The Effect of exeRcise And Diet on Quality of Life in Patients With Incurable Cancer of Esophagus and Stomach (RADICES)
The survival of patients with incurable gastroesophageal cancer can extend over a year with anticancer therapy. However, the number of patients with deteriorating quality of life in this patient group steadily decreases over time during the treatment. Potentially reversible causes related to deterioration of quality of life are diminished muscle …
Comparing Proton Therapy to Photon Radiation Therapy for Esophageal Cancer
This trial studies how well proton beam radiation therapy compared with intensity modulated photon radiotherapy works in treating patients with stage I-IVA esophageal cancer. Proton beam radiation therapy uses a beam of protons (rather than x-rays) to send radiation inside the body to the tumor without damaging much of the …
Prospective Evaluation of Cornerstone Robotics Sentire Surgical System in Major Gastrointestinal and Urologic Surgery
Robotic assisted surgery has been performed for more than two decades with good success and safety profile. However, there was only one dominating robotic surgical system available in the past which led to high cost for robotic surgery. Recently, a new robotic surgical system (Sentire Robotic Surgical System) was introduced …
Intestinal Low Dose Radiotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy in Immune-resistant Metastatic Malignant Solid Tumors
Preclinical and clinical evidence suggests that intestinal low-dose radiotherapy (ILDR) may enhance antitumor immune responses by modulating the gut microenvironment, thereby improving the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICBs) in refractory solid tumors. Based on these findings, the investigators initiate a multicohort phase II clinical trial to evaluate the clinical …
Neratinib and Fam-Trastuzumab Deruxtecan in Advanced Gastro-esophageal Cancer Patients
This is Phase 1 dose finding trial with potential dose expansion to evaluate the safety, toxicity, recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Neratinib plus TDxD using a standard 3+3 dose escalation design in patients with metastatic or unresectable gastro-esophageal cancer that are HER2-overexpressing (IHC 3+ …
NBTXR3, Chemotherapy, and Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Esophageal Cancer
The purpose of this Phase I study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and safety profile of NBTXR3 activated by radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma. NBTXR3 is a drug that when activated by radiation therapy, may cause targeted destruction …
Immunotherapy in Combination With Chemoradiotherapy in Unresectable Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer
SCR-ESCC-02 is a multicenter, phase I/II clinical study to investigate the safety and efficacy of induction immunochemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy with anti-PD-1 therapy in patients diagnosed with locally advanced, unresectable esophageal cancer.
A Study of STRO-004 in Adults With Refractory/Recurrent Metastatic Cancer
This is a study to evaluate the safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity of STRO-004 in adults with metastatic cancer. This study includes 3 parts: Part 1A is a dose escalation study of STRO-004 monotherapy in selected tumor types known to commonly express Tissue Factor (TF). Part 1B is a cohort …
Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Versus Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy for Resectable Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer (HCHTOG1903)
Multimodal treatment combining surgery with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy is necessary to improve the chances of survival in patients with locally advanced thoracic esophageal cancer. However, there is no consensus about the neoadjuvant treatment for resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The aim of current randomized controlled clinical trail is …
PD-1 Inhibitor Combined With Radiotherapy for Elderly ESCC
Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is now considered to be the standard treatment modality for esophageal cancer patients who are medically unfit for surgery. However, elderly patients have limitations in their ability to tolerate concurrent chemoradiotherapy in comparison to nonelderly patients because of medical comorbidities and reduced functional reserve of organs. Immune checkpoint …
