Filter by:The primary objective of this chart review study is to evaluate the outcomes of subjects with Attenuated Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (AFAP) and Deleterious Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) who have not undergone surgical resection of the colon. A secondary objective of this study is to compare 1) the colonoscopic and pathology histories including history of ampullary adenoma in the duodenum over family generations, 2) the use of chemopreventive medications, and 3) clinical features of subjects who pursued prophylactic surgical resection of the colon with those that have elected to continue routine colonoscopic surveillance in an effort to better characterize factors (e.g. polyp burden, ampullary adenoma and level of dysplasia, etc) which may influence management decisions.
This is a phase 2 study to evaluate multiple doses of AK001 across 2 active doses. Pharmacodynamic activity will also be evaluated.
This is a study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) versus standard treatment (capecitabine, gemcitabine, or docetaxel) for the treatment of recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC). Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either pembrolizumab or Investigator's choice of standard treatment. The primary study hypothesis is that pembrolizumab treatment prolongs Overall Survival (OS) when compared to standard treatment. With Amendment 7 (effective 2-March-2022), upon study completion, participants will be discontinued and may be enrolled in an extension study.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and effect on quality of life of oral capecitabine in combination with intravenous (IV) cisplatin in participants with metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer. Participants will receive up to 8 cycles of capecitabine treatment, and cisplatin will be administered on the first day of each cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is up to 24 weeks, and the target sample size is 44 individuals.
To investigate whether the additional induction chemotherapy (IC) to concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) was able to improve overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), and to clarify if stage-specified chemoradiotherapy regimens benefit the most for locoregionally advanced NPC.
Serrated Polyposis Syndrome (SPS) is a high-risk condition for colorectal cancer (CRC). SPS patients have a cumulative CRC risk of 1.9% in 5 years despite a strict endoscopic surveillance in specialized centers. Proximal serrated lesions are endoscopically challenging to detect due to their unremarkable morphology. Endocuff is a novel device comprised of a cap with a row of finger-like projections with a unique dynamic shape that help to flatten mucosal folds during withdrawal of the instrument in order to improve detection of lesions. Recent studies have reported an increase of detection rate and mean per patient of adenomas with Endocuff-assisted Colonoscopy compared with Standard Colonoscopy. The purpose of this study is to assess the usefulness of Endocuff-assisted Colonoscopy to detect serrated lesions in SPS patients undergoing surveillance compared to Standard Colonoscopy in a randomized fashion
NBI has been proven to be a useful tool to detect early NPC, but they were few studies concerning the detection of post-radiotherapy mucosal residual NPC using NBI system
This study will assess the effectiveness of MEDIHONEY® sinus rinses (alone or in combination with intranasal corticosteroids) vs. intranasal corticosteroid sinus rinses on mucosal healing and polyp recurrence in the post-operative period following functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HepaSphere interventional therapy using digital subtraction angiography(DSA) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
A circulating tumor cell (CTC) count is an established prognostic factor in some malignancies such as metastatic breast cancer. However, the value of CTC in diagnosis and outcome prediction of metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (mNPC) patients is not unknown. Through the observational prospective clinical trial, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of CTC in diagnosis of mNPC patients will be gained. Further, the value of CTC in outcome prediction of mNPC patients will be uncovered.
