Filter by:In the population suffering from cancer, children and teenagers are in the majority. For children with rapid development of body and mind, with the change of cognitive ability, they will feel anxiety and fear about the expected potential negative events. Painting art therapy is a kind of non-verbal psychological therapy through the interaction between the painter, the painting work and the therapist, with the painting creation activity as the intermediary. The purpose is to develop symbolic language, touch the inner subconscious, and integrate into the personality, so as to produce cognitive and behavioral changes. Painting therapy and psychological analysis can improve the treatment compliance of children bone tumor patients, make psychological nursing and health education of patients more targeted, and promote the cooperation between medical care and patients.
Phase II, multicohort, single arm, open-label, multicenter, international clinical trial with three cohorts (cohort A: Soft tissue sarcoma, cohort B: Bone tumors (osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma and cohort C: Small round-cell sarcomas (Ewing's sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, desmoplastic small round-cell tumors and other small round cell sarcomas)) with 7 sites in Spain. Main objective: To evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) in the irradiated nodules according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. Treatment Medication Trabectedin at 1.5 mg/m2 24-h IV CI along with radiation therapy (30 Gy, 3 Gy/day for 10 days for non-extremity location and 45 Gy, 1.8 Gy/day for 25 days for extremity location of target lesion(s)), starting within 1 hour after the first trabectedin infusion withdrawal (day 2)) will be given every 3 weeks up to progression or intolerance. Premedication 4 mg oral dexamethasone 24h and 12h before trabectedin administration, 20 mg IV dexamethasone 30 minutes before treatment. Ondansetron or analogue will also be given prior to trabectedin.
Microwave ablation of bone tumors is time-consuming and usually results in postoperative fractures. Hence the investigators designed and fabricated a titanium plate customized to the patient's bone structures for fixation after the removal of tumorous tissue, to improve the clinical outcomes of microwave ablation.
The purpose of this study is to monitor fracture risk associated with bone tumors in cancer patients. Previous studies from our lab have suggested that it is possible to compute the mechanical strength of bones with tumors using computed tomography (CT) scans, which are like three-dimensional X-ray pictures of the affected bones. The next step in determining the usefulness of this type of strength analysis is to see if we can accurately predict who is at risk for bone fracture and which patients are at high risk of fractures. This non-invasive analysis may help physicians determine the best treatment to reduce the risk of an impending bone fracture in the future.
This is a randomized clinical trial that will be carried out to examine the use of bioactive glass granules (S53P4) as bone graft substitute in filling small and large bone defects as compared with autogenous and allogeneic bone grafting, respectively.
Bone tumor near the articular cartilage is hard to remove sufficiently without damaging adjacent joint. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of navigation-assisted surgery for saving joint in bone tumor resection or curettage. In this study, the investigators hypothesized that computer-assisted surgery is feasible method to get both enough margin and joint salvage. Each of them is important intermediate factor for either oncologic outcome or functional outcome respectively. The investigators designed this study to find what proportion of patients who underwent computer-assisted resection could get enough margins using some criteria obtained by overlapping preoperative and postoperative images. The investigators also evaluated whether computer-assisted surgery can be feasible for joint saving using some criteria including functional outcome.
The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of a cone beam CT to measure bone healing.
