Filter by:Enteral immunonutrition (EIN) has been gaining increasing attention, but data of its immune and anti-inflammatory function in patients undergoing gastrectomy for gastric cancer are poorly investigated. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of EIN on immune function, inflammation response and nutrition status when compared to standard enteral nutrition (SEN). The investigators believe that the proportion of cluster of differentiation 4 T-cells(CD4＋T-cells), cluster of differentiation 3 T-cells(CD3＋T-cells) and the counts of CD4＋ / cluster of differentiation 8 T-cells (CD8＋), immunoglobulin G(IgG), immunoglobulin M(IgM), and immunoglobulin A (IgA) were larger in EIN group, while the level of WBC, CRP and TNF-α were lower and nutritional status was similar.
Gastric GISTs are rare neoplasms that require excision for cure. Although the feasibility of laparoscopic resection of gastric GIST less than 2cms has been established, the feasibility, safety and long-term efficacy of these techniques for larger lesions are unclear. Investigators hypothesized that laparoscopic resection of gastric GISTs even for larger lesions is feasible & results in low perioperative morbidity and an effective long-term control of the disease.
This is a feasibility, randomised controlled trial (RCT) of a person-centred care planning intervention involving patients recently diagnosed with a poor prognosis cancer who are starting a palliative oncology treatment in a Scottish regional cancer centre.
The main objective of the Phase 2 part of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of bemarituzumab (FPA144), a targeted antibody, in combination with modified FOLFOX6 compared to placebo in combination with modified FOLFOX6 in participants with advanced gastrointestinal cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of investigational drug relatlimab plus nivolumab in combination with chemotherapy in participants with unresectable, untreated, locally advanced or metastatic gastric or GEJ cancer.
The primary objective of this study is to obtain de-identified, clinically characterized, whole blood specimens to evaluate biomarkers associated with cancer for diagnostic assay development.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCAGN02390 in participants with select advanced malignancies.
A Phase 1b, open-label, dose escalation study of PRS-343 in combination with atezolizumab in patients with HER2-positive advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
Background: People with hereditary gastric cancer syndrome are at increased risk of getting cancer in their stomach. These people should have regular endoscopies and biopsies to check for cancer if they are choosing to keep their stomach. Researchers want to see if they can improve the detection of cancer by endoscopy. Improved endoscopies could better detect early signs of cancer in people with this syndrome. Objective: To see if a small microscope attached to an endoscope to inspect the stomach lining is better than regular endoscopy to find the first signs of cancer in the stomach. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older who have a personal or family history of a hereditary gastric cancer syndrome or have a mutation that is known to lead to gastric cancer Design: Participants will be screened over the phone or in person with: - Personal and family medical history - Review of their medical records Participants will have a physical exam. Then they will be put under general anesthesia. They will have an endoscopy. A lighted tube will be inserted into the mouth and go down to the stomach. First, the standard device will be used. Then participants will be injected with fluorescein. This is a contrast agent. Then the microscope will be added to the tube and the endoscopic evaluation of the stomach will be repeated. During the procedure, biopsies will be taken from different areas of the stomach. Participants will be observed for a few hours after the procedure. About 14 days after the endoscopy, participants will be asked to return to the clinic for a follow-up visit. This visit can also be conducted over the phone.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for advanced-stage gastric cancer is justified by various studies, however, there was not any large scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) to support it until German oncologist introduced a novel regimen(FLOT regimen) in 2017. Investigator assessed the FLOT regimen for safety and feasibility in Chinese gastric cancer patients.
