Filter by:This study is a prospective, single arm, multi-center phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of perioperative SOX combined with toripalimab in participants with Epstein-Barr Virus-associated locally advanced gastric or esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma.
This clinical trial studies the effect of cancer directed therapy given at-home versus in the clinic for patients with cancer that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Currently most drug-related cancer care is conducted in infusion centers or specialty hospitals, where patients spend many hours a day isolated from family, friends, and familiar surroundings. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. The logistics and costs of navigating cancer treatments have become a principal contributor to patients' reduced quality of life. It is therefore important to reduce the burden of cancer in the lives of patients and their caregivers, and a vital aspect of this involves moving beyond traditional hospital and clinic-based care and evaluate innovative care delivery models with virtual capabilities. Providing cancer treatment at-home, versus in the clinic, may help reduce psychological and financial distress and increase treatment compliance, especially for marginalized patients and communities.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the risk factors associated with incident HGD/GA in patients with CAG with or without IM who are enrolled in endoscopic surveillance, as well as to compare GA incidence according to the OLGA and OLGIM scales in patients 18 years or older. . The main questions it aims to answer are: - What risk factors are associated with incident HGD/GA in patients with CAG with or without IM? - What is the comparative HGD/GA incidence according to the OLGA and OLGIM scales?
In order to improve postoperative ileus in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery, digestive medications and prokinetics have been routinely used. Among them, mosapride citrate is widely used as a representative drug, as it is a 5-hydroxytryptamine 4 receptor agonist that increases gastrointestinal motility. Prucalopride succinate (dihydrobenzofurancarboxamide) is a type of 5-hydroxytryptamine 4 receptor agonist that has a higher affinity for the 5-HT4 receptor compared to mosapride (a benzamide derivative) which belongs to the same class of drugs. Prucalopride succinate has been demonstrated to increase both gastric and colonic motility through in vivo and in vitro studies. As mentioned earlier, it exhibits high specificity for the 5-HT4 receptor. The 5-HT4 receptor is not expressed in the gastric mucosa but is expressed at low concentrations in the small intestine, whereas it is highly expressed in the colonic mucosa. Therefore, prucalopride is widely used as a therapeutic agent for chronic constipation by increasing colonic motility. Furthermore, Prucalopride succinate stimulates the 5-HT4 receptors present in the nerve terminals of the myenteric plexus, promoting the release of acetylcholine. The released acetylcholine acts on α7nAch receptors located on the surface of enteric smooth muscle cells, inhibiting inflammatory responses and reducing postoperative ilues. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) conducted on 110 patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery demonstrated that prucalopride succinate showed significant improvement in gastrointestinal motility compared to the control group. Currently, mosapride citrate is widely used as a prokinetic agent in clinical practice. However, preliminary studies have shown no significant efficacy, and when comparing abdominal X-ray images taken on the third day after surgery, there is no significant difference compared to the placebo group. As a result, it can be observed that the recovery of gastrointestinal motility after surgery is not primarily due to small bowel motility but rather delayed gas passing caused by colon motility. Therefore, it can be assumed that using drugs that increase colon motility may be effective in improving gastrointestinal motility after surgery.
To provide preventive and therapeutic strategies for participants with gallstones after gastric cancer by comparing the risk of postoperative gallbladder stone formation with two different resection ranges using the Roux-en-Y reconstruction modality in radical gastric cancer surgery.
The present clinical trial was designed to explore the effect of postoperative physical exercise combined with enteral nutritional supplement on 3-year disease-free survival in patients with advanced gastric cancer.
ECDNA is almost non-existent in normal cells, but exists in nearly half of human cancer cells, indicating that studying such abnormal DNA is of great significance for our understanding of tumor formation and evolution. The changes in ecDNA expression in intestinal type gastric cancer may be closely related to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer. Dynamic monitoring of changes in ecDNA expression in the gastric mucosa may help predict the occurrence of gastric cancer and guide subsequent treatment. By collaborating with multiple endoscopic centers to conduct gastroscopy biopsies on patients with gastric precancerous lesions, we aim to further explore the role of ecDNA in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer through continuous follow-up.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new PET tracer in patients with HER2-positive breast or gastric cancer. This tracer is made of radioactively labeled trastuzumab, and can show where HER2 is present in the body using a PET-scan. For this research, the investigators make PET-scans in people with HER2-positive, metastasized breast- or gastric cancer. The investigators will investigate if the new HER2-tracer correctly shows all tumor lesions. In the future, this method may be useful to help predict who will benefit from certain HER2-directed therapies. Participants will be injected with the radioactive tracer once. After injection, participants will undergo 3 PET-scans. Each PET-scan will take a maximum of 60 minutes. The PET-scans are on separate days within a week after injection of the tracer (e.g. 1 day, 2 days and 4 days after injection). Furthermore, the investigators will take 7 blood samples (5 mL each). Participants are not required to stay at the hospital. The first 3 participants will undergo an extra PET-scan 1 - 2 hours after injection. The amount of radioactivity injected will be 37 MBq (± 10%).
The Purpose of This Study is to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Cadonilimab（AK104） in Combination With SOX as Neoadjuvant Therapy for Patients With Resectable Locally Advanced Gastric or Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate a new drug, HTL0039732, that will be administered on its own (as a monotherapy) and in combination with atezolizumab or with other approved anti-cancer therapies, in participants with advanced solid tumours.
