Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

To Observe the Efficacy and Safety of Pyrotinib Maleate in Patients With HER2-positive Advanced Colorectal Cancer

The objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of CAPOXIRI+BEV therapy versus FOLFOXIRI+BEV therapy as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).

Research efforts are necessary to identify strategies to increase colorectal screening in underserved patient populations. Racial, ethnic minorities and medically underserved individuals continue to experience disparities in colorectal cancer mortality despite the availability of screening tests that can detect tumors early when treatments are most effective.

Compare the objective remission rate of A140 and Erbitux combined with mfolfox6 regimen in the first-line treatment of Ras wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer for 12 weeks

Bowel obstruction is a common complication in patients with ovarian, peritoneal and bowel cancer due to a mass or spread of disease, causing narrowing to the gut, as these cancers can grow on the bowel surface. Certain foods may lead to symptoms such as pain, bloating, feeling full, feeling sick, vomiting and difficulty passing a bowel motion. There is limited evidence to establish the best diet to follow when someone is diagnosed with the risk of bowel obstruction and is experiencing symptoms after eating and drinking. The Dietitians at the Royal Surrey have developed a 4 stage bowel obstruction diet which they have been using with patients for 3 years. The 4 stages are clear fluids, all thin liquids, low fibre soft smooth diet, low fibre soft sloppy diet. Depending on the severity of symptoms and the risk of a blockage, patients are asked to follow a certain stage of the diet. They are advised to move up and down the stages as symptoms improve or get worse. This feasibility study aims to investigate if the diet can be used and is effective in clinical practice. The objectives are to see if this diet is easy to follow, can reduce symptoms of bowel obstruction, can improve quality of life, and reduce admissions to hospital because of bowel blockages. Patients at risk of bowel obstruction from colorectal or ovarian cancer are eligible to participate. They will remain in the study for a period of 4 weeks, during which time they will be asked to complete a diet diary and 3 questionnaires.

Previous preclinical study has shown that high levels of ascorbic acid (AA) possesses the ability to kill human colorectal cancer cells and high expression of GLUT3 will augment the efficacy of AA. To date, no previous studies have investigated the therapeutic role of AA in peritoneal metastatic colorectal cancer with high expression of GLUT3. This protocol is a randomized controlled study of AA infusions combined with FOLFOXIRI +/- bevacizumab versus treatment with FOLFOXIRI +/- bevacizumab alone in peritoneal metastatic colorectal cancer patients with high expression of GLUT3.

This is a single-arm,open-label, prospective, single-center Study of QL1101 and JS001 in patients with pMMR/MSS refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. QL1101 is a biosimilar of bevacizumab (Avastin) produced and provided by Qilu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., which has been marketed in China.It's a humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody prepared by recombinant DNA technology. By binding to human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), it inhibits the binding of VEGF to its receptor, blocks the signal transduction pathway of angiogenesis, and inhibits tumor cell growth. Be produced and provided by Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co., Ltd. ,JS001(Tripleitriumab) is the first China-developed humanized monoclonal antibody against programmed death 1 (PD-1) approved for marketing in China. Antiangiogenic drugs combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibodies may reverse the insensitivity of pMMR/MSS refractory colorectal cancer to PD-1 inhibitors. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of the subjects who given the combination therapy.

The prognosis of patients with metastatic right-sided colon cancer is worse than that of patients with metastatic left-sided cancer. Different guidelines have different recommendations on specific conversion therapy for colorectal liver metastases. The United States NCCN guidelines do not recommend standard chemotherapy combined with anti EGFR monoclonal antibody for patients with right colon cancer. The European ESMO guidelines recommend that patients with Ras / BRAF wild-type right-sided colon cancer should first consider three drugs ± bevacizumab, but considering the objective response rate results, standard chemotherapy + anti EGFR monoclonal antibody is still one of the choices. China CSCO guidelines recommend standard chemotherapy ± bevacizumab, and also recommend standard chemotherapy + cetuximab for patients with right-sided colon cancer. Therefore, the targeted therapy for RAS / BRAF wild-type metastatic right colon cancer is still controversial. Therefore, we are ready to carry out the clinical trial of cetuximab and bevacizumab in conversion therapy for RAS / BRAF wild-type metastatic right colon cancer. The conversion resection rate is the primary point, and the objective response rate, perioperative safety and long-term survival are the secondary points.

This phase II trial studies how well giving aflibercept together with combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with previously untreated colon or rectal cancer that is metastatic or locally advanced and cannot be removed by surgery. Aflibercept may stop the growth of colon or rectal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving aflibercept together with combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells

Background - Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence is increasing at an alarming rate in Hong Kong. A recent report concluded physical activity (PA) protects against colon cancer and foods low in dietary fibre, red meat and processed meat cause CRC. Yet, the influence of lifestyle factors on cancer outcome (i.e. recurrence and survival rates) in CRC survivors is largely unknown. Objectives & hypothesis - Our study aims to evaluate the acceptability of two behavioural interventions for CRC survivors intended to improve cancer outcome and designed to (1) increase PA levels and (2) reduce consumption of a Western diet. The investigators hypothesize that the proposed interventions are (1) efficacious in changing the two targeted behaviours; and (2) acceptable to CRC survivors. Settings and methods - Phase 2 feasibility trial. Two hundred and twenty-four CRC survivors within 12 months of completion of cancer treatment and without evidence of persistent/recurrent disease will be recruited from four public hospitals in Hong Kong after informed consent. Subjects will be randomized in a 2x2 factorial design for the two targeted behaviours prescribed over 12 months. Primary outcome measure is whether the target levels of PA and dietary intake could be met at the end of intervention. Secondary outcome measures include: (1) magnitude of changes in PA level and dietary intakes; (2) rates and determinants of compliance; (3) facilitators and barriers to behavioural change; (4) measurement of theoretical constructs underlying PA and dietary interventions; (5) possible health benefits and side effects (PA-associated injury and nutritional deficiency) arising from the interventions. Outcome will be assessed at baseline, 6 months into intervention and then at 0, 6 and 12 months post-intervention. Impact - If proven feasible, our intervention programme would pave way for a large randomized controlled trial testing the effect of PA and diet on the treatment outcome of CRC.
