Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

Background: - T-cells are white blood cells that can find and kill germs and tumors. Cancer can keep T-cells from working. Researchers think a new drug called AMP-224 might help the T-cells in people with cancer. They think the drug might work even better when combined with a certain type of radiation therapy. Objective: - To study the safety and effectiveness of AMP-224 together with 1 or 3 days of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) directed to the liver. Eligibility: - People age 18 and older with metastatic colorectal cancer. Their cancer must have spread to the liver and not be responding to treatment. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Their tumors will be measured with computerized tomography (CT) scans or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest, stomach, and pelvis. They will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) heart test. Participants will have a small part of their tumor removed by needle (biopsy). Participants will have 8 study visits over about 10 weeks. At 1 visit, they will have another tumor biopsy. At 1 visit, they will get a chemotherapy drug through a vein (intravenous (IV)). At 6 visits, they will receive AMP-224 through an IV. At 1 or 3 visits, they will have SBRT. Computed tomography (CT) scans will map the position of their tumor. Radiation beams of different intensities at different angles will be directed to the tumor. At all visits, some screening procedures may be repeated. After treatment ends, participants will have 7 follow-up visits over about 5 months. Blood will be drawn. Some screening procedures may be repeated.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fluorouracil (5-FU), levofolinate calcium (l-LV), oxaliplatin (L-OHP) and irinotecan hydrochloride hydrate (CPT-11) (FOLFOXIRI) plus bevacizumab in untreated metastatic colorectal cancer patients who harbor Uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) *1/*1, *1/*6 or *1/*28.

This study is being done to test the safety and effectiveness of the combination of intravenous (IV) romidepsin and/or oral 5-azacitidine with IV MK-3475 in people with microsatellite stable (MSS) advanced colorectal cancer.

Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is considered to be a gold standard of therapy of colorectal lateral spreading tumors (LST) without significant risk for lymphatic spread. According to the investigators previous study, local residual neoplasia (LRN) after conventional endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR)occurs in up to 21% of cases. Endoscopic therapy of LRN was not sufficient in 53 % and has not been standardized yet.

This is a multi-institutional, single arm, open-label, phase II study, including a safety run-in cohort. No randomization or blinding involved.

Limiting surgical stress and managing postoperative pain are well understood to influence recovery and outcome from major surgery for colorectal cancer and both are fundamental aspects of enhanced recovery protocols. Traditional approaches for dealing with these problems such as epidural or patient controlled intravenous opioid analgesia are associated with problems that may be detrimental to postoperative recovery and surgical outcome. As a result there is evidence in the literature of increasing interest in alternative techniques such as intrathecal anaesthesia or continuous wound infusion of local anaesthetic, however nobody has examined the effect of combining the techniques or their impact on the surgical stress response. We intend to compare patients undergoing major resections for colorectal cancer receiving intrathecal anaesthesia in combination with a wound infusion of local anaesthetic with those receiving a continuous wound infusion alone. We will examine the surgical stress response and postoperative pain control in addition to objective measures of postoperative recovery. We suggest that our approach will attenuate the surgical stress response and provide optimal pain control that will ultimately translate in improved recovery and outcome following surgery for colorectal cancer.

Phase I Multicenter, Open-label, Clinical and Pharmacokinetic Study of Lurbinectedin (PM01183) in Combination with Capecitabine in Patients with Unresectable Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC), Pancreatic Cancer (PC) or Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (CRC) to determine the recommended dose (RD) of PM01183 in combination with capecitabine, to characterize the safety profile, to explore the feasibility of PM01183 dose optimization, to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK), to obtain preliminary information on the clinical antitumor activity of this combination and to conduct an exploratory pharmacogenomic (PGx) analysis.

This research study is evaluating a drug called isoquercetin to prevent venous thrombosis (blood clots), in participants who have pancreas, non small cell lung cancer or colorectal cancer.

Fruquintinib administered at 5mg once daily in 4 weeks treatment cycle (three weeks on and one week off) was well tolerated and demonstrated encouraging preliminary clinical antitumor activity in patients with advanced Colorectal Cancer (CRC) in Phase Ib study. This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib in the treatment of patients with metastatic CRC who have progressed after metastatic CRC second line or above standard chemotherapy.

Open- Label, Single Arm Study. To evaluate the safety profile of Orectalip® (oxaliplatin), fluorouracil and leucovorin as adjuvant therapy in the treatment of high-risk stage-Ⅱ colorectal cancer. Primary end point:To evaluate the incidence of grade 0-3 neurosensory symptoms (paresthesia) in the end of study. Other end points:The incidence of Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, nausea, diarrhea vomiting over the 12 weeks. Safety will be evaluated including vital signs are recorded at all visits.
