The primary objective of this pharmacokinetics study is to compare the maximum concentration level of paclitaxel in patients with low/sarcopenic skeletal muscle area (SMA), at the end of a 2-3 hour paclitaxel infusion, to the maximum level in patients with normal SMA at the end of a standard 1-hour infusion …
Surgery with or without neoadjuvant therapy is usually used as the treatment for resectable esophageal cancer or esophageal- gastric junction cancer. Patients who have a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy and have an incomplete (R1) resection or have metastatic lymph nodes in the resection specimen (N+) are especially at risk …
When using highly conformal radiotherapy techniques, such as proton therapy, a controlled breathing pattern and a minimal breathing amplitude could greatly benefit the treatment of mobile tumors. This reduction in tumor motion may be achieved with the use of a ventilator that is able to regulate and modulate the breathing …
Chronic stress refers to a special emotional state caused by unexpected stress for a long time, with an increasing incidence in the population. It can cause the body to release hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. Tumor patients often experience changes such as psychological and emotional abnormalities, decreased quality of …
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out about the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of DM005 for patients with the advanced solid tumors. DM005 is an experimental drug which is not approved by health authorities for the treatment of advanced solid tumors. For each participant, there will be …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy can improve outcomes in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who have already received external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), chemotherapy, and the immune therapy drug nivolumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
Female patients with early onset (\<50 years old) pelvic malignancies such as uterine and rectal cancers are rising in incidence, which often requires pelvic radiation; many of these patients are premenopausal and at a high risk of premature ovarian failure from radiotherapy. Premature ovarian failure carries significant cardiac, musculoskeletal, sexual, …
This study aims to establish and optimize the trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (Trop2)-targeted immuno-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (immunoPET/CT) imaging method and its physiological and pathological distribution characteristics, based on which the diagnostic efficacy of the above imaging agents in solid tumors (including uroepithelial cancer, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, lung …
Despite enormous advances in thoracic surgery and oncology, two critical issues concern patients undergoing curative-intent surgery for lung, gastric and esophageal cancer: first, a majority (\~60%) of patients experience minor and major adverse events occurring during and in the days following surgery; second, patients worry about the significant risk of …
This randomized phase II trial will characterize the efficacy, adverse event (AE) profile, and safety of two regimens of 5-FU given as 2L+ treatment to patients with RM-HNSCC. Eligible patients for this trial will have previously received platinum and PD-1 inhibitor therapy. The experimental regimen (Arm 1) will comprise the …
