Active clinical trials for "Stomach Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of ESD(Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection) for early gastric cancer analyzing short-term and long-term results of endoscopic treatment.

Background: Researchers are trying to learn what causes certain types of cancer to spread to other organs in the body (metastasis). Cancer tumors may produce a very small number of specific cells (cancer stem cells) that cause the tumors to grow in other organs throughout the body. By examining cancer tumor tissue, normal tissue, blood, bone marrow, and other body fluids, researchers may determine whether these samples contain cancer stem cells. Cancer stem cells may provide information on whether the cancer will come back or spread before other routine x-ray studies or lab tests indicate its presence. Objectives: To acquire a collection of solid organ cancer stem cells for future study. To analyze solid organ cancer stem cells from various types of cancer on a genetic level. To determine if solid organ cancer stem cells are present in the blood or bone marrow. Eligibility: Patients 16 years of age and older who have solid organ cancer (cancer in the liver, colon, rectum, anus, pancreas, stomach, breast, skin, muscles, fat, connective tissue, uterus, ovary, cervix, vagina, vulva, or inner lining of the abdomen) or a precancerous growth, and who are scheduled to have a biopsy or surgery to remove the cancer as part of their treatment. Design: This is a prospective trial designed to procure solid organ cancer stem cells before either surgery or biopsy. All patients registered to this trial will undergo surgery to extirpate their cancer in the NCI Prior to surgery or biopsy, 8 tablespoons of blood will be drawn. During the surgery or biopsy, a sample of normal tissue will be removed along with the cancerous or precancerous tissue. If separate consent is given, samples of bone marrow will also be taken. After discharge, patients will return to the clinic for routine visits every month for the first 3 months following surgery, and then about every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 years. During the visits, patients will have routine blood and imaging studies done, and researchers will take additional blood samples (about 8 tablespoons at each visit) and optional bone marrow samples (4 teaspoons every 6 months) to be used for research.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of nitrocamptothecin in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic stomach cancer that cannot be removed during surgery.

A Phase 1b, open-label, dose escalation study of PRS-343 in combination with atezolizumab in patients with HER2-positive advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

The incidence of gastric cancer is the highest in China, and surgery is one of the most effective treatment methods. Da Vinci robot radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer has the advantage of minimally invasive and fine operation. However, due to complicated perigastric anatomy, abundant blood supply and wide distribution of lymph nodes, it is widely used in clinical use of .Combine the 3D printing technique with imaging examination (digestive endoscopy,3Dct cta/ctv, etc.) ,making the 3D model of da Vinci robot assisted radical gastrectomy can fully show the anatomical relationship around gastric cancer, determine the flow and variation of splenic portal vessels, and the distribution of splenic hilar lymph nodes. In order to eliminate the imagination difference of spatial anatomical structure before operation, it is easier for surgeons to optimize the operation plan, to control the operation process and to improve the accuracy, and to adopt individualized operation suitable for the patients.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Apatinib combined with PD-1 antibody Sintilimab for for Chemotherapy-Refractory Advanced Metastatic Gastric Cancer

AZD8186 is an orally-dosed, selective Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) β/δ inhibitor that binds to PI3Kβ and PI3Kδ, and inhibits kinase activity and downstream pathways in vitro and in vivo. AZD8186 has shown significant anti-tumor activity in PTEN-deficient preclinical models, including prostate, triple negative breast cancer, squamous lung and germinal center diffuse large B-cell lymphoma models. PTEN deficiency is reported in approximately 20% of patients with gastric cancer and in 35-48% of those with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)-positive gastric cancer. To date, there have been no clinical trials with AZD8186 alone or in combination with paclitaxel in advanced gastric cancer. Therefore, it is very important to conduct clinical trials of combination therapy of AZD8186 and paclitaxel in patients with metastatic/recurrent gastric cancer who have failed previous therapy, and to identify the clinical factors and biomarkers that predict effects of the combination therapy. The purpose of the study is to define the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of paclitaxel and AZD8186 combination therapy in patients with advanced tumors and to evaluate the efficacy of paclitaxel and AZD8186 combination therapy as a second-line therapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer with PTEN aberrations. This study is divided into Phase 1b and Phase 2.

The purpose of this study is to explore the feasibility of 4K Laparoscopic Surgery for Gastric Cancer.

This study is to conduct a randomized controlled trial of two kinds of radical gastrectomy for patients with proximal gastric cancer. One is laparoscopic D2 radical total gastrectomy combined with spleen-preserving No.10 lymph node dissection , another one is laparoscopic D2 radical total gastrectomy without clearing the No. 10 lymph nodes of the spleen. We explore the effect of the two procedures on the survival of patients, as well as the surgical complications associated with the two procedures, the number of lymph node dissection, the operation time and the amount of intraoperative blood loss. Furthermore, we also want to discuss the application value of laparoscopic lymph node dissection for spleen preservation in radical gastrectomy for proximal gastric cancer.

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and survival benefit of etoposide plus cisplatin and irinotecan plus cisplatin in first-line therapy of non-primary pancreatic metastatic and/or unresectable gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor G3 type. In addition, the investigators will explore the resistance mechanisms of gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumor G3, and screen out biomarkers that can predict the efficacy of chemotherapy.
