Filter by:The clinical trial is planned as a prospective, multicentre, blinded, randomised, placebo-controlled, national clinical trial in Germany. The clinical trial is designed for testing the prophylactic and therapeutic effects of Aconite pain oil as compared to placebo in oncological patients receiving neurotoxic chemotherapy with taxanes and/or platinum derivatives.
A prospective, open-label and parallel non-randomized control trial and biomarker research study is intended to compare incidence of repeated COVID-19 infection, severe pneumonitis and mortality between lung cancer patients undergoing systemic antitumor therapies who get vaccinated with 1 booster dose(majorly against XBB) and those who refuse. Meanwhile, a biomarker research is designed to monitor serum level dynamics of specific antibodies against COVID-19,analyze its correlation with incidence of breakthrough infection and further explore optimal periods for vaccination.
The investigators aim to determine the effect of cryotherapy wraps plus compression therapy (henceforth referred to as cryocompression) versus cryotherapy wraps alone on the incidence and degree of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with gynecologic cancer using a noninferiority design. The investigators also aim to determine the effect of cryocompression versus cryotherapy on patient tolerability and patient and staff satisfaction.
The HiToP ® 191 PNP an certified device licensed for the treatment of neuropathia. The home-based treatment is to be performed only in accordance with the approved Investigational Plan (CIP) on subjects who have signed an informed consent form. Device use is limited to the approved study investigators. The study is multicenter, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled. Primary Objective: Comparison of the change of paresthesias from baseline until end of therapy between the two patient groups, assessed by questionnaires Secondary Objectives: Further symptoms of neuropathy as well as on health-related quality of life.
Conduct a retrospective and prospective study to confirm the association between blood cells counts and the efficacy and safety in immunochemotherapy in patients with advanced esophageal cancer.
The goal of this randomized controlled study is to assess the effect of guided imagery on chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting in pediatric hematology-oncology patients. Participants will receive either guided imagery+routine care or routine care. The researchers will compare nausea and vomiting and vital signs between groups.
The purpose of the proposed study is to provide a clinical approach to chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) prophylaxis in cycle 2 of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy or highly emetogenic chemotherapy for patients who developed breakthrough CINV after cycle 1 based on the available data in the literature as well as the recommendations provided by established guidelines
This study aims to assess biomarkers and their related polymorphisms in the context of cancer-associated thromboembolism, with a particular focus on their interaction with the immune system. The roles of immune checkpoints, inflammatory and angiogenesis factors, as well as circulating immune cells will be elucidated. Additionally, our investigation extends to the exploration of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) and genes associated with the coagulation vascular system. Initially, these aspects will be evaluated in the context of colorectal cancer, with the intention to expand our research to other solid tumors. The identification of these biomarkers and genetic factors holds the potential to revolutionize therapeutic approaches for patients with cancer-associated thromboembolism, shedding light on their chemotherapy resistance. The effectiveness of combining immunotherapy with targeted inhibitors like Palbociclib and anticoagulants such as Rivaroxaban, among other potential interventions, will be assessed. This study aims to make significant contributions to the understanding of these critical aspects, ultimately leading to the development of more effective treatment strategies for cancer patients.
This is a single center prospective observational cohort study that aims to: - examine and identify possible risk and susceptibility factors for the incidence and progression of chemotherapy-induced polyneuropathy (CIPN) in female patients primarily operated for early non-metastatic breast cancer who will receive adjuvant chemotherapy containing paclitaxel - test different neurophysiological methods for early detection of CIPN - explore changes that underlie the development of CIPN in relation to clinical presentations, neurophysiological assessment, including measures of small nerve fiber dysfunction, and possible biochemical, metabolic and genetic associations - explore the effects of CIPN in the patient's lifestyle and quality of life for up to 12 months after the initiation of treatment
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of cryotherpay on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy(CIPN) among Breast Cancer Patients. The main questions of research are: - Does cryotherapy reduce the incidence of CIPN? - Does cryotherapy reduce the severity of CIPN and improve the quality of life? Participants will be put on the cold gloves and boots during chemotherapy injection process and total 90 minutes. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare usual care group to make sure if it effects of CIPN.
