Filter by:This is an open, single arm, multicenter phase 2 trial in which BO-112 will be administered intratumorally in combination with intravenous pembrolizumab in patients with liver metastasis from colorectal, gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancers. The objective is to reverse the primary resistance that a subgroup of patients from these tumors having microsatellite stability present to the PD-1 inhibitors. Treatment will be administered every 3 weeks, with the exception of the first cycle, in which BO-112 will be also administered on D8, for up to 2 years. The primary objective is overall response rate based on RECIST 1.1 and safety, specifically referred to treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) with severity ≥ Grade 3 related to the study treatment (NCI-CTCAE v 5.0). The secondary endpoints include other efficacy endpoints (duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival at 6 months, all based on RECIST 1.1, and overall response rate based on a specific tumor assessment criteria to evaluate the response to immunotherapies, IRECIST) and safety, in this case considering the number and proportion of subjects with treatment TEAEs (any grade) . In addition, the changes in the tumor microenvironment induced by the injection of BO-112 will be also evaluated as exploratory endpoints.
Objective: To assess the safety and feasibility of the implementation of the esophageal multisegmented fully covered self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) for the palliation of patients with malignant dysphagia. Study design: Prospective observational nonrandomized clinical study. Study population: A total of 30 patients with malignant dysphagia will be included. Sample size calculation does not apply for this type of study. Intervention: All patients will be treated with the esophageal multisegmented fully covered SEMS. Primary end points: - Safety: complications and adverse events during follow-up with special attention to stent migration rates; - Efficacy: technical success of stent placement. Secondary end points: - Recurrent dysphagia including its cause; - Functional outcome: Ogilvie dysphagia score and WHO performance score (measured at baseline, 2 weeks and every 4 weeks until death/stent removal, or until a maximum of 6 months follow-up); - Tissue ingrowth or overgrowth (measured endoscopically every endoscopic evaluation during follow-up); - Pain related to esophageal stent.
This intervention study will be conducted on patients included in a nationwide and prospective cohort, The Oesophageal Surgery in Cancer patients: Adaptation and Recovery study (OSCAR). The OSCAR includes patients operated on for oesophageal cancer in Sweden between 2013-2018, identified through pathology departments and included in the cohort 1 year after surgery. A comprehensive interview is conducted by a research nurse during a home visit using patient reported outcomes on several HRQOL, psychosocial, emotional and nutritional aspects. Regular follow-ups are carried out at 1½, 2, 2½, 3, 4 and 5 years postoperatively. All patients within OSCAR are invited to the intervention trial. Half of the eligible patients will be randomised to intervention and half to standard care (control group) by means of block randomisation method. The intervention group will be encouraged to adhere to a physical activity regimen of 150 minutes of weekly minimum intensity activities and 5 simple strength training exercises twice a week as instructed by the research nurse. The control group will follow their routine daily physical activity. HRQOL measures, height and weight, body composition, muscle strength, functional mobility and strength, and dietary intake are assessed before and after the intervention. Compliance will be ensured by means of a daily physical activity dairy and a weekly follow up on telephone with all patients.
This open-label, one-center, noncomparative, two-stages phase 1B trial assessed the tyrosine kinase inhibitor donafenib tosylate tablets(400 mg/d,200mg bid) in patients with advanced, inoperable oesophageal cancer progressing after chemotherapy . The primary endpoint is the safety.The secondary endpoints are tumor response and progression-free survival.
This is a trial of adoptive T cell therapy using the patient's own T cells, genetically engineered to target the tumour associated antigen NY-ESO-1 (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1). Eligible patients will undergo leukapheresis (a process to remove white blood cells) to retrieve sufficient T cells which will be gene modified and expanded in the laboratory. Patients will undergo preconditioning chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide (60mg/kg) day -7 and day -6, followed by fludarabine (25mg/m2) day -5 to day -1. The NY-ESO-1 gene modified cells will be re-infused on day 0 and the patients will receive up to 14 doses of intravenous Interleukin2 (100000 U/kg) from day 0 to day 4. The primary objective of response rate according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) 1.1 criteria will be assessed by CT scans carried out at week 6, week 12 and at 12 weekly intervals thereafter.
This study is to investigate the effects of narrowed gastric tube on postoperative nutritional status and the quality of life in esophageal cancer patients treated with Ivor-Lewis esopagectomy in a 12-month follow-up period.
