Filter by:This is an observational mono-institutional study. Patients with gynecologic tumors treated with advanced radiotherapy- Image Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT), Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT)- will be included and toxicity and outcomes analyzed.
Women often face common cancers like ovarian, uterine, and cervical cancers. Improvements in cancer detection and treatment mean more women survive. However, survivors can encounter challenges like ongoing pain, treatment complications, and fertility issues. Treating these cancers often involves surgeries that might include removing ovaries or using pelvic radiation. This can trigger menopause in younger women, causing problems like vaginal dryness, itching, and urinary issues. Women who've gone through menopause often deal with these symptoms, affecting their daily lives, confidence, and intimate relationships. Though treatments are available, lack of awareness, embarrassment, and not discussing these issues with doctors can make managing them difficult. The main treatment for these symptoms is using vaginal estrogen, but it might not be suitable for some cancer survivors. Non-hormonal options like lubricants and moisturizers are alternatives. This study in Thailand aiming to explore how common these issues are among gynecological cancer survivors, their feelings about it, and how it affects their quality of life.
This is a prospective cohort study to assess the feasibility of the laparoscopic ultrasound examination, directly by surgeons, during minimally invasive gynaecological surgery. The secondary aims are to examine the learning curve for laparoscopic ultrasound examination and the performance score in obtaining high quality ultrasound images of anatomical parameters by a team of 5 gynecological laparoscopic fellows. The patients' medical history and symptoms will also be recorded to define whether these clinical data can influence the failure rate. With advanced technology, the conventional workflow can be simplified by using laparoscopic ultrasound probes directly by surgeons, to utilize the hospital resources efficiently and to reduce operating times. In this regard, we would like to demonstrate that the application of laparoscopic examination is feasible and easy to learn by surgeons. This innovative technique could open up multiple diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities for the patient, providing potential clinical information useful to the surgeon.
Growing evidence in literature is supporting the role of ultrasound scan (US) as accurate tool in diagnosis and staging of gynecologic cancers. In particular, different studies demonstrated the accuracy of US in assessing endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancer in the primary setting. However, the number of studies investigating the role of US in the recurrent setting is limited. Moreover, there is no evidence in literature exploring the role of US in laterally-extended pelvic recurrences from gynecologic cancer, where the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan is still considered the most accurate tool.
The purpose of this study is to compare two Psychosexual Educational programs for women who have completed treatment for breast or gynecological cancer and their partners in preparation for a well-powered phase III study. The investigators plan to enroll 30 dyads in a 2-arm pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT). The primary aim will be to assess the preliminary efficacy of the Psychosexual Educational Partners Program (PEPP) on sexual communication.
Frailty among patients undergoing surgery is strongly associated with an elevated risk of adverse perioperative outcomes, heightened incidence of postoperative complications, increased mortality rates, and prolonged hospital length of stay. Our focus centers on investigating the frailty index in the context of complications experienced by patients undergoing oncologic gynecology surgery. The principal objective of this research is to elucidate the extent to which residual neuromuscular blocking agents are linked to frailty.
This is a single-center, double-arm, open-label study. this study plans to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD70-targeting CAR-T cells in the treatment of CD70-positive advanced/metastatic Gynecologic Cancer, and obtain recommended doses and infusion patterns.
Comparison of complete decongestive treatment and complete decongestive treatment + cycling ergometry treatment in patients with gynecologic cancer-related lower extremity lymphedema in terms of quality of life, lower extremity functionality and lower extremity volume measurement
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.
A patient with oncological pathology of any type because of impaired digestion and nutrient absorption, decreased intake, and increased nutrition requirements has an increased risk of malnutrition and moderate to severe weight loss.In the present study the investigators will evaluate the impact of perioperative immunonutrition supplementation on the postoperative outcomes.
