Autologous Muscle Fiber Fragment Injections
To regenerate functional anal sphincter muscle using muscle fiber fragments that contain muscle precursor cells (MPCs)
Role of Diet on the Microbiome of the Digestive System
This study is to learn more about how diet affects the microbiome (bacteria and microorganisms) of the digestive system. Researchers want to learn if this, in turn, has an effect on if and how people then develop colorectal cancer.
Confronting Cancer as a Community
This study aims to better understand the cause of colorectal cancer and how to find the best treatment for Hispanic patients with colorectal cancer. The genetic information in the blood and tissues may explain why patients who have the same type of cancer and receive the same treatment do not …
Treatment of Fecal Incontinence and Functional Evacuation Disorders Using Non-instrumental Biofeedback
Background. Rehabilitation and re-education using instrumental anorectal biofeedback are the main treatment of anorectal functional disorders producing incontinence and outlet obstructed defecation. These treatments imply intubation of patient and several sessions of treatment leading to high consumption of resources and costs. Hypothesis. A cognitive intervention based on original audiovisual programs …
Irinotecan Hydrochloride Liposome Injection (Ⅱ) Combined with Fluorouracil, Folinic Acid, Vermofenib and Cetuximab in First-line Treatment of BRAFV600E Mutated Advanced Colorectal Cancer
Based on the upstream signaling features of BRAFV600E and the bypass feedback mechanisms, considering the pro-apoptotic effects of chemotherapy and the synergistic effects of targeted therapy, previous IMPROVEMENT trial creatively explored a balanced chemotherapy-targeted combination approach (FOLFIRI + Vemurafenib + Cetuximab) in advanced colorectal cancer patients with BRAF V600E mutaiton …
Sacral Neuromodulation and Faecal Incontinence and Its Unknown Effect on the External Anal Sphincter
This innovative project aims to investigate structures and morphology of the external anal sphincter (EAS) as well as the impact of sacral neuromodulation (SNM) on the EAS morphology and biochemistry among patients with faecal incontinence (FI). SNM is a well implemented treatment for FI and consist of electrical stimulation of …
Organ Preservation in Rectal AdenoCa Using Hypofractionated Pelvic RT(Hypo-OPRA)
The combination of preoperative pelvic RT - either long-course chemoradiotherapy (LCCRT) or short-course radiotherapy (SCRT)- followed by surgery has been the standard of care in the curative treatment of locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the rectum for decades. Some patients however achieve a complete clinical response (cCR) to their preoperative treatment …
Mechanisms of Action on Rectal Motricity of Intrarectal Botulinum Toxin Injections
Previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of this treatment in certain patients suffering from fecal incontinence, but it is not yet reimbursed in this indication as it is still in the evaluation phase. Indeed, little is known about botulinum toxin mechanisms of action. The aim of this study is to …
Mechanisms of Improving Fecal Continence Muscles Motor Function
The investigators hypothesize that different continence muscles have different fatigue characteristics and fatigue induced by resisted contractions will result in significant increase in contractility of the continence muscles and improvement of fecal incontinence severity.
Patient-led Follow-up from Home After Surgery for Colorectal Carcinoma
The primary goal of the patient-led follow-up from home, is the improvement of quality of life and the reduction of stress in patients, while obtaining a more complete picture of their health status. A series of assessments are performed in the home setting: Blood withdrawal for CEA determination Quality of …
