Filter by:This study aims to elucidate the effects of neoadjuvant Tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy in locally advanced MSS rectal cancer.
Pathologic complete response (pCR) after multimodal treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients is considered as the gold-standard of treatment success as it is associated to privileged oncologic outcome. Nevertheless, data from multicenter high-volume cohorts with long term follow-up are scarce. This is a multicenter observational study using prospectively collected data from the Spanish Rectal Cancer Project database. The main objective of the study is to update long-term oncologic follow-up of those patients treated for LARC with nCRT and surgery (either TME or subtotal TME; S-TME) who had obtained a pCR. Secondary objective is to analyze demographic, clinical, operative and treatment variables in search of related factors to adverse oncologic outcomes, like distant recurrence or tumor-related deaths. The results are reported in accordance with the STROBE (STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology) Statement for observational studies. All calculations are performed using Stata 13.1 (StataCorp, Texas, USA).
Rectal cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in Peking University Third Hospital in 2021 are divided into acute myelosuppression group, chronic myelosuppression group and normal group. The differences of magnetic resonance parameters between the groups were compared. The risk identification model of acute and chronic myelosuppression after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy was established by clinical risk factors and quantitative parameters of magnetic resonance imaging, and the prediction efficiency of the model was evaluated.
This is a multicenter, single-arm, phase II study of nivolumab in combination with regorafenib in subjects with locally-advanced rectal cancer who are eligible for a curative treatment including pre-operative SCRT and TME(or watch & wait approach). The study is based on the Simon's two-stage design and a maximum of 60 subjects will be enrolled. In addition to the standard efficacy interim analysis according to the statistical design, a safety interim analysis will be performed on the first 6 subjects who have completed the study treatment to ensure safe continuation of the study investigation. Eligible subjects will be treated according to the following sequential treatment plan: - Induction treatment: This consists of treatment with nivolumab (240 mg intravenously, on day 1 and 15) and regorafenib (80 mg/day orally, from day 1 to 14) - Standard SCRT: This consists of 25 Gy delivered in 5 fractions (from day 22 to 26) - Consolidation treatment: This consists of treatment with nivolumab (240 mg intravenously, on day 29, 43 and 57) and regorafenib (80 mg/day orally, from day 29 to 49) - Surgery: Surgical resection will be performed according to the principles of TME (between day 74 and 87, i.e., between 7 to 8 weeks after completion of SCRT). As an alternative to surgery, subjects who achieve cCR can be offered a watch & wait approach. - Adjuvant chemotherapy: Administration of adjuvant chemotherapy will be left to the discretion of the treating physician The study also includes translational procedures (i.e. collection of tumour biopsies, blood samples and stool samples at pre-specified time points) for exploratory molecular and immune contexture analyses. These are mandatory for all study subjects.
This is a open-label, single-arm study to investigate the safety and efficacy of total neoadjuvant treatment (TNT) in patients with locally advanced resectable rectal cancer.
Open-label, Phase I-II, first-in-human (FIH) study for A166 monotherapy in HER2-expressing or amplified patients who progressed on or did not respond to available standard therapies. Patients must have documented HER2 expression or amplification. The patient must have exhausted available standard therapies. Patients will receive study drug as a single IV infusion. Cycles will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
There is a growing body of evidence that surgery and associated morbidities can be omitted without compromising oncological safety in selected patients who have achieved a clinical complete response after radiochemotherapy. However with standard neoadjuvant treatment regimens the pathological complete response rate lies in the range between 10%-20%, the number of patients qualifying for non-operative management is even lower since the sensitivity of currently available diagnostic measures for predicting the pathological complete response hardly surpasses 50%-60%.The hereby proposed phase II trial CAO/ARO/AIO-16 aims at finding novel and innovative aspects of rectal cancer treatment. According to recently published data the radiochemotherapy regime in the present study with consolidating chemotherapy and delayed assessment of response has the potential to achieve pathological complete rates of approximately 40%. A standardized re-evaluation after consolidating chemotherapy will select patients who are candidates for organ-preservation. These patients will not undergo radical surgery and will instead be follow-up closely for tumor regrowth.
Preoperative 5-FU-based (5-fluorouracil) chemoradiotherapy (CRT), total mesorectal excision surgery, and 4 cycles of adjuvant 5-FU - as established by CAO/ARO/AIO-94 - is at present a standard of care for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (UICC stage II and III). The phase III German CAO/ARO/AIO-04 trial showed, that the addition of oxaliplatin increased treatment efficacy in terms of early secondary efficacy endpoints (e.g. the pCR-rate). With a median follow-up of 50 months, the primary endpoint of this trial - disease free survival - was significantly improved in the oxaliplatin-containing treatment arm (3-year disease-free survival (DFS) 71.2% versus 75.9%, hazard ratio (HR) 0.79, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.64-0.98, p=0.03). The hereby proposed randomized phase II trial CAO/ARO/AIO-12 aims at finding novel and innovative aspects of rectal cancer treatment, and will thus provide important information for defining the experimental arm in the upcoming large scale trial of the group. Compared to the current standard, in both study arms, the sequence of the three treatment modalities is modified, placing the chemotherapy block before surgery. The pre-operative sequence of chemotherapy -> chemoradiotherapy (arm A) has been shown to be feasible with no early tumor progression prior to definitive surgical resection in a small randomized phase II study from Spain. The sequence chemoradiotherapy -> chemotherapy (arm B) may be beneficial according to response kinetics considerations, and by maintaining a highly effective local treatment in the first place. Both approaches could avoid the problem of major compliance problems with post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy. CAO/ARO/AIO: German Rectal Cancer Study Group
The objective of the study is to provide proof that a MRI based preoperative radiochemotherapy in patients with locally advanced rectal carcinoma allows limiting RCT to high risk patients without increase of locoregional recurrence rate and decrease of overall survival provided there is a high quality of mesorectal excision.
