Currently, there are no clear guidelines regarding the optimal timing for dietary restart after gastrointestinal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). While several studies have addressed upper gastrointestinal ESD, a meta-analysis reported that early feeding, initiated within one day after the procedure, showed no statistically significant difference in complication rates compared to delayed feeding initiated after two or more days. Moreover, early feeding was associated with shorter hospital stays and higher patient satisfaction. However, to the best of our knowledge, no studies have investigated early feeding in colorectal ESD. On the other hand, in the context of surgical procedures involving the gastrointestinal tract, several studies suggest that early feeding may offer clinical advantages over delayed feeding. The aim of this study is to explore the optimal timing for dietary restart following colorectal ESD. In the early feeding group (\<24 hours), patients begin water intake if no abnormalities are observed during a follow-up examination conducted two hours post-procedure. If no further issues arise after an additional two hours, a liquid diet is initiated. In contrast, the delayed feeding group (\>24 hours) maintains fasting on the day of the procedure and begins a liquid diet the following day. The study will compare the early and delayed feeding groups in terms of early post-procedural adverse events (occurring within 24 hours after the procedure)(e.g., bleeding, perforation, post-coagulation syndrome), patient satisfaction, and delayed post-procedural adverse events (occurring more than 24 hours after the procedure).

This is a single-arm, open-label, phase II study evaluating the clinical outcomes of local therapy (surgery or radiotherapy) to the primary tumor in patients with EGFR-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have achieved disease control following first-line treatment with the FLAURA2 regimen (osimertinib plus platinum-based chemotherapy). The primary objective is to assess the median progression-free survival (PFS) after local therapy.

This study aims to evaluate the long-term outcomes of discontinuing 5-ASA in UC and CD patients receiving stable biologic or immunomodulator therapy using a prospective cohort based in the Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam region. It seeks to determine whether discontinuing 5-ASA is a safe treatment strategy in modern IBD management.

Research Hypothesis: Treatment with dasatinib 100 mg QD is superior to imatinib 600 mg QD in terms of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) in chronic phase (CP) Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) subjects who are imatinib failures or who have achieved only a suboptimal response after 3-18 months (12-77 weeks) of therapy with imatinib 400 mg. Primary Objective: The primary objective of this study is to compare the rate of CCyR of dasatinib (100mg QD) to high-dose imatinib (600 mg QD) therapy at 6 months after randomization in CP Ph+ CML subjects who are imatinib failures or who have achieved only a suboptimal response after 3 - 18 months of imatinib monotherapy at 400 mg/day.
