Sepsis in cancer patients
Part of Cancer, Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how sepsis (a severe infection that can cause organs to fail) affects cancer patients. It aims to improve understanding and care for this serious condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- For the sepsis part: You are in the intensive care unit (ICU) with a diagnosis of sepsis, which means you have an infection and your organs are not working properly.
- For the elective part: You are having major upper stomach surgery or a stem cell transplant for blood cancer.
- Your medical team agrees you are suitable for this study.
- You provide consent, or someone can consent for you, or you can be included later if you are too sick to consent at first.

This study watches how infections grow and respond to treatment in cancer patients who may have sepsis. It aims to find better ways to diagnose and monitor sepsis early, which could improve care and outcomes.
This study looks at how the immune system reacts to sepsis (a severe infection that causes organs to fail) and whether there are lasting effects on health. It may help researchers understand why some people recover well and others don’t.
This trial studies treatments for sepsis, a serious infection complication, in ICU patients. It aims to find better ways to care for critically ill patients with sepsis.
This trial studies people with and without sepsis in the ICU to understand why some get very sick from infections. It aims to find better ways to predict who will have complications and guide treatment.
This study looks at how the immune system works in people who are critically ill with sepsis. By understanding these changes, doctors hope to find better ways to treat this serious condition.
This study looks at how severe infections (like sepsis) affect the body's immune system over time. It may help researchers find better ways to help patients recover.
