Filter by:Currently, adjuvant therapy is not recommended for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who received radical surgery. However, the recurrence rate is as high as 23.8%-58%, and the median time-to-recurrence is about 10.5 months. In patients who had residual tumor after surgery, evidence lacks for chemoradiation. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chemoradiation therapy in patients with recurrences after radical surgery or palliative surgery.
Esophageal cancer is a debilitating condition. The treatment involved is complex requiring a combination of chemotherapy and surgery in most cases. Complete removal of the tumor and the adjacent lymph nodes is of utmost importance in improving the survival. Lymph node yield following surgery helps in proper staging of the disease and is an important prognosticating variable. It is hypothesized that the lymph node yield following robotic esophagectomy is higher than that following thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy. The study aims to compare the short term oncological outcomes following robotic esophagectomy and thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy for carcinoma esophagus.
This is an open-label, multicenter study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of vactosertib in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic or locally advanced colorectal or gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma
This is a feasibility, randomised controlled trial (RCT) of a person-centred care planning intervention involving patients recently diagnosed with a poor prognosis cancer who are starting a palliative oncology treatment in a Scottish regional cancer centre.
Prospective observational study to evaluate the Quality of life based on standardized EORTC questionaires as well as toxicities, functional and oncological outcomes in patients treated with neoadjuvant or definitive chemoradiation for esophageal Cancer.
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(Neo-CRT) plus surgery has been regarded as a standard of care for patients with resectable locally advanced esophageal cancer. Many studies suggest that definitive Radiochemotherapy(CRT) has similar efficacy as neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy plus surgery for esophageal cancers who respond to chemoradiation. Herein, a single center prospective randomized phase Ⅲ multicenter clinical trial will be carried out to compare efficacy and safety of definitive radiochemotherapy versus neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy plus radical resection in patients who achieved clinical complete response (CCR) after neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy for resectable locally advanced esophageal cancer.
This trial studies the genetic analysis of blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer that has spread to other anatomic sites (advanced) or is no longer responding to treatment. Studying these samples in the laboratory may help doctors to learn how genes affect cancer and how they affect a person's response to treatment.
The study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the immunotherapies using anti-MUC1 CAR T cells and /or PD-1 knockout engineered T cells in the treatment of patients with advanced esophageal cancer.
the investigators randomly divide the eligible objects into two groups:1. objects in this group will first receive OE endoscopy observation and subsequent white light imaging(WLI) observation during oropharynx and hypopharynx; 2. objects in this group will first receive WLI observation and subsequent OE observation during oropharynx and hypopharynx. Then, the investigators will compare the detect rate of oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal superficial squamous cell carcinoma of two groups to find if OE endoscopy can improve the detect rate of oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal superficial squamous cell carcinoma in esophageal cancer patients.
This is a randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center phase III trial, comparing the efficacy and safety of SHR-1210 + paclitaxel + cisplatin vs placebo+paclitaxel +cisplatin as 1L therapy for advanced esophageal cancer patients in China. SHR-1210 is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody.
