Codman Catheter/Synchromed Pump Hepatic Artery Chemotherapy for Unresectable Colorectal Metastases/Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
Due to discontinuation of the Codman C3000 pump, an alternate device is necessary to continue serving patients in need of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy. This study aims to test the safety of hepatic artery infusion pump placement, a standard surgical procedure, and intraarterial chemotherapy initiation with the standard medication floxuridine …
NBTXR3 Activated by Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Locally Advanced or Borderline-Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
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 …
A Patient-centered Continuous and Interdisciplinary Shared Decision Making Approach for Breast Cancer Rehabilitation
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 …
Inductive Camrelizumab and Apatinib for Patients With Locally Advanced and Resectable Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
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 …
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 …
A Prospective Clinical Study of Transthoracic Single-hole Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Gastrectomy for Siewert AEG
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 …
Avelumab and M6620 for the Treatment of DDR Deficient Metastatic or Unresectable Solid Tumors
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 …
Dual-scopic Pancreatic Necrosectomy (DPN)
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 …
Postop Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy and LHRH in Patients With Prostate Cancer
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 …
Lavender Aromasticks for Pain Control
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 …
