The Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG) is currently seeking applications for a Patient Representative for the Gastro-Intestinal Disease Site Committee. CCTG is an inclusive organization dedicated to building a diverse network. This is a volunteer role for membership on the Gastro-Intestinal Disease Site Committee, the Gastro-Intestinal Disease Site Executive Committee, and the CCTG Patient Representative Committee.
The CCTG Annual Spring Meeting of Participants is fast approaching! We are excited to share important updates and additional information.
This pivotal study is a move away from current ‘one size fits all’ treatment approaches through the testing of a vulvar cancer patients’ tissue to determine the best treatment options. Researchers want to evaluate if the molecular features in tissues removed in the first surgery can direct the need for additional surgery versus a close follow-up for patients with vulvar squamous cell cancer.
CCTG is heartbroken to share the news that, following a long and courageous battle, Suzanne Wood the GI patient representative has passed away. She died at hospital in Toronto with family by her side at the age of 48 on February 9, 2025.
The Canadian Cancer Trials Group (CCTG) has been awarded $742,052 for the PAC5 clinical trial in the CIHR Fall 2024 Project Grant competition. This phase III trial will test lanreotide for the prevention of one of the most severe complications of pancreatic surgery, postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF).
“The PAC5 clinical trial has the potential to change the standard of care for postoperative pancreatic fistula prophylaxis, significantly benefiting patients and reducing healthcare system costs,” says CCTG Senior Investigator, Chris O’Callaghan.
