Filter by:NIB101-01 study is an open-label, non-randomized Phase 1 study in participants with GM2 positive advanced solid tumor, who failed to available standard of cares to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NIB101.
Objective: This study was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of individualized nursing care based on the Professional Values Model for parents of pediatric oncology patients. Method: Simple randomization will be used to evaluate the intervention and control groups. The sample of the study will be the parents of children aged 1-18 years (Intervention group: 35 parents, Control group: 35 parents) diagnosed with cancer in the Akdeniz University Hospital Pediatrics, Hematology and Oncology clinic and hospitalized. Portrait Values Questionnaire and PedsQL Health Care Satisfaction Hematology/Oncology Module Parent Form will be used to collect data. A 12-week individualized nursing care based on the Professional Values Model will be applied to 35 parents in the intervention group. The effectiveness of the program will be evaluated after all post-test applications are completed.
The reirradiation of thoracic tumor is difficult. The possibility of surgery or re course radiotherapy is very small. In the NCCN guideline, only systemic treatment is recommended. However, the effective rate of systemic treatment is low. SBRT has the characteristics of high dose in tumor target area and low dose in surrounding normal tissues. In theory, SBRT is more conducive to the protection of normal tissues and can potentially be used in the salvage treatment of recurrent lesions after radiotherapy. Even so, SBRT is still controversial in the rescue treatment of recurrent lung cancer after radiotherapy, especially for "ultral-central" lesions close to mediastinal structures (such as bronchus, esophagus and large blood vessels), which have a high probability of fatal side effects. However, a few studies on the application of SBRT in the reirradiation for ultral-central lung cancer have shown acceptable safety and efficacy. Generally speaking, there are few studies on SBRT in the treatment of recurrent ultral-central tumor with limited data. The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the efficacy and toxicities of SBRT in the treatment of recurrent ultral-central tumors after radiotherapy.
The aim of the study is the early and non-invasive diagnosis of lung cancer in patients with pulmonary ground glass opacity. In particular, objective of the study is to evaluate the presence or absence of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) on the peripheral blood of patients with evidence of ground glass opacity(GGO) at CT scan and to evaluate the role that this can play in the diagnostic / therapeutic process. The ctDNA evaluation will be performed at the first radiological finding and subsequently correlated with the malignancy of the lesion based on the radiological / histological criteria regularly used in international protocols. Secondary objective is the correlation, in patients with malignant GGO undergoing surgical treatment, of the ctDNA presence and tumor spread through the air spaces (STAS), and its correlation with local relapses.
Background: Tumors that have spread to the lining of the abdomen from other cancers, such as cancer of the appendix, colon, or ovary, are called peritoneal carcinomatosis. In most cases, outcomes are poor. Researchers want to test a new treatment. Objective: To learn if the combination of oral nilotinib plus paclitaxel given by IV and directly into the abdomen can reduce tumors enough for people to have surgery. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with peritoneal carcinomatosis that is too widespread for surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical history Blood and urine tests Electrocardiogram Laparoscopy. They will get general anesthesia. Small cuts will be made in their abdomen. Tissue and fluid samples will be taken. Surveys about their health CT scans of their torso Participants will have up to 4 more laparoscopies. During the first procedure, a port will be placed under the skin of their abdomen (an IP port). It will be attached to a catheter that is placed in their abdomen. Participants will get treatment in 3-week cycles, for 3 or 6 cycles. They will take nilotinib by mouth twice daily. They will get paclitaxel by IP port (once per cycle) and by IV (twice per cycle). After cycles 3 and 6, they will have a laparoscopy and CT scans. Then they may take nilotinib and get IV paclitaxel for up to 1 year. At study visits, participants will repeat some screening tests. About 6 weeks after treatment ends and then every 3 months for 3 years, participants will have follow-up visits at NIH or with their local doctor.
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of GH21 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in patients with advanced solid tumors.
The drug investigated in the study is an antibody, GEN1047. Since this is the first study of GEN1047 in humans, the main purpose is to evaluate safety. Besides safety, the study will determine the recommended GEN1047 dose to be tested in a larger group of participants and assess preliminary clinical activity of GEN1047. GEN1047 will be studied in a broad group of cancer participants, having different kinds of solid tumors. All participants will get GEN1047. The study consists of two parts: Part 1 tests increasing doses of GEN1047 ("escalation"), followed by Part 2 ("expansion") which tests the recommended GEN1047 dose from Part 1.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of computer aided diagnostic tool for retroperitoneal tumor using machine learning and deep learning techniques on computed tomography images in children.
This clinical trial studies the side effects of stereotactic radiosurgery and how well it works with or without vertebroplasty, separation surgery, or immunotherapy in patients with cancer that is radiation resistant and has spread to the spine (spinal metastases). Spinal metastases are rapidly progressive, have poor prognosis, are extremely difficult to treat, and can effect patient quality of life and overall health. Immunotherapy is a type of standard of care therapy to boost or restore the ability of the immune system to fight cancer. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. A vertebroplasty is a procedure used to repair a bone in the spine that has a break caused by cancer, osteoporosis, or trauma. The purpose of this trial is to test different combinations of immunotherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and surgery to improve overall survival and quality of life in patients with spinal metastases.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of a study drug called fedratinib in participants with myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPNs) and chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL).
