Filter by:We performed a retrospective data analysis of patients with synchronously metastasized colorectal cancer, comparing the histological response on the primary tumour to chemotherapy combined with either vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition.
This is a prospective, randomized research trial that aims to evaluate the clinical results of two different approximation methods to close the tissue defect caused by removing gastrointestinal polyps.
This study will assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of THE-630 in participants with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).
Observational prospective cohort study designed for patients with gastrointestinal cancers receiving a fluoropyrimidine based chemotherapy regimen.
Over a million new cancer cases are diagnosed in India each year. This huge burden coupled with inadequate infrastructural facilities is adversely affecting the quality of patient care. As a side effect it is adding to cost of health care which patient is paying from his/her own pocket. Total care of cancer patients taking chemotherapy is interrupted by several obstacles some of which can be prevented or detected early and treated. Most of the patients experience toxicity during cancer chemotherapy but the reporting remains inadequate as patients are not aware how to report or the physicians, many a times, are extremely busy to record and act on them early. We assume that using patient reported adverse event (AE) scale is more practical and easier to use for reporting AEs. This intervention, we feel, can pick more AEs which can lead to early intervention by the physician and ultimately reducing the cost of treatment to patients. We plan to include adult patients (>18years) having Gastro-intestinal cancers (both colorectal and non-colorectal cancers) who are scheduled to receive combination chemotherapy medicines with both curative and non-curative intent (in patients with advanced cancers). Patients will be given an AE scale and will be asked to fill it at home during each chemotherapy cycle, for upto 4 cycles. The physician will also ask them about the AE during the next clinic visit and record the AEs as per the widely accepted AE scale (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events-CTCAE) for reporting. The patient reported AE scale will then be compared and analyzed with standard CTCAE using relevant statistical methods.
The purpose of this study is to determine if it is possible to make and safely administer a 'personalized' cancer vaccine for people diagnosed with an upper gastrointestinal tract cancer.
In this randomized controlled study, we aim to compare the efficacy and safety of these two interventions in patients with oxaliplatin-induced gastroesophageal variceal bleeding.
This study intends to explore the effectiveness and safety of CDK4/6 inhibitor (TQB3616) combined with PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (TQB2450) in the treatment of PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody resistance and abnormal cell cycle digestive system tumors, through prospective Explore to provide more evidence-based medical evidence for precision immunotherapy for patients with digestive system tumors.
This feasibility pilot study is designed to learn whether patients and their care partners (e.g., family members) are willing and able to complete two study visits at Dartmouth College while receiving cancer care at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center.
The purpose of this prospective, interventional, single-arm pilot study is to evaluate whether virtually delivered group-based physical activity is feasible for adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors. AYAs who were diagnosed with cancer and have completed cancer treatment will be recruited for this study. This study will enroll 20 participants in total and will last approximately 3 months.
