Filter by:The purpose of this Phase I study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and safety profile of NBTXR3 activated by radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma. NBTXR3 is a drug that when activated by radiation therapy, may cause targeted destruction of cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, capecitabine, docetaxel, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving NBTXR3 activated by radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy may help control the disease.
This multicenter study aims to include 15000 participants undergoing screening upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and establish a risk prediction model for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and esophagogastric junctional (EGJ) adenocarcinoma in high-risk areas. The prediction model will be built based on epidemiological and cytological features, acquired from the esophageal sponge cytology test. The primary study outcome is the diagnostic performance of the model to detect high-grade lesions (including carcinoma and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia) of the esophagus and EGJ. Secondary outcomes include the number needed to screen, and dignostic performance of cytologist under AI assistance and abnornal cell count.
This clinical trial seeks to learn if a yoga program can improve physical performance, quality of life and symptom burden in cancer patients who are undergoing radiation therapy, and their partners. Taking part in yoga or stretching sessions may lower distress, improve quality of life, and/or may improve sleep and fatigue for cancer patients and their caregivers.
This is a single-arm, multicenter, phase 2 study to assess the efficacy and safety of Toripalimab Injection (JS001) in patients with advanced recurrent or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who have failed at least 2 prior lines of therapy and are positive for specific markers. Patients who meet the requirements will be treated with Toripalimab injection 240 mg once every 3 weeks (q3w) until disease progression based on imaging according to RECIST 1.1 criteria judged by the investigator, or intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of informed consent, or withdrawal of treatment judged by the investigator, or voluntarydiscontinuation of treatment by the patient with CR of more than 6 months, or up to 2 years of treatment for JS001, whichever occurs first. For the case that the patient shows disease progression on imaging according to RECIST 1.1, as long as the investigator judges that the patient can still benefit from continued medication, the treatment with Toripalimab Injection can be continued until the progression on imaging assessed by the investigator for the second time. The clinical benefit is based on the results of comprehensive assessment by the investigator in combination with imaging findings and clinical condition when the patient has no intolerable toxicity or the symptoms worsen due to disease progression. Tumor assessments are performed at screening (as the baseline), every 6 weeks from the first dose in the first year, and every 9 weeks from the second year until radiologically documented progressive disease (PD), or second disease progression judged by the investigator (for patients with disease progression shown by first imaging, but who can continue treatment judged by the investigator), or withdrawal of informed consent by the patient, or loss to follow-up, or start of a new anti-tumor therapy, or the termination of the study. If a patient withdraws from the study for reasons other than disease progression (including due to the AE or because the treatment interval is beyond the window) and no disease progression occurs at the time of withdrawal, radiographic assessments should be continued until disease progression, death, or start of a new anti-tumor therapy. Patient medication management is based on the investigator's tumor assessment.
The outcome of irresectable oesophaguscancer is poor, despite the fact that curative treatment with definitive chemoradiation is possible. The outcome of treatment can possibly be improved by combining chemoradiation with immunotherapy such as bintrafusp alfa, a combined TGF-β and PD-L1 inhibitor. In this study investigators investigate the feasibility of combining bintrafusp alfa with definitive chemoradiation in patients with irresectable squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus.
The main purposes of the dose escalation part of this study is to determine the following in participants with gastric or gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) or esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC): - Safety and tolerability of NT-I7 in combination with nivolumab - Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) The main purposes of Phase 2 of this study is to make a preliminary assessment of the antitumor activity and long-term survival of NT-I7 in combination with nivolumab in participants with gastric or GEJ or EAC. Note, this trial was intended to be a Phase 1/2 trial (but the trial never moved forward to Phase 2).
An open, multicenter, phase Ib/II study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of CT041 autologous CAR T-cell injection in patients with advanced gastric/ gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma and pancreatic cancer
Prehabilitation utilizes the preoperative period to prevent or attenuate the treatment-related functional decline and its consequences. This project aims at testing feasibility and effectiveness of multimodal prehabilitation in esophageal cancer care.
This is a prospective cohort study designed to evaluate the treatment effect as well as predictive and prognostic factors with special emphasis on the clinical utility of ctDNA in plasma in patients with gastroesophageal cancer. Patients with gastroesophageal cancer are included in 5 separate cohorts scheduled for - Surgical resection + perioperative chemotherapy (cohort 1) - Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgical resection (cohort 2) - Definitive chemoradiotherapy with curative intent (cohort 3) - Systemic therapy with the intent to prolong survival (cohort 4) - Palliative treatment without the use of chemotherapy (cohort 5)
This study wants to focus on Carcinoma detection rates with blue laser imaging (BLI) for participants with head-neck cancer who need a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). BLI is a new imaging technique that can easily be used within a standard gastroscopy.
