Filter by:The purpose of this research is to compare the amount and quality of tissue obtained by EUS-FNB when the device is flushed with an anticoagulant or "blood thinner" vs. saline a salt water solution as well as the use of a microsieve in order for the doctor to look at the tissue to check the acceptability of the specimens before sending for analysis. You will be randomly assigned (like a flip of a coin) to have either the blood thinner or the salt water solution placed within the needle being used to sample your abdominal tumor and to have either a sieve used or not. You will be one of 42 participants enrolled in this data collection study which includes 1 sites in the United States.
This early phase I trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib in treating patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma that has spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Lenvatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pembrolizumab and lenvatinib may kill more tumor cells.
By uploading pre-operative patient information and patient CT data to RUS™, a virtual surgical environment with patient-specific relief prediction models can be provided. First, after uploading the CT and clinical information of a gastric cancer patient diagnosed with gastric cancer through an actual endoscopic biopsy and scheduled for robotic total gastrectomy, RUS™ will operate normally to check whether patient-specific surgical navigation is available before or during surgery. In particular, when using the patient-specific surgery simulation system provided by RUS™, the CT information provides a patient-specific 3D environment well, so it will be checked regarding whether the surgeon can use it before or during surgery without any particular problems. Using RUS™ software, navigation information is used before or during surgery, and among these, parts that can be quantitatively compared with actual measurements will be evaluated as a secondary research goal. After the surgery, the investigators plan to check the amount of bleeding, duration of hospitalization, and the rate of complications by performing robot gastrointestinal resection using the navigation system to ensure that there are no problems with patient safety.
This clinical trial studies if enhanced outpatient symptom management with telemedicine and remote monitoring can help reduce acute care visit due to chemotherapy-related adverse events. Receiving telemedicine and remote monitoring may help patients have better outcomes (such as fewer avoidable emergency room visits and hospitalizations, better quality of life, fewer symptoms, and fewer treatment delays) than patients who receive usual care.
This phase I finds out the possible benefits and/or side effects of using magnetic tracer FerroTrace and the fluorescent dye indocyanine green to identify the lymph nodes that cancer is most likely to have spread to in patients with gastric cancer that are undergoing gastrectomy. Using FerroTrace in combination with the indocyanine green dye may help researchers better detect the disease.
To evaluate the short-term outcomes of single-incision plus one-port laparoscopic surgery (SILS + 1) versus conventional laparoscopic surgery(CLS) for distal gastric cancer whose clinical stage was cT1-3N0-2M0
Gastric cancer (GC),including cardia and noncardia gastric cancer, is responsible for over 480,000 new cases in 2020 and an estimated 370,000 deaths, making it the third most frequently diagnosed cancer and the third leading cause of cancer death in China. Majority of patients(63%) are presented with locally advanced gastric cancer (stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ) and the prognosis is poor. Previous studies have shown that patients with pathological complete response(pCR) following neoadjuvant therapy have longer survival. In 2019, Lancet Oncology published the FLOT4-AIO study which testified that perioperative chemotherapy with FLOT (5-FU/LV, oxaliplatin and docetaxel) regimen has improved pCR rate and prolonged progression free survival(PFS) and overall survival(OS) in patients with stage II/III gastric cancer. Moreover, PD-1 blockade such as nivolumab or pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy has shown higher objective response rate(ORR) as compared to chemotherapy alone in advanced gastric cancer. The nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel has been recommended as the second-line chemotherapy for unresectable or recurrent gastric cancer based on the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology(CSCO) guideline. When PD-1 antibody is applied, albumin-bound paclitaxel is considered as a better partner since no pretreatment of corticosteroids is needed. Thus, the investigators plan to conduct a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab (PD-1 antibody) combined with the FLOAP (albumin-bound paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil and leucovorin) regimen as the perioperative treatment of cT2-4 and/or N+ GC. The primary end point is pCR rate. The secondary end points include disease free survival(DFS), OS, ORR, R0 resection rate, incidence of adverse events(AE).
This study aims to evaluate the use of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) to detect circulating tumor DNA in gastric cancer patients after gastrectomy
The study is a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled clinical study. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy in second-line gastric cancer receiving prior anti-PD-1 therapy.
To determine the efficacy and safety of TAS-102 and Anlotinib in patients with metastatic gastric cancer who had been treated with ≥ 2 lines of prior standard chemotherapy
