Filter by:This is a prospective study addressing the challenge of predicting disease progression and/or recurrence in patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal, pancreatobiliary, or esophagogastric cancer that are receiving anti-cancer therapy.
Esophagectomy serves as an exemplar of major operative trauma, with well-known risk of pulmonary, cardiac, anastomotic, and septic complications and the presence of postoperative complications after esophagectomies for cancer is associated with a reduced long-term survival. There is a paucity in the literature regarding postoperative renal outcomes after esophageal surgery, with a wide range of incidence. The investigators will conduct a historical cohort study aiming to evaluate the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing elective esophageal cancer surgery. Secondary, the investigators will assess the progression of the acute injury and the association with adverse pulmonary, cardiac, anastomotic, and septic events, as well as increase in hospital stay and mortality. The investigators will also identify risk factors associated with acute kidney injury occurrence.
This study is to establish a safe and tolerable dose and to investigate pharmacokinetics and the first clinical efficacy signals of M1231 as a single agent in participants with solid tumors (Part 1) and with metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (Part 2). Dose escalation will be followed by the dose expansion once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended dose for Expansion (RDE) has been defined.
A multicenter Italian retrospective study on COVID-19 pandemic condition and advanced Gastro - Intestinal Cancer. Are in Italy increased the new diagnosis of GI cancer in advanced stage in the 2020 compared with 2019, as a consequence of COVID-19?
The aim of this study is to investigate urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor (uPAR) microexpression in gastroesophageal cancer (adenocarcinomas) both qualitatively and semi-quantitatively and to evaluate if it offers a possibility for future imagining purposes.
In the Netherlands, the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is increasing. In addition, EAC has a dismal prognosis. Therefore, screening for Barrett's Esophagus (BE) has stimulated interest. Although BE is a known precursor of EAC, a minority of patients with EAC are known with a previous diagnosis of BE. A non-invasive screening tool, such as breath testing, could select patients at risk for BE, after which unsedated transnasal endoscopy (uTNE) can confirm or exclude the diagnosis. The objective is to determine the accuracy and acceptability of a non-invasive screening strategy i.e. breath testing followed by uTNE for BE and EAC.
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 is a prospective data recording study, all patients will receive standard medical care and no experimental interventions will be performed. All patients scheduled to undergo esophageal ESD from December 2018 to December 2021 as medically indicated will be considered for the study, Patients in whom esophageal ESD is considered as part of their standard medical care will be offered to participate in this study. The principle investigator who performing the procedure will also discuss the study with the subjects and ask them to sign a consent. If the patient agrees to participate, he/she will be given the informed consent form and allowed enough time to read it. Then if the patient agrees, he/she will sign the consent form. Data will be prospectively recorded according to the data collection form.
By using the M.A.D.I.T. methodology and the Dialogics science, SALVO Project aims to develop operational guidelines to support oncological target patients in the resumption of their daily post-operative activities. The research will implement an instrument for the purpose of measuring the health need of participants who are admitted to the surgical ward. Therefore, targeted interventions will be implemented with participants, and efficacy will be evaluated in order to define treatment guidelines. The principal aim of this study is to create a validated and replicable intervention model for supporting patients who undergone surgery for esophagus and gastro intestinal cancer.
This trial tests new methods and materials for the real-time chemotherapy-associated side effects monitoring support system (RT-CAMSS) in patients with gastrointestinal cancers undergoing chemotherapy. RT-CAMSS is a monitoring support system that provides patients with evidence-based information and side-effect management and coping skills, emotional support and validation, and proactive care via text messages and questionnaires as they undergo chemotherapy.
