Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms"

The primary objective of the study aims to compare soluble CD154 (CD40L) levels before and after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases. The secondary objectives aims: to compare soluble CD154 (sCD40-L) levels before and after treatment by RFA or surgery alone in patients with CRC liver metastases; to study the feasibility and reliability of soluble CD154 (sCD40-L) levels to detect and quantify the induction of immun response in CRC liver metastases patients after RFA; to study the impact of surgery on plasma soluble CD154 levels; to study association between CD154 expression level before and after RFA in CRC liver metastases patients and relapses rate at 1 year.

This is a prospective, open label, single arm study. A total of 300 patients with primary non-small cell lung cancer treated with PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs) are expected to included . All patients will follow up for at least 1 year. Patients with cardiac adverse reactions after PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment at admission or during the subsequently follow-up period will randomly assigned a random number to each patient by computer random sequence. Patients with odd random number will treat with RASI（renin-angiotensin system inhibitors）, and those with even random number will treat with ARNI（angiotensin-receptor-neprilysin inhibitor）.

The study's aim is to determinate the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome after treatment by combined chemoradiotherapy in a locally advanced stages treated population of oropharyngeal cancer. Indeed, the level of knowledge about the consequences of oropharyngeal cancer treatment on sleep quality remains poor but the few studies published on the subject suggest an increased risk of development of OSAHS for these patients.

Accurate evaluation of activity status is an important part of the assessment of people with cancer. Clinician assessments currently used are valuable but have limitations; in particular, assessment only occurs when the patient attends clinic and is often subjective. Activity trackers, such as FitBits, give the opportunity to objectively assess activity status continuously, independent of clinic visits. Previous studies have shown that a reduction in 1000 steps while receiving cancer treatment is associated with an increased risk of hospitalisation but it is not known if using information from activity trackers to allow early intervention is feasible or if it can reduce admission to hospital and improve outcomes. The investigators propose a prospective feasibility study in people with advanced lung cancer or upper gastrointestinal cancers who are starting a new line of systemic anti-cancer therapy. Participants will receive a FitBit, which is a commercially available wearable activity tracker for the duration of their treatment or 4 months (whichever is shorter). Step counts will be monitored and a reduction in daily steps of >1000 from baseline will trigger contact by the study team and an ambulatory review. Participants will not receive treatment within the context of the study.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the combined radiomic model based on radiomic features extracted from focus and perifocal area (5mm) can effectively improve prediction performance of distinguishing precancerous lesions from early-stage lung adenocarcinoma, which could assist clinical decision making for surgery indication. Besides, response and long term clinical benefit of immunotherapy of advanced NSCLC lung cancer patients could also be predicted by this strategy.

Patients who met the criteria for removal of 10-19mm colorectal polyps using cold snare or hot snare were included in the study, signed by endoscopic treatment written informed consent for surgery, patients with detailed tracking and record the basic information and information related to the operation, postoperative lack of region and edge endoscopic observation carefully no residue, additional excision may be took if necessary，after resection specimen inspection, and in 6 months review colonoscopy, assess whether there is residual or recurrence of polyps.Main outcome: technical success rate (no other auxiliary resection), complete resection rate, secondary outcome: intraoperative and postoperative complications, polypectomy time and related costs, influential factors of incomplete resection.Research significance: The effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of cold and hot snare resection of 10-19mm colorectal polyps were compared, and the influencing factors of incomplete polyps resection were analyzed, so as to provide evidence for the decision on the best method of medium-size polyps resection.

The purpose of this study was to assess the performance of automatic quality-control system (AQCS) in real-time quality control of colonoscopy.

This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Extimia® (INN - empegfilgrastim) in reducing the frequency, duration of neutropenia, the incidence of febrile neutropenia and infections caused by febrile neutropenia in patients with High and "Gray Zone" Risk Reccurrence Breast Cancer, Gastointestinal Cancers and Gynecological Malignancies

Although anamnesis and physical examination remain the place in the evaluation of patients today; laboratory values, imaging methods and pathology results have come to the fore in the decision-making of surgery for patients. As a result of all other criteria, a follow-up decision can be changed in a patient with a single fine needle aspiration biopsy result, or despite all the examinations the investigators have, a clear result cannot be achieved, and patient management may be disrupted. A holistic approach to thyroid gland pathologies is planned thanks to the scoring system that will be created in this study.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the difference in the success rate of culturing primary cells derived from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma specimens of patients which obtained by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy wet suction technique and surgery, analyze whether the sensitive chemotherapeutic agents screened by the primary cells cultured from the specimens obtained by the above two methods are consistent, and whether they are consistent with the clinical treatment effect of patients, verify the accuracy of laboratory drug sensitivity results, so as to provide the basis for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients to choose the source of individual treatment samples.
