This phase II trial compares leuprolide to goserelin for reducing estrogen production by the ovaries in pre- or peri-menopausal women with breast cancer. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Both leuprolide and goserelin lower the amount of estrogen made by the body. This may help stop the …
This pilot trial studies how well active surveillance and chemotherapy before surgery work in treating participants with stage II-III rectal cancer. Active surveillance involves monitoring participants for additional tumor growth after receiving cancer treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either …
This is an open-label, single arm, phase 2 study. The study is to evaluate the activity of combination therapy of hypofractionated radiotherapy, Irinotecan Hydrochloride Liposome plus 5-FU and leucovorin (NALIRIF), Anti-PD1 and target therapy in patients with locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC). The inclusion LRRC patients were failed to oxaliplatin …
The goal of this one-arm clinical trial is to implement and study the oncological outcomes of nonoperative management of rectal cancer having complete clinical response to neoadjuvant therapy. The main questions to answer are if the oncological results of nonoperative management after Nordic practice in chemoradiotherapy indications differ from experiences …
The standard treatment approach of localized rectal adenocarcinoma involves neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy followed by assessment for surgery and optional adjuvant chemotherapy. However, such patients who achieve complete of near complete clinical response after neoadjuvant therapy are increasingly being managed with the 'Watch-and-Wait strategy' in the recent years. Although safety …
A Single-Center, Single-Arm Study of Neoadjuvant Short-Course Radiotherapy with IL-2 Followed by Sequential Immunotherapy with CAPOX Combined with PD-1 antibody and IL-2 for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Rectal cancer patients who do not achieve a complete response to standard of care chemotherapy and radiation often require surgical resection as part of curative intent therapy. This study will evaluate whether additional "focal" radiation delivered internally (rectal brachytherapy) can provide complete responses and thus spare the requirement for surgery. …
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of a prehabilitation program for participants diagnosed with rectal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiation, followed by surgical resection. The names of the groups in this research study are: Group A: Prehabilitation program Group B: Usual Care
This prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial aims to assessing the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemoradiation plus Tislelizumab (PD-1 inhibitor) with or without Probio-M9 and subsequent TME surgery, by comparing assorted endpoints between two experiment groups (Experiment group 1: chemoradiation+PD-1 inhibitor+Probio-M9; Experiment group 2: chemoradiation+PD-1 inhibitor+placebo) with a control group …
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of papaverine (PPV) when given together with radiation therapy (RT) and tests how well it works in treating patients with rectal cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). PPV is an enzyme inhibitor, and …
