A Multicenter Cancer Biospecimen Collection Study
This study will collect de-identified tumor samples, with correlated clinical/demographic data and tissue histology, from patients selected or scheduled for pre-treatment tumor biopsy or who have had a recent pre-treatment tumor biopsy. These specimens and clinical data may be used in subsequent studies for the development and validation of a …
Diagnosis of Multiple Cancer and Monitoring of Minimal Residual Tumors After Treatment Using Blood and High-Sensitivity Genetic Analysis Techniques
This is a combined prospective and retrospective observational study aiming to validate a highly sensitive and specific blood-based method for the early diagnosis and post-treatment monitoring of multiple cancers. The study leverages a newly developed sequencing method to improve the detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood, focusing on …
Collecting Blood Samples From Patients With and Without Cancer to Evaluate Tests for Early Cancer Detection
This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of …
Prediction Model of Response for CCRT in Esophageal Cancer
Retrospective review of old patients Analysis of prediction factors for concomitant chemo-radiotherapy in locally advanced and advanced esophageal cancer from 2005 to 2015 2. Prospective case-control study: RNA sequencing & miRNA microarray naive esophageal cancer patients who have a plan to receive concomitant chemo-radiotherapy acquirement of tissue, blood, clinical information …
Value of Pleural Lavage Cytology in Resectable Esophageal Carcinoma Eastern Cooperative Thoracic Oncology Projects 2005, ECTOP-2005)
Disease recurrence and metastasis are common after curative treatment for patients with esophageal cancer. Thus, it is important to identify the risk factors to predict disease recurrence and metastasis. Pleural lavage cytology (PLC) is reported to be associated with disease recurrence and patient survival in lung cancer, but the value …
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 …
CIRCULATing Biomarkers for Individualized Surgical Therapy in gastroEsophageal Cancer - Phase 1
This is an exploratory observational biomarker study in approximately 100 eligible patients with resectable adenocarcinomas of the esophagus and gastro- esophageal junction (GEJ) type I-II (GEAC) to investigate the difference deletion frequency of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) between peripheral veins and tumor-draining veins (primary endpoint), prognostic value, relevance of a …
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 …
Real-world Study on Comprehensive Treatment of Esophageal Cancer Based on Precision Radiotherapy
Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments for locally advanced esophageal carcinoma (EC). The accuracy of the existing imaging methods in diagnosing and predicting therapeutic efficacy is disappointing, which increases the difficulty in clinical decision-making. In this study, based on a continuous cohort of EC treated with radiotherapy, the clinical …
Surgery As Needed for Oesophageal Cancer - 2
A prospective cohort study on active surveillance after neoadjuvant chemoradiation for oesophageal cancer: SANO-2 study.
