Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

A Phase 2 Study with Safety Lead-in, Evaluating TAS-102 Plus Nivolumab in Participants with Microsatellite Stable Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate whether the therapeutic response of chemotherapy can be improved by focused ultrasound and microbubbles. Patients with liver metastases from breast cancer and colorectal cancer will be included. Computer Tomography (CT) will be performed as a baseline scan before treatment start. Two metastases in each patients liver will be preselected and randomized to either "target lesion" to be treated or "control lesion" to serve as internal control. The patients will receive conventional treatment with chemotherapy according to national guidelines. After intravenous chemotherapy infusion the patients will receive the experimental treatment. The target lesion will get focused ultrasound (FUS). Simultaneously repeated bolus-doses of microbubbles will be administered intravenously. The investigators will measure the difference in response between FUS- treated and -untreated lesions on the post-treatment CT scan.

Primary Objective: To determine disease control rate (DCR) of TS-1® in patients with heavily pre-treated metastatic colorectal cancer Secondary Objectives: To determine objective response rate (ORR) To determine time to progression (TTP) To determine overall survival (OS) To assess incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) [Safety and Tolerability]

Iron deficiency anaemia is a common condition among colorectal surgical patient. Untreated anaemia would lead to increase in blood transfusion, surgical complications and mortality. Treatment with oral iron sulphate is poorly tolerated due to side effects. Intravenous iron supplement provides an alternative way to rapidly replace iron deficit during the preoperative period among surgical patients. Evidence is growing for its effect in rising hemoglobin level and reducing blood transfusion, at the same time supporting its safety profile. The investigators plan for a single-centered, randomized controlled trial to examine the effect of intravenous iron compared to standard care in terms of hemoglobin level/serum ferritin increment, need for blood transfusion, duration of hospital stay, quality of recovery and surgical complication rate, as well as safety profile among colorectal cancer surgical patients in Hong Kong. The investigator propose the following pilot RCT for exploring the effect size and study process in conducting the above-mentioned large-scale RCT.

This is a Phase 2, open-label, 2-part, multicenter study in subjects with MSS relapsed/refractory colorectal cancer. The primary objective of Part 1 is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of eFT508 in combination with a fixed dose of avelumab to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of eFT508 and to select a recommended dose for Part 2. The primary objective of Part 2 is to evaluate antitumor activity of eFT508 at the recommended dose in combination with avelumab or eFT508 monotherapy. Parts 1 and 2 will also evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics.

This is a phase II randomized study of 4-months induction first-line chemotherapy with FOLFOXIRI + cetuximab followed by maintenance with cetuximab or bevacizumab in patients affected by KRAS wild type (wt) mCRC.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of selecting personalized therapies for colon cancer patients who have failed standard treatments, using a new methodology based on the determination of a profile of chemosensitivity by comprehensive genetic expression analysis from tumor samples.

Primary Objective: To provide metastatic colorectal cancer participants with access to aflibercept and to document the overall safety in these participants Secondary Objective: To document the Health-Related Quality of Life of aflibercept in this participants population

This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses of vitamin D supplementation in combination with standard chemotherapy in participants with previously-untreated metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma.

To estimate the progression free survival for subjects treated with panitumumab in combination with a chemotherapy regimen of oxaliplatin, 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin (FOLFOX) as first-line chemotherapy regimen for subjects with metastatic colorectal cancer with WT (wild type) KRAS according to the IGFRp (protein receptor insulin growth factor) and MMP-7 (Matrilysin) expression.
