chloroquine and Cancer of Pancreas

chloroquine has been researched along with Cancer of Pancreas in 46 studies

Chloroquine: The prototypical antimalarial agent with a mechanism that is not well understood. It has also been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and in the systemic therapy of amebic liver abscesses.
chloroquine : An aminoquinoline that is quinoline which is substituted at position 4 by a [5-(diethylamino)pentan-2-yl]amino group at at position 7 by chlorine. It is used for the treatment of malaria, hepatic amoebiasis, lupus erythematosus, light-sensitive skin eruptions, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index

The Charlson Comorbidity Index is a method of categorizing comorbidities of patients based on the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) diagnosis codes found in administrative data, such as hospital abstracts data. Each comorbidity category has an associated weight (from 1 to 6), based on the adjusted risk of mortality or resource use, and the sum of all the weights results in a single comorbidity score for a patient. A score of zero indicates that no comorbidities were found. The higher the score, the more likely the predicted outcome will result in mortality or higher resource use. Up to 12 comorbidities with various weightings can result in a maximum score of 24. The minimum score is zero. (NCT01978184)

Cancer Diagnosis Stage

"The number of participants in cancer diagnosis stage groups. Stage 0: cancer hasn't spread to nearby tissues/located in the same of origin.Stage I: cancers hasn't grown deeply into nearby tissues or spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body. Stage II and III: cancers have grown more deeply into nearby tissues (may have metastasized to lymph nodes but not other parts of the body). Stage IV: most advanced stage (metastatic cancer) ; cancer has spread to other parts of the body. Stages subdivided further into the categories A (less agressive disease) and B (more advanced cancer). Example: stage IIA is less aggressive than stage IIB, but stage IIIA is more aggressive than stage IIB. (Stage variable used in the proportional odds logistic regression, secondary analysis of Evans Grade)." (NCT01978184)

The Median Progression Free Survival Time Will be Determined.

The time from the start of treatment until documentation of any clinical or radiological disease progression or death, whichever occurred first. Progression is assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST; version 1.1), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

The Quality of Life Will be Analyzed.

The analysis of quality of life is based on European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ-C30). All scales and subscales range from 0 to 100. Regarding physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, social functioning and global health, higher scores may indicate better outcomes. In the case of fatigue, nausea and vomitting, pain, dyspnea, insomina, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea and financial difficulties, lower scores may indicate better outcomes. Scales of all items are independent and not combined to compute a total score. (NCT02704156)
