Phase III Study of Concurrent Radiotherapy in Elderly Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESO-Shanghai 15)
So far, there is no specific clinical guideline for elderly patients (\>75 yr) with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Patients with locally advanced ESCC were enrolled and randomly assigned to either definitive radiotherapy group (61.2Gy/34Fx） or the chemoradiotherapy group (50.4Gy/28Fx；Paclitaxel plus carboplatin). The primary end point was 3-year overall survival …
TDLN-sparing RT Plus Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy in Locally Advanced ESCC
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if immunotherapy in combination with tumor draining lymph nodes-sparing radiotherapy (TDLN-sparing RT) and chemotherapy works to treat locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer in adults. Researchers will compare immunotherapy in combination with TDLN-sparing RT and chemotherapy to TDLN-sparing RT and chemotherapy …
CCRT Followed by PD-1 Inhibitor Maintenance Therapy in Locally Advanced ESCC
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by immunotherapy as maintenance therapy works to treat locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer in adults.
PET/CT Imaging to Evaluate Cardiac Radiation Damage in Patients With Lung or Esophageal Cancer, EUCLID Trial
This clinical trial examines positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in evaluating cardiac radiation damage in patients with lung or esophageal cancer. As part of the treatment for lung or esophageal cancer, patients will undergo radiation therapy. Sometimes, during this treatment, the heart is also subjected to some radiation which …
The Australia and New Zealand Multicentre Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Tissue Resection Study
To determine the long term outcomes of Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD), Endoscopic Full Thickness Resection (EFTR) and Submucosal-Tunnelling Endoscopic Resection (STER) for upper gastrointestinal neoplastic lesions
Penpulimab Plus Chemotherapy With/Without Anlotinib for Patients With Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Penpulimab plus chemotherapy with or without Anlotinib as first-line therapy for patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (Answer): A randomized two-arm clinical study.
Radiotherapy in Patients With Metastatic Esophageal Cancer Responding to PD-1 Inhibitor Plus Chemotherapy
The treatment efficacy for stage IVb esophageal cancer has been improved through chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy recently. On this basis, the investigators intend to conduct a prospective, multicenter phase II clinical trial to assess whether radiotherapy could further improve the survival of patients with metastatic esophageal cancer responding to PD-1 …
Cognitive-behavioral Therapy for the Diseases Associated With Esophageal-brain-gut Axis Communication Abnormalities.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a challenging gastrointestinal disorder, and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are typically the first line of treatment. However, up to 40% of GERD patients experience little to no relief or only partial relief of their symptoms after receiving PPI therapy. Among these patients, who do not …
Interferon Gamma Plus Camrelizumab as Neoadjuvant Therapy for Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of interferon-gamma combined with camrelizumab plus chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Based on previous mechanistic research and preliminary clinical data, this trial intends to generate high-level evidence for this therapeutic strategy, which may improve the …
Wearable Biofeedback for Swallowing Disorders Rehabilitation in Stroke and Parkinson Disease
Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, is a common symptom of many neurological diseases but its treatment is not well established or easily accessible. To start addressing this gap, the researchers developed and validated a cost-effective wearable surface electromyography (sEMG) biofeedback sensor technology (i-Phagia), optimized to record muscle activity from the head/neck …
