Ultrasound and Photoacoustic Imaging for Enhanced Differential Diagnosis of Rectal Cancer
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the functionality of a novel endorectal photoacoustic ultrasound imaging modality in humans with rectal cancer. The study involves testing a previously developed endorectal device to determine its ability to accurately assess rectal tumor response to preoperative treatment. Investigators hypothesize that a co-registered …
ctDNA-guided Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Liver Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in resectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis patients.The main question it aims to answer is whether the 3-year progression-free survival rate (PFS) of "watching and waiting" is non-inferior to adjuvant chemotherapy in postoperative ctDNA-negative resectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis patients.Participants will undergo …
OPTIMIzation of Treatment SElection and Follow up in Oligometastatic Colorectal Cancer
A study investigating if analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can guide adjuvant treatment in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC)
Pulmonary Suffusion in Controlling Minimal Residual Disease in Patients With Sarcoma or Colorectal Metastases
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of pulmonary suffusion in controlling minimal residual disease in patients with sarcoma or colorectal carcinoma that has spread to the lungs. Pulmonary suffusion is a minimally invasive delivery of chemotherapeutic agents like cisplatin to lung tissues. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as …
Postoperation Maintenance Therapy for Resectable Liver Metastases of Colorectal Cancer Guided by ctDNA
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in resectable liver metastases colorectal cancer patients.The main question it aims to answer is to investigate whether the progression-free survival (PFS) of resectable colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) patients with positive ctDNA after surgery is superior with the combination of adjuvant chemotherapy …
Comparing Polypropylene Mesh and "Small Bites" Technique in Emergency Colorectal Surgery's Midline Laparotomy Closure. Study for Incisional Hernia Prevention.
The 2023 World Journal of Emergency Surgery guidelines couldn't provide a recommendation for emergency abdominal wall closure due to insufficient consensus (>80% required). Available evidence, predominantly retrospective and heterogeneous, lacks differentiation between urgent and elective colorectal surgeries. Therefore, we advocate for a study comparing laparotomy closures in emergency colorectal surgery …
The Impact of PReOPerative Exercise and NutritionaL Optimization on Perioperative Outcomes for Patients Undergoing Treatment for Rectal Cancer: The PROPEL Trial
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of a prehabilitation program for participants diagnosed with rectal cancer undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiation, followed by surgical resection. The names of the groups in this research study are: Group A: Prehabilitation program Group B: Usual Care
Impact of Defecation Posture on Ease of Bowel Movements in Patients With a Rectocele
The study aims to determine if defecation posture, when using a defecation posture modification device (DPMD), will improve ease of bowel movements in patients with pelvic organ prolapse, specifically rectoceles.
Postoperative Chemotherapy With/Without Radiotherapy and Immunotherapy for Colorectal Liver Metastases With High Risk of Locally Recurrence
This study is a randomized controlled phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and immunotherapy with postoperative chemotherapy in colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) patients with high risk of locally recurrence. Researchers will compare the combination therapy with the postoperative chemotherapy …
Evaluation of Gixam's Performance in a FIT Negative Population
In the United States, colorectal cancer ranks second to lung cancer as a cause of cancer death and is the third most commonly occurring cancer in both men and women. Colorectal cancer in most cases develops slowly over a period of years, starting with the growth of precancerous polyps on …
