Filter by:Data of 100 colorectal cancer patients with liver metastases who received stereotactic radiotherapy of Cyberknife or microwave ablation in the multicenter of the research group from June 2019 to May 2021 were collected, as well as follow-up data.To evaluate the clinical efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy and microwave ablation in liver metastases.In addition, the local control rate and side effects of stereotactic radiotherapy and microwave ablation in the treatment of liver metastases were explored, and the efficacy and safety of different doses of stereotactic radiotherapy were determined.
Data of 100 patients with spinal metastatic tumor who received stereotactic radiotherapy or conventionally-fractionated image-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy in the multi-center of the research group from July 2019 to June 2021 will be collected, as well as their follow-up data.Previous treatment and follow-up data will be analyzed to evaluate the clinical efficacy comparison of stereotactic radiotherapy and conventionally-fractionated image-guided intensity-modulated radiotherapy for spinal metastatic tumors, local control rate and side effects, and to clarify the effectiveness and safety of different doses of radiotherapy.
Bone tumors make up about 3-5% of childhood cancers and less than 1% of cancers in adults. Of these, osteosarcoma (OSS) is the most commonly diagnosed primary malignant bone tumor. OSS is a primary mesenchymal malignant tumor of bone characterized by the production of osteoid or immature bone by the malignant cells. Despite its rarity, OSS is the most common primary malignancy of bone in children and adolescents, and the fifth most common malignancy among adolescents and young adults aged 15 to 19 years. Ewing sarcoma (ES) is the second most frequent bone tumors in children and may arise also in soft tissues. This disease encompasses tumors formerly known as Askin's tumor, Peripheral Neuroectodermal Tumor (PNET) and the Ewing Sarcoma Family of Tumors (ESFT). Chondrosarcoma are rare sarcoma reputed chemorefractory in the non-operable setting and for which little is known in terms of palliative management with systemic treatments. Despite adequate loco-regional treatment, up to 40% of patients with sarcoma, soft tissue or bone, will develop metastatic disease. When metastases are detected, the standard of care is based on palliative chemotherapy with a median survival in this setting of only 18 months. A slight improvement has been obtained over years thank to registration of a couple of drugs such as Trabectedin and Pazopanib, the first antiangiogenic registered for soft tissue sarcoma patients. Pazopanib is routinely prescribed worldwide after failure of first line chemotherapy in soft tissue sarcoma. However, bone tumors have not benefited from these small advances yet and treatment still rely on chemotherapy combining doxorubicine cisplatinum and ifosfamide. There is no standard in relapse and palliative settings, and after failure of these agents the survival is very poor. Bone sarcomas are therefore tumors with very little available data and low level of evidence on palliative systemic treatments in clinical trials and in the real life setting. The primary objective of the METABONE study is to conduct a retrospective descriptive analysis of clinic-biological profiles, patterns of care and modalities of treatment for a set of patients with malignant bone tumors in a real-life national setting.
Local percutaneous thermal ablation is frequently proposed in the management of metastatic diseases. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has demonstrated good results when the metastatic disease is limited and slowly evolving. The destruction of solid metastasis by RF leads to inflammatory and immunological mechanisms that remain poorly understood. These pathological events may influence the overall and anti-tumor host immune responses. The purpose of the study is to identify and quantify some immune mechanisms triggered by RFA of pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer origin.
In renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients, lymph node metastases detection and treatment are the most critical issues in daily clinical decision-making. Indeed, conversely to other oncological settings, a) nodal status imaging, b) sentinel node technique and c) standard lymphadenectomy have been demonstrated inadequate in the staging and management of RCC patients. A novel, accurate, standardized imaging technique is urgently needed in RCC setting to detect macro and micro nodal invasion, to identify those patients who are at higher risk of having nodal metastases, to accurately plan the best management. Recent studies suggested combining 18F-FAZA PET with CT scanning in the detection of cancer-induced hypoxia.The investigators propose to test 18F-FAZA PET-CT in detecting nodal metastases to improve the management of RCC patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ASP9801 and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). The study will also evaluate antitumor activity, objective response rate, pharmacokinetics and virus shedding of ASP9801 as a single agent, as well as in combination with pembrolizumab, an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) checkpoint inhibitor.
Hypo-fractured radiotherapy in stereotactic conditions (RSHF) of bone metastases allows high doses to be delivered to the affected bone segment while sparing adjacent healthy tissues as well as possible. In addition, it not only reduces pain and prevents spinal cord compression, but also improves long-term control of metastatic disease. Zoledronic acid reduces bone complications. The economic literature shows that stereotactic radiotherapy, like zoledronic acid, are cost-effective strategies in these indications. The objective of this research project is to evaluate the efficiency of adding zoledronic acid to stereotactic radiotherapy in the treatment of vertebral metastases.
Following treatment for a primary extremity sarcoma, patients remain at risk for the development of local and systemic disease recurrence. Metastasis (distant recurrence) to the lung is the most frequent single location of disease recurrence in sarcoma patients, occurring in almost half of all patients. Therefore, careful post-operative surveillance is an integral element of patient care. However, the detection of metastases does not necessarily affect long-term survival and may negatively impact quality of life. Surveillance strategies have not been well researched and have been identified as the top research priority in the extremity sarcoma field. Using a 2X2 factorial design to maximize efficiency and reduce overall trial costs, the SAFETY trial will randomize 830 extremity soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) patients to determine the effect of surveillance strategy on overall patient survival after surgery for a STS of the extremity by comparing the effectiveness of both surveillance frequency (every 3 vs. every 6 months) and imaging modality (CT scans vs. chest radiographs).
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death for women around the world. Notably, most breast cancer patients die from tumor metastases in the liver, lungs, bones, or brain, not the primary tumor itself. Currently, clinicians are generally successful in treating primary tumors using standard protocols that are based on tumor sub-type and staging, as well as by the presence or absence of prognostic biomarkers. However, it remains difficult to assess in advance the likelihood of metastasis or relapse in any given patient.Physicians can only rely on regular post-treatment screening to monitor any secondary onset. By the time metastasis is detected, the golden window for treatment adjustment has often already passed. This project proposes to develop an analytical tool for predicting the likelihood of metastasis in breast cancer patients post-treatment using imaging and genomic data. We will evaluate our prediction model using prospectively-collected patient data. This new prognostic tool will enable physicians to adjust and tailor therapeutic strategies to each patient in a timely manner. Overall, the tool will personalize patient care, and improve their survival chances and quality of life.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of SNK01 (autologous natural killer cell), as a single agent and in combination with avelumab or pembrolizumab, for the treatment of subjects with advanced and/or metastatic refractory cancer that has failed three or more prior lines of conventional standard of care therapy.
