Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) for unresectable Lymph Node Metastases.
The primary objective of the study is to investigate whether treatment with BG00012 (dimethyl fumarate) compared with placebo slows the accumulation of disability not related to relapses in participants with SPMS; The secondary objective of the study is to assess the effect of BG00012 compared with placebo on patient-reported outcomes, brain atrophy, and cognitive function.
The investigators have identified underuse of secondary prevention medications at discharge of patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in China. The aim of this study is to develop series of quality improvement strategies focusing on secondary prevention medications for patients underwent CABG, and to evaluate their effectiveness and safety via a hospital-level cluster randomized clinical trial. The investigators established a network of 60 hospitals which have participated into Chinese Cardiovascular Surgery Registry and submitted 50 or more CABG surgeries already. The participating sites will be divided into intervention and control groups in a 1:1 ratio. The intervention group will undertake intervention of quality improvement strategies, while the control group will maintain the routine practice pattern. All hospitals will consecutively enroll and submit data of CABG during the enrollment period, estimated for 6 months. The prescribing rates of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), beta-blockers, statins and aspirins will be compared between 2 groups.
This pilot clinical trial studies combined fluorine F 18 sodium fluoride (NaF)/ fludeoxyglucose F 18 (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in measuring response to a drug, radium Ra 223 dichloride (Ra-223), in treating patients with prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy and has spread to other parts of the body. Combining NaF/FDG in a simultaneous PET/MRI scan may help doctors accurately measure how well patients respond to treatment with radium Ra 223 dichloride.
Cancer that has spread to the brain, or brain metastasis, is difficult to treat. Meclofenamate is a drug which has been shown to reduce brain metastasis growth in the laboratory. This medicine has been used in the past to treat pain. But, in this study, it will be used to prevent new brain metastasis. This is the first time that meclofenamate will be used in patients with brain metastasis. This is a pilot study which means that the purpose of this study is to determine if a larger clinical trial of meclofenamate is possible in patients with brain metastasis. This study also aims to find out what effects, good and/or bad meclofenamate has on the patient and the cancer that has spread to the brain. The investigators also want to learn more about potential effects that this drug may have in the digestive system.
There is no world-wide consensus on the oncological benefit versus increased morbidity associated with three field lymphadenectomy in patients with esophageal cancer and cervical lymph node metastases. In Asian countries, esophagectomy is commonly combined with a three field lymphadenectomy, including resection of cervical, thoracic and abdominal lymph nodes. However, in Western countries patients with cervical lymph node metastases are generally precluded from curative treatment.
The clinical trial is a stage 3 study to determine the role of fentanyl transmucosal in the prevention of pain induced by mobilization in patients receiving a bone metastasis radiation for bone metastasis irradiations
This is an open label fixed dose phase Ib of anti-CEA CAR-T cells hepatic artery infusions and yttrium-90 SIR-Spheres in patients with CEA-expressing liver metastases.
This is a Phase 1 clinical study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of AB-16B5 in patients with an advanced solid malignancy. AB-16B5 is a humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits the activity of the secreted form of clusterin (sCLU), a potent inducer of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Eligible subjects will have a disease that has been refractory to prior therapy and is unlikely to benefit from known therapies.
This is medical research evaluating the safety and efficacy of two new medicines (necitumumab and abemaciclib), administered in combination in participants affected by a defined type of advanced lung cancer (stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer).
