Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

The morbidity of colorectal cancer and the surgery number among elderly is growing. The investigators need to provide more advanced and specific monitoring technology for these patients. Index of consciousness (IoC) monitor is now widely used among endoscopy, cholecystectomy and other common clinical applications. The investigators goal is to verify whether using IoC monitor could help to improve the postoperative recovery after colorectal surgery.

This study aims to investigate the efficacy of Guided Written Disclosure Protocol (GWDP) in promoting post-traumatic growth through a process of meaning reconstruction in cancer patients at the end of chemotherapy. Also, the intervention (GWDP) intends to reduce distress symptoms (i.e. intrusive thoughts, avoidance, depression and anxiety).

The objective of the clinical trial is to determine the suitability of the FMwand Ferromagnetic Surgical System for Total Mesorectal Excision Surgery.

The study will compare patient's experience between those taking a standard bowel cleansing regimen with minimal laxative tagging regimen of senna and gastrofin. Additionally comparing any possible reduction in diagnostic accuracy that may ensue from an increased quantity of retained faecal residue.

This study will focus on participants in the United Kingdom (UK) to collect local data on the effectiveness and safety of bevacizumab (Avastin) in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer in normal clinical use.

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether there is a correlation between the intestinal side effects of chemotherapy treatment and the expression/activity profiles of glucuronidase enzymes in the stool microbiome of the target patient population.

The primary objective of this study is to estimate overall survival in patients only receiving best supportive care (BSC) for treatment-resistant, metastatic colorectal carcinoma. The primary efficacy outcome is overall survival, defined as the time from the date of the radiographic scan demonstrating disease progression post available treatments (time of origin, T0) to death from any cause.

The purpose of this randomised intervention study is to investigate to what degree patients with colorectal cancer benefit of dietary counselling regarding nutritional status, oncologic treatment and quality of life.

This trial studies nutritional preferences and product accessibility in oral nutritional supplements in participants with breast, colorectal, upper gastrointestinal, or prostate cancer. Learning what participants like and dislike about their current or past used nutritional supplements may help doctor know how to improve them.

The primary objective of this study is to compare an experimental organization for chemotherapy session planning based on early, standardized, and prioritized means of data transmission via secure e-mail (laboratory results) and the use of a smart phone (for clinical toxicity data) compared to the regular organization, in terms of the rate of prescriptions of chemotherapy prepared at the latest the day before a session and then administered in full (over a 6-month observation period) among colorectal cancer patients in need of cancer treatment in an outpatient setting.
