Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

This is a phase Ib/II clinical study that has two phases. In phase Ib, the safety evaluation of the extract of Petiveria alliacea (Esperanza) will be carried out in patients with metastatic gastrointestinal tumors (colon, pancreas, stomach, and biliary tract) and patients with newly diagnosed and relapsed acute leukemia. In phase IIb, the safety will continue to be evaluated, and the efficacy of the Esperanza extract will be explored in combination with chemotherapy in patients with metastatic gastrointestinal tumors (colon, pancreas, stomach, and biliary tract) with newly diagnosed acute leukemias and relapses.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. Most of the patients with colorectal cancer were diagnosed in poor stage. Although 40% to 50% patients of colorectal cancer can be cured by surgery, but most patients have undergent metastasis or recurrence, and eventually death. In recent years, molecular targeted therapy has shown significant efficacy in specific patients. It was necessary to detect the corresponding molecular targets of tumors before selecting appropriate targeted drugs in clinic. The changing state of related gene molecules in colorectal cancer played a key role in drug selection, there were few effective targets so far. At present, metastasis and recurrence still be the most difficult problems in treatment. Therefore, investigators should deeply study the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer at the gene level and look for new biomarkers to predict the prognosis. Furthermore, the study can clarify the exact molecular mechanism of colorectal cancer. These will be important clinical significance for targeted therapy of colorectal cancer.

COPPER is an international, multicenter, parallel-arm, phase III randomized controlled trial comparing two local treatment strategies (SABR or metastasectomy) for patients with an indication for local treatment for limited (max. three) colorectal pulmonary metastases

This clinical trial evaluates the use of a blood test (Guardant Shield™) for colorectal cancer screening. Colorectal cancer is the third leading cancer and cause of death in the United States. Screening may help doctors find colorectal cancer early when it is easier to treat yet nearly a third of all people eligible for screening have never had a screening test performed. Currently, doctors use a stool- based test such as the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and visual tests such as a colonoscopy. Blood based testing such as Guardant Shield™, may provide a quick and effective way to screen patients that are hard to reach or with limited access (underserved).

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized Trial to assess the safety and efficacy of the Olympus Endoscopy Computer-Aided Detection (CADe) system, OIP-1, in the detection of colorectal neoplasia's during real-time colonoscopy. The aim of this system is to improve physician performance in the detection of potential mucosal abnormalities during colonoscopy performed for primary Colorectal Cancer screening or postpolypectomy surveillance.

The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate the feasibility of SBRT for the management of synchronous oligo metastatic liver metastases from colorectal cancers.

Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignant tumor. Radical resection is the mainstay of treatments for non-metastatic colorectal cancer. In case of traditional laparoscopic surgery, inexperienced assistants are likely to cause side injuries and interfere surgeon due to limited operating space. Reduced-port laparoscopic surgery has only 3 ports for surgeon and observer, and the surgeon completes the surgery independently, which increases the difficulty of the operation. However, reduced-port laparoscopy has some potential advantages and applications. Reduced-port laparoscopic surgery avoids the prolongation of the operation time and parainjury caused by inexperienced assistant. Reduced-port laparoscopy reduces some surgical incisions, resulting in less pain and faster recovery. Reduced-port laparoscopy also reduces the consumables, human resources and medical expenses. This study aims to evaluate the curative effect and safety of reduced-port laparoscopic surgery versus conventional laparoscopic surgery for resectable colorectal cancer.

To measure the level of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the blood of colorectal cancer patients after 6 months of receiving therapy with regorafenib and XmAb20717 (also known as vudalimab). ctDNA is genetic material from tumor cells that can be found and measured in the blood

This is a phase Ib/II clinical study on AK119 and AK112 combined with or without chemotherapy in advanced microsatellite stabilized (pMMR/MSS) colorectal cancer

The investigators hypothesize that gut microbiome composition and the four bacterial gene markers (M3) show dynamic changes after endoscopic resection of advanced neoplasia, some key bacteria are associated with restoration of gut microbiome after endoscopic resection.
