Filter by:A multicenter Italian retrospective study on COVID-19 pandemic condition and advanced Gastro - Intestinal Cancer. Are in Italy increased the new diagnosis of GI cancer in advanced stage in the 2020 compared with 2019, as a consequence of COVID-19?
Deep learning technology has an increasing role in medical image applications and, recently, an artificial intelligence device has been developed and commercialized by Medtronic for identification of polyps during colonoscopy (GI-GENIUS). This kind of computer-aided detection (CADe) devices have demonstrated its ability for improving polyp detection rate (PDR) and the adenoma detection rate (ADR). However, this increase in PDR and ADR is mainly made at the expense of small polyps and non advanced adenomas. Colonoscopies after a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT) could be the scenario with a higher prevalence of advanced lesions which could be the ideal situation for demonstrating if these CADe systems are able also to increase the detection of advanced lesions and which kind of advanced lesions are these systems able to detect. The CADILLAC study will randomize individuals within the population-based Spanish colorectal cancer screening program to receive a colonoscopy where the endoscopist is assisted by the GI-GENIUS device or to receive a standard colonoscopy. If our results are positive, that could suppose a big step forward for CADe devices, in terms of definitive demonstration of being of help for efectively identify also advanced lesions.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of alectinib in participants with Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK)-positive locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors other than lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to learn about the feasibility and safety of using Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) before and after surgical removal of a tumor. PRRT treatment is based on the administration of a radioactive product, 177-Lu DOTA-0-Tyr3-Octreotate (Lutathera®) and its use before and after surgery is thought to increase the overall survival benefit for patients with SSTR-positive gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors GEP-NETs.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of arginine/lysine solution administration on serum potassium levels. A systematic assessment of serum potassium levels will be performed during infusion and up to 24 hours post start of infusion compared to baseline.
Malnutrition and loss of muscle mass frequently occur in patients undergoing chemotherapy and can negatively effect therapy outcome. Especially patients with cancer of the gastrointestinal tract are often affected by malnutrition. Therefore, this study aims to examine changes in nutritional status of patients with cancer of the gastrointestinal tract during chemotherapy. Findings of this study will help to improve nutritional treatment of patients undergoing chemotherapy.
The study designed is to evaluate the safety of Canady Helios™ Cold Plasma Scalpel (CHCPS) in patients with solid tumors with carcinomatosis scheduled to undergo surgical resection for cytoreduction. Patients with stage 4 resectable tumors as decided by a multidisciplinary disease management team may be included if the metastatic disease is non-synchronous (e.g. recurrent colorectal carcinoma with hepatic metastasis amenable for surgical resection).. Plasma is an ionized gas typically generated in high-temperature laboratory conditions. Plasma coagulators are currently used routinely as surgical tools with multiple applications that create temperatures between 37° C to 43°C and cause thermal injury. Earlier studies demonstrated the non-aggressive nature of cold plasma. As evidence accumulates, it is becoming clear that low-temperature cold plasma has an increasing role in biomedical applications.
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
The purpose of the study is to determine whether standardized implementation of a scripted template for discussing important issues that arise near the end of life improves the care of those who have advanced cancer.
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and survival benefit of etoposide plus cisplatin and irinotecan plus cisplatin in first-line therapy of non-primary pancreatic metastatic and/or unresectable gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor G3 type. In addition, the investigators will explore the resistance mechanisms of gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor G3, and screen out biomarkers that can predict the efficacy of chemotherapy.
