Preoperative Chemoradiotherapy With CApecitabine and Temozolomide in MGMT Silenced, MSS, Locally Advanced RecTal Cancer
In patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), preoperative chemo-radiotherapy (CTRT) is considered the standard of care. Preoperative CTRT approach often results in a significant tumor downstaging and local control, with evidence of complete pathological response (pCR) rate of about 15% in high volume institutions. In high-risk LARC a new …
Timing to Minimally Invasive Surgery After Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy for Rectal Cancer
The trial is a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled, unblinded, parallel-group trial comparing standard and delayed surgery after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for the curative treatment of rectal cancer. Three-hundred and thirty-two patients will be randomized on an equal basis to either robotic-assisted/standard laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery after 8 weeks or robotic-assisted/standard laparoscopic …
Radical vs Local Excision for Rectal Cancer With Clinically Complete Remission
In the present project, the investigators plan to more accurately select the rectal cancer patients with pathological complete response (pCR) to preoperative concomitant chemoradiation therapy (CCRT), taking advantage of quantification of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in addition to the current available diagnostic modalities, including CT, MRI, PET and colonoscopy. The …
A Phase I-II Study to Test the Safety and Efficacy of PD1 (AB122) and Adenosine Receptor (AB928) Antagonists With Chemotherapy After Short-Course Radiation for Rectal Cancer.
Enrolled patients will receive upfront (week 1) short-course radiotherapy to gross pelvic disease (25Gy in 5fx) in combination with AB928 (150 mg orally, once daily as part of a continuous dose regimen). This will be followed by consolidation chemotherapy (weeks 3-20) with mFOLFOX x9 cycles in combination with AB928 and …
Organ Preservation First Strategy and Intentional Watch and Wait for MRI Defined Low-risk Rectal Cancer
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety and efficacy of local excision (LE) or non-operative management (NOM) in patients with MRI defined low-risk rectal cancer following neoadjuvant intensity modulated radiotherapy with concurrent capecitabine plus consolidation CapeOX. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is …
Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy Plus Sintilimab for Intermediate/High Immunoscore Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Immunoscore has been reported to be superior to microsatellite instability staging in predicting the disease-specific recurrence and survival for patients with colorectal cancer. However, the relationship between Immunoscore and its impact on patient's response to PD-1 blockade remains to be elucidated. This phase II, prospective, open label study is designed …
Intrafractional Vaginal Dilation in Anal Cancer Patients Undergoing Pelvic Radiotherapy
A commercially available vaginal dilator set will be used as measuring device. The grading of vaginal stenosis will be determined as difference of the diameter of vaginal dilator to the baseline. A reduction of the diameter of <20% is defined as vaginal stenosis Grade 1, a reduction of 20-35% as …
Brain and Pelvic Floor Muscle Activity of Patients Who Had or Are Undergoing Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy
This trial investigates brain and pelvic floor muscle activity in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. This trial may help identify the brain waves that are associated with muscles involved in giving patients control over the bladder.
Proximally Extended Resection for Rectal Cancer After Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy has been recommended as the standard preoperative treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer. However, preoperative radiotherapy increases the risk of bowel dysfunction after sphincter-preserving surgery, for which patients suffer from incontinence, urgency, and unpredictability defecation problems. Furthermore, preoperative chemoradiotherapy is a potential risk factor of anastomotic leakage and …
Preoperative Sequential Short-course Radiation Therapy and FOLFOX for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
The treatment protocol proposed in this study is to perform short-term radiation therapy and 4 cycles of FOLFOX chemotherapy for neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer. Compared to conventional chemoradiation therapy, the preoperative radiotherapy period is shortened, and the cure rate of rectal cancer patients can be improved by …
