Chemoradiotherapy has been a standard modality for inoperable locally advance esophageal carcinoma. The goal of this randomized control study is to compare the feasibility, and survival benefits of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs for local advanced patients with inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer …
The goal of this trial is to test the efficacy and safety of cardenilimab combined with chemotherapy in the conversion therapy of locally advanced unresectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. type of study: clinical trial
This phase II trial tests how well preoperative (prior to surgery) radiation therapy with fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin calcium (FOLFOX) works for the treatment of stage I-III esophageal or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill …
This is Phase 1 dose finding trial with potential dose expansion to evaluate the safety, toxicity, recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Neratinib plus TDxD using a standard 3+3 dose escalation design in patients with metastatic or unresectable gastro-esophageal cancer that are HER2-overexpressing (IHC 3+ …
Prevention of postoperative pain is essential for the recovery of esophageal surgery. Epidural analgesia is a traditional and standard perioperative pain management for these patients. Beneficials of epidural analgesia have been widely established. However, there are still several potential disadvantages such as perioperative hypotension, failure of administration, rare but serious …
Peroral endoscopic esophagel myotomy (POEM) is a third space endoscopy technique that depends on creating a submucosal tunnel to expose the esophageal muscle and eventually perform an esophageal myotomy. Submucosal dissection can be performed using numerous electrosurgical modes. Spray coagulation has been anecdotally favored by many endoscopists due to its …
Calibration of the esophageal balloon catheter (Pes catheter) is important for the right measurement of the esophageal pressure (Pes) and subsequent interpretation of the derived transpulmonary pressures during mechanical ventilation. Both relative changes and absolute values of Pes can be affected by inappropriate filling of the esophageal balloon and by …
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the progression of esophagogastric varices in patients treated with atezolizumab-bevacizumab. Assess the efficacy of primary prophylaxis of small esophageal varices with no risky signs and shortening endoscopic follow-up time intervals to reduce the risk of variceal hemorrhage. Researchers will assess …
Pembrolizumab is a potent humanized immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) monoclonal antibody (mAb) with high specificity of binding to the programmed cell death 1 (PD 1) receptor, thus inhibiting its interaction with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death ligand 2 (PD-L2). Olaparib is a potent PARP inhibitor (PARP1, …
Patients with IgE mediated food Allergy have elevated risk of eosinophilic esophagitis, and new therapies like oral immunotherapy (OIT) carry additional risk of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE). The goal of this study is to investigate the Esophageal String Test (EST) as a screening tool for Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) during OIT therapy. …
