In this international collaboration study, the research group will analyze somatic mutations of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) developed after sustained virological response (SVR) in patients treated with hepatitis C (HCV) therapy
Gastric cancer associated peritoneal carcinomatosis has a poor prognosis with a median survival of less than one year. Systemic chemotherapy including targeted agents has not been found to significantly increase the survival in Gastric cancer associated peritoneal carcinomatosis. Since recurrent gastric cancer remains confined to the abdominal cavity in many patients, regional therapies like aggressive cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy have been investigated for Gastric cancer associated peritoneal carcinomatosis. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been used for three indications in Gastric Cancer- as an adjuvant therapy after a curative surgery, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been shown to improve survival and reduce peritoneal recurrences in many randomised trials in Asian countries; as a definitive treatment in established PC, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy along with cytoreductive surgery is the only therapeutic modality that has resulted in long-term survival in select groups of patients. While the results of randomised trials of adjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy from western centres are awaited, the role of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in the treatment of Gastric cancer associated peritoneal carcinomatosis is still evolving and needs larger studies before it is accepted as a standard of care.
This study determine the maximal tolerate dose
The aim of this pilot study is to assess the efficacy of radiation segmentectomy with Theraspheres in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma that would qualify for thermal ablation as per the BCLC guidelines, but are unable to receive thermal ablation due to unfavorable location of target lesions.
The study is a phase I multicentre randomized, open, parallel-arm clinical trial conducted to investigate the IMP, namely 111In-CP04. The study consists of preclinical (to establish a clinically useful formulation for the radiolabelled peptide CP04), and a clinical step. The main objective of the clinical part of the project is to establish the safety of i.v. administration of a high peptide amount and to assess the tracer biodistribution and dosimetry in MTC and normal tissues and to determine critical organs as well as the evaluation of the potential of CCK2 receptor scintigraphy to detect cancer lesions for both low (10ug) and high (50ug) peptide amount and the decrease of kidney dose after co-administration of gelofusine /gelaspan as a nephroprotective agent. To achieve this, the following study design has been accepted: the first 4 patients will receive 2 peptide amount of CP04: low peptide amount (for diagnostic purpose) and high peptide amount (for therapeutic purpose) of CP04. If no SAE is present, the remaining pts will be randomized for 2 arms: high peptide amount of 111In-CP04 with and without gelofusine/gelaspan infusion. It is expected that CCK-2/gastrin receptor imaging will become a valid diagnostic method for a specific non-invasive staging and follow-up of patients with MTC, and treatment of recurrent and disseminated disease will be more efficient with minimized nephro- and myelotoxicity (if 111In labelled).
This is multicentre, open-label, single-arm phase II study that investigates the feasibility, safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, costs, and pharmacokinetics or repetitive electrostatic pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (ePIPAC-OX) as a palliative monotherapy for patients with isolated unresectable colorectal peritoneal metastases.
Chiauranib, which simultaneously targets against VEGFR/Aurora B/CSF-1R, several key kinases involved in tumor angiogenesis, tumor cell mitosis, and chronic inflammatory microenvironment.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of nivolumab and find out what affects, if any, nivolumab has on people and their risk of gynecologic cancer. The investigators also want to find out what effects, good or bad, nivolumab has on the patient and their cancer.
