Filter by:Healthcare systems are evolving, giving increasing prominence to the patient-centered model, accompanied by objective and perceived outcomes. PREMs (Patient Reported Experience Measures) are used to assess how patients feel about their experience of care. PREMs enable patients to take an active role in their own care, and enable healthcare establishments to identify areas for improvement that can be incorporated into their quality processes. In oncology, the collection of patient-perceived quality regarding their care pathway would enable better coordination of their care. While a few initiatives have emerged in the field of PREMs, the development of a reliable questionnaire assessing patient perception of their care pathway in oncology remains a challenge.
Standard planning constraints for liver SBRT incorporate strict dose-volume limits for normal liver parenchyma to minimize the risk of radiation-induced liver disease. The presence of diurnal and fasting/fed variations in liver volume therefore carry substantial potential for introducing errors into estimates of dose-volume distribution within normal liver tissue, as well as affecting day-to-day setup fidelity and organ alignment for treatment. This prospective study will examine how diurnal and fast-fed variations in liver volume affect treatment planning for abdominal SBRT.
Research indicates that individuals diagnosed with lung or esophageal cancer who enter treatment with higher functional capacities, improved body composition, and better nutrition status tend to experience better outcomes and a higher quality of life. The primary objective of a prehabilitation health coaching program is to enhance the overall health and well-being of patients before they undergo major surgery.This personalized 8-week program encompasses elements such as nutrition, smoking cessation, sleep hygiene, and movement, equipping participants with the knowledge and tools needed to adopt healthier lifestyles.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the delivery of Reiki to integrative oncology patients and assess its potential for improving cancer-related symptoms in this population.
This is a single-armed, single-centre, non-blinded phase II trial to assess efficacy of induction chemo-immunotherapy for resectable node-positive squamous cell carcinoma of the penis
This study evaluates why some cancer patients but not others experience changes in heart function following treatment with chemotherapy.
This is a Phase I open label, dose-escalation study of intravenous (IV) infusion of ONC-841 as a single agent in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. The study will evaluate seven dose levels of ONC-841 starting from 0.03 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg.
Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Preliminary Efficacy of ICP-248 in Mature B-cell Malignancies
This research is being done to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a drug currently known as Azenosertib (ZN-C3) in combination with the drugs carboplatin and pembrolizumab in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Azenosertib (a type of WEE1 inhibitor) - Carboplatin (a type of platinum compound) - Pembrolizumab (a type of monoclonal antibody)
CAR-T cells (Chimeric Antigen Receptor) are a new immunotherapy, based on the genetic modification of autologous T lymphocytes. CAR-T cell therapy is not devoid of complications. Among the most frequent complications are the risk of infection, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity. Nevertheless, some authors have reported serious acute cardiac events in a limited number of patients, often contemporaneous with CRS or sepsis, questioning the imputability of CAR-T cells in this heart disease. This study aims to estimate the incidence of a possible early cardiotoxicity associated with CAR-T cells. The main endpoint will be the change in cardiac function (LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction) assessed by ultrasound between the pre CAR-T assessment and the early post CAR-T ultrasound (D3-D5).
