Our GAIN project comprises four core work packages (WPs): WP1. Nation-level randomized controlled trial; WP2. Development of an innovative AI tool; WP3. Novel microsimulation modelling; WP4. Patient inclusion. The nation-level multi-center tandem randomized controlled trial (WP1) will contribute to a better understanding of how the real-time AI algorithm can reduce miss rate of early gastric cancer and dysplasia during gastroscopy. Moreover, the innovation project will contribute to development of a novel AI tool (WP2) that can stratify the risk of gastric cancer by identifying in vivo precancerous conditions. Furthermore, a microsimulation modelling will allow us to predict how the use of AI can prevent gastric cancer and affect cost and patients' burdens. The assessment of the balance between benefits and harms is quite crucial especially for this type of medical device because the value of innovative tools is sometimes overestimated due to stakeholders' enthusiasm (WP3). Finally, we will take care of patients' perspective throughout the study project by including patient organization in both WP1, 2, and 3 (WP4).
Gastric cancer remains a major challenge to public health on a global scale. H. pylori related cancer burden contributes to the largest proportion of cancer cases attributable to infections in Europe. Considering its absolute burden and persisting disparities, in addition to the substantial prevalence of H. pylori infection worldwide that is treatable, gastric cancer is a logical target for urgent action for prevention. Population-based H. pylori test-and-treat has therefore been proposed as a strategy for gastric cancer prevention. To fill the gaps in knowledge about gastric cancer prevention through H. pylori screening and eradication in younger adults, a study of a population-based H. pylori test-and-treat strategy in Ireland, Croatia, Latvia, Poland, Romania and Slovenia. Main goals of this study are to assess future program processes, feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness. In total of 6,800 adults aged 30-34 will be tested for H. pylori infection. They will be randomly selected to represent the chosen population and invited to participate in the study based on informed consent. Confirmed infections will be treated by available combined therapy in line with treatment guidelines and the success of eradication will be retested during a control check-up. Patients who will provide their consent to participate will undertake an interview about the risk factors in early childhood and their habits regarding alcohol consumption and use of tobacco. Compliance to testing and treatment, treatment results, adverse effects and reasons for dropping out will be additionally monitored. Gathered data will be analysed in alignment with our research questions. The investigators will disseminate reports and present the results to both the general public and the scientific community in order to foster future developments in gastric cancer prevention.
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan for the treatment in locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic patients with selected HER2 overexpressingsolid tumors which are not eligible for curative therapy.
The overall aim is to utilize multi-omics approach to identify novel etiopathogenesis and early detection biomarkers for stomach cancer precursor lesions. To achieve this aim, first the investigators will use stored serum samples to perform metabolomics profiling among 12,599 twin subjects, among whom 1034 were deemed to have chronic atrophic gastritis based on measured pepsinogen I and II levels. Logistic regression will be used to search for metabolites related to the risk of chronic atrophic gastritis. Second, the investigators will further measure serum proteome by using two quantitatively precise proteomics assays, among the above-mentioned twin subjects. Identified protein biomarkers will be combined with metabolomics biomarkers to create a prediction model for chronic atrophic gastritis. The results will hopefully improve our understanding of the etiological factors and provide promising early detection biomarkers for stomach cancer precursor lesions.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy has become the standard neoadjuvant regimen for locally advanced G/GEJ cancer and has been recommended by a series of treatment guidelines. Although with clinical benefits of neoadjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, the pCR and long-term survival rates are still unsatisfactory and perioperative treatment mode for locally advanced G/GEJ cancer still needs further optimization. In this study, we will explore the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy combined with tislelizumab and LDRT in the neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced G/GEJ cancer.
The goal of the Dose Escalation phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or preliminary recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of NKT3447 in adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The goal of the Expansion phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and the preliminary antitumor activity of NKT3447 in adult subjects with cyclin E1 (CCNE1) amplified ovarian cancer at the RDEs selected in Dose Escalation and to determine the preliminary recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).
This research study is being conducted to improve the quality of care of participants who have a diagnosis of gastrointestinal cancer (anal, colon, rectal, esophageal, stomach, small bowel, appendix, pancreas, gall bladder, liver, neuroendocrine tumor of gastrointestinal origin). This study has 3 components as follows- 1. Ensuring appropriate biomarker testing and evidence-based care: Biomarkers are molecules in the tumor or blood that indicate normal or abnormal processes in participant's body and may indicate an underlying condition or disease. Various molecules, such as DNA (genes), proteins, or hormones, can serve as biomarkers since they all indicate something about participant's health. Biomarker testing can also help choose participant's treatment. Additionally, a tumor board will be conducted periodically to provide treatment recommendations to participant's treating physician. Participants will receive standard-of-care treatment if participant enroll in this study. Participant will not receive any experimental treatment. 2. Assistance with clinical trial enrollment. The study team will help participants enroll in a clinical trial appropriate for participant's condition. However, enrolling in a clinical trial is totally up to the participant. 3. Health literacy: The study team will provide information relevant to participant's diagnosis to enrich participant's understanding of participant's condition and treatment. Investigator will provide questionnaires to assess participant's understanding before and after participant's have been provided with educational/informational material appropriate for participant's diagnosis.
Medical advancements are enhancing the survival rates of individuals with gastric cancer. The growing population of gastric cancer survivors underscores the importance of managing treatment-related after-effects and side effects. Diminished physical function in cancer patients, particularly following gastric cancer surgery, is linked to increased mortality. The substantial decline in physical activity post-surgery contributes to a notable reduction in cardiorespiratory fitness and lower extremity muscle strength. Early postoperative exercise has demonstrated positive outcomes in colorectal cancer patients, facilitating early hospital discharge and supporting long-term recovery. However, there is a paucity of research on the efficacy of early postoperative exercise in the context of gastric cancer. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the impact of early postoperative exercise on physical function following gastric cancer surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of intraoperative intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) device usage in preventing lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery.The main question it aims to answer is provide a reference basis for determining the efficacy of IPC application during gastrointestinal surgery for preventing lower extremity DVT in patients. Participants are patients who require gastrointestinal surgery, specifically for the resection of gastrointestinal tumors. They will be divided into a control group and an experimental group. The experimental group will use an Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) device during surgery, while the control group will receive standard treatment. The objective is to observe whether the use of IPC during surgery can prevent the formation of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) or lower the Risk of DVT.
