Filter by:At present, there are more and more reports about enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)in China, but there is no ERAS treatment standard for gastrointestinal cancer, and there are many factors limiting the development of ERAS. In recent years, due to the development of minimally invasive technology, the establishment of evidence-based medicine model and the development of MDT, it makes a good solid foundation for the clinical application of ERAS. The implementation of ERAS requires the cooperation of surgeons, anesthesia management, nursing, rehabilitation and other teams. As an individualized treatment mode, ERAS focuses on the optimization of treatment for different individuals in order to acquire the best benefit of patients. Therefore, the concept of ERAS is still in the process of continuous improvement and development in China, hoping to explore the Chinese ERAS clinical pathway for gastrointestinal cancer. The purpose of this study is to optimize the clinical pathway of ERAS in the perioperative period of gastrointestinal cancer, and to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ERAS in gastrointestinal cancer.
This research study, is studying the combination of cabozantinib and nivolumab in treating advanced carcinoid tumors. - Carcinoid tumor is another term used to refer to neuroendocrine tumors that arise in organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, lungs, or thymus.
Open-label dose escalation of Ulixertinib combined with fixed dose of hydroxychloroquine.
Phase Ia - Explore safety and establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose levels for phase Ib expansion phase of BI 905711 based on the frequency of patients experiencing dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) during the MTD evaluation period. The MTD evaluation period is defined as the first two treatment cycles (from first dose administration until the day preceding the third dose administration or end of REP in case of discontinuation before start of Cycle 3). Phase Ia - Explore pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, and efficacy to guide the determination of a potentially effective dose range for phase Ib in the absence of MTD. Phase Ib - Evaluate efficacy and safety of BI 905711 at a potentially effective dose range and determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)
The main purpose of this research study is to determine if the use of a nutritional supplement and exercise improve or worsen cachexia.
In this study, researchers wanted to learn more about the effect of Aspirin taken as low dose (75 - 300 mg) in preventing stomach, colorectal and esophagus cancer. The researchers were interested in the effect by duration of aspirin use and the effect on the time since aspirin intake has been stopped in preventing stomach, colorectal and esophagus cancer. In addition, the study also looked into the time patients survived after being diagnosed (survival rate) with cancer and number of cancer patients who died (case fatality rate). The study was based on an electronic database managed by the Health Authority in Hong Kong containing anonymized clinical information of patients living in Hong Kong.
This is an Open, Single Arm, Exploratory and Phase II Clinical Trial of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules Combined With CAPEOX in RAS and BRAF wild-type patients with Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma(CRC) as 1st Therapy. After 6 cycles of combined therapy, patients will receive capecitabine and anlotinib as maintenance therapy until tumor progression.In order to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules combined with CAPEOX in treatment of patients with mCRC. The patients who are pathologically confirmed as RAS and BRAF wild-type mCRC will be enrolled. Condition or disease Invention/treatment Phase Colorectal Cancer Drug: Anlotinib Hydrochloride Drug: Capecitabine Drug: Oxaliplatin Phase 2
This trial tests telephone-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a type of psychotherapy, to reduce fatigue interference with activities, mood, and cognition in advanced gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients and family caregiver burden. ACT includes mindfulness exercises (e.g., meditations, performing activities with greater awareness), identifying personal values (e.g., family, spirituality), and engaging in activities consistent with these values. A total of 40 patient-caregiver dyads were randomly assigned in equal numbers to either the ACT intervention or an education/support condition. Dyads in both conditions participated in six weekly 50-minute telephone sessions. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, 2 weeks post-intervention, and 3 months post-intervention. The investigators hypothesize that ACT will lead to improved primary and secondary outcomes as compared to education/support. Study findings will inform a large-scale trial of intervention efficacy.
The investigators hypothesize that an early assessment of the clinical toxicity of the patient is possible via patient reported outcomes and that this information provides at least the same information level as the clinical examination of the patient made by the doctor. The early decision to prepare chemotherapy medications based on the indirect early collection of clinical information from the patient via a patient reported outcome should help minimize the number of chemotherapy medications destroyed.
This single-blind, randomized controlled trial studies how well inhaled essential oils work for common quality of life concerns in patients who are undergoing cancer treatment such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and/or immunotherapy given through the vein (intravenously). Aromatherapy using essential oils, such as ginger essential oil, German chamomile essential oil, and bergamot essential oil, may improve quality of life issues such as nausea, anxiety, loss of appetite, and fatigue in patients undergoing treatment for cancer.
