POP-UP: a Single-arm, Two-cohort Study: Trimodal Prehab for Upper GI and Pancreatic Cancer
This is a multicenter, two-cohort, open-label, single-arm feasibility study. The primary objective is to assess the feasibility of the 8-week trimodal prehabilitation program alongside perioperative triplet chemotherapy in eligible patients with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) or oesogastric cancer (OGC) .
Robot-assisted Thoracic Approach Versus Open Transthoracic Esophagectomy .
This is a randomized controlled trial designed to compare robot-assisted thoracic approach with open transthoracic esophagectomy (Ivor Lewis technique) as a surgical treatment for resectable esophageal cancer. If our hypothesis is proved correct, robot-assisted thoracic approach will result in a lower percentage of respiratory and overall postoperative complications, lower blood …
Fluorescence Image Guided Foregut Surgery
A high number of resected lymph nodes is an independent prognostic factor for improved survival after esophagectomy or gastrectomy for cancer. The quality of the lymphadenectomy is operator-dependent, as is the evaluation of the vascularization of the digestive structures that are anastomosed to restore digestive continuity after esophago-gastric resection. The …
Chemoradiotherapy in Unresectable Esophageal Cancer
This phase I/II clinical study is designed to evaluate the 1 year local tumor control rate of chemoradiotherapy using albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin in unresectable esophageal squamous cell carcinomas based on Nutritional Risk Screening NRS2002.
Magnetic Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping in Upper Gastro-Intestinal Cancer: A Feasibility Clinical Investigation
This is a multi-centre, partially blinded, side-by-side comparator study to assess the safety and tolerability, feasibility, and potential added diagnostic and clinical value of using the FerroTrace® and FerroMag Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping (SLNM) System for mapping sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in subjects with gastric, gastric-oesophageal junction, and oesophageal cancers, …
A Study of Pembrolizumab With Trastuzumab and Chemotherapy in People With Esophagogastric Cancer
The purpose of this study to find out whether adding trastuzumab and pembrolizumab to standard chemotherapy is an effective treatment for resectable HER2+ esophagogastric cancer.
Brachytherapy With Radiotherapy and Immunotherapy: Guided HDR Trial in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy can improve outcomes in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who have already received external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), chemotherapy, and the immune therapy drug nivolumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
Postoperative Radiotherapy Followed by Immunotherapy for Locally Advanced Esophageal Carcinoma
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is a common malignancy in China. Although neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by esophagectomy remains a standard modality for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, esophagectomy followed by postoperative radiotherapy is also prevalent in China. Several retrospective studies demonstrated that postoperative radiotherapy could improve the prognosis of patients. …
Serplulimab Combined With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy for Locally Advanced Treatment Esophageal Cancer in Old Age
This study is a Single Arm, Prospective, Exploratory, Single Center Phase II Clinical Study to evaluate the effectiveness of the combination of Serplulimab and Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of elderly patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer who cannot be treated surgically.Subjects can be enrolled into this study only if …
Focal Cryoballoon Ablation for Malignant Dysphagia
Rationale Dysphagia is commonly encountered in patients with esophageal carcinoma who are no candidates for treatment with curative intent. It often has a considerable impact on quality of life and can cause malnourishment. Current palliative treatments mainly include esophageal stenting and radiotherapy, but these can be associated with substantial drawbacks …
