will also evaluate the feasibility of integrating multi-parametric data sets into the ART workflow, such as standardised electronic feedback on treatment toxicity from both patients (ePROMS) and physicians (ePRT).
This is a phase 2 pragmatic study that evaluates the clinical benefit of continuing systemic therapy with the addition of locally ablative therapies for oligo-progressive solid tumors as the primary objective. The primary outcome measure is the time to treatment failure (defined as time to change in systemic failure or permanent discontinuation of therapy) following locally ablative therapy.
This is a retrospective study assessing the effectiveness of endoscopic pyloromyotomy in patients suffering from gastroparesis and/or symptoms of delayed gastric emptying after esophagectomy with gastric pull-through. Several, mainly European, centres which perform G-POEM on a routine basis will be asked to participate. The main reason to assess the effectiveness of G-POEM in this specific subgroup of patients is the fact this specific subgroup of patients is often being excluded from trials assessing efficacy and safety of G-POEM. The participating centres will be asked to report appropriate patients among those who have undergone G-POEM since 2015 till December 2023. Patients fulfilling inclusion and not having exclusion criteria will be included into the analysis; the minimum follow-up is set to 6 months after G-POEM. The main outcome is the symptomatic response at 6, 12 and 24 months (measured by GCSI score). Other endpoints will be change in other symptoms not covered by GCSI, change in gastric emptying rate and safety of the procedure. For each enrolled patient a case report form (CRF) will be filled in and delivered to the leading centre via an online database or in other forms if preferred by the respective centres. The leading centre will be responsible for data collection and analysis.
This study was conducted in elderly (≥70 years old) patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Aim to find the difference in efficacy and safety between tirilizumab combined with concurrent chemoradiation and standard concurrent chemoradiation. Concurrent chemoradiation is the standard treatment for elderly esophageal cancer. Tirelizumab is the first-line and second-line standard treatment for advanced esophageal squamous carcinoma. However, the effect of tirilizumab combined with concurrent chemoradiation for elder with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is unkown. In the study, the investigators plan to enroll 136 elderly subjects with locally advanced esophageal cancer from five hospitals in China. The enrolled patients will be randomly divided into two groups: tirilizumab combined with concurrent chemoradiation group (Tislelizumab + radiotherapy + tigio) and concurrent chemoradiation group (radiotherapy + tigio). The treatment efficiency and safety will be evaluated.
This multi-site, Phase 1/2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype, and the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 when given with select SOC for the treatment of solid tumor patients with radiographically confirmed uncontrolled brain metastasis. The study will have three phases, Phase 1, Phase 2a and Phase 2b.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the use of CPAP in patients with esophgaeal cancer undergoing radiotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - does use of CPAP decrease exposure of normal lung to radiation? - does use of CPAP decrease exposure of normal heart to radiation? Participants will undergo simulation twice: - with CPAP - without CPAP
The goal of this research study is to investigate the feasibility of implementing a prehabilitation program that aims to improve a patient's physical, nutritional, and sleep health before surgery in an older, at-risk group with esophageal cancer.
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is unsatisfactory in distinguishing between T1a and T1b stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Consequently, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend endoscopic resection (ER) as a diagnostic tool for substaging T1 stage ESCC. However, as an invasive approach, diagnostic ER is not an optimal approach especially for T1b cases as most of them might not be fully cured by ER. It is necessary to develop reliable and less invasive methods to distinguish between T1a and T1b stage ESCC. In our previous unicentral trial, we found that submucosal saline injection (SSI) significantly improved the diagnostic accuracy of EUS in differentiating between T1a and T1b stage ESCC. It can be used as an alternative to diagnostic ER for preoperative substaging T1 stage ESCC cases in remote regions where few endoscopists are able to perform diagnostic ER. The use of EUS and SSI would help T1b stage patients avoid invasive diagnostic ER. Therefore, we aim to conduct a multi-center clinical trail to examine whether SSI can improve traditional EUS accuracy in distinguishing between T1a and T1b stage ESCC.
