Filter by:In line with improvements in oncologic outcome for patients with esophageal cancer, the attritional impact of curative treatment with respect to functional status and health-related quality of life (HR-QL) in survivorship is increasingly an important focus. Functional recovery after surgery for esophageal cancer is commonly confounded by anorexia and early satiety, which may reduce oral nutrient intake with consequent malnutrition and weight loss. One in three disease-free patients has more than fifteen percent body weight loss at three years after esophagectomy. The ESPEN Special Interest Group on cachexia-anorexia in chronic wasting diseases has defined sarcopenia as skeletal muscle index (SMI) of ≤39 cm2/m2 for women and ≤55cm2/m2 for men, while similar cut-off points have been validated in upper gastrointestinal and respiratory malignancies (less than 38.5 cm2/m2 for women and 52.4 cm2/m2 for men). The European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP) additionally recommends that assessment should also include determination of muscle function, for example gait speed or grip strength, where possible. The presence of sarcopenia is associated with increase treatment-associated morbidity, impaired HR-QL, reduced physical and role functioning, and increased pain scores in older adults. In addition, a previous longitudinal study demonstrated that the decline in HR-QL over a six year period in older adults was accelerated in the presence of sarcopenia. As such, sarcopenia may represent a modifiable barrier to recovery and subsequent retention of HR-QL and functional status, and may reinforce a persistent illness identity, among patients following potentially curative treatment for esophageal cancer.
There is no accepted standard therapy for patients with advanced gastric cancer who have progressed during or after second-line therapy. The role of 3rd line treatment in advanced gastric cancer has not been proven. As a novel target of gastric cancer, SMO overexpression is chosen in this study, and the investigators plan this study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vismodegib in gastric cancer. The doses of vismodegib are based on trials of basal cell carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to explore the clinical outcomes of Indocyanine Green Tracer using in laparoscopic gastrectomy with lymph node dissection for gastric adenocarcinoma(cT1-4a, N-/+, M0).
This study is for patients with non-resectable, recurrent, or metastatic well or moderately differentiated gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). The study will be conducted in two stages: 1) Safety Run-In and 2) Expanded Cohort. 1. Safety run-in: The first stage will include a safety run-in of 6 patients treated with pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenous (IV) every 3 weeks and lanreotide depot 90mg subcutaneous (SQ) every 3 weeks. Up to 6 patients at the Duke Cancer Institute will be accrued at the starting dose level. If one or less subject meets treatment-related discontinuation criteria (as specified in the protocol) during Cycle 1, then the study will proceed to the second stage, Expanded Cohort. 2. Expanded Cohort: Patients will be treated with pembrolizumab 200mg IV every 3 weeks and lanreotide depot 90mg SQ every 3 weeks as determined by the Safety Run-In Cohort.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rivoceranib plus best supportive care (BSC) compared to placebo plus BSC in participants with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer (GC).
An observational time and motion study in a clinical oncology setting is utilized in order to measure and compare product attributes and overall product efficiency between lanreotide and octreotide LAR.
This CLASS02-01 trial is a prospective, multicenter trial for laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) and open total gastrectomy (OTG) in patients with clinical stage I (T1N0M0、T1N1M0、T2N0M0) gastric cancer. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the early operative morbidity and mortality and determine the safety of LTG compared with OTG for clinical stage I gastric adenocarcinoma. The second purpose is to evaluate the recovery course and compare the postoperative hospital stay of the patients enrolled in this study.
The purpose of study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with Nivolumab in combination with tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium (S-1 therapy) or capecitabine + oxaliplatin (CapeOX therapy), in comparison with placebo in combination with S-1 therapy or CapeOX therapy, in pStage III gastric cancer (including esophagogastric junction cancer) after D2 or more extensive lymph node dissection.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination therapy of ramucirumab and nivolumab in participants with advanced or recurrent unresectable gastric or GEJ cancer.
This is an open-label, non-randomized, single-center, phase Ib/II study, evaluating efficacy and feasibility of cytoreductive surgery(CRS), extensive peritoneal lavage, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy(HIPEC) and post-operative intraperitoneal chemotherapy combination in gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis
