Consolidation of Toripalimab After Chemoradiotherapy in Elderly Esophageal Cancer (EC-CRT-007)
Although definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard treatment option for unresectable locally advanced esophageal cancer, elderly patients tolerate intravenous concurrent CRT less well with age and comorbidities. Previous trials have demonstrated that CRT with oral S-1 was tolerable and provided significant survival benefits over radiotherapy alone in elderly patients with …
EQUITY GI: A Prospective Study to Enhance Quality, Inclusivity, and Trial Participation in Black Patients With Gastrointestinal Cancer.
This research study is being conducted to improve the quality of care of participants who have a diagnosis of gastrointestinal cancer (anal, colon, rectal, esophageal, stomach, small bowel, appendix, pancreas, gall bladder, liver, neuroendocrine tumor of gastrointestinal origin). This study has 3 components as follows- Ensuring appropriate biomarker testing and …
Evaluating the Effect of Itraconazole on Pathologic Complete Response Rates in Esophageal Cancer
Esophageal cancer, which has a low 5-year overall survival rate for all stages (<20%) , is increasing in incidence. Previous studies have shown that the Hedgehog (Hh) and AKT signaling pathways are activated in a significant proportion of esophageal cancers. Itraconazole, a widely used anti-fungal medication, has been shown to …
A Study to Learn About the Study Medicine Called PF-08046876 in People With Advanced Solid Tumors
The purpose of the study is to explore the safety and effects of the study drug (PF-08046876) in people diagnosed with advanced cancer of the bladder, lung, head and neck, esophagus, or pancreas. PF-08046876 is an investigational anticancer therapy called an 'antibody drug conjugate' or 'ADC'. ADCs are anticancer drugs …
Low-Dose Involved-Field Radiotherapy Plus Immunochemotherapy for ESCC
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether low-dose involved-field radiotherapy combined with immunochemotherapy can reduce treatment-related adverse effects, enhance progression-free survival (PFS), and improve overall survival (OS) in patients with locally advanced, unresectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The key questions this study seeks to address are: Can …
Radiotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Esophageal Cancer Responding to PD-1 Inhibitor Plus Chemotherapy
The treatment efficacy for stage IVb esophageal cancer has been improved through chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy recently. On this basis, the investigators intend to conduct a prospective, multicenter phase II clinical trial to assess whether radiotherapy could further improve the survival of patients with metastatic esophageal cancer responding to PD-1 …
RAMIE Versus MIE for Resectable Esophageal Cancer, a Randomized Controlled Trial (ROBOT-2 Trial).
BACKGROUND: For patients with esophageal cancer, radical esophagectomy with 2-field lymphadenectomy is the cornerstone of the multimodality treatment with curative intent. Both, conventional minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) and robot assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) were shown to be superior compared to open transthoracic esophagectomy considering postoperative complications. However, no randomized …
Novel Strategy for Early Detection of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
In the current protocol, we propose a study to evaluate a novel, combined esophageal sponge-methylation biomarker strategy for the early detection of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) as well as its precursor, esophageal squamous dysplasia (ESD). This strategy leverages the 'EsophaCap', a swallowable, retrievable sponge, with subsequent evaluation of the …
Patient Preference for Subcutaneous vs. Intravenous Immune Therapy
The study will evaluate patient and Health Care Professional- reported preference for Subcutaneous (SC) compared with IV nivolumab administration or similarly for SC compared with IV pembrolizumab.
Adding Nivolumab to Usual Treatment for People With Advanced Stomach or Esophageal Cancer, PARAMUNE Trial
This phase II/III trial compares the addition of nivolumab to the usual treatment of paclitaxel and ramucirumab to paclitaxel and ramucirumab alone in treating patients with gastric or esophageal adenocarcinoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body …
