Malignant Ascites Clinical Trials

This study is designed to compare the efficacy of intraperitoneal paclitaxel in combination with SOX, with SOX alone in the first-line treatment of gastric cancer with malignant ascites

Single center, open label, historical controlled, phase II study that proposes two courses of standard H. Pylori eradication antibiotic therapy can suppress carcinogenesis and improve the long-term outcomes of patients with PMP. The first course of antibiotics (PrevPac) will be administered before cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC and the second course ...

All data entered into the registry documenting the patient cohort characteristics (disease, demography, therapy) are analyzed using descriptive statistics. Survival data are analyzed with Kaplan-Meier statistics. Multivariate Cox Proportional Hazard Models are used to identify potential prognostic and predictive factors. In particular, a risk- adjusted comparison of the outcome criteria ...

The handling of patients with PSM involves multimodal and multidisciplinary treatment strategies such as CRS, the removal of all macroscopically detectable tumor, and HIPEC, instillation of heated chemotherapy in the abdominal cavity to remove residual cancer disease. The treatment is challenging and complex and associated with significant morbidity. Only patients ...

As a drug carrier, erythrocytes have their own advantages, such as high biocompatibility, high immune compatibility, simple structure and easy access. In this study, microparticles released from erythrocytes are used as the carrier of chemotherapy drugs and effectively kill tumor cells in malignant ascites. These microparticles can easily reach the ...

Peritoneal metastasis(PM) is common in advanced gastric cancer and associated with a poor prognosis. The median survival time is 3 to 4 months and even shorter in the patients with malignant ascites. Systemic chemotherapy is considered to be less effective against peritoneal metastasis (PM) due to the existence of the ...

To evaluate the tolerance and safety of cinobufacini injection intraperitoneal treatment on digestive system cancer patients with malignant ascites, and propose dosage regimens for future clinical trials. A single-arm, non-randomized, open, drug tolerance trial will be conducted. The clinical trial is divided into two parts, including single and successive administration.The ...

The study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in patients with refractory malignant ascites. A total of 120 patients with performance status 0-2 were enrolled in this study and 500mg apatinib tablets were administered orally, once daily until disease progression or intolerable toxicity or patients withdrawal of ...

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine if the addition of metformin to standard adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus extended metformin (metformin hydrochloride) beyond standard chemotherapy increases progression free survival when compared to 6 cycles of standard chemotherapy alone in non-diabetic subjects with stage III (with any gross residual disease) or stage ...

Malignant ascites leads to significant morbidity in patients with terminal cancer. Paracentesis can provide relief, but repeat hospital visits, pain, and short duration of relief after paracentesis are detrimental to quality of life(QOL). Two devices are available as alternatives to paracentesis. The impact of either device on QOL has not ...
