Filter by:Many patients with cancer have insufficient vitamin D levels, and low vitamin D levels are associated with increased 'all-cause mortality' and especially mortality due to cancer. Vitamin D has anti-cancer effects, including anti-proliferation, anti-angiogenesis, and anti-inflammation. Besides, low vitamin D levels are associated with higher opioid dose usage, fatigue, and impaired quality of life in palliative cancer patients. Therefore, patients with low vitamin D levels needs instant vitamin D supplement with "stoss therapy" which is single high dose vitamin D with maintenance dose by enteral route. The stoss therapy has been applied in many fields, including neonatal, diabetes, hemodialysis, heart failure, osteoporosis. In critically ill patients, such as surgical, medical, burn intensive unit admission patients, high dose vitamin D supplement was associated lower mortality amount the vitamin D deficiency patients. This study aims for evaluating the effects of enteral high dose vitamin D supplement on advanced cancer patients with pain, serum concentration changes of vitamin D, quality of life, symptom burden, and analyze its correlation with inflammation, immune and nutritional markers.
Immunotherapies have substantially improved the prognosis of patients with haematological malignancies. While clinical trial data suggest durable complete response rates, markers associated with non-response to treatment are still poorly described. The identification of predictive markers using demographic, physiologic, biologic, immunologic data as well as patients' treatment history, might enable the optimization of therapeutic sequences and the reduction of treatment toxicity. This study aim to assess markers of toxicity and response following an immunotherapy in patients with a haematological malignancy using real life data. It will allow the development of clinical and therapeutic benchmarks to guide medical decisions in relation to the therapeutic strategies to be implemented for patients benefiting from real-life conditions, in addition to the results obtained in randomized studies.
Advantages of laparoscopic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) compared to extracorporeal anastomosis (EA) are widely studied. Nowadays we can conclude, with a high level of scientific evidence, that there are a number of short-term clinical advantages of laparoscopic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis (IA). However, there is currently no randomized studies describing long-term clinical and oncological outcomes.
The aim of this study is to assess the safety, side effects and effectiveness of EP0031 in patients with advanced RET-altered malignancies
PET / CT examination using [18F] FAPI-74 is performed on patients diagnosed with malignant tumor, and the pathological condition is determined by comparing with FDG-PET/CT examination of conventional diagnostic imaging.
This is a phase I, multicenter, open-label dose escalation and expansion study to evaluate genakumab alone and in combination with tislelizumab in adult patients with advanced solid malignancies.
Comparing percutaneous needle fasciotomy +/- corticosteroid injection for Dupuytren's contracture affecting metacarpophalangeal joints. A clinician-initiated, multicenter, randomized controlled trial.
Reconstruction of orbital defects resulting after trauma; tumor resection; maxillary cyst; craniofacial anomalies and sequestrated bone…. etc., has been a challenging issue over the years and this owing to the complicated anatomy of orbit. Inaccurate orbital reconstruction may lead to devastating cosmetic and functional complications. Titanium mesh for orbital reconstruction has now become "probably" the most popular material for orbital wall reconstruction worldwide. Innovation of CAD-CAM technology and its application in maxillofacial surgery will markedly improve the surgical outcome. This study will assess the accuracy of orbital reconstruction using CAD-CAM technology and to compare two different modalities for orbital reconstruction based on this technology.
This is a dose-escalation and dose-expansion Phase 1/2a trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DB-1305/BNT325 in subjects with advanced solid tumors.
This phase III trial compares the addition of stereotactic radiosurgery before or after surgery in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Stereotactic radiosurgery is a type of radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation only to the small areas of cancer in the brain and avoids the surrounding normal brain tissue. Surgery and radiation may stop the tumor from growing for a few months or longer and may reduce symptoms of brain metastases.
