Shanghai Clinical Cohort - Esophageal Cancer
A prospective cohort of patients who received esophagectomy for esophageal cancer in participating centers.
Effect of Premedication With Pronase on Mucosal Cleanliness During EGD
Gastric cancer and esophageal cancer are common malignant tumors that threaten people's life and health. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is an important tool for screening upper gastrointestinal tumors, especially early tumors, and an effective method for detecting other upper gastrointestinal lesions, including ulcers and polyps. However, during EGD examination, mucus and foam …
Molecular Analysis for Gastro-Esophageal Cancer: Multicenter Discrete Choice Experiment
The goal of this survey is to investigate the participants' preference for a specific screening/diagnostic tool to detect and assess gastro-esophageal cancer. The main question it aims to answer are: Which diagnostic modality is preferred by patients and the general population? Which features of the diagnostic test are most detrimental …
Effectiveness of Risk-based Sequential Screening for Esophageal and Gastric Cancer
To evaluate the feasibility, applicability, effectiveness, and health-economic value of the risk-based sequential screening modality for esophageal and gastric cancers, the investigators aim to initiate a community-based randomized controlled trial in Xun County, Henan Province, which is a high-risk region of upper gastrointestinal cancer (UGIC) in northern China. A total …
COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway Reduces Hypoxia During Sedated Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in Obese Patients: A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial
Hypoxia represents the prevailing adverse occurrence during the sedation of patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy with propofol. This is particularly true for obese patients, who have a higher incidence of hypoxia. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block …
Molecular Assessment for Gastro-Esophageal Cancer
The goal of this minimally invasive interventional study is to learn if oncometabolic biomarkers, detected in the exhaled breath and blood can identify early-stage gastro-oesophageal cancer in patient at risk for gastro-oesophageal cancer. The main questions this study aims to answer: Are oncometabolites proficient and reproducible enough to function as …
The Efficacy and Safety of the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Procedure
Hypoxia represents the prevailing adverse occurrence during the sedation of patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy with propofol. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block , oxygenation support, and oropharyngeal airway management. This device has been purposefully designed to …
Neoadjuvant Treatment Modalities in Esophageal Cancer
Esophageal cancer is the most prevalent cancer globally with poor survival outcome. The prognosis with surgery alone is poor, accounting for 30-40% of overall survival at 5 year. Either neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCT) or chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) has been shown as efficatious therapy to improve patients outcomes in esophageal or esophagogastric junction …
Chemoradiotherapy in Esophageal or Esophagogastric Junction Cancer
Definitive chemoradiotherapy is the standard of care in unresectable esophageal or esophagogastric cancer. A multidisciplinary approach, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, is important for these patients. Morerover, molecular targeting agents does not show clear efficacy in EC up to now. Nowadays, the pace of development of cancer immunotherapies is accelerating. Clinical …
Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Planned Surgery or by Surveillance and Surgery Only When Needed for Oesophageal Cancer
NEEDS is a pragmatic open-label, randomised, controlled, phase III, multicenter trial with non-inferiority design with regard to the first co-primary endpoint overall survival and superiority for the experimental intervention definitive chemoradiotherapy. A second co-primary endpoint is global health related quality of life (HRQOL) one year after randomisation. A third co-primary …
