An Observational Study on the Safety and Efficacy of Immunotherapy Combined With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Elderly Patients With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Title: Observational Study on the Safety and Efficacy of Immunotherapy Combined with Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Elderly Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Study Purpose: This single-center, open-label, retrospective study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of immunotherapy combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell …
Tumor Regression Grade As Predictor of Adjuvant Therapy
Neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery is preferred for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, but the necessity of adjuvant therapy remains controversial. Tumor regression grade reflects the response to neoadjuvant therapy and may predict patient prognosis, yet its role in guiding adjuvant therapy remains unexplored.
Individualized Tumor-Informed CtDNA Analysis for Monitoring Postoperative Recurrence in ESCC (NEOCRTEC2401)
The goal of this observational study or is to explore the correlation between dynamic changes in postoperative circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and recurrence risk using a novel, tumor-informed ctDNA detection technique, thus laying the foundation for further promoting ctDNA detection to guide postoperative adjuvant therapy decisions. This study focuses on …
Study of the Link Between Freezing of Gait and Oropharyngeal Freezing in Parkinson's Patients
Parkinson's Disease: Study of the Link Between Gait Freezing and Oropharyngeal Freezing Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Parkinsonian dysphagia is a frequently encountered disorder in this condition, affecting all phases of swallowing: oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal. This dysphagia can occur at any stage of the …
Lymph Node Metastasis in Early Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This study aims to develop a predictive model using deep learning and radiomics to assess the likelihood of lymph node metastasis in patients with early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Lymph node metastasis is a critical factor in determining the treatment approach and prognosis for ESCC patients. By analyzing medical …
Changes in Sensitivity, Taste and Smell in Stroke Patients
This study evaluates changes in swallowing using endoscopic swallowing studies and measuring of pharyngeal sensitivity, taste and smell in stroke patients. Younger (<60 years) and older (>60 years) volunteers will serve as control.
Deep Learning Model Predicts Pathological Complete Response of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Following Neoadjuvant Immunochemotherapy
This study aims to develop and validate a deep learning model to predict pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who have undergone neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy. Clinical, imaging, and pathological data from previously treated patients will be collected and analyzed. The model is expected to assist in …
Mandatory Hiatoplasty in Sleeve Gastrectomy for Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease
The goal of this observational study is to learn about incidence of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux disease in mandatory hiatoplasty performed during gastric sleeve surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Incidence of postoperative GERD in patients undergoing gastric sleeve with mandatory hiatoplasty Comparison of postoperative complication rates, including …
Cognitive Impact Associated With Surgery For Gastric Or Esophageal Cancer
The primary objective of this observational study is to investigate the incidence of Post Operative Delirium (POD) after gastroesophageal cancer surgery. Secondary objectives are to investigate the relationship between POD, preoperative depression, frailty, quality of life, malnutrition and sarcopenia. Participants identified with POD will be asked (at the routine follow-up …
Longitudinal Assessment of Biomarkers After Oesophagogastric Cancer Surgery
Oesophagogastric cancer (cancer of the gullet and stomach) is the fifth most common cancer in England and Wales with 16,000 new cases diagnosed every year. Survival rates are poor with only 15% surviving beyond 5 years. There is also increasing research to understand the cancer biology and factors allowing cancers …
