Filter by:PARP inhibitors have changed the treatment paradigm of ovarian cancer. Most patients using PARP(poly-ADP ribose polymerase) inhibitors will suffer different grades of adverse events(AEs), followed by dose reduction. It has not been reported whether the dose-reduced olaparib as maintenance treatment have an impact on efficacy. Both PAOLA-1 and AVANOVA 2 studies showed that combined PARP inhibitors and antiangiogenic drugs have synergistic anti-tumor effect. Anlotinib is a novel multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can inhibit VEGFR(vascular endothelial growth factor receptor), FGFR(fibroblast growth factor receptor), PDGFR(platelet-derived growth factor receptor) α/β, c-Kit, and Ret. And anlotinib has been approved as orphan drug designations for treatment of ovarian cancer by FDA in 2015. Previous studies showed that anlotinib had manageable toxicity and promising antitumor effect. Our study is expected to investigate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib combined with dose-reduced olaparib as maintenance treatment in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients.
Niraparib is an oral, potent and highly selective PARP1/2 inhibitor. It can be used as a single drug in HRD positive ovarian cancer patients for multi-line therapy. Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits tumor angiogenesis and is also recommended for the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer. Clinical studies showed that niraparib combined with bevacizumab could significantly prolong progression free survival of platinum sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer. We intend to conduct a single-arm, prospective, open-label, phase II study to observe the efficacy and safety of niraparib combined with bevacizumab in the treatment of FIGO III/IV platinum refractory/resistant ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer and primary peritoneal cancer. The results are expected to provide more effective and precise treatment for platinum resistant recurrent/refractory ovarian cancer patients.
A randomized, split-plot, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The varicose ulcer is divided into two (side A and B). Half of the wound's surface is treated locally with insulin (Glargine) applied at an approx depth of 3-4 mm. Treatment with insulin is administered for 7 days. Biopsy specimens of the two sides are obtained on days 0 and 7. A thermographic photograph of the wound is taken at days 0 and 7. The number of blood vessels and fibroplasia is evaluated as the main outcome.
According to current clinical guidelines adjuvant treatment in colon cancer is not recommended in patients with stage I and IIA, and in patients with high risk factors (IIB) adjuvant treatment has not shown a clear benefit in recurrence or survival. However, more than 20% of these patients have recurrence. This high percentage raises the possible understaging of current methods, so in recent years different methods have been developed in order to obtain a correct staging that have allowed a greater detection of micrometastasis (less than 2mm). The performance of the detection technique of the sentinel node in colon cancer allows us to perform this study in 1-3 lymph nodes, so that performing in all the nodes removed in a piece would be imposible in daily clinical practice for time, personnel and economic resources needed to do it. This technique achieves between 5-15% of overstaging which means that in stages I and IIA can lead to a change in the indication of adjuvant treatment. Despite this, the influence of ganglion micrometastases on survival is still controversial. This leads to consider other factors that may influence tumor aggressiveness, such as an increase in angiogenesis that allows the viability of implants less than 2mm. Therefore, we propose that elevated levels of VEGF (angiogenesis marker) in patients with sentinel lymph node micrometastases can lead to a worse prognosis. Based on these premises, the aim of the study is to assess the correlation between the levels of serum and tumor VEGF-A and VEGF-C (markers of angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis) and the evolution of the disease in patients with lymph node micrometastases.
External Counterpulsation Therapy (ECP) is a therapeutic procedure that performed on patients with angina or heart failure to relieve the ischaemic symptoms, improve functional capacity, and quality of life. In recent studies, ECP has already proved to reduce angina symptoms, decrease degree of ischemic in heart train test. External Counterpulsation Therapy (ECP) therapy is a non-invasive technique for sequentially pressuring calf, lower thighs, and upper thighs through developed cuffs at pressure above systolic blood pressure when diastole, then deflated at systole.
Angiogenesis is inherently associated to bone formation and healing. During implant osseointegration, a successive and successful angiogenic processes has to occur to promote bone formation. In 1969, Branemark et al. demonstrated that direct contact between bone and titanium implant surface was possible, defining osseointegration as "the direct, structural, and functional contact between live bone and the surface of a functionally loaded implant". Consequently, the need of an empirical measurement appeared. With the introduction of resonance frequency analysis (RFA), it is now possible to measure the degree of implant stability at any time during the course of implant treatment and loading. In this way, changes in implant stability can be monitored over the time and it is likely possible to find implants at risk of failure before they become loose. The rationale of this study is to analyse how important a good vascularization is for the future bone formation around dental implants.
Bevacizumab has become the standard of care of recurrent glioblastoma based on promising clinical trial results with with response rates up to 50% and progression-free survival up to 9 months. In our study, we set to find the serum angiogenesis biomarkers of bevacizumab response.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in combination with second-line FOLFOX or FOLFIRI for metastatic colorectal cancer in patients with disease progression during or after first-line therapy.
In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the indirect revascularization outcomes of a new combination therapy of multiple burrhole procedure with promotion of arteriogenesis by intravenous (IV) erythropoietin (EPO) pretreatment on Moyamoya patients with acute neurological presentation, and outline the clinical and vascular factors associated with revascularization through the burrholes.
The purpose of the present study was to prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of endostar, a recombinant product of endostatin, combined with taxane-based regimens for HER-2 negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients.
