Purpose of the Study: This clinical study investigates whether a shorter or longer duration of systemic therapy before local treatment (surgery or radiation) results in better disease control in patients with esophageal or gastric cancer with a limited number of metastases, also known as oligometastases. Background In about 25% of …
This study aims to develop and evaluate a model for systematic and evidence-based cancer rehabilitation for people with esophageal and gastric cancer to provide conditions for a better quality of life and fewer cancer-related symptoms.
In this study, 100 patients with resectable head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (oral squamous cell carcinoma and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma) were enrolled, who were combined with tirelizumab, carboplatin and albumin-binding paclitaxel before and after surgery. Tumor tissues and paracancer tissues of patients were collected to observe the imaging …
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 …
Esophageal cancer and cancers of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) are among the most common malignancies worldwide. The outcome for these patients remains very poor. Patients with limited spread of their cancer (oligometastatic disease) have a better prognosis than those with widespread disease. Recent advances in treatment therapies, including use of …
GENCONCOR-2 is a translational research aimed to compare the molecular profile of primary tumors and their matched brain metastases in gastroesophageal cancers, including cancer of the esophagus, gastroesophageal junction, and stomach. The study is based on the previously established international GASTROBRAIN cohort (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07448493), which provides comprehensive clinicopathological and …
Severe obstructive jaundice caused by pancreatic head cancer usually requires preoperative biliary drainage, but its necessity and effectiveness are controversial, and specific strategies lack clear standards. This study proposed a new strategy for preoperative biliary drainage using serum prealbumin as the main evaluation index, and compared it with the traditional …
The development of cognitive dysfunction can profoundly affect HR-QoL as well as the possibility of societal participation and ability to work, and thereby relevantly impacts prospects for cancer survivorship. The aim of the study is to obtain improved understanding of the scope and magnitude of objective cognitive dysfunction in DTC …
This is an early-stage (Phase 1) clinical study testing a new study medicine called PF-08046033. The goal of the study is to understand how safe the medicine is, how well people tolerate it, how it behaves in the body, and whether it shows early signs of helping to treat cancer. …
