Nutritional Support During Induction Therapy for Esophageal Cancer
Patients diagnosed with esophageal cancer have difficulty eating, as the food pipe becomes obstructed by the cancer. This may impair the ability for the patient to receive appropriate calorie intake, especially during administration of chemotherapy and radiation therapy given prior to surgical resection. A strategy is to place a feeding …
Deep-sea Fish Oil for Prevention of Acute Radiation-induced Esophagitis
Purpose:To observe and evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of deep-sea fish oil in preventing acute radiation-induced esophagitis (ARIE). Methods and Materials:A total of 120 patients with esophageal cancer treated with radiotherapy were randomly assigned (1:1) to treatment or control group. In the treatment group, 1g deep-sea fish oil was …
TRAstuzumab and Pertuzumab for HER2+ Resectable Oesophageal Cancer
Despite treatment according to the CROSS-regimen, median overall survival is less than four years (2.3 QALYs). The burden of disease is within the highest category (0.71 to 1.0). Also, no targeted treatment options are currently available, hampering personalized treatment for this patient population. TRAP-2 aims to address these needs by …
Clinical Study of Personalized mRNA Vaccine Encoding Neoantigen in Patients With Advanced Esophageal Cancer and Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
A single arm, open-label pilot study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of personalized mRNA tumor vaccine encoding neoantigen in Patients with advanced esophageal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer
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 …
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) .
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 …
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.
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, …
