Barrett's Esophagus Related Neoplasia (BERN) Project
The use of high resolution endoscopy (HRE), narrow band imaging (NBI) and chromoendoscopy increases the detection rates of Barrett's esophagus (BE) and early neoplasia. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) will improve the accuracy for detection of dysplasia/early neoplasia. Specific Aim 1 - To create a video-atlas of non-dysplastic and dysplastic/early neoplastic …
Endoscopic Vacuum Therapy for Transmural Defects in the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the best indications and techniques regarding endoscopic vacuum therapy (EVT) in patients with a transmural defect in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract (e.g. anastomotic leakage, Boerhaave syndrome, iatrogenic perforation, other). The main questions it aims to answer are: What is …
Predicting Early Tumor Recurrence in Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The prognosis of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who develop post-operative early tumor recurrence is often relatively poor. Therefore, biomarker that can detect micro metastases before the start of treatment is required. Epigenomic alterations such as DNA methylation have attracted attention as promising biomarkers. The investigators aim to …
G-POEM for Refractory Gastroparesis After Esophagectomy With Gastric Pull-through
This is a retrospective study assessing the effectiveness of endoscopic pyloromyotomy in patients suffering from gastroparesis and/or symptoms of delayed gastric emptying after esophagectomy with gastric pull-through. Several, mainly European, centres which perform G-POEM on a routine basis will be asked to participate. The main reason to assess the effectiveness …
Endoluminal Vacuum Therapy to Prevent Anastomotic Leakage After Esophagectomy Due to Esophageal Cancer
A prospective, multi-centre, exploratory and observational one-arm study to evaluate preventive Endoluminal Vacuum Therapy(pEVT) to prevent anastomotic leakage after esophagectomy due to esophageal cancer. The main objective is to evaluate the potential protective effect of prophylactic preemptive endoluminal vacuum therapy on esophageal-gastric anastomosis dehiscence after esophagectomy.
Prospective Observational Trial to Evaluate Quality of Life After Neoadjuvant or Definitive Chemoradiation in Patients With Esophageal Cancer
Prospective observational study to evaluate the Quality of life based on standardized EORTC questionaires as well as toxicities, functional and oncological outcomes in patients treated with neoadjuvant or definitive chemoradiation for esophageal Cancer.
The Level of Patient Participation in Lung and Esophageal Cancer Patients Treated With Definitive Radiochemotherapy.
This study aims to assess the level of participation of thoracic cancer patients undergoing definitive radiotherapy and chemotherapy ± immunotherapy in their medical processes and the association between the level of participation and patients' side effects, quality of life, and long-term survival. Additionally, this study will rate the level of …
Investigating the Biomarkers in Tumor and Peripheral Blood to Evaluate the Efficacy of Cancer Immunotherapy in Chest Cancer Patients
This study aims to investigate the impact of immunotherapy on the immune status of tumor microenvironment and peripheral blood of chest cancer patients. To do so, the investigators plan to collect tumor tissue and peripheral blood samples before and after immunotherapy, and use single-cell RNA sequencing, Multiplex immunohistochemistry, and flow …
Rehabilitation and Recovery for Persons With Esophageal or Gastric Cancer
This study aims to develop and evaluate a model for systematic and evidence-based cancer rehabilitation for people with esophageal and gastric cancer to provide conditions for a better quality of life and fewer cancer-related symptoms.
Serologic Response to Pneumococcal Vaccination Among Esophageal Cancer Patients With High Grade Lymphopenia After Chemoradiation
To learn how radiation treatment may affect your responses to vaccines against pneumonia.
