Active clinical trials for "Adenocarcinoma"

This study aims to develop a nomogram to predict postoperative recurrence of HAS and guide individually tailored surveillance strategies.

The differences in patient's clinicopathological characteristic between high and low prevalence of gastric cancer region should be further examined to elucidate factors that associate with poor survival rate of patients with gastric cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate characteristics of patients with gastric adenocarcinoma and factors associated with different outcome in Thailand and Japan to find a clue to improve patients' survival in low prevalence country such as Thailand. This is a retrospective cohort study. It was conducted at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Thailand and Osaka Medical Center for Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease, Japan. Eligible cases were selected by using standardized search protocols: formal computer searches of all patients seen at out-patient clinic and/or hospitalized for gastric cancer between 2010 and 2014.Two physicians, who were informed the definition of each variable, individually reviewed chart of patients.

The research purpose of this project is to create a registry, and blood and tissue bank for individuals at high-risk for pancreatic cancer. We plan to conduct histopathological and molecular analysis of resected pancreatic tissue prospectively collected from a cohort of pancreatic cancer patients.

This is a laboratory-based, exploratory study using tissue obtained from our clinical practice. The purpose of this study is to confirm our ability to characterize miR expression in various tissues (proximal and distal esophagus, stomach and duodenum) obtained from the upper gastrointestinal tract in preparation for the study of MiR in patients with Barrett's esophagus and other inflammatory conditions of the upper gastrointestinal tract.

Extracapsular lymph node involvement (ECLNI) has been identified as a pathological variable associated with worse outcome in esophageal, gastric and colorectal cancer. No studies so far have studied its prognostic impact in ductal pancreatic adenocarcinoma (DPAC). The goal of the investigators is to determine the prognostic value of ECLNI in a prospective consecutive series of 145 patients with DPAC, who underwent resection of their primary tumor between 1998 and 2005.

This is an observational study designed to follow patients with metastatic or locally advanced and unresectable colorectal cancer who are receiving Avastin in combination with chemotherapy and whose cancer has been either previously untreated or treated <=4 months prior to enrollment.

To compare the Idylla microsatellite instability test versus mismatch repair immunohistochemistry (IHC) in gastric adenocarcinoma.

An international, multicenter study to identify tumor molecular particularities and neoepitopes among participants with colorectal and pancreatic tumors undergoing surgery.

Patients with noncurative resection after ESD for CRC were considered for additional surgical treatment. Then, they either underwent surgery with curative intent or did not, according to patients choice and surgeons indication / contraindication. We performed a retrospective revision of outcome data by clinical report review or phone calls.
