The prospective clinical trial will study muscle fibrosis in relation to lower esophageal sphincter (LES) measurements on Functional Lumen Imaging Probe (FLIP) Topography (the novel technology that utilizes impedance planimetry) after pharmacologic challenge. A better understanding of achalasia will allow intervention at an earlier stage.
This phase II study is a clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of SI-B003 Monotherapy, BL-B01D1+SI-B003 Combination Therapy and BL-B01D1+PD-1 Monoclonal Antibody in patients with locally advanced or metastatic esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer and other gastrointestinal tumors.
The PROTECT trial will test the hypothesis that proton (PT) -enabled radiation dose reductions to sensitive, normal tissues will result in lower rates of treatment-related pulmonary complications in esophageal cancer compared to standard photon therapy (XT).
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether TJ101, an investigational antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), can safely and effectively treat patients with advanced solid tumors. The main objectives of this study are : To Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of TJ101 to …
The effect of neo-adjuvant immunochemotherapy on survival of patients with thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinomas remains unknown. One of our objectives is to evaluate whether the neo-adjuvant immunochemotherapy Toripalimab (JS001) with cisplatin and paclitaxel followed by right thoracic approach esophagectomy with total 2-field lymph node dissection improves the overall survival …
The goal of this phase I trial is to evaluate the toxicity and feasibility of a tumor-specific RNA-NP vaccine in patients with stage IIB-IV melanoma who have evidence of progressive disease by RECIST 1.1 criteria while receiving adjuvant aPD1 therapy, or those who progress within 6 months of completion of …
BACKGROUND: For patients with esophageal cancer, radical esophagectomy with 2-field lymphadenectomy is the cornerstone of the multimodality treatment with curative intent. Both, conventional minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) and robot assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE) were shown to be superior compared to open transthoracic esophagectomy considering postoperative complications. However, no randomized …
This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of propranolol when administered concurrently with SOC neoadjuvant CRT in patients with esophageal carcinoma, with a safety lead-in and dose expansion cohort. Patients who are already on β-blockers will receive standard of care CRT, or definitive chemotherapy or chemotherapy-immunotherapy …
Rationale: Esophageal cancer (EC) is the seventh most frequently diagnosed cancer and the sixth leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. As a result of the late onset of symptoms, most patients with EC present in an advanced stage with a corresponding poor prognosis. Poor disease outcome after surgery alone (5-yr …
Esophagectomy has high rates of morbidity and mortality, in many cases due to esophagus reconstruction. Anastomotic leakage and fistula are the main esophagectomy complications. Many studies underwent to investigate the cause for anastomotic leakage after esophagectomy, however none of them conclude it is related to surgery or suture technique. However, …
