Filter by:An open-label, single dose, single arm, prospective, multicenter Phase 3 study to establish the diagnostic performance of 18F fluciclovine positron emission tomography (PET) in detecting recurrent brain metastases after radiation therapy
The SOFT study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of MR-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for infra-diaphragmatic soft tissue metastases.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of curative intended irreversible electroporation (IRE) in the treatment of liver tumors neighboring major vessels or bile ducts.
This study were designed to verify the better method of survival for metastatic ICC. Since the traditional method for metastatic ICC was GEMOX(recommended from NCCN guideline), our previous study found better results from Folfirinox over GEMOX. Our current study were conducted for further investigation to verify the better method for metastatic ICC.
To observe the quality of life (QOL) and to report on toxicity and outcome parameters after the (repeated) use of local ablative therapy (LAT) i.e. stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) for patients with multiple (4-10) brain metastases
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of GM1 for preventing cognitive impairment related to whole brain radiotherapy in breast cancer patients with brain metastases. And explore the clinical and molecular parameter for predicting severe cognitive impairment induced by WBRT and gaining benefit from GM1. Primary Endpoint: the change of Hopkins Verbal and Learning Test-Revised Delayed Recall,HVLT-R DR,before and after WBRT Secondary ENDPOINT: the change of Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive，ADAS-Cog before and after WBRT;severe cognitive impairment percentage and onset time; Design:204 patients will be randomly assigned to exp.group,102 cases,and 102 cases of control group.
Although the use of peripheral venous catheters (CVP) with brachial insertion with echo-guide (Midline) has increased significantly over the last 5-10 years, there are no sensitive data concerning complications in the literature during their use, particularly as regards incidence of thrombotic complication.The prospective observational study will enroll all the patients admitted to Home Health Hospitalization service, Geriatric Department and Intermediate Care service, to whom a Midline-type CVP will be placed for infusional therapy and who will give their consent to participate.
This phase II trial studies how well administering ruxolitinib before, during, and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation works in preventing graft versus host disease and improving transplant outcomes in patients with primary and secondary myelofibrosis. Donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is currently the only treatment with proven curative potential for myelofibrosis, however, myelofibrosis patients have a high risk for developing graft versus host disease post-transplant. Graft versus host disease is a condition where the transplanted cells from a donor can attack the body's normal cells. Ruxolitinib, a janus-associated kinase (JAK) inhibitor, is known to decrease inflammatory signals, which may reduce spleen size and decrease symptoms such as night sweats and weight loss. Administering ruxolitinib before, during, and after transplant may decrease the incidence and severity of graft versus host disease, increase survival, and improve quality of life in patients with primary and secondary myelofibrosis.
The spread of cancer to the spine is referred to as spine metastasis. Spine metastases are a common complication of cancer and are frequently associated with significant back pain. This study is being done to help improve treatment for back pain caused by spinal metastases by comparing the effectiveness of two standard treatments. These two treatments include radiation therapy (RT) alone versus radiation therapy combined with radiofrequency ablation, with or without vertebral augmentation (PVA/RFA). In addition to RT or RT with PVA/RFA, will be continued with current pain medications.
This phase II trial studies the outcomes of using a JAK inhibitor prior to reduced intensity haploidentical (Haplo) transplantation for the treatment of primary or secondary myelofibrosis (MF). Haplo transplant has been shown to be safe and effective in patients with leukemia and lymphoma who don't have an available sibling donor. The primary risk of using Haplo HCT in patients with MF is graft failure as the graft failure rate has been historically higher with Haplo HCT than with other donor sources and higher with MF patients due to bone marrow fibrosis than in patients with other hematologic malignancies. JAK inhibitors when used in patients with MF may decrease the size of the spleen and decrease inflammation in the bone marrow. Therefore using a JAK inhibitor prior to Haplo transplant has the potential to decrease graft failure in patients with MF. Haplo transplants for patients with MF have been done successfully at multiple institutions in patients not on a study and are currently being covered by Medicare.
