Filter by:This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of azenosertib in combination with trastuzumab deruxtecan in treating patients with HER2-positive and cyclin E amplified gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer and other HER2-positive solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic), or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Azenosertib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It inhibits a protein called Wee1. Inhibition of the Wee1 protein can make tumor cells more vulnerable to chemotherapy drugs, leading to tumor cell death. Trastuzumab deruxtecan is in a class of medications called antibody-drug conjugates. It is composed of a monoclonal antibody, called trastuzumab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called deruxtecan. Trastuzumab attaches to HER2 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers deruxtecan to kill them. Giving azenosertib in combination with trastuzumab deruxtecan may be safe, tolerable, and/or more effective in treating patients with locally advanced, metastatic, or unresectable HER2-positive gastric, gastroesophageal junction, or other solid tumors, compared to just trastuzumab deruxtecan alone.
Despite multimodal therapy, patients with esophageal cancer have poor prognosis with 5-year overall survival around 25%. Considering tumor-related death as main reason for high mortality rate in those patients, treatment-related cardio-pulmonary toxicities could also play a role in this regard. Online adaptive radiotherapy offers the possibility for daily re-planning and therefore helps radiation oncologists to better spare the organs at risk and reduce radiation-induced toxicity. Tha aim of ARTEC is to assess the pulmonary toxicity in patients with esophageal cancer treated with online adaptive radiotherapy.
Research indicates that individuals diagnosed with lung or esophageal cancer who enter treatment with higher functional capacities, improved body composition, and better nutrition status tend to experience better outcomes and a higher quality of life. The primary objective of a prehabilitation health coaching program is to enhance the overall health and well-being of patients before they undergo major surgery.This personalized 8-week program encompasses elements such as nutrition, smoking cessation, sleep hygiene, and movement, equipping participants with the knowledge and tools needed to adopt healthier lifestyles.
This study is a Single Arm, Prospective, Exploratory, Single Center Phase II Clinical Study to evaluate the effectiveness of the combination of Serplulimab and Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer who cannot be treated surgically.Subjects can be enrolled into this study only if they meet inclusion criteria and do not meet exclusion criteria.
A single-arm, open-label early-stage exploratory clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Claudin 18.2-Targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cells in subjects with gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the sensitivity of CYBRID Score for predicting in-vivo clinical response based on surgical response or RECIST 1.1 for neoadjuvant and locally advanced/metastatic patients, respectively. The secondary purposes is to determine the sensitivity of the CYBRID Score for predicting in-vivo clinical response based on surgical response or RECIST 1.1 for neoadjuvant and locally advanced/metastatic patients, respectively.
Analyze the correlation between the conformity of the anatomy (based on endoscopic examination) and postoperative anastomotic fistula and anastomotic stenosis; establish an anastomotic classification; and construct a predictive model combined with perioperative-related test indicators to provide more accurate risk assessment for clinical practice. Analyze the natural recovery process of postoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in esophageal cancer by tracking vocal cord movement (based on endoscopic examination) and hoarseness symptoms; combined with perioperative related surgical and laboratory indicators, identify the relevant risk factors associated with delayed recovery of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.
The goal of this survey is to investigate the participants' preference for a specific screening/diagnostic tool to detect and assess gastro-esophageal cancer. The main question it aims to answer are: - Which diagnostic modality is preferred by patients and the general population? - Which features of the diagnostic test are most detrimental in the decision-making for one or the other modality? - Are geographical differences present in regard to the preference for a diagnostic modality? Participants will be asked to complete a survey of 20-25min, including a brief intake regarding their socio-economic status. This approach will allow us to correct for confounding factors.
The goal of this minimally invasive interventional study is to learn if oncometabolic biomarkers, detected in the exhaled breath and blood can identify early-stage gastro-oesophageal cancer in patient at risk for gastro-oesophageal cancer. The main questions this study aims to answer: Are oncometabolites proficient and reproducible enough to function as diagnostic biomarkers? Can these biomarkers identify early-stage gastro-esophageal cancer? Researchers will compare participants with gastro-oesophageal cancer to healthy controls and participants with Barrett's esophagus to detect meaningful differences between the groups. Participants will provide a breath and blood sample during their routine standard of care visits.
This is a retrospective analysis to assess if high-volume hospital facilities experience greater or lesser rates of incidence in patients with esophageal cancer than low-volume facilities.
