Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether stereotactic radiosurgery combination with Anlotinib is safe, effective in the treatment of limited brain metastases with Perilesional edema in non-small cell lung cancer.
This study will see whether collecting and analyzing needle biopsy samples from cancer liver metastases after a tumor ablation procedure will be able to identify cancer cells that are still alive. The results of these biopsies could help determine the next treatment for your cancer, but the biopsies could cause side effects.
Bone radioiodine (RAI) uptake without structural abnormality in thyroid cancer (TC) patients may be related to false positive or to microscopic foci of metastatic tissue. In such cases, outcome is reported to be excellent. Indeed, Robenshtok et al. reported a serie of patients with RAI-avid bone metastases of TC without structural abnormality on imaging studies who have more favorable long-term prognosis than those harbouring structurally visible bone metastases and do not undergo skeletal-related complications. The investigators report the case of Mrs D., who had been operated for a pathologic tumor stage 3: pT3(m) poorly differentiated TC at the age of 43. The first post-therapeutic whole body scan revealed 3 foci of bone uptake (right clavicle, L2, L3). The elevated level of thyroglobulin (157ng/mL) favoured the hypothesis of bone metastases despite the absence of any structural lesion on CT and MRI. She received 7 courses of radioiodine therapy. The right clavicle RAI uptake persisted, and subsequent CT disclosed an osteolytic lesion which was treated by radiofrequency and external beam radiation. Twenty-five years after the diagnosis, she has a persistent morphological disease with a 30x8mm progressive lesion on the right clavicle, for which surgery is planned. The aim of the present study is to describe the natural history and evolution of radioiodine avid bone metastases from thyroid cancer without structural abnormalities and to identify prognosis factors.
Luminal A breast cancer is a kind of breast cancer with low rate lymph node metastasis and good survival. But in clinical practice, Luminal A breast cancer can present with early, unexpected lymph node metastasis some time, indicates poor survival. Silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) plays a different role in breast cancer with different molecular typing. Previous study supports a role of SIRT1 protein as tumor suppressor in Luminal A breast cancer, in association with apoptosis-related proteins. The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition(EMT) process results in loss of cell-cell adhesion, increased cell mobility, and is crucial for enabling the metastasis of cancer cells. But no similar study in Luminal A breast cancer. Hence, this study will 1) investigate the expression pattern of SIRT1 in primary tumor and lymph node metastasis; 2) investigate the different expression pattern of SIRT1 in T2/T3 , lymph node negative tumor and T1, lymph node positive tumor; 3) investigate potential role of SIRT1 enzyme in regulating cell migration and invasion in Luminal A breast cancer cells.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and V938 shedding in participants with advanced/metastatic or recurrent malignancies who receive V938 in combination with pembrolizumab (MK-3475). The primary objective is to determine the safety and tolerability and to identify a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of V938 administered in combination with pembrolizumab.
A Phase 1 open label trial of intravenous administration of MVA-BN-Brachyury vaccine in patients with advanced cancer. Patients with metastatic or unresectable locally advanced malignant solid tumors will be enrolled and treated according to a 3+3 dose escalation scheme. Up to 3 dose levels will be explored. Patients will receive MVA-BN-Brachyury every three weeks, three administrations in total. Patients will be hospitalized after each vaccination, over 48 hours. Trial duration will be approximately 24 weeks per patient including 3 months after the last vaccination follow up (FU) period.
This research study involves studying a device as a possible treatment for metastatic melanoma in the brain. The purpose of this study is to obtain information on the safety and effectiveness of the study device, NovoTTF-200A, in melanoma participants with brain metastases when it is combined with Pembrolizumab. The name of the study device involved in this study is: -- NovoTTF-200A The name of the drug used in this study is: -- Pembrolizumab
A study that is blinded to the patient and the investigator where the combination of Arfolitixorin + 5-FU is compared to Calciumfolinate + 5-FU. The patients will be randomised and will receive the above described combination as IV bolus injections, peroperatively in conjuction with collection of the first tissue sample. A low dose (30 mg) and a high dose (120) mg of Arfolitixorin will be used in order to investigate the relation between dose of Arfolitixorin and TS-inhibition.
This research study is studying a combination of hormonal therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy as a possible treatment for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with a drug of your physician's choice. This may include leuprolide (Lupron), goserelin acetate (Zoladex), or degarelix (Firmagon). - Docetaxel - Nivolumab
The general goal of this study is to investigate the effect of treatment on serum concentrations of proteins known to impact angiogenesis or tumor growth and establishment in patients with peritoneal metastasis of various origin. Since the immune system is thought, by many, to have an impact on tumor growth and development, this study also seeks to determine the impact of abdominal surgery on postoperative immune function in PM patients, as judged by proteins known to influence immune function. This study will not only characterize the postoperative plasma but also to determine if the magnitude of any of the changes noted is associated with a worse or improved oncologic outcome. The principle purpose of this study is to gather perioperative serum/plasma samples from patients with PM from a variety of different primary tumors (ovarian, gastric, and colorectal) undergoing either CRS and HIPEC versus PIPAC.
