Porto-sinusoidal Vascular Disease (PSVD) is characterized by a portal hypertension (PH) without cirrhosis. This can induce PH complications, like digestive hemorrhage from esophageal or gastric varices, ascites, or even portal thrombosis. Due to the rarity of MVPS, the treatment of complications of portal hypertension is modeled on the methods used …
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is commonly performed for (pre)cancerous lesions in the esophagus. Following ESD, post-procedural chest pain is seen in many patients. Studies have shown that local bupivacaine (BP) into the residual submucosal layer of the resection wound after gastric ESD could reduce post-procedural pain rates effectively. Levobupivacaine (LB) …
Although definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard treatment option for unresectable locally advanced esophageal cancer, elderly patients tolerate intravenous concurrent CRT less well with age and comorbidities. Previous trials have demonstrated that CRT with oral S-1 was tolerable and provided significant survival benefits over radiotherapy alone in elderly patients with …
This study examines whether adding the drug Zolbetuximab to an existing treatment (Paclitaxel and Ramucirumab) can improve patients' survival. The goal is to see if this combination works better for patients whose tumours contain a specific protein (CLDN18.2). The results will be compared to past patient data from those who …
This study is a multicenter, prospective, randomized phase II trial aimed at exploring the value of adjuvant radiotherapy in patients at high risk of recurrence after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer. The study primarily includes patients with esophageal cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and surgery and did not achieve complete …
The goal of this interventional study is to compare the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus chemotherapy and anlotinib versus immunotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main question it aims to answer is: To evaluate the safety and efficacy …
The purpose of this study is to analyze esophageal cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant immunotherapy with chemotherapy followed by esophagectomy to determine whether additional adjuvant therapy is associated with improved survival outcomes.
The combination of surufatinib with neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy and definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy represents a promising new therapeutic strategy that may further improve the prognosis of patients with unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Therefore, we propose to conduct a prospective, single-arm, phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy …
Esophageal cancer is a prevalent digestive tract tumor, with around 400,000 new cases and 300,000 deaths globally each year. In the past few decades, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other treatments were continuously improved, however, the mortality of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients was not significantly decreased. For patients with …
This single center, prospective, single arm clinical study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Envafolimab combined with albumin bound paclitaxel and carboplatin as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
