Filter by:The objective of this trial is to investigate the effect of bladder training on the incidence of re-catheterization after proctectomy. In this study, the bladder training include intermittent urethral catheter clamping combined with active urination training, which we called ICCAUT strategy. This prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial will enroll patients with rectal cancer who will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the ICCAUT group or the free-drainage group. In the ICCAUT group, patients will undergo intermittent clamping of the urinary catheter before its removal. Each time the catheter is released, we will encourage the patients to actively initiate urination to facilitate complete bladder emptying. While patients in the free-drainage group will not undergo any specific training. The urinary catheter will be removed on the second postoperative day for both groups. The primary endpoint is the incidence of re-catheterization due to urinary retention. Secondary endpoints include urinary tract infection (UTI), time of first urination after catheter removal, residual urine volume after the first urination, postoperative morbidity and mortality within 30 days, as well as urinary function within 30 postoperative days.
This is a open-label, single-arm study to investigate the safety and efficacy of Total neoadjuvant chemotherapy with camrelizumab, an anti-PD-1 antibody drug following short course radiotherapy in patients with rectal cancer.
This clinical trial will be conducted as a single-center, open-label, Phase I/2 trial to evaluate the feasibility and safety of Yttrium-90 radioembolization (Y90-RE) in combination with a fixed dose of of immunotherapy (durvalumab - 750 mg) in subjects with liver-predominant, metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), which is mismatch repair proficient/microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS).
This is a single arm phase II study of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by local excision and post-operative chemoradiotherapy in patients with early stage, low rectal adenocarcinoma. After completion of pre-treatment tests/procedures (including pelvic MRI/ERUS; MRI is mandatory at baseline and other imaging is encouraged) and confirmation of eligibility, systemic therapy with FOLFOX will be administered for 12 weeks. 2 to 4 weeks after the chemotherapy, restaging of the primary tumor will be done to evaluate response to therapy (Pelvic MRI and /or sigmoidoscopy). Patients with disease progression or inadequate response to chemotherapy to allow local excision will continue with evaluation and treatment per the current standard of care (chemoradiation followed by TME). These patients will be considered failures for the primary endpoint of the study. Patients who respond to the neoadjuvant chemotherapy will proceed with local excision (open, TEMS or TAMIS), 6-12 weeks after the completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by 5-FU based chemoradiotherapy 4-12 weeks after local excision. Patients with positive margins at the time of local excision will also be treated as per standard of care and will be considered as failures. Number of patients who can undergo successful local excision with this approach will define the success of the strategy. After chemoradiation therapy post local excision, patients will be followed closely every 3 months for the first 3 years and then every 2 months for the next 2 years (history/physical, CEA and pelvic MRI). Patients who are deemed failures for the primary end-point will be followed as per standard of care, off-study.
