Filter by:This clinical trial is being done to develop and test how well creative arts interventions (drawing, painting, making sculptures) compared to watching videos can affect symptoms and impact the quality of life in children with cancer. Creative arts mind-body interventions (CrA) are one type of complementary health interventions which have been associated with improved quality of life and reduced symptom burden among children with cancer. CrA is an ideal intervention for children with cancer due to the long hours spent in the hospital setting for treatments, the creativity and developmental focus of children, and their potential ability to communicate more easily through art than words. Researchers want to develop and test a CrA intervention to help improve symptoms and the quality of life of children with cancer.
This study aims to develop a highly sensitive, specific, and cost-effective blood assay for early detection of colorectal adenomas and cancer, using advanced machine learning and state-of-the-art biological analyses.
Gastric cancer continues to have a poor prognosis primarily due to the inability to detect it in its early stages. This study will develop and validate a blood assay to facilitate the non-invasive detection of gastric cancer.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) once predominantly affected older individuals, but in recent years has witnessed a progressive increase in incidence among young adults. Once rare, early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC, that is, a CRC diagnosed before the age of 50) now constitutes 10-15% of all newly diagnosed CRC cases and it stands as the first cause of cancer-related death in young men and the second for young women. This study aims to detect EOCRC with a non-invasive test, using a blood-based molecular assay based on microRNA (ribonucleic acid)
Single-arm, open-label,interventional study evaluating adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) infusion (HS-IT101) after lymphodepletion preparative with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide regimen, followed by IL-2, for the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumor.
Remarkable progress has been made in treating germ-cell tumor (GCT) through the use of platinum-based regimens. However, part of yolk sac tumor (YST) with cisplatin resistance or recurrence is nevertheless prone to relapse after second-line treatment. This leaves a gap in effective treatment, which needs to be filled by novel therapeutic approaches. This paper is the first one to report the treatment combining sirolimus with nab-paclitaxel, ifosfamide, and carboplatin (S-TIC) for children with repeated relapsed or refractory yolk sac tumor (rrrYST).
The present study will assess real-world clinical outcomes, adverse events and economics from treatment with endocrine therapy(ET) combined with abemaciclib in patients with hormone receptor-positive(HR+) breast cancer.
The study, led by Zhejiang Cancer Hospital and sponsored by Bio-Thera Solutions, Ltd., is an exploratory multicenter, open-label phase Ib-II clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic characteristics, and preliminary efficacy of the combination of BAT8008 with BAT1308 in patients with advanced solid tumors. This study aims to explore the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic characteristics of BAT8008 combined with BAT1308 in patients with advanced solid tumors, determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), provide recommended doses and reasonable dosing regimens for subsequent clinical studies, and preliminarily evaluate the antitumor efficacy. The study is divided into two stages. The first stage will use a "3+3" dose escalation design to explore the safety and tolerability of the investigational drugs. In the second stage, based on the preliminary safety and efficacy results from the first stage, appropriate doses and tumor types will be selected for expansion studies within the safety dose range to further investigate the safety and clinical efficacy of BAT8008+BAT1308 and provide evidence for subsequent clinical studies.
Rationale: Approximately 13% (range 10-28%) of all colorectal cancer patients (CRC) present with an acute obstruction. Postoperative mortality after an emergency resection is known for its high risk of morbidity and mortality. Different options can be considered in the management of obstructing right sided CRC: 1) primary resection, simultaneous treatment of obstruction and tumour resection, or 2) staged treatment of the obstruction with secondary resection of the tumour. Currently, in the Netherlands, an emergency resection has been judged to be inferior to postponing surgery. Patients who present with right sided obstructive colon cancer at one of the participating hospitals are subjected to a bridge to surgery (BTS) protocol. Objective: The primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of BTS protocols in right sided obstructive colon cancer and reduce mortality- and morbidity (stoma rates, major- and minor complications) rates in potentially curable patients presenting with acute obstructing colon cancer. Study design: This is a multicentre, prospective registration study Study population: All patients presenting with high clinical suspicion or histologically proven right sided colon cancer and signs of obstruction of the large bowel. Intervention: Prospective registration of the implementation of bridge to surgery protocols in patients with (acute) malignant right sided obstruction of the colon, without suspicion of perforation (tumour perforation or blow out) in order to optimize patients preoperatively. The BTS approach encompasses the utilization of either ileostomy creation, stent placement or nasogastric tube for decompression, which is subsequently followed by definitive surgical treatment at a later stage. BTS also involves pre-optimization, prior to the surgical procedure, with the following approach: optimizing the nutritional health status improving the physical health status of the patient. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is complication-free survival (CFS) at 90 days after hospitalization. Complication is defined here as mortality and/or development of a major complication (Clavien-Dindo classification ≥3). With a total follow up of three years. Secondary endpoints: overall mortality, morbidity (stoma rates, minor complications), in hospital stay, oncologic quality of resection and other occurring adverse events.
Phase I with a dose finding cohort, followed by expansion cohorts in pre-specified tumor types.
