Omega-3 Fatty Acids With PD-1 Inhibitors in Advanced Esophageal Cancer
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate whether adding omega-3 fatty acids improves outcomes in adult patients with recurrent or metastatic esophageal cancer receiving PD-1 inhibitor therapy. The main questions are: Compared with placebo, does omega-3 (EPA+DHA) increase the longitudinal change in skeletal muscle …
Fruquintinib in Combination With Tislelizumab Followed by Radiotherapy in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
According to the Global Burden of Disease Study, the number of esophageal cancer cases globally increased from 319,969 in 1990 to 534,563 in 2019, a relative increase of 67.07 per cent. In addition, GLOBOCAN 2020 reported that the global incidence of esophageal cancer climbed to 604,100, accounting for 3.1% of …
Single Dose Investigator Initiated Pilot Study to Investigate CYTALUX (Pafolacianine) for Intraoperative Detection of Malignant Tissue in Subjects Undergoing Surgical Resection for Cancer.
The goal of clinical trial is to test an FDA approved drug called Pafolacianine that attaches to cancer cells and lights up when seen through a special camera system in adults with a suspected primary diagnosis, or a high clinical suspicion of gastrointestinal, fore gut, pancreatic, hepatobiliary, esophageal malignancies and …
Combination of COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway and HFNC Oxygenation in Sedated Gastrointestinal Endoscopy for Morbidly Obese Patients
Hypoxaemia during sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy exceeds 40 % in morbidly obese (BMI ≥ 35 kg m-²) patients. High-flow nasal cannula alone often fails because of persistent airway collapse. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block , oxygenation …
Focal Cryoballoon Ablation for Malignant Dysphagia
Rationale Dysphagia is commonly encountered in patients with esophageal carcinoma who are no candidates for treatment with curative intent. It often has a considerable impact on quality of life and can cause malnourishment. Current palliative treatments mainly include esophageal stenting and radiotherapy, but these can be associated with substantial drawbacks …
Esophagus-sparing Radiotherapy for Metastatic Spinal Cord Compression.
Metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) is a serious complication to metastatic cancer and when diagnosed life expectancy is short. Treatment is palliative radiotherapy (RT). Early esophageal toxicity is underreported but can seriously impact quality of life (QoL). The aim of the ESO-SPARE trial is to investigate if esophagus sparing RT …
Myosteatosis in Oeso-gastric Cancer: Clinical Impacts
The aim of this project is to study the presence of cancer-associated adipocytes in oesogastric cancers and their possible links with myosteatosis. This research project has a retrospective component, the aim of which is to analyse the body component based on imaging in patients with oesogastric neoplasia in order to …
Sintilimab After Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Elderly Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter, phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab as consolidation therapy in elderly patients with esophageal cancer who did not progress after concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Patients aged 70-85 years with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who did not progress after …
Using 18F-FAPI PET to Detect Metastatic Disease in Patients That Have Gastric or Esophageal Cancer.
This is a multi-site, open-label, non-randomized, single dose study to assess the clinical utility of \[¹⁸F\]FAPI-74 PET/CT in the detection of metastatic disease in individuals with pathologically confirmed gastric, gastroesophageal junction or esophageal cancer. Following screening, using a standardized administration protocol and dose, participants will undergo \[¹⁸F\]FAPI-74 PET/CT screening. SOC …
Comparison of Drainage Methods in Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy (DEMURE）
This RCT compares three drainage approaches after minimally invasive esophagectomy (chest tube + thoracic mediastinal drainage tube, thoracic, and abdominal mediastinal drainage tube) to evaluate perioperative outcomes, addressing current evidence gaps in pain and complication profiles.
