Mean adenomas detected per procedure, MAP Proximal Adenoma detection rate, pADR Polyp detection rate, PDR Proximal polyp detection rate, pPDR Mean polyps detected per procedure, MPP Withdrawal time, WT Cecal intubation rate, CIR Cecal intubation time, CIT

Evaluation of Satisfaction & Efficacy of Compression Using Surgical Gloves in Peripheral Neuropathies Due to Chemotherapy

This is a neoadjuvant Phase 2a, open-label trial in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma who are undergoing a complete resection of the metastatic colorectal tumors in their liver.

This trial will evaluate the combination treatment of established chemotherapy regimen mFOLFOX6 with Selinexor, an oral Selective Inhibitor Of Nuclear Export, in patients with metastatic Colorectal Cancer. The purpose is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of selinexor in combination with mFOLFOX6.

The purpose of this study is to determine efficacy and safety of cabazitaxel administration in patients with colorectal cancer resistant to standard treatment.

This is a Phase 2 multicenter, randomized, parallel arms, double-blind study of vanucizumab to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vanucizumab in combination with oxaliplatin, folinic acid, and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (mFOLFOX-6) versus bevacizumab (Avastin) + mFOLFOX-6 in participants with previously untreated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The study consists of 2 parts: a safety run-in open-label, single-arm part (Part 1) and a randomized, parallel-arms, double-blind part (Part 2). During Part 1 at least 6 eligible participants will receive 2000 milligrams (mg) vanucizumab every 2 weeks + mFOLFOX-6 in order to confirm the dose and schedule that will be used in Part 2. In Part 2, all eligible participants will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to receive either mFOLFOX-6 + vanucizumab or mFOLFOX-6 + bevacizumab. Study treatment (induction and maintenance) will be given on Day 1 of each 14-day cycle. Induction therapy will consist of up to 8 cycles of mFOLFOX-6 plus either bevacizumab or vanucizumab. Maintenance therapy will consist of 5-fluorouracil and folinic acid plus either vanucizumab or bevacizumab for up to 24 months or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, Investigator decision or consent withdrawal, whichever occurs first.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether therapy with MORAb-004 is effective and safe in the treatment of metastatic, colorectal cancer.

This multicenter randomized, placebo-controlled phase II study will enroll 132 first-line palliative treated subjects with metastatic KRAS wild type CRC. Subjects with histologically confirmed, KRAS wild-type CRC without previous chemo-therapy for metastatic disease will be screened for this study. Approximately 10 sites in Austria will participate in the study. Subjects will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 into two groups.

This phase 2 trial aims to evaluate the continued use of bevacizumab with raltitrexed and oxaliplatin combination versus FOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer whose disease has progressed after irinotecan-based chemotherapy.

Colorectal cancer is the third most common form of cancer found in the United States. To date surgical resection provides the best chance for cure. Unfortunately, despite "curative" surgery, tumor recurrences develop in 30-40% of patients from either unforeseen residual metastases or from viable tumor cells shed into the circulation before or at the time of surgery. There is evidence from both humans and mice suggesting that tumor growth is stimulated after surgery for a period of time. This study calls for the administration of a green tea extract and a milk thistle extract, two orally ingested supplements, during the week immediately before and weeks after your surgery. It is not the current standard of care to give anti-cancer drugs during the perioperative period. The basic idea behind this study is that it should be beneficial to inhibit cancer growth in the days leading up to and following surgery. Why is this the case? It makes sense to limit or inhibit tumor growth before surgery with drugs provided it can be done safely and does not interfere with the surgery. It is also logical to give anti-cancer drugs after surgery because, unfortunately, about 35 percent of colorectal cancer patients, after resection, have hidden tumor cells that remain in the body. There is also strong human evidence that tumor growth is stimulated during the first month after tumor resection as a result of the surgical injuries and the healing process. Therefore, there is good reason to give anti-cancer drugs as soon as possible after surgery in order to offset some of surgery's negative effects. Although both supplements have been given safely to a wide variety of patients with a number of different medical problems, the two supplements together have never been given to cancer patients during the weeks just before and following surgery. The researchers hypothesize that the administration of these two supplements together will be safe in the period surrounding colorectal cancer surgery.
