Filter by:This is a prospective, cohort study to evaluate the impact of cerebellar functional topography on perioperative outcomes related to cognition and motor ataxia in patients with cerebellar tumors.
The objectives of this registry study are to evaluate real-world clinical outcomes and patient reported outcomes that measure the effectiveness and safety of STaRT.
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) for upper extremity pain related to spasticity in patients with spinal cord injury.
Evaluate the diagnostic performance of a virtual reality application to detect the presence of cognitive impairment of the non-dominant hemisphere in patients with glioma
High field MR-technologies are expected to boost metabolic spectroscopic imaging (MRSI), but also CEST-MRI. This is due to the fact that increased SNR is available which can be used to increase the spatial resolution of all sequences, or reduction of measurement times. Recent findings has shown that MRSI can be used to evaluate the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) status of gliomas, a brain tumor type which is most often diagnosed in humans. Patients with IDH-mutated gliomas have a much longer survival time that IDH-wildtype. In IDH-mutated gliomas the substance 2-hydroxy-glutarate (2HG) is found, whereas in IDH-wildtype gliomas it is not. The underlying trial aims to measure 2HG directly with different MRSI sequences at 3 Tesla (3T) and 7 Tesla (7T) magnetic field strength. Apart from MRSI-techniques for IDH-typing it has been shown that CEST-imaging can also be performed to determine the IDH-status of gliomas. A total of 75 patients and 50 healthy controls will be examined in this study to evaluate the most accurate method for pre-operative IDH-status determination.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the treatment regimen of using Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) and Hypo-fractionated Radiation Therapy to treat patients with recurrent gliomas.
In this study, the characterization of human malignant glioma cell lines is described. After mechanical and enzymatic digestion of glioblastoma human biopsies from Neuromed IRCCS Neurosurgery patients, the investigators analyzed the established cell lines by immunohistochemistry. The investigators have already characterized 10 cell lines and results revealed that not all cell lines are positive for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), but only one was positive: the so-called COGI cell line. Moreover, the expression of Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1(IDH1) and alpha thalassemia/mental retardation syndrome X-linked protein (ATRX) was investigated in all established cell lines. COGI cell line was also positive for IDH1R132 mutation and for ATRX. The results of characterization were summarized in table 1.
This study is designed to assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetic profiles, immunogenicity of GB222 in Chinese patients with relapsed/progressive high-grade glioma; moreover, changes in cerebral edema, changes in KPS score from baseline, objective response rate (ORR), 4-month progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS)will be evaluated. The dose reduction of hormone during continuous administration period will be observed.
Aim of this study is to investigate the influence of social factors on participation and activity among children and adolescents aged 10-18 years with leukemia, brain tumors, and sarcomas. Furthermore personal and treatment-related factors and their impact on participation will be explored
The Multi-OutcoMe EvaluatioN of radiation Therapy Using the Unity MR-Linac Study (MOMENTUM) is a multi-institutional, international registry facilitating evidenced based implementation of the Unity MR-Linac technology and further technical development of the MR-Linac system with the ultimate purpose to improve patients' survival, local, and regional tumor control and quality of life.
