Evaluation of Quality of Life and Utilities Following Surgical Treatment of Stage I-IV Rectal Cancer
This study evaluates quality of life and utilities following surgical treatment of stage I-IV rectal cancer. This study may help researches learn more about quality of life in patients who have or have had rectal cancer.
The Effect of Multimodal Treatment of Rectal Cancer on Circulating Tumor Cells: A Prospective, Observational Study
The prospective study will focus on patients undergoing multimodal treatment for rectal cancer. The main objective of the study will be to monitor changes in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the peripheral blood of patients during multimodal treatment. For each patient enrolled in the study, peripheral blood samples will be …
Short-course Radiotherapy Followed by AK112 and CAPOX as Neoadjuvant Therapy for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of short-course radiotherapy followed by AK112 in combination with CAPOX as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer
Exploring the Treatment Duration of PD-1 Neoadjuvant Therapy in Stage II-III dMMR Rectal Cancer
This study aims to explore the optimal number of cycles of PD-1 monotherapy required at minimum, under the premise of ensuring pathological complete response (pCR) among patients with dMMR/MSI-H rectal cancer. Participants will receive preoperative monotherapy with PD-1 antibodies, with regular reassessments every 2 cycles. Surgical intervention will be performed …
Iparomlimab/Tuvonralimab Integrating With Total Neoadjuvant Therapy for pMMR/MSS Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer (IT-TNT)
In colorectal cancer (CRC), ICIs show strong therapeutic associations with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) status, while patients with proficient mismatch repair/microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS) tumors exhibit poor responses. Dual immunotherapy may represent a promising strategy for MSS populations. The Dutch NICHE trial reported a 27% pathological response rate (4/15) in MSS CRC …
CAPOX and PD-1 Antibody Combined With or Without Radiotherapy for MSS Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
TORCH-iTNT is a prospective, multicentre, randomized phase II trial. 198 LARC (T3-4/N+M0, distance from anal verge ≤12cm) patients will be treated with total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) and assigned to Group A and Group B (1:1). Group A receives 6 cycles of Toripalimab combined with CAPOX (ToriCAPOX). Group B receives SCRT …
Vaginal DHEA to Improve Vaginal Health After Radiation for Women With Gynecologic, Anal or Rectal Cancer
This phase II trial tests the feasibility and side effects of vaginal DHEA to improve vaginal health after radiation for women with gynecologic, anal or rectal cancer. Treatment of cancers with radiation to the abdomen can influence the vaginal microbiome (any bacteria, virus, or other organisms found in the vagina). …
Short Course Radiation Therapy and Combination Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Stage II-III Rectal Cancer
This phase I trial investigates how well short-course radiation therapy followed by combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with stage II-III rectal cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as leucovorin, fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine, work in different ways to …
Antegrade Intestinal Fluid Reinfusion for Prevention of Low Anterior Resection Syndrome After Low Anterior Resection: a Single-Center, Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if antegrade intestinal fluid reinfusion works to prevent low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) in patients with prophylactic ileal stoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does it work to prevent LARS by antegrade intestinal fluid reinfusion before performing the …
Comparison of Transanal Irrigation and Glycerol Suppositories in Treatment of Low Anterior Resection Syndrome
The study is a multicentre randomized controlled trial with the objective to compare the effect of transanal irrigation with glycerol suppositories in patients suffering from major Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS).
