The purpose of this Phase I study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and safety profile of NBTXR3 activated by radiation therapy for the treatment of patients with pancreatic cancer that has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or may be able to be …
Background: Breast cancer rehabilitation has gradually expanded from post-surgery rehabilitation to continuous rehabilitation including prehabilitation between cancer diagnosis and surgical treatment, post-surgery rehabilitation, and return-to-work/return-home interventions. Continuous rehabilitation provides patients with tailored training at each treatment period, in order to maintain patients' functions or accelerate the recovery of functions, reduce …
In patients with locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), due to the large tumor burden and neck lymph node metastasis, comprehensive treatment is recommended, including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and others. Pre-operative inductive therapy can reduce tumor volume, increase organ retention rate, and reduce distant metastasis rate. Vascular endothelial growth …
Surgery is still the main treatment for esophageal cancer, however, the complication and mortality rate of open esophagectomy is high. As a result, the thoracoscopic- laparoscopic minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) was developed. The MIE mainly comprised two surgical approaches MIE McKeown approach (cervical anastomosis) and MIE Ivor-Lewis approach (intrathoracicanastomosis). The …
Objective: To evaluate the safety, feasibility and clinical efficacy of transthoracic single-hole assisted laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for Siewert Type adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction. Methods: A prospective, single-center, one-arm study will be performed. Patients who have been diagnosed with Siewert type esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma and meet the eligibility criteria will be …
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of avelumab with M6620 in treating patients with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage repair (DDR) deficient solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). DDR deficiency refers to a …
The LPN procedure is performed under general anesthesia. The transperitoneal access to peripancreatic space is via the gastro-colic ligament and greater omentum, effusion and pus is removed by laparoscopic forceps and suction. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is performed during the LPN procedure on patients with indication. The NPN procedure is followed …
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer among Canadian men of which approximately 20-30% present with high-risk tumour characteristic. Although surgery can be curative in patients evidencing pathological high-risk disease (extracapsular extension, seminal vesicle involvement, positive surgical margins), a large proportion will develop biochemical failure within years from the …
The purpose of this randomized pilot study is to collect preliminary data on the impacts of lavender essential oil aromatherapy on the patient-reported quality of pain management provided for the vascular surgery patient population. The investigators hypothesize that individuals who use a lavender aromastick as a part of their pain …
Eligible patients have prostate cancer that was treated with surgery or radiation therapy for localized disease and there is evidence of biochemical recurrence and/or metastases on conventional imaging.The objective of this study is to assess the performance in detection of prostate cancer of a new positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer …
