Filter by:The initial intent of the study was to be a multi-center single-arm open-label Simon's two-stage Phase II clinical trial of first-line mFOLFOX6 + trastuzumab + avelumab in metastatic HER2-amplified gastric and esophageal adenocarcinomas. Accrual will halt after completion of Stage I (enrollment of 18 patients). This decision is not due to safety issues. Subjects currently on treatment will continue until criteria as defined in the protocol is met.
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label phase II study including patients with squamous-cell carcinoma of the esophagus, refractory or intolerant to combination therapy with Fluoropyrimidine and Platinum-based drugs.
Researchers already did studies in low-dose Aspirin for the prevention of heart and blood vessels disease and for the prevention of cancer of the colorectum. In this study, they want to learn whether an effect for the prevention of oesophagus cancer and stomach cancer goes along with the use of low-dose ASA on patients taking this medicine for the prevention of heart and blood vessels disease compared to non-use. To find this out electronic medical records stored in primary care database in the UK, The Health Improvement Network (THIN), will be used.
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.
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.
This study will investigate a new method to assess tissue perfusion during surgery for esophageal cancer. When a tumor in the distal esophagus is removed, the ends of the esophagus and the stomach must be reconnected by an anastomosis. An optimal perfusion is essential to ensure a good healing of the anastomosis. If anastomotic leakage occurs, it may prolong hospital stay, increase the risk of serious complications and death, delay start-up of chemotherapy and worsen the long-term survival prognosis. During the operation the blood supply to the ends of the esophagus and stomach will be assessed in different ways; The traditional where the surgeon looks and feels on the tissue, and newer methods with an indocyanine green and cameras that illuminate the tissue with near-infrared light. The surgeon will assess whether these methods change the decision on where the ends should be sewn together.
This study aims to assess the 6- and 12-month venous thromboembolism (VTE) and bleeding incidence from the start of cancer diagnosis in a retrospective cohort of patients with esophageal cancer. Additionally, the predictive value of the Khorana score and several other VTE and bleeding prediction scores and risk factors will be evaluated.
This pilot trial studies how well an ultrasound with a contrast agent (perflubutane microbubble [Sonazoid]) works in identifying sentinel lymph nodes in participants with esophageal cancer. Sentinel lymph nodes are lymph nodes to which the cancer is likely to spread from the primary tumor. Diagnostic procedures, such as contrast-enhanced ultrasound, may work better in identifying sentinel lymph nodes and finding out how far the disease has spread.
Our main objective is to evaluate the effect of Ocoxin-Viusid on the quality of life of patients with advanced stomach cancer and esophagogastric junction. The Ocoxin-Viusid nutritional supplement is expected to improve quality of life and tolerance to treatment with Chemotherapy.
Objective. The objective of the study is to verify and validate the data collected in the Spanish EURECCA (EUropean REgistry of Cancer CAre) Esophagogastric Cancer Registry between January 2014 and December 2017 through an audit process. It is also intended to describe the initiation and implementation of this Registry as well as its early outcomes. Methods. An audit of registered cases (esophageal, esophagogastric junction and gastric cancer resectable patients undergoing surgery) from 01/01/2014 to 12/31/2017 and a descriptive analysis of these data will be performed. Expected results. The study could show that the Spanish EURECCA Esophagogastric Cancer Registry is a reliable source of information, valid for carrying out specific and exhaustive analysis that may lead to high quality publications in indexed journals. It is also expected to generate a high impact based on the large number of cases included in the Registry, favoring new research projects. Relevance. The standardization of the data collection is essential to compare outcomes between different centers, regions and countries. This study will allows us to verify the integrity of the collected data as well as its accuracy, a critical aspect to gain credibility for future studies using the Registry data.
