NCT06192862
In Hong Kong, Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranked second in both cancer incidence and mortality, accounting for 16.7% of all new cancer cases and 14.6% of all cancer-related deaths in 2019. There was a staggering 2.5-fold increase in the number of newly diagnosed CRC cases from 1584 to 2019. The fecal immunochemical test (FIT) helps reduce the incidence and mortality of CRC and is widely used for population-based CRC screening. The government-subsidized CRC screening program was launched in Hong Kong as a pilot in 2015 and fully implemented in 2020. The program was subsidized for asymptomatic Hong Kong residents, aged 50-75 years, to receive FIT screening every two years. A subsidized follow-up colonoscopy was offered for a positive FIT result. For a negative FIT result, the participant was advised to repeat the screening two years later. Despite the subsidy and promotion, the uptake rate of the population-based colorectal cancer screening was low. Only 275,000 (\~10%) underwent FIT screening under this program as of 31st December 2021. Efforts have been made to increase the rate. Outreach is the active dissemination of screening outside of the primary care setting, and it also includes mailing, texting, and calling to encourage scheduling of screening procedures. It was technically infeasible to conduct fecal test outreach by mailing the test kits in Hong Kong because the government-subsidized colorectal cancer screening program required consultation with a primary care physician to assess the subjects' health condition, and their eligibility before distributing the fecal test kits. Similar to colonoscopy screening outreach, an alternative method is to provide contact information with primary care physicians located in the subject's preferred district via mobile messenger-based chatbots to arrange a consultation for FIT screening. Chatbots have already proven to be useful in increasing the intention to vaccinate against COVID-19. Moreover, CRC screening uptake is highly associated with Health Belife Model (HBM) constructs and high risk perception of developing CRC is associated with higher screening uptake rate. HBM-based education and Trans-Theoretical Model (TTM)-based personalized risk assessment of CRC may increase the screening uptake rate by improving their knowledge of CRC screening (in terms of susceptivity, perceived benefits, and cues to actions) and informing subjects that they are at a relatively higher risk of developing CRC. The CRC screening uptake rate in Hong Kong was 10%, and there is no established evidence to increase the uptake rate of FIT screening for CRC by outreach using mobile health technology or psychological theory-based interventions. A theory-based mobile messenger-initiated chatbot is a potential solution to this problem.
NCT02600949
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best way to give personalized peptide vaccine in patients with pancreatic or colorectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced). Personalized peptide vaccine is a vaccine developed from patient's own tumor cells and blood in order to use as a biological therapy. Biological therapies, such as personalized peptide vaccine may attack tumor cells and stop them from growing or kill them.

A study of carcinogenesis-related molecular markers in the patients with colorectal cancer and colorectal adenoma.
NCT06340711
The goal of this study is to learn about of the research study drug, telomelysin (OBP-301), in combination with pembrolizumab in advanced or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. The main question it aims to answer is whether this combination is safe and effective in this type of cancer. Participants will receive 5 injections of OBP-301, approximately every 2 weeks. OBP-301 will be injected directly into the tumor during an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD). At the same time as the injection, a tumor biopsy will be taken. Participants will also receive pembrolizumab infusions every 6 weeks until disease progression or for a maximum of two years. Pembrolizumab infusions will occur on different days than OBP-301 injections.

NCT06423326
This phase II trial tests how well gemcitabine, cisplatin and nab-paclitaxel given before surgery (neoadjuvant) works in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that can be removed by surgery (resectable) or that is borderline resectable. The standard treatment for resectable and borderline resectable pancreatic cancer is a combination of surgery and chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant therapy is more feasible and could improve outcomes compared to patients receiving surgery first. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Nab-paclitaxel is an albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation of paclitaxel, an antimicrotubule agent that stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Nab-paclitaxel may have fewer side effects and work better than other forms of paclitaxel. Gemcitabine, cisplatin and nab-paclitaxel may be an effective neoadjuvant treatment option for patients with resectable or borderline resectable pancreatic cancer.
NCT05005117
This is a randomized, controlled, parallel, multicenter trial to compare post-operative complications and long-term results between open and laparoscopic technique in emergency colorectal surgery.
NCT07544589
This is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label study of DISP-10, a combination therapy consisting of DV-10 (adenovirus) and idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel, BCMA-directed chimeric antigen receptor \[CAR\] T), in adult participants with advanced gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. The study will consist of 2 parts: dose-escalation (Part 1) and dose-expansion (Part 2). Part 1 of the study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of increasing dose levels of DISP-10 to establish the recommended dose for expansion (RDE); Part 2 will evaluate the safety and efficacy of DISP-10 in participants treated at the RDE.
NCT07543848
This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a combination treatment including a PD-1 inhibitor (serplulimab), oncolytic virus H101, short-course radiotherapy, and XELOX chemotherapy as total neoadjuvant therapy in patients with locally advanced low rectal cancer (cT1-3N0M0). In this prospective, multicenter, single-arm phase II study, eligible patients will receive a standardized treatment regimen consisting of intratumoral injection of oncolytic virus H101, short-course radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy over multiple cycles. Tumor response will be assessed using imaging, endoscopy, and clinical evaluation after completion of treatment. The primary objective is to determine the 1-year clinical complete response rate. Secondary outcomes include tumor response rate, organ preservation rate, survival outcomes, and treatment safety. The results of this study may help improve treatment strategies for rectal cancer, increase the rate of complete response, and provide more opportunities for organ preservation while maintaining safety.
NCT03981146
An open-label, single-arm, phase II, multicentre clinical trial to determine the rate of durable clinical benefit of nivolumab in patients with class II expressing microsatellite stable colorectal cancer.
NCT07541924
Colonoscopy is the cornerstone for colorectal cancer screening, diagnosis, and post-treatment surveillance. Procedural quality is influenced by patient anatomy, particularly variations in colonic configuration such as sigmoid redundancy, looping, and low-lying transverse colon. These features prolong insertion time, increase patient discomfort, and elevate physician workload. Evidence suggests that prior CT imaging can provide objective and individualized information on colonic anatomy-such as redundancy, angulation, and tortuosity-potentially predicting procedural difficulty. However, existing studies are mainly retrospective or descriptive, lacking prospective randomized evidence on clinical utility. This single-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluates whether image-assisted colonoscope insertion, based on pre-existing abdominal/pelvic CT scans, can improve cecal intubation time, enhance patient experience, reduce operator workload, and improve overall examination quality compared with standard colonoscopy.
NCT07542041
The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate whether the NEO-Match® test, based on ARTIDIS nanomechanical profiling technology, can help predict treatment outcomes and improve clinical decision-making in patients with suspected pancreatic cancer undergoing biopsy. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Can the NEO-Match® test predict how patients respond to neoadjuvant (pre-surgical) treatment for pancreatic cancer? * How well does the NEO-Match® test detect malignant pancreatic lesions compared to standard histopathological assessment? This is a prospective, single-arm study. Researchers will compare results from the NEO-Match® test with standard clinical outcomes, imaging findings, and pathology results to evaluate its predictive and diagnostic performance. Participants will: * Undergo a standard-of-care pancreatic biopsy or surgical procedure * Provide an additional biopsy sample for research analysis using the ARTIDIS ART-1 device * Continue to receive standard treatment and care, which is not influenced by the study * Have clinical data, imaging results, and treatment outcomes collected * Be followed every 3 months for up to 2 years The study does not involve experimental treatment or changes to standard medical care. The information collected may help improve future diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment selection for patients with pancreatic cancer.
NCT03660826
This phase II trial studies the effects of the combination of olaparib and durvalumab, cediranib and durvalumab, olaparib and capivasertib, and cediranib alone in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Olaparib, cediranib, and capivasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Testing the combinations may lower the chance of endometrial cancer growing or spreading compared to usual care.
