NCT ID: NCT06138223 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for GastroEsophageal Cancer

The Effect of exeRcise And Diet on Quality of Life in Patients With Incurable Cancer of Esophagus and Stomach (RADICES)

RADICES
Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The survival of patients with incurable gastroesophageal cancer can extend over a year with anticancer therapy. However, the number of patients with deteriorating quality of life in this patient group steadily decreases over time during the treatment. Potentially reversible causes related to deterioration of quality of life are diminished muscle mass, physical capacity and nutritional status. Therefore, interventions that can target these in order to maintain or improve quality of life are urgently needed. However, it is yet unknown whether improvement of physical capacity and nutritional status improves quality of life in patients with incurable gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma after failure of first-line treatment. Since these patients are in a precarious situation, the benefits and harms of a combined exercise and nutritional intervention should be carefully evaluated.Therefore this study investigates the effect of a combined exercise and nutrition intervention compared to usual care on quality of life in incurable GAC patients after progression upon first-line treatment. A total of 196 patients with metastasized gastroesophageal cancer will be recruited and randomly allocated 1:1 to standard care or standard care plus a combined exercise and nutritional intervention.

NCT ID: NCT04343365 Recruiting - Incurable Disease Clinical Trials

Generating Novel Therapeutic Strategies Based on Evolutionary Tumor Board

Start date: May 5, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study will evaluate the ability of a multidisciplinary group, the Evolutionary Tumor Board (ETB), to develop therapeutic strategies in patients without curative options.

Impact of an Early Palliative Approach

MAHO2
Start date: November 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In 2003, MAHO study (Ferrand E, Jabre P, Vincent-Genod C, et al. Circumstances of death in hospitalized patients and nurses' perceptions: French multicenter Mort-a-l'Hôpital survey. Arch Intern Med. 2008 168: 867-875.) evaluated the way 3793 patients died in 200 French hospitals and showed that their conditions of death were not optimal. The 22th April 2005 French Law precised patient's end of life rights with necessity to refrain from any unreasonable obstinacy, the right to refuse treatments and the obligation of a collegial process decision when the patient is not conscious. Since then, studies haven't demonstrate any improvement and found that palliative strategy in France is much less used than in other developed countries.
