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
NCT04248452
Recruiting
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 x-rays, gamma rays, or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in usual chemotherapy, such as leucovorin, 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine, wor... Read More

Shorter Chemo-Immunotherapy Without Anthracycline Drugs for Early-Stage Triple Negative Breast Cancer
NCT05929768
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effects of shorter chemotherapy (chemo)-immunotherapy without anthracyclines to usual chemo-immunotherapy for the treatment of early-stage triple negative breast cancer. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called anti-microtubule agents. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be bette... Read More

Bowel Function After Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy
NCT04263896
Recruiting
Postoperative constipation affects up to a third of women undergoing minimally invasive (MIS) gynecologic surgery and is a major source of anxiety and discomfort. The average time to first bowel movement after gynecologic surgery is about 2 to 4 days and some factors responsible for this include anesthesia inhibitory effect on gastrointestinal motility, opioid pain medication use, chronic NSAID use and anatomic manipulation. There are no established regimens to manage postoperative constipation... Read More

XL092 (Zanzalintinib) for the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Leiomyosarcoma
NCT06571734
Recruiting
This phase II trial tests how well zanzalintinib (XL092) works in treating patients with leiomyosarcoma that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) or that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Leiomyosarcomas are a type sarcoma that can occur in any location in the body, such as the uterus or in the abdomen. Current standard treatment for leiomyosarcoma only shows a progression-free survival of 4-6 months. XL092, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, inter... Read More
