Active clinical trials for "Colonic Neoplasms"

The efficiency of the D3 lymph node dissection is still controversial for left colon cancer patients. This study will try find difference in 5-year overall survival between D2 and D3 lymph node dissection. Investigation of the functional and short-term outcomes will clarify safety of the D3 lymph node dissection.

This phase Ib/II trial investigates the side effects and best dose of LY3214996 when given together with cetuximab alone or in combination with abemaciclib and to see how well they work in treating patients with colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and/or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Cetuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. LY3214996 and abemaciclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving LY3214996 and cetuximab alone or in combination with abemaciclib may help treat patients with colorectal cancer.

INTRODUCTION: Recommendations for peroperative bladder catheterization remain a controversial issue since it is a procedure that is not without complications. Most of the current suggestions derive from open surgery data that have been extrapolated to Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) or Fast-Track programs ranging between 24-48 hours. The objective of the present study is to find the perfect balance with a better degree of evidence than the current one between the reduction of the probing time and the non-increase of the acute retention of urine in the patients operated in a programmed way of laparoscopic colon surgery. Methods: Multicenter, prospective, controlled, randomized non-inferiority study on the management of the bladder catheter in patients undergoing scheduled laparoscopic colon surgery, randomized in two study groups: experimental group (removal of the bladder catheter after surgery ) and control group (removal of the catheter at 24 hours) after the surgical intervention. The main objective of the present study is to reduce the permanence of the bladder catheter trying to find the balance of the probing time and the non-increase of the acute retention of urine in the patients operated in a programmed way of laparoscopic colon surgery As secondary objectives we will consider the decrease in the incidence of urinary tract infections within the first 30 days as well as the reduction in hospital stay and morbidity related to the bladder catheter.

The purpose of this study is to measure tumor response to treatment with ompenaclid (RGX-202) in patients with previously treated RAS mutant advanced or metastatic CRC. All patients will receive treatment with FOLFIRI and bevacizumab. In addition, patients will be randomized to receive either ompenaclid 3000 mg BID or matching placebo (herein referred to as Study Drug). Each treatment cycle is 28 days in duration.

Evaluate efficacy and safety of IBI310 (CTLA-4 antibody) in combination with Sintilimab, for neoadjuvant treatment of MSI-H/dMMR resectable colon cancer

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of perioperative dostarlimab compared with standard of care (SOC) in participants with untreated T4N0 or Stage III (resectable), defective mismatch repair/ microsatellite instability high (dMMR/MSI-H) colon cancer.

Multicentric randomised trial. The goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of serplulimab combined with FOLFIRI+bevacizumab in the treatment of pMMR/Ras/BRAF wild-type unresectable peritoneal metastasis of colon cancer.

To determine the Efficacy and Safety of camrelizumab and apatinib combined with chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6) for MSS/pMMR locally advanced colon cancer.

Colorectal cancer remains the commonest cancer among men, and third commonest among women in Saudi Arabia . Presentation with metastatic disease occurs in almost one third of patients , with 5-year survival decreasing significantly from 90% in stage 1 to 14% once the disease is metastatic . There is enthusiasm in the potential for liquid biopsies to provide easily accessible genetic biomarkers for mutational cancer characterization . Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies are widely used in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer that do not harbor RAS mutations (RAS wild type). Hence genotyping of oncogenic RAS mutations is essential prior to the initiation of systemic therapy for such patients as the presence of these mutations predict resistance to EGFR targeted antibodies such as Cetuximab and Panitumumab . Detection of such mutations has been done on tissue biopsies with the disadvantage of this being an invasive procedure, and data suggesting that such testing may not be reflective of the true mutational burden of the disease since a single fragment of tissue may be inadequate to reflect the intratumoral heterogeneity. There is increasing evidence suggesting that liquid biopsies or blood based mutational profiling can provide a more comprehensive molecular profile of the disease, and carries the advantage of being minimally invasive. Serial liquid biopsies can act as a tool to identify spatial and temporal heterogeneity predicting response or resistance to targeted agents, and can shed light into the emergence (or disappearance) of specific mutations that may potentially be targeted with newer anti cancer agents . Circulating cell free DNA (cfDNA) consists of small nucleic acid fragments liberated from cells by rupture, necrosis or apoptosis, and is now increasingly being used to detect RAS (and other) mutations in patients with advanced colorectal cancers. KRAS has remained an "undruggable" target for decades until the most recent evidence that showed a new anticancer drug that targets KRAS G12C mutation. The investigators aim to perform cfDNA testing on patients with advanced colorectal cancers who have no RAS mutations (and hence start on EGFR inhibitors) as baseline, compare the results with mutational analysis on fresh tumor tissue, and perform cfDNA at first progression to determine what mutations have emerged, and specifically look for KRAS G12C mutation, which can be targeted with a new novel anti cancer drug . These patients will be collected over a 12 month period (with the aim of performing this on at least 100 patients), and followed from diagnosis (with baseline cfDNA) and until progression on EGFR inhibitors (where another cfDNA sample will be taken). A detailed proposal delineating this process will follow once accepted. This project is unique as it examines mechanisms of resistance to anti-EGFR inhibitors in our patients with advanced colorectal cancers, determines the prevalence of a specific mutation using liquid biopsies and examining cfDNA use, and may have therapeutic implications in facilitating obtaining KRAS G12C inhibitors for such patients.

Background: Often, metastatic human papillomavirus (HPV) associated cancers cannot be cured. They also do not respond well to treatment. Some forms of colon cancer also have poor responses to treatment. Researchers want to see if a new drug treatment can help people with these types of cancers. Objective: To find a safe dose of entinostat in combination with NHS-IL12 and bintrafusp alfa and to see if this treatment will cause tumors to shrink. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have cervical, oropharyngeal, anal, vulvar, vaginal, penile, squamous cell rectal, or another cancer that may be associated with HPV infection or microsatellite stable small bowel or colorectal cancer. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam. Their ability to do daily activities will be assessed. They may have imaging scans of the brain and/or chest, abdomen, and pelvis. They may have nuclear bone scans. They will have an electrocardiogram to test heart function. They will have blood and urine tests. They may have a tumor biopsy. Participants with skin lesions may have them photographed. Some screening tests will be repeated during the study. Treatment will be done in 28-day cycles. Participants will get bintrafusp alfa through an intravenous catheter every 2 weeks. They will get NHS-IL12 as an injection under the skin every 4 weeks. They will take entinostat by mouth once a week. They will complete a medicine diary. Participants will get treatment for 2 years. They will have 1-2 follow-up visits in the 30 days after treatment ends. Then they will be contacted every 6 months to check on their health....
