Tissue Collection Protocol for Gastroesophageal Cancers
This proposed collection of primary tumor cells lines will benefit esophageal cancer research within the University Health Network. This collection of gastro-esophageal tumor samples will be used to grow primary tumor cell lines, which will provide researchers with ready samples of various gastro-esophageal cancers. This will help to address the …
Surgery As Needed for Oesophageal Cancer - 2
A prospective cohort study on active surveillance after neoadjuvant chemoradiation for oesophageal cancer: SANO-2 study.
Influence Mechanism of Tumor Microenvironment Changes on Neoadjuvant Therapy for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
To evaluate the predictive value and mechanism of inflammatory factors in peripheral blood on the prognosis of patients, and to explore the influencing factors of inflammation and tumor microenvironment on the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy for esophageal cancer. To explore the predictors of neoadjuvant therapy in patients …
Comparison of Endoscopy and Esophagram for the Routine Evaluation of Anastomosis After McKeown Esophagectomy
This retrospective cohort study reviewed patients who underwent McKeown esophagectomy. All patients routinely underwent either endoscopy or esophagram for the evaluation of anastomosis on postoperative day 7. The initiation of oral intake depended on the status of anastomosis according to the assessment result of endoscopy or esophagram. All patients were …
Patient Derived Organoids (PDOs) to Observe the Clinical Consistency of Personalized Neoadjuvant Therapy for Resectable Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Study Title: Observing Clinical Consistency of Personalized Neoadjuvant Therapy Using Patient-Derived Organoid Models (PDO) in Resectable Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Goal This study aims to explore whether patient-derived organoid models (PDO)-miniature tumors grown from patients' tissue samples-can accurately predict how individuals respond to personalized pre-surgery treatments (neoadjuvant therapy) for esophageal …
Personalized Nutrition Counseling and Nutritional Status of Esophageal Cancer and HNSCC Patients Undergoing CCRT
The purpose of the study is to improve the nutritional status of esophageal cancer patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy by the personalized nutrition counseling.Dietitians consult with participants which invited to be the experimental group and follow up weekly through communication software (Line) or telephone remote methods. Dietitians provide the dietary advice …
Study of the Prevalence of Osteo-metabolic Complications in Patients With Thyroid Cancer
This is a multicenter retrospective observational study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of osteo-metabolic complications in patients with thyroid cancer.
Semmelweis Esophageal Cancer Study: Noninvasive Prognostic Parameters in Patients With Oesophageal and Esophagogastric Junction Cancer
The objective of this observational study was to gain a deeper understanding of the epidemiology of the disease in Hungary through a broad analysis of patients with new-onset esophageal-oesophageal-stomach junction tumors, and to identify key parameters that could potentially influence the outcome of the disease and are closely correlated with …
Conebeam CT-based Online Adaptive Radio-Therapy for Esophageal Cancer (ARTEC)
Despite multimodal therapy, patients with esophageal cancer have poor prognosis with 5-year overall survival around 25%. Considering tumor-related death as main reason for high mortality rate in those patients, treatment-related cardio-pulmonary toxicities could also play a role in this regard. Online adaptive radiotherapy offers the possibility for daily re-planning and …
HRQOL in Thyroid Cancer and Thyroid Tumours
Background: Most patients with thyroid cancer have a long life expectancy, and it has been assumed among health professionals that therefore the quality of life (QOL) is good. Some European studies have shown that the quality of life among thyroid cancers is worse than the general population, and almost as …
