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 …
Real-World Study on Nano-Crystalline Megestrol Acetate for Cachexia in TKI-Treated Advanced Digestive Tumors
This study is a prospective, observational clinical study aimed at evaluating the efficacy of Megestrol Acetate for cachexia in patients with advanced digestive system tumors receiving TKI-based therapy.
Exploratory Study of Precise Therapy for Advanced Tumor Patients With Malignant Hydrothorax or Ascites by Using PTC Drug Sensitivity Testing
To explore the consistency between result of PTC drug screening tests and actual clinical outcome for patients with advanced malignancy.
Impact of CES1 Genotype on Capecitabine Exposure in Cancer Patients
In this study, the drug capecitabine is investigated. Capecitabine is commonly used to treat breast, colon, and stomach cancers. Capecitabine is taken in tablet form. In the body, capecitabine is converted into the active molecule that has anti-cancer effects. This molecule is called 5-FU. The transformation of capecitabine to 5-FU …
Personalized Patient Derived Xenograft (pPDX) Modeling to Test Drug Response in Matching Host
By obtaining clinical specimens from participants with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), colorectal cancer (CRC), high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), and other select tumor types to establish and profile as freshly implanted tumors in mice, the aim of this study is to identify agents with predicted activity in the …
REVOLUTION Surgery (REVOLUTION Surgery)
Some people with cancer suffer from muscle wasting, lose weight and feel tired. This process, termed cachexia, is a significant problem and can lead to a reduction in both quality and quantity of life. Cachexia is caused by interactions between the tumour and the patient. Historically, it was considered to …
A Multi-center Investigation of Family Health.
The current healthcare system is unable to identify burdened and vulnerable families affected by cancer, partly due to a lack of knowledge of how cancer affects family health during treatment and survivorship. Recent reviews have documented a general lack of cancer studies including both the patient and the family, and …
Analysis of PD-L1, TMB, MSI and ctDNA Dynamics to Predict and Monitor Response to Immunotherapy in Metastatic Cancer.
This is an observational clinical trial, aiming to investigate whether the ctDNA dynamics could predict early response to ICIs in patients with advanced-stage cancer. Moreover, conventional tumor markers PD-L1, TMB and MSI are to be investigated for their combined prognostic values in ICI treatment.
