Filter by:Immune modulating effects and safety of Vvax001; different dosages will be tested in patients with a history of (pre) malignant cervical lesions.
Living donor uterus transplantation between identical twins, with IVF before and ET several months after transplantation. The donor should have completed childbirth.
This trial aimed at evaluating the acceptability of HPV self-sampling among french women eligible for cervical cancer screening (25 - 65 years old) in the region of Occitanie, in the south of France. Acceptability will be evaluated using an anonymous questionnaire and the main outcome of the study will be the response acceptability " yes " or " no " for HPV self-sampling. Secondary outcome will be analysis of socioeconomic determinants for the acceptability of HPV self-sampling. These data will help to propose new strategies for cervical cancer screening in France, particularly to taget non-attenting populations
By utilizing fitness trackers, this study aims to demonstrate that a simple walking program improves patients' ability to tolerate curative concurrent chemoradiotherapy without treatment interruption.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate safety and feasibility of single brachytherapy application with dose delivery in multiple fractions. Study will be conducted in Phase I/II clinical trial setting with strict Image guidance protocol.This study is expected reduce treatment duration and to increase ease and acceptability of brachytherapy in patients along with significant saving of resources
This is a 2-part trial: a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation study in subjects with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors, with a consecutive Phase 2 expansion to evaluate efficacy in subjects with recurrent, unresectable, or metastatic (advanced) cervical cancer that has progressed after a platinum-based treatment regimen.
From the global burden of Cervical Cancer (CC), 85% occurs in developing countries, representing 12% of cancer in women. In Mexico CC ranks second in incidence and mortality among women. The National Institute of Cancer in Mexico (lNCAN) receives annually about 500 patients with CC, 80% of which are diagnosed with locally advanced disease. Furthermore, 10 to 20% of these present kidney deterioration. The main reason for kidney disease is ureteral obstruction, other causes include age and comorbidities, such as diabetes and hypertension. The standard treatment for locally advanced disease consists in concomitant chemo-radiotherapy based on cisplatin (QT-RT), followed by brachytherapy, with an absolute benefit of 10%. However, the use of cisplatin in patients with renal disease may be questionable, considering it is a nephrotoxic treatment. Given that renal dysfunction limits the standard treatment efficiency because of the widely known nephrotoxicity of cisplatin, in most Cancer Centers of our country, patients with renal dysfunction receive only radiation therapy, even though it has proven less effective than concomitant QT-RT, limiting disease-free and overall survival of these patients. Venook et al. used gemcitabine as a radiosensitizer in patients with cancer and renal dysfunction. Our group, has observed encouraging results using gemcitabine as an alternative to cisplatin in concomitant treatment with radiotherapy, in CC patients with renal insufficiency. 89% of patients had complete response and improvement in renal function, with an enhanced creatinine clearance after treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the safety of gemcitabine as an alternative treatment for CC patients with locally advanced disease and renal deterioration. We propose this clinical trial to assess the safety of treatment with gemcitabine and specifically on renal function in patients with renal deterioration. It is important to take into consideration that CC in advanced stages produces pain, transvaginal fetid discharge and general discomfort. It also causes side effects secondary to renal failure such as nausea, vomiting, fatigue, anemia, among others. These effects have a significant impact on the quality of life of these patients. Cancer treatment and its side effects, besides the implications of a nephrostomy catheter or ileostomy bag, determine the deterioration in the quality of life of the patient, during and sometimes after treatment. Thus it is of utmost importance to evaluate the factors that could help improve the quality of life of patients and explore the factors that deteriorate it. This clinical trial aims to generate scientific evidence to help make the best decisions concerning the treatment of patients with cervical cancer and renal impairment, and the impact on their quality of life.
The standard treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer is concurrent chemo-radiotherapy. This treatment is associated with long term side effects in around half of patients with up to 10% suffering from grade 3-4 toxicity. The development of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) allows for shaping of radiotherapy fields to reduce the doses delivered to organs at risk (OARs). This does appear to reduce the risk of long and short term toxicity (although there is little randomized evidence). However pelvic organ position varies both between and even during radiotherapy fractions; this means that radiotherapy margins must be generous to allow adequate coverage of the clinical target volume (CTV) but this also increases dose to OARs. There have been a number of studies evaluating pelvic organ motion in cervical cancer as well as assessing different adaptive radiotherapy strategies. These have included individualized margins, plan of the day and adaptive techniques. Most of these studies have been carried out using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging which is often poor quality with limited soft tissue contrast. MR offers better visualization of the tumour and OARs and is used for imaged guided brachytherapy treatment. This study will explore the role of MR imaging in adaptive radiotherapy for cervical cancer with development of a number of theoretical treatment strategies.
Studies have reported Muslims in the US and NYC face numerous language and healthcare access barriers. This is a randomized randomized controlled design will be used to test the efficacy of a Patient Navigation (PN) intervention to increase participation in breast and/or cervical cancer screening among Muslim women age 40 - 75 years living in NYC. Study participants will be randomized to an Lay Health Workers (LHW) led small media intervention arm (SM-LHW) or a LHW-led patient navigation plus small media intervention arm (PN-LHW). A specific aim of the study is to develop, implement and evaluate the efficacy of a two-arm, randomized control trial designed to increase receipt of breast and/or cervical cancer screening among Muslim women aged 40 -75 years in New York City (NYC).
In order to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing interventions aimed at the early detection of cervical cancer, health belief and participation in the screening of women aged 40-55 at risk for the purpose of cervical cancer, One-way blind pre-test and post-test randomized controlled trial.
