Evaluating the Effect of Itraconazole on Pathologic Complete Response Rates in Esophageal Cancer
Esophageal cancer, which has a low 5-year overall survival rate for all stages (\<20%) , is increasing in incidence. Previous studies have shown that the Hedgehog (Hh) and AKT signaling pathways are activated in a significant proportion of esophageal cancers. Itraconazole, a widely used anti-fungal medication, has been shown to …
Serial MRI Scans During Radiation Therapy
This is a phase 1 study to determine the feasibility and utility of using serial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess treatment response during and after radiation therapy (standard of care cancer treatment) for participants with advanced esophageal cancer, glioblastoma, prostate cancer, vulvar cancer or pediatric glioma. The research study …
Novel Strategy for Early Detection of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
In the current protocol, we propose a study to evaluate a novel, combined esophageal sponge-methylation biomarker strategy for the early detection of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) as well as its precursor, esophageal squamous dysplasia (ESD). This strategy leverages the 'EsophaCap', a swallowable, retrievable sponge, with subsequent evaluation of the …
MRI and CT Simulation in the Evaluation of Tumor Response and Target Volume Definition for Esophageal or Esophagogastric Cancer Patients Undergoing Chemoradiotherapy
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with functional features of diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) are advancing imaging technologies that have potential to overcome limitations of conventional staging methods, radiation treatment planning and the assessment of tumor response in esophageal or esophagogastric cancer. This study aimed to explore the value of MRI for …
Anti-PD-1 and CapOx for the First-line Treatment of dMMR Esophagogastric Cancer (AuspiCiOus)
To investigate the effects of the combination of two chemotherapies followed by immunostimulants on the interferon gamma expression and infiltration of cytotoxic T cells in the tumour microenvironment in patients with previously untreated metastatic or locally advanced esophagogastric cancer.
TGF-β And PDL-1 Inhibition in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Combined With Chemoradiation TheRapY
The primary objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of treatment with bintrafusp alfa combined with definitive chemoradiation (carboplatin, paclitaxel and radiation) in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction.
Metformin as a Metabolic Intervention in Oesophageal Adenocarcinomas to Improve Response to Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy
The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether two weeks of metformin treatment can activate the tumour microenvironment in patients with stage II and III oesophageal adenocarcinomas.
AK112 Combined With Chemotherapy as the First-line Treatment in Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients
This is a single arm，phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of Ivonescimab(AK112) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In this study, patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who had not received any systematic treatment in the past will be enrolled. …
Trilaciclib for the Prevention of Chemoradiotherapy-Induced Myelosuppression in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Clinical data of patients with synchronous radiotherapy for esophageal cancer in the Department of Radiology of Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital were collected. Patients were divided into trilaciclib group (34 cases) and control group (169 cases) based on whether trilaciclib was used or not. Patients in the trilaciclib group were given …
Oxaliplatin and Liposomal Irinotecan (Plus Trastuzumab for HER2-positive Disease) in Advanced Esophageal and Gastric Adenocarcinoma
This is an open label, phase II, multi-site trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the combination of 5-FU, oxaliplatin, nal-IRI, and immunotherapy (plus trastuzumab for HER2-positive tumors) as first-line therapy for participants with advanced Esophageal and Gastric Adenocarcinoma (EGA). The investigators hypothesize that this drug combination will be better …
