Researchers are assessing the safety and effectiveness of antihistamines in the treatment of eosinophilic esophagitis.

Vertebral Body Sparing Craniospinal Irradiation for Pediatric Patients With Cancer of the Central Nervous System

This trial studies the feasibility of using intensity modulated proton therapy to deliver craniospinal irradiation while avoiding the bones of the vertebral column. Intensity modulated proton therapy is an advanced radiation therapy modality that uses high energy protons to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors, and may reduce the side …

Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy Combined With Perioperative Toripalimab in Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer

Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery has become the standard treatment option for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC). However, only 20% to 40% of patients can achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant CRT with favorable prognosis and about 10% of patients have disease progression after chemoradiotherapy. How …

This study is aimed to investigate the role of long-term diet adherence on manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease

Single- vs. Two-Fraction Spine Stereotactic Radiosurgery for the Treatment of Vertebral Metastases

Spine radiosurgery (SRS) utilizes advanced treatment planning with focused x-rays to deliver one to four high dose treatments to the spine to help relieve pain and/or neurologic symptoms. Spine SRS uses special equipment to position the participant and guide the focused beams toward the area to be treated and away …

Study of Camrelizumab (SHR-1210) in Combination With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer

This is a randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center phase III trial, comparing the efficacy and safety of treatment with Camrelizumab (SHR-1210) + definitive chemoradiotherapy(dCRT) vs placebo+dCRT for locally advanced esophageal cancer patients in China. Camrelizumab (SHR-1210) is a humanized anti-PD1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody.

A Comparison Between Ivor-Lewis and McKeown Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy

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 …

Testing the Addition of Radiotherapy to the Usual Treatment (Chemotherapy) for Patients With Esophageal and Gastric Cancer That Has Spread to a Limited Number of Other Places in the Body

This phase III trial studies how well the addition of radiotherapy to the usual treatment (chemotherapy) works compared to the usual treatment alone in treating patients with esophageal and gastric cancer that has spread to a limited number of other places in the body (oligometastatic disease). Radiotherapy uses high energy …
