Filter by:The surgical and local ablation strategy for the treatment of resectable synchronous and metachronous colorectal liver metastases(CRLM) has not still been defined. The purpose of this study is to compare two treatment strategies in which simultaneous resection of both primary and secondary tumor of synchronous CRLM(SCRLM) and resection of metachronous CRLM(MCRLM) is compared with resection of primary tumor and ablation of secondary tumor in SCRLM and ablation of MCRLM. Endpoints include the rate of severe complications and survival.
A multi-center phase III randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of Hypofractionated SRS (HFSRS) along with EGFR-TKI in patients with brain metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Assuming that HFSRS is not inferior to EGFR-TKI concurrent with whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), the primary end point is intracranial PFS (iPFS), while secondary outcomes included overall survival (OS), evaluation of cognitive function, quality of life (QoL) and adverse events.
The purpose is to evaluate if sodium fluoride PET in patients having already undergone a choline PET negative for bone extension (non-metastatic status) modifies the status of patients concerning the existence or not of bone metastases. Secondary purposes are: - To evaluate if detection of bone metastasis by sodium fluoride PET, not detected by choline PET, leads to change of treatment - To evaluate inter-technique concordance (choline vs sodium fluoride PET) of results (metastatic status and number of lesions) - To evaluate the inter-judge concordance of interpretation of sodium fluoride PET - To study the discordance of metastatic status of 2 techniques.
Patients with unresectable liver metastases (LM) from colorectal cancer (CRC)have a poor prognosis. In patients with resectable disease, surgery offers a distinct survival benefit. This study will offer live donor liver transplantation (LDLT) to select patients with unresectable metastases that are 1) limited to the liver and 2) stable (non-progressing) on standard chemotherapy. Potential participants will be evaluated for liver transplant suitability and must also have a willing, healthy living donor come forward for evaluation. Those participants who undergo LDLT will be followed for survival, disease-free survival and quality of life for 5 years and compared to a "control group" of participants who drop out of study prior to transplantation due to reasons other than cancer progression.
The purpose of this study is to collect the data on the safety and potential effectiveness of intra-tumor injection of MG7-CART cells under ultrasound guidance in patients with liver metastases expressing MG7 positively.
To evaluate the current medical practice and its influence on health-related quality of life, in patients who are treated with injectable bone antiresorptive drugs (biphosphonates or denosumab) for at least one year.
The aim of this study is to characterize the genetic and cellular immunological parameters of metastatic digestive cancer patients having short and long responses to chemotherapy.
The registry aims to collect patient information such as patient demographics, co-morbidities, clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic data, as well as information on adverse events and HRQOL outcomes specific for patients with metastatic spine tumor(s).
The objective of the PREDOMOS study is to evaluate the impact of establishing a Program of geriatric and Social intervention associated techniques of Domotic and Remote assistance (PS-DR) on the improvement of quality of life of elderly patients, isolated or at risk of isolation, treated for locally advanced or metastatic cancer.
The emergence of oral delivery in cancer therapeutics is expected to result in an increased need for better coordination between all treatment stakeholders, mainly to ensure adequate treatment delivery to the patient. There is significant interest in the nurse navigation program's potential to improve transitions of care by improving communication between treatment stakeholders and by providing personalized organizational assistance to patients. The use of health information technology is another strategy aimed at improving cancer care coordination that can be combined with the NN program to improve remote patient follow-up. However, the potential of these two strategies combined to improve oral treatment delivery is limited by a lack of rigorous evidence of actual impact. The investigators are conducting a large scale randomized controlled trial designed to assess the impact of a navigation program denoted CAPRI that is based on two Nurse Navigators and a web portal ensuring coordination between community and hospital as well as between patients and navigators, versus routine delivery of oral anticancer therapy. The primary research aim is to assess the impact of the program on treatment delivery for patients with metastatic cancer, as measured by Relative Dose Intensity. The trial involves a number of other outcomes, including toxic side effects, patient quality of life and patient experience . An economic evaluation adopting a societal perspective will be conducted, in order to estimate those health care resources' used. A parallel process evaluation will be conducted to describe implementation of the intervention
