SIBYL: obServation of Therapy Response With lIquid BiopsY evaLuation
The purpose of SIBYL is to generate clinical validity data for the ability of a future version of Guardant360 developed by Guardant Health to measure response to systemic therapy in patients with unresectable advanced solid tumors. It is necessary to collect clinical data points and treatment outcomes in order to …
PITCHER (Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Heterogeneity)
How epigenetic deregulation affects gene expression patterns in subclones of the same tumor is poorly known. Peritoneal Carcinomatosis (PC) is a condition in which multiple metastases of the same abdominal tumor develop in the peritoneal cavity and intra-peritoneal organs, thus defining different ecosystems of the same cancer. PITCHER addresses the …
Adaptive Anastomosis for Anterior Resection in Sigmoid and Proximal Rectal Cancer or Premalignant Lesions
Background: Anastomotic leakage (AL) after colorectal surgery remains a significant challenge, associated with increased morbidity, mortality, poor oncological outcomes, and reduced quality of life. Despite surgical advances, AL rates for colorectal procedures continue to range from 3% to 25%, especially in distal anastomoses. The commonly used cross-stapled circular anastomosis for …
Advanced Therapies for Liver Metastases
Liver metastases (MTS) are the main cause of death for patients affected by colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), thus representing the major unmet clinical need for these malignancies. Based on preliminary and published data, the investigators hypothesize that innovative immune, gene and cell therapy approaches might overcome …
Tumor Deposits in Colorectal Cancer and Its Prognostic Value in Survival and Metastasis
This study aims to evaluate the tumor deposits in colorectal cancer and its prognostic value in survival and metastasis
Digestive Biobank for Exploring Microbiota-host Interactions
Constitution of a biobank of tissues, whole blood and plasma samples and stools to identify markers associated with treatment response, postoperative morbidity including neuro-cognitive and mood complications and prognosis of Inflammatory Bowel disease or colorectal cancer.
Multidimensional Examination of Patients with Colorectal and Anal Cancer
The aim of our cross-sectional research is to assess changes in physical activity, functional capacity, and health status in individuals with colorectal and anal carcinoma using subjective measurement tools, with particular focus on those suffering from incontinence, through a cross-sectional study. Additionally, the research involves the Hungarian adaptation and validation …
Peritoneal Surface Malignancies - Characterization, Models and Treatment Strategies
The aim of this study is to identify biomarkers of disease recurrence and prognosis to optimize patient selection for treatment with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and through animal models to explore different treatment strategies for peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM).
An Audit of Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy
Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a common event in the natural history of colorectal and other digestive tract cancers. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) provides a promising therapeutic option for highly selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis arising from different malignancies such as colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, or …
Establishing a ctDNA Biomarker to Improve Organ Preserving Strategies in Patients With Rectal Cancer
This study measures the levels of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in patients with stage II-III rectal cancer before, during, and after treatment to find out if the presence or absence of ctDNA in patient's blood using the Signatera test can be used to gauge how different treatments may affect rectal …
