Esophageal cancer is a highly lethal disease, and its incidence is still increasing in the world. Recent advances in image-enhanced techniques such as Lugol chromoendoscopy and narrow band imaging, the number of patients with early esophageal squamous cell neoplasias (ESCNs) detected has markedly increased. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) enables en …
This study is a single-arm, prospective, phase II trial for patients with metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who received immunotherapy plus chemotherapy as the first-line treatment. The aim of the study is to determine if intervening with combined local therapy and immunotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with ESCC led …
This retrospective study aims at evaluating the outcomes of gastrointestinal stromal tumor after surgery.
The overall objectives of this BETRNet Research Center (RC) are: to conduct a rigorous, integrated spectrum of transdisciplinary human research in Barrett's esophagus (BE) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (ECA) to increase the biological understanding of key observations made by our clinical researchers; to translate knowledge derived from genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptome …
Gastric cancer is the fifth cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Gastric carcinogenesis involves the progression from premalignant conditions such as atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia to premalignant lesions like dysplasia, and ultimately carcinoma. Most diagnoses of gastric cancer are made at advanced stages, with a five-year relative survival rate of …
This study plans to learn more about what patients think about screening for esophageal cancer (EAC) and Barrett's esophagus (BE); a pre-cancerous condition associated with esophageal cancer. The plan is to use this information to modify screening practices in the United States with the goal to decrease the number of …
This study will evaluate if the sponge capsule device can accurately detect the presence of Barrett's Esophagus and prevalent dysplasia/adenocarcinoma detection, in a screening population, with and without chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Aim of this prospective multicenter study is to evaluate the safety of an endoscopic follow-up strategy in patients treated with endoscopic resection (ER) for submucosal or high-risk mucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma (T1bN0M0 or HR T1aN0M0 EAC).
This study is looking at cells collected from the esophagus using a diagnostic device called the EndoSign® Cell Collection Device (a sponge on a thread). Subjects swallow a capsule, which dissolves in the stomach and releases a sponge that collects cells from the esophagus as the sponge is withdrawn using …
This registry is to evaluate the procedural and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection. All patients will receive standard of medical care and no experimental interventions will be performed.
