Short-Course Radiotherapy Followed by Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy, HLX07and Serplulimab in LARC
The study is a multicenter, open-label, phase II clinical study, and the purpose of the study is to explore the complete response rate (CR, Defined as pathological complete response (pCR) + Clinical complete response (cCR)) of patients with RAS/BRAF wild type locally advanced rectal cancer(LARC) treated with short-term radiotherapy, sequential …
Pre-therapeutic MRI Assessment of Early-Stage Rectal Cancer and Significant Rectal Polyps to Avoid Major Resectional Surgery
When a patient is diagnosed with a rectal (bowel) polyp or cancer, radiology doctors read MRI scans to describe how deeply the cancer invades into the bowel wall (this is the 'stage' of the cancer). In this project, we will teach radiologists to find more early-stage rectal cancers. These are …
A Clinical Study Based on FAPI-PET/CT Technology to Predict Pathological Complete Response After Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy for MSS Rectal Cancer
The combination of short course radiotherapy and immunotherapy helps to increase the proportion of pathological complete response after neoadjuvant therapy, providing more patients with the opportunity for organ preservation. However, there is no accurate and unified cCR diagnostic standard in the world. As a new radiotracer, 68Ga-FAPI has been developed …
Personalized Care Pathways for Bowel Symptoms in Rectal Cancer Patients_contributing Factors (Treatable)
Colorectal cancer is the 2nd and 3rd most common cancer in respectively women and men, of which about 40% is located in the rectum. The gold standard treatment for rectal cancer (RC) is a low anterior resection, combined with chemoradiotherapy. However, this treatment will negatively impact different aspects of bowel …
Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy, Excision And Observation vs Chemoradiotherapy For Rectal Cancer
This study is being done to answer the following questions: Is the chance of rectal cancer responding the same if chemotherapy alone is given before limited surgery compared to chemotherapy and radiation therapy given together before limited surgery? If radiation therapy is not given, is quality of life better?
Ketogenic Diet Compliance in Patients Undergoing Radiotherapy for Pelvic Cancers
Patients with locally advanced non-metastatic adenocarcinoma of the rectum undergoing chemoradiation therapy will be assigned to 2 groups: the intervention group will be prescribed an individualized ketogenic eating plan to be followed throughout the treatment period the control group will be prescribed a diet therapy plan treatment following the international …
Encorafenib Plus Cetuximab in a Neoadjuvant Setting in Patients With BRAF Mutation Localised Colon or Upper Rectum Cancer
This is a pilot trial which aims to assess the concept of anti-BRAF neoadjuvant treatment (encorafenib) in combination with cetuximab in patients with colon cancer or rT3/T4 supra-peritoneal upper rectal cancer based on a pre-operative CT-scan. About 10% of patients will have a mutated BRAF V600E tumour and the objective …
Extended Resection for Rectal Cancer With Neoadjuvant Radiotherapy
Preoperative neoadjuvant therapy has become the guideline-recommended standard treatment for patients with locally advanced or mid-to-low rectal cancer with suspected regional lymph node metastasis. However, preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy caused radiation damage to the pelvic bowel, resulting in varying degrees of edema, vascular stiffness, and insufficient blood supply. According to the …
Exercise for Improving Radiotherapy Efficacy in Rectal Cancer
This is a single arm feasibility study of exercise for improving short- course neoadjuvant radiotherapy efficacy in people diagnosed with locally advanced rectal cancer. The study aims to recruit up to 30 patients from the Queen's Centre for Oncology and Haematology of Castle Hill Hospital, Cottingham, diagnosed with locally advanced …
The Effects of Neoadjuvant Tislelizumab Combined With Chemotherapy in Locally Advanced MSS Rectal Cancer
This study aims to elucidate the effects of neoadjuvant Tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy in locally advanced MSS rectal cancer.
