Filter by:The purpose of this research is to compare the amount and quality of tissue obtained by EUS-FNB when the device is flushed with an anticoagulant or "blood thinner" vs. saline a salt water solution as well as the use of a microsieve in order for the doctor to look at the tissue to check the acceptability of the specimens before sending for analysis. You will be randomly assigned (like a flip of a coin) to have either the blood thinner or the salt water solution placed within the needle being used to sample your abdominal tumor and to have either a sieve used or not. You will be one of 42 participants enrolled in this data collection study which includes 1 sites in the United States.
The aim of this single center, single arm and prospective study is to explore the safety and efficacy of tumor antigen-sensitized DC vaccine in postoperative adjuvant treatment of esophageal cancer.
The regimen of paclitaxel+cisplatin+TQB2450 injection combined or not combined with anlotinib is the first-line treatment of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Take PFS as the main evaluation index, the purpose is to evaluate its effectiveness and safety
The primary objective of this study, sponsored by Travera in Massachusetts, is to validate whether the mass response biomarker has potential to predict response of patients to specific therapies or therapeutic combinations using isolated tumor cells from varying cancers and biopsy formats.
Efficacy and Safety of Anlotinib combined with PD-1 inhibitors as 2 or more lines treatment for Heavily Pretreated Patients With Advanced, Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Esophagus.
Real World Data (RWD) obtained from real clinical sites is data obtained after administering a drug to patients with different characteristics in daily practice, and Real World Evidence (RWE) is established based on RWD. It is possible to overcome the disadvantage of RCT, which cannot reflect all the various variables in the actual clinical field as it is conducted for only subset of patients. Researchers planned to prospectively collect RWD of ramucirumab/paclitaxel combination therapy as 2nd-line chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
Cancers of the upper gastro-intestinal tract, including esophagus (gullet), stomach and small bowel, are amongst the deadliest malignancies. The main reason for their high mortality rate is that they are usually diagnosed late when curative treatments are no longer effective. However, these types of cancer generally arise from well-described pre-cancerous diseases, such as Barrett's esophagus and gastric intestinal metaplasia. This provides an opportunity for clinicians to detect these pre-cancerous conditions early and offer adequate cure or clinical monitoring before they progress to cancer. A camera test (gastroscopy) is the gold-standard test to detect pre-cancerous diseases in these organs. There has been limited research to set the standards for performance of a gastroscopy, especially with regards to diagnosis of pre-cancerous conditions, which require knowledge and skills by the physician performing the test (endoscopist). Therefore, the hypothesis behind this study is that the aforementioned pre-cancerous diseases are understudied and often go undetected. This study aims to understand how often endoscopists should diagnose these pre-cancerous diseases on routine gastroscopy and help define the standards to measure performance. The investigators will assess the following rates: i. how often endoscopists diagnose these pre-cancerous lesions during endoscopy; ii. How often these conditions are diagnosed on biopsies taken according to a standardized protocol; iii. How often these condition should have been diagnosed by the endoscopists based on the review of pictures by expert endoscopists. The investigators will also compare the rates of correct diagnosis by endoscopists with different levels of experience and based on the times spent to complete the diagnostic test. Investigating these aspects will enhance the understanding of the medical community with regards to the diagnosis of these pre-cancerous lesions and set endoscopy standards to improve their early detection and treatment before they progress to cancer. This will translate to improved cancer prevention and benefit for patients.
The trial is a multi-center, open, observational registration study, which aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Camrelizumab (anti-PD-1 antibody) in the treatment of Chinese patients with advanced esophageal cancer in the real world.
A Controlled Clinical Study of TC/PD-1 Inhibitors Combined With anlotinib as First-line Treatment for Advanced ESCC
This is a study for participants with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who had tumor progression after first-line treatment with platinum and fluoropyrimidine doublet therapy. The study will be conducted in 2 parts.
