View clinical trials related to Gastric Adenocarcinoma.
Filter by:Many patients have cancers that have increased activity of a protein called STAT3 that contributes critically to the development and growth of their cancer. Despite our knowledge of STAT3's importance to cancer, scientists and doctors have not developed a drug that targets it and that patients can take to treat their cancer more effectively than treatments that are now available. Tvardi Therapeutics, Incorporated has developed a compound, TTI-101, which can be given by mouth and acts as a direct inhibitor of STAT3. Administration of TTI-101 to mice demonstrated that it blocked growth of cancers of the breast, head and neck, lung, and liver and it was safe when administered at high doses to mice, rats, and dogs. In this application, Tvardi is proposing to further develop TTI-101 for treatment of solid tumors for which the prognosis is dismal. The investigators will determine how safe it is when administered to patients with cancer, determine whether an adequate dose can be administered to patients with cancer that will block STAT3 in their cancer, and determine whether treatment with TTI-101 leads to reduced growth of their cancer.
Background: Gastric cancer is a common and serious cancer. Standard treatment is chemotherapy drugs. Researchers want to see if a new treatment helps. It is surgical removal of the cancer and heated chemotherapy delivered to the abdominal cavity called HIPEC. Objective: To test if surgical removal of tumors plus heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy can improve survival in people with gastric cancers. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with gastric cancer who can have most tumors surgically removed Design: Participants will be screened with: - Medical history - Physical exam - Blood, urine, and heart tests - Scans - Tissue sample from previous surgery - Endoscopy with biopsy: A tube with a camera goes through the mouth and into the stomach. It and takes a sample of stomach tissue. Participants might may get medicine to make them drowsy. - Laparoscopy: Small cuts are made in the abdomen. A thin tube with a light and camera is inserted into the abdomen. Participants sleep through the procedure. Participants will stay in the hospital. They will have: - Surgery to remove as many tumors as possible. - HIPEC for 60 minutes: Two thin tubes are put into the abdomen. Two chemotherapy drugs are given through one tube. They are drained out through another at a temperature a few degrees above normal body temperature. Another drug is given in a vein. Recovery for 7-21 days: Participants will have tubes in their stomach and bladder and IVs for a few days. They will get pain medicine, IV fluids, antibiotics, and blood transfusions as needed. Participants will have visits every few months for 3 years, then one a year. Visits include physical exam, blood tests, and scans. They also include dietary assessment and questions.
The purpose of this study is to preliminarily evaluate anti-tumor activity of a Recombinant Humanized Anti-PD-1 Monoclonal Antibody for Infusion (JS001) in treating advanced gastric adenocarcinoma, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D)
A prospective, opened, multicentric, randomised, phase III trial with two arms: - Arm A: curative gastrectomy with D1-D2 lymph node dissection + HIPEC with oxaliplatin - Arm B: curative gastrectomy with D1-D2 lymph node dissection Main objective: Compare overall 5-year survival rates in patients surgically treated for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma (T3, T4 and/or N+ and/or with positive peritoneal cytology), treated either with curative gastrectomy and adjuvant HIPEC, or with curative gastrectomy alone.
The clinical hypothesis of this study is that the addition of Panitumumab to the first line treatment combination of docetaxel plus cisplatin will provide benefit to patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
The ongoing study is a Phase II, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy of MBP-426 at a dose of 170 mg/m2 in combination therapy in patients with second line metastatic gastric, gastro-esophageal junction or esophageal adenocarcinoma.
