Filter by:TORCH-E2 is a prospective, multicentre, randomized phase II trial. 134 low-lying early (T1-3b/N0-1M0, distance from anal verge ≤5cm) patients will be recruited and assigned to Group 1 and Group 2 (1:1). Group 1 receives SCRT (25Gy/5Fx) followed by 4 cycles of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) chemotherapy and PD-1 antibody. Group 2 receives LCRT (50Gy/25Fx) followed by 2 cycles of CAPOX. A WW option can be applied to patients achieving cCR while surgery will be recommended for those who fail to achieve cCR. The primary endpoint is complete response (CR, pathological complete response [pCR] plus cCR) rate. The secondary endpoints include the grade 3-4 acute adverse effects (AE) rate, anal preservation rate, 3-year DFS rate, etc.
This is a single arm phase II study to explore the 3y LRFS and safety for high-risk early rectal cancer after local excision with short-course radiotherapy and chemo-immunotherapy.
Currently, there is no prediction scale available to identify patients with rectal neoplasms as technically complex in the middle and lower thirds; that is, those who are at high risk of affected circumferential margins and low quality of the mesorectum. The application of a predictive model that allows preoperative identification of the group of patients in whom optimal results in mesorectal quality and circumferential margin are less likely to be obtained through laparoscopic or minimally invasive surgery would enable the selection of patients who will require and justify all efforts and healthcare resources to improve surgical outcomes. Therefore, the investigators aim to create a predictive model to identify these patients, allowing the discrimination of which patients will benefit from different techniques, or even which ones would be opportune to initially consider an open approach.
Given the growing focus on preserving organ function and the utilization of neoadjuvant therapy, it is important to investigate and enhance the application of comprehensive neoadjuvant therapy in low rectal cancer. This approach aims to improve disease-free survival (DFS), while minimizing or circumventing the organ dysfunction and subsequent decline in quality of life associated with radical surgery. Consequently, we propose to initiate a multicenter clinical trial to examine the medium- and long-term effectiveness of complete neoadjuvant therapy (comprising either short-course radiotherapy or long-course chemoradiation, followed by consolidation chemotherapy with mFOLFOXIRI) in increasing organ preservation rates in patients with low rectal cancer.
Indication : Adult patients with intermediate low or mid rectal adenocarcinoma to be treated with total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) potentially eligible for rectal preservation. Primary objective is to assess efficacy of contact X-ray brachytherapy (CXB) in addition to TNT in order to increase survival with organ preservation (OP), in selected intermediate risk group of rectal adenocarcinomas (size from 3.5 to 6 cm, cT2N1 or T3N0-1, M0).
The investigators propose to use flexible endoscopy combined with transanal total mesorectal resection to further reduce anal injury.
This clinical study aims to assess feasibility, safety, tolerability, and compliance of a Nonessential Amino Acid Restriction (NEAAR) medical food in adult patients with locally advanced rectal cancer during standard of care short course radiotherapy followed by standard of care chemotherapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with radical chemoradiotherapy works to treat rectal squamous cell carcinoma (rSCC). lt will also learn about the safety of the regime. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with radical chemoradiotherapy improve survival prognosis? What is the complete response rate (CCR) of the regime？ Researchers will compare PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with radical chemoradiotherapy to previous study to see if this regime works to treat rSCCs. Participants will receive chemotherapy with DDP and 5-FU, immunotherapy with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and radiotherapy with a total dose of 50-54GY.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a dietary intervention (FEED-FF) that includes fermented foods (FF), among locally advanced rectal cancer patients, and to explore whether this diet can improve outcomes in rectal cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy (CRT).
The goal of this one-arm clinical trial is to implement and study the oncological outcomes of nonoperative management of rectal cancer having complete clinical response to neoadjuvant therapy. The main questions to answer are - if the oncological results of nonoperative management after Nordic practice in chemoradiotherapy indications differ from experiences elsewhere - what is the organ preservation rate - what is the local regrowth rate
