Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare safety and efficacy of Green Light PVP (Photoselective Vaporization of the Prostate) compared to TUR-P in high risk patients
This randomized phase III trial studies metformin hydrochloride to see how well it works compared to placebo in preventing breast cancer in patients with atypical hyperplasia or in situ breast cancer. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of metformin hydrochloride may prevent breast cancer.
The risk of adrenal insufficiency in patients with nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency is not well documented. Indication of cortisol replacement therapy in situation of acute stress or at long term is thus controversial. The mineralocorticoid reserve of these patients has never been evaluated. Hypothesis: The glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid function of the adrenal glands in women with nonclassical 21-hydroxylase deficiency is comparable with the adrenal functions of healthy age- sexe- and BMI-matched subjects.
The main purpose is to describe clinical practices nowadays prospectively about patients with a dysplasia diagnosis or another histological lesions. It will be identified colic situation during the initial colonoscopy after dysplasia diagnosis or atypical lesion. Also the frequency and the type of monitoring conducted about these patients(surgical and endoscopic treatments). The main criterion evaluation will be the surgical and endoscopic rates during the time. The treatments offered such as surgical, endoscopic ones or none of them will be followed. Finally, the outcome of these patients: stability, lesion disappearance, surgery or development of cancer with frequencies for each of them and relationships with histological abnormal colorectal lesion will be measured.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of alpha-blocker monotherapy and alpha-blocker + 5-alpha reductase inhibitor combination therapy in benign prostate hyperplasia patients, and suggest guidelines of the combination therapy.
Currently the standard treatment for early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia is a total hysterectomy (an operation to remove the uterus) and removal of both ovaries. While highly effective, this surgery carries significant side effects for: - young women who still wish to have children and would lose fertility; and - women with one or more disorders (or diseases) in addition to the early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia and/or morbid obesity who are at risk for surgical complications making surgery unsafe. This study will access a new approach to the treatment of endometrial cancer to spare women of having to undergo major surgery that may be unwanted or unnecessary. Mirena is approved in Australia for contraception, to treat heavy bleeding, and to prevent thickening of the lining of the uterus (endometrial hyperplasia) during oestrogen replacement therapy (HRT). However it is not approved to treat early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. This research project will test to see if Mirena is an effective treatment for early stage endometrial cancer and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. Metformin is approved in Australia to treat Diabetes. However it is not approved to treat early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. Therefore, it is an experimental treatment for early stage endometrial cancer and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. This means that it must be tested to see if it is an effective treatment for early stage endometrial cancer and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. Weight loss interventions are feasible and safe, and already being implemented by gynaecologic oncologist to make women eligible for surgery. Weight loss of 7% body weight induces a large biological effect (for example reduces incidence of diabetes by 58%, and hypertension by 26%).
This is a long term follow-up study of the open label, single-center, phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety of Pneumostem® in premature infants with BPD.
This is a single, one time, limited dose infusion of Paclitaxel, that will potentially prevent recurrent stenosis secondary to intimal hyperplasia when compared to the control group at 10 months.
The aim of the study is to evaluate whether tamoxifen at a low dose of 5mg/d reduces in the long term the incidence of invasive breast cancer and ductal carcinoma in situ, DCIS (DIN 1c, 2, 3) of the breast, in woman operated for lobular intraepithelial neoplasia (LIN1, 2 and 3) or ER-positive ductal intraepithelial neoplasia (DIN 1b, DIN2, DIN3, 1a excluded) of the breast. To improve the risk-benefit ratio, the use of lower doses of the drug has been proposed. Biomarker trials revealed that 5 mg/d was noninferior to 20 mg/d in inhibiting proliferation of breast cancer and normal endometrial tissue. By contrast, the risk of endometrial cancer si dose-dependent, and the dose reduction can lead a substantial decrease. Morover a dose of 5 mg/day is associated with an overall decrease of the estrogenic activity of tamoxifen on insulin like growth factor (IGF-I), sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and antithrombin-III, with a decrease of venous thromboembolic events. Moreover, tamoxifen exhibits a high tissue distribution, so that a dose of 5 mg/day attains at the breast tissue level a concentration 10 times higher than that needed to inhibit cell growth in vitro. A prospective cohort study also showed that 10 mg on alternate days halves recurrence of DCIS in postmenopausal women. It has been shown that the treatment of dysplasia or pre-cancer drives the reduction of the invasive neoplasms onset. This is a chemoprevention trial designed to validatate the low-dose Tamoxifen in women with diseases at high evolutionary risk. The demonstration of efficacy and safety of such a treatment for the prevention of the invasive breast cancer would lead improvements in term of survival and quality of life for the patients at increased risk.
