Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

The main purpose of this study is to see how safe the investigational drug known as LY3009120 is and whether it will work to help people with advanced cancer or cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

The purpose of the research is to assess the impact of Protect Your Colon™, a colorectal cancer (CRC) screening decision aid, on patients' CRC screening behaviors. The Investigators hypothesize that Protect Your Colon™, through optimizing shared decision making, will lead to selection of a test that accurately matches patients' values and increase CRC screening uptake. To test this hypothesis, the investigators will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess if provision of Protect Your Colon™ improves communication on CRC screening, intent to complete screening, and ultimately uptake of screening vs. usual care.

A large-scale randomized controlled trial was conducted to compare different colorectal neoplasms screening strategies in China.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new smartphone-based program designed to help African American men get screened for colorectal cancer (CRC). The main question it aims to answer is: ° Are African American men who complete the smartphone-based program more likely to get screened for colorectal cancer than men who do not? Participants will: Complete a baseline survey asking about their colorectal cancer screening history and their thoughts and beliefs about colorectal cancer and the medical system. Be randomized to receive the new smartphone-based program or to receive text messages containing colorectal cancer education materials designed by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The new program sends text messages with information about colorectal cancer. Some of these text messages have links to videos that try to help men overcome anything that may stand in the way of getting screened. Complete a follow-up survey 6 months after the baseline survey. This survey will ask the same questions as the baseline survey. A medical records review will be conducted at 6 months to verify whether participants received a colorectal cancer screening test during the study period. Researchers will compare participants who receive the new smartphone-based program to participants who receive the CDC information. The goal is to see whether the smartphone-based program increasing screening more than standard educational materials available on the internet.

In a cluster-randomized study compare if feedback from two computerized feedback systems doing a colonoscopy (CoPS and CoRS) can improve the adenoma detection rate and decrease patient discomfort.

Study with an investigational drug in patients with recurrent or non-responsive colorectal cancer or other advanced solid tumors. This is an early phase trial and some specific protocol information is proprietary and not publicly available at this time. (Full information is available to trial participants).

Evaluation Of Glypican 3 in serum of colorectal cancer patients . Correlation between Glypican 3 and clinicopathological characteristics of colorectal cancer .

The purpose of this study is to analyze the clinical tolerance of immediate preoperative chemotherapy in terms of toxicity and perioperative morbidity and mortality

The principal objective is to compare the use of mometasone nasal spray to budesonide irrigations in patients suffering from CRSwNP who have never been operated.

Primary Objective: This trial is elaborating a model for rapidly predicting (day 21) the response to monoclonal antibodies anti-EGFR and anti-VEGF (cetuximab and bevacizumab) based on biological markers and/or functional imaging. The response to treatment is evaluated by the conventional method after 2 months (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] criteria). Secondary Objectives: This trial is also analyzing the correlation between the magnitude of response to treatment at 2 months (stabilization or objective response, RECIST criteria) and that of response observed after 6 months of treatment. The organisational objective is to develop a tumour bank of metastatic colorectal cancer. Population: The population includes 252 male and female patients with metastatic colorectal cancer justifying the use of cetuximab or bevacizumab, with no heart disease. Techniques: Computed tomography (CT scan), functional imaging (ultrasound with SonoVue); molecular imaging (positron emission tomography [PET] with fluorodeoxyglucose F18 [18-FDG]); and biology and pathology on microbiopsy of liver metastasis are used. Outcome Criteria: The primary outcome is response to treatment with monoclonal antibodies according to RECIST criteria at two months. Studied Factors: Radiology: CT scan: RECIST criteria (gold standard); Ultrasound with SonoVue injection: 1 representative target (delay of contrast appearance, peak of rising, curve of increase and decrease of the signal, area under the curve, time of average transit). Nuclear Medicine: PET scan and 18-FDG (standard uptake values [SUV]) Molecular Characterization of Tumors: p53 status; microsatellite instability (MSI) status; expression of oncogenes; EGFR status; VEGF status; determination of FcgammaRIIIA polymorphisms Statistics: Descriptive analyses; Analysis of the appropriate threshold to measure: response to treatment by an ultrasound with SonoVue and by PET scan; correlation between response predicted by the ultrasound with SonoVue and the PET; conventional morphological CT at 2 months Analysis of prognostic factors: Evaluation of the role of each prognostic factor (pathology and imaging) on response to treatment; Multivariate analysis of prognostic factors; Analysis of the prognostic power of early response at 2 months on the response observed after 6 months of treatment.
