The purpose of this research study is to learn about the best approach to sample patients with known or suspected Barrett's esophagus (BE) by comparing the standard Seattle biopsy protocol to sampling using wide area transepithelial sampling (WATS3D). Barrett's esophagus is a common condition that is used to spot patients …
The purpose of this study is to create a registry (collect data and keep it in a research database) to learn more about two methods of taking small tissue samples from your esophagus (the esophagus is the tube that carries food and liquid from your mouth to your stomach). The …
The investigators propose to compare recurrence-free survival in patients having potentially curative (Stages 1-3) surgery for esophageal cancer who will be randomly assigned to propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia or sevoflurane-based balanced general anesthesia.
Motive In order to improve the treatment technique, a comprehensive follow-up program is needed to obtain all relevant patient, treatment and toxicity data from esophageal cancer patients. Goal To set-up and maintain a database containing treatment results in terms of tumor control, side effects, complications and patient-reported quality of life. …
Residual tumor at the proximal or distal margin after esophagectomy is a known prognostic factor for poor survival outcomes in patients with esophageal cancer; however, the significance of the circumferential resection margin (CRM) remains controversial. In this study, the investigators sought to evaluate the prognostic significance of the CRM in …
the study was to document the incidence of left tracheobronchial lymph node metastasis, and the risk factors of metastasis.
the study was to document the incidence o subcarinal lymph node metastasis, and the risk factors of metastasis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if precision palliative care improves survival of patients with advanced esophageal cancer in adults. Researchers will compare precision palliative care and standard palliative care to see if precision palliative care works more effectively to treat advanced esophageal s cancer. Participants will …
Alcohol consumption, smoking, and betel nut chewing have been proven to be closely associated with the risk of esophageal cancer (EC). Recent studies have shown that alcohol-related detoxification genes in the ALDH family influence individual susceptibility to esophageal cancer. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is one of the most important enzymes …
The primary aim of the PERSuaDER-trial is to evaluate the effect of SDD on infectious complications after esophagectomy, focussed on the prevention of pneumonia
