Active clinical trials for "Esophageal Neoplasms"

The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant percentage of small and rural hospitals and cancer centers. The iCaRe2 advances comprehensive studies of risk factors of cancer development and progression and enables the design of novel strategies for prevention, screening, early detection and personalized treatment of cancer. Centers with expertise in cancer epidemiology, genetics, biology, early detection, and patient care can collaborate by using the iCaRe2 as a platform for cohort and population studies.

This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.

Observational study that will be collecting clinical and molecular health information from cancer patients who have received comprehensive genomic profiling and meet the specific eligibility criteria outlined for each cohort with the goal of conducting research to advance cancer care and create a dataset that furthers cancer research.

Observational prospective cohort study designed to assess the mechanisms of fluoropyrimidine induced cardiovascular toxicity.

This study aims to determine whether a breath test could be used for early detection of oesophageal cancer and Barrett's high grade dysplasia. Patients who are attending for a planned gastroscopy or who are scheduled to undergo elective resection of histologically confirmed early stage oesophageal adenocarcinoma or dysplasia will be approached to provide a breath sample. Multi platform mass spectrometry analysis will be performed to establish volatile biomarkers that can discriminate between early stage (T1) oesophageal cancer/ Hight grade dysplasia from non cancer healthy controls/non dysplastic Barrett's cancer.

The Mayo Clinic Conduit Report Card Questionnaires have been created in order to have a consistent evaluation tools for patients undergoing esophageal reconstruction or treatment or patients that are experiencing an upper digestive disease in order to standardize and validate outcome measures. Data will be used to establish the validation of the questionnaires/survey. Data will also lead to the establishment of "normal" or expected scores for patients undergoing each type of esophagectomy procedure and for upper digestive diseases. Data will contribute to creating treatment algorithms for symptom management for upper digestive diseases and for post-operative complications and symptoms as well as contribute to pre-operative education.

This study aims to development of a database through a web page for epidemiological and clinical research purposes that is accessible to members of the AGAMENON - SEOM group that guarantees a rigorous collection, exploitation and analysis of the data and information contained, increases the knowledge of esophageal and stomach cancer in order to optimize the management, treatment and evolution of patients, the possibility of comparing variables with those of other series or groups, and promotes the quality of scientific publications.

The purpose of ORACLE is to demonstrate the ability of a novel ctDNA assay developed by Guardant Health to detect recurrence in individuals treated for early-stage solid tumors. It is necessary that ctDNA test results are linked to clinical outcomes in order to demonstrate clinical validity for recurrence detection and explore its value in a healthcare environment subject to cost containment.

Residual tumor at the proximal or distal margin after esophagectomy is a known prognostic factor for poor survival outcomes in patients with esophageal cancer; however, the significance of the circumferential resection margin (CRM) remains controversial. In this study, the investigators sought to evaluate the prognostic significance of the CRM in patients with esophageal cancer undergoing resection.

Retrospective review of old patients Analysis of prediction factors for concomitant chemo-radiotherapy in locally advanced and advanced esophageal cancer from 2005 to 2015 Prospective case-control study: RNA sequencing & miRNA microarray naive esophageal cancer patients who have a plan to receive concomitant chemo-radiotherapy acquirement of tissue, blood, clinical information isolation of RNA, DNA, serum database of clinical & demographic information ***Analysis of mRNA sequencing / miRNA sequencing**** first analysis of RNA sequencing: bioinformatician second analysis of RNA sequencing: principle investigator Experimental set for qPCR (esophageal tissue) study group TMA for screened exon gene validation set for qPCR (esophageal tissue) follow-up of circulating miRNA in blood (baseline blood & post-CCRT blood 3M, 6M, 12M) Prediction model for CCRT response in esophageal Cancer based on clinical and molecular factors Validate the prediction model.
