Filter by:The KOrean QUality of life in Stomach cancer patients Study group (KOQUSS) made a method (KOQUSS-40) for assessing appropriately the quality of life of gastric cancer patients who have undergone gastrectomy, and developed a digital platform (Wecare) based on KOQUSS-40. In this study, we propose a randomized controlled trial to compare quality of life after gastrectomy in patients with and without smartphone app support.
This study aims to develop and validate a Random Survival Forest (RSF) model for predicting long-term survival in elderly patients following curative resection for gastric cancer. The study is a retrospective multi-center analysis involving patients aged 75 and above who underwent gastric resection from January 2009 to December 2018 at nine top-tier hospitals in China. An online prognostic tool is introduced to assist clinicians in predicting patient prognosis and customizing treatment and follow-up strategies.
Background：Gastric cancer is a globally important disease and the fifth most diagnosed malignant cancer in the world. Because it is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, gastric cancer has a high mortality rate, making it the third most common cause of cancer-related death. Hot spots of gastric cancer incidence and mortality exist in East Asia, Eastern Europe and South America. It is still an urgent problem to find new diagnostic and prognostic markers and better understand the molecular mechanism of gastric cancer. Although radical resection and systemic chemotherapy have shown great improvement, the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients is still depressing due to malignant proliferation and metastasis. Therefore, it is urgent to clarify the potential molecular mechanism of gastric cancer progression, which will contribute to the development of targeted therapy. Effective induction of tumor cell apoptosis is the most important feature of a new chemical agent for cancer treatment. There is increasing evidence that the cell cycle can act in concert with apoptosis to cause cell death under certain cellular stress conditions. A comprehensive understanding of the relationship between apoptosis and cell cycle is essential for developing effective cancer therapies. PWP1 is also known as endonuclein, which contains five WD40 repeated domains and belongs to the WD40-repeated superfamily. It is highly expressed in human pancreatic adenocarcinoma, where it functions as a cell-cycle regulator. However, the normal function of Pwp1 is largely unknown. Previous research data show that PWP1 plays a key role in regulating biological functions such as RNA processing, signal transduction, gene expression, vesicle transport, cytoskeleton assembly and cell cycle progression. Whether the high expression of PWP1 is ubiquitous in tumors, the relationship between the high expression and clinicopathological factors of tumors, and the mechanism of PWP1 in tumors are still unclear. Further exploration of the molecular mechanism of PWP1 in GC may provide new ideas and therapeutic targets for GC treatment in the future, and benefit clinical patients.
To evaluate the diagnostic performance of blood-based SPOT-MAS test in symptomatic individuals, the investigators sought to launch a prospective multicenter study, named K-ACCELERATE. The study aims to recruit 1,000 participants who develop symptoms and signs specific to the top five common cancer types including breast, colorectal, gastric, liver and lung cancer. Primary objective: Evaluate the performance of the SPOT-MAS test in detecting cancer in symptomatic populations. Secondary objectives: Evaluate the feasibility of incorporating SPOT-MAS as a triage test into primary care to increase the detection rates of malignant cancer while minimizing unnecessary referrals to invasive procedures.
This is a prospective multicenter comparative study, aiming to compare probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) and endoscopic biopsies in the diagnosis of the whole specific gastric lesion especially for distinguishing low grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN) from high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) and create an endoscopic image database for the follow-up research.
This study is a prospective, open-label, phase II clinical trial that aims to enroll patients with locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma who have not received any prior treatment and are candidates for surgery. The study drugs include RC48, Adebrelimab, Apatinib and S-1. The purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the combined coordinated treatment of multi-mechanism drugs for perioperative treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer with HER2 overexpression.
This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm Phase II study evaluating the efficacy of the myDIET software tool in the nutritional management of patients with localized and resectable esogastric junction cancer.
Gastric cancer, also known as stomach cancer, is a serious disease that affects the stomach. It's one of the most common types of cancer, and sadly, many people die from it each year. But there's hope! We can catch gastric cancer early with a special test called endoscopy. This test helps doctors find cancer or pre-cancerous changes in the stomach early, when it's easier to treat. However, not enough people get this test, especially in places where healthcare isn't easily available. That's why we're doing this study. We want to find out if we can encourage more people to get the endoscopy test for gastric cancer. We're going to try two different ways to encourage people to get the test. First, we'll give some people money or other incentives to help cover the costs of getting the test. Second, we'll give others information and support to help them understand why the test is important and how it can help them. We'll be doing this study in two provinces in China, where gastric cancer is a big problem. We'll ask thousands of people to join the study, and we'll randomly assign them to one of the two groups. Then, we'll see if more people in one group get the endoscopy test compared to the other group. Our hope is that by finding out what works best, we can help more people catch gastric cancer early and get the treatment they need. This could save many lives and make a big difference in fighting this disease.
As of now, although the safety of π-shaped anastomosis and the overlap method has been separately discussed in different contexts, there have been few studies considering a direct comparison of the results of these two methods. This article aims to explore the differences in the short-term therapeutic effects, surgical effectiveness, and safety between laparoscopic total gastrectomy with esophagogastrostomy using the overlap method and the π-shaped method. The goal is to provide new reference points for surgeons in the clinical decision-making process regarding the choice of anastomotic techniques during totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.
This is a multi-center, prospective, open label phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of standard first-line chemotherapy XELOX regimen combined with Sintilimab (anti-PD-1 antibody) and Lenvatinib in the treatment of advanced AFP-positive gastric cancer. This study was conducted in the Department of Gastrointestinal Medical Oncology, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital. Previous phase 1 dose escalation study (TJMUCH-GI-GC002) has demonstrated that such combinational pattern was well tolerated with promising efficacy. In this study, patients with AFP-positive and HER-2-negative advanced gastric cancer who had not received palliative systematic treatment in the past will be enrolled. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were treated with XELOX regimen combined with Sintilimab plus Lenvatinib every 3 weeks until disease progression or intolerable adverse reactions or death. The treatment regimen is XELOX chemotherapy (oxaliplatin 130mg/ m2, d1, capecitabine 850-1250 mg/m2, bid, d1-14, every 3 weeks) in combination with Sintilimab (>=60kg, 200 mg; <60kg, 3mg/kg; intravenous infusion, every 3 weeks) plus Lenvatinib (determined from previous phase 1 study, 16mg, orally once a day). Patients received regular and periodic reviews, with imaging evaluations every 6 weeks. Safety will be evaluated by AE and laboratory tests.
