Filter by:FOCUS is a dyadic, psychoeducational intervention developed in the USA, shown to improve the wellbeing and quality of life (QoL) of patients with advanced cancer and their primary family carers. The intervention consists of five core components underpinning the FOCUS acronym: (F) supporting Family involvement, (O) supporting Outlook and meaning, (C) increasing Coping effectiveness, (U) reducing Uncertainty, and (S) Symptom management. Originally a nurse-delivered in-person intervention, FOCUS has been translated into a self-administered web-based intervention as part of an European study. The overall aim of this project is to determine the effectiveness and sustainability of a digital health intervention (FOCUSau) aimed at improving the wellbeing and self-efficacy of patients with advanced cancer and their primary support person/carer. A primary support person/carer is an unpaid individual identified by the person with advanced cancer (not necessarily a partner or family member) who is providing them with physical, social or emotional support. Hereafter referred to as a "carer". The term "dyad" refers to the patient and primary support person/carer. The project objectives are: 1. adapt FOCUS to the Australian context and develop FOCUSau; 2. examine the effectiveness of FOCUSau in improving the wellbeing (primary outcomes: QoL and self-efficacy) of patients with advanced cancer and their primary family carer; 3. compare the type and costs of health service use by participants in the intervention and control group; and 4. assess the acceptability, feasibility and scalability of FOCUSau in order to inform sustainable implementation of the intervention within the Australian health care system. A pragmatic phase III hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial with an integrated research design that includes digital health evaluation will be used in patients with advanced cancer and their primary support person/carer. Data will be collected three times from patient-carer dyads: 1. at baseline (T0) after which the dyad will immediately be randomised to one of the study arms, 2. first follow-up at 12 weeks after baseline (T1) and, 3. second follow-up at 24 weeks after baseline (T2).
The goal of this study is to examine the safety and treatment effects of sirolimus for targeting social communication deficits in people with genetic disorders associated with PTEN germline mutations, which are often referred to as PTEN Harmartoma Tumor Syndrome (PHTS). The mechanism of sirolimus in the body has shown promise for helping to improve social communication skills in case reports of people with PHTS. Everolimus, a closely related compound, also showed benefits in social communication skills in a previous pilot trial in people with PHTS. This is a 6 month double-blind trial followed by at 6 month open label extension trial.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of CVL218 in combination with Toripalimab injection/Sintilimab injection (Darbersol, Sintilimab) in the treatment of advanced solid tumors. It focuses on assessing the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of a three-drug combination regimen comprising albumin-bound paclitaxel injection (Kealil), paclitaxel injection (Taxol), and Fuquinitinib capsule (Aiutec, Fruquintinib).
This is a first-in-human, multicenter, Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of KGX101, a tumor-activated interleukin 12 prodrug, as monotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
Robotic right hemicolectomy with intra-corporeal anastomosis may have better short-term recovery outcomes and decreased incidence of incisional hernia when compared to the laparoscopic actual standard of care, for similar safety outcomes.
Small-vessel hepatic tumor is a new tumor entity of vascular origin, described in 2016 by Gill et al, in a series of 17 patients. This rare lesion is difficult to diagnose on imaging because it shares a common radiological semiology with several other differential diagnoses ranging from benign hepatic angioma to more aggressive lesions such as angiosarcoma.
The aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of GVH prophylaxis reinforced by low-dose Thymoglobulin administered at the end of aplasia after haploidentical allogeneic transplantation. Patients will receive a single infusion of Thymoglobulin at a dose of 1 mg/kg between 48h and 72h after emergence from aplasia, and will be followed for 12 months.
This study is a single-center, open, dose-escalation Phase I clinical study. It is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy and immunogenicity of treating NV-001, a king of hybrid-membrane-based tumor vaccine in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Patients with graft failure or delayed engraftment may benefit from a hematopoietic stem cell boost or an additional hematopoietic stem cell transplantation procedure. In such settings standard immune suppression strategies are avoided due to their myelosuppressive nature. Therefore those patients are at increased risk of graft versus host disease, and the infusion of a CD34 selected graft would reduce such a risk. The infusion of CD34 selected graft using CliniMACS plus is currently FDA FDA-approved indication for acute myeloid leukemia. However, the use of the Prodigy would streamline the processing, in terms of hands-off procedure, allowing to provision of this product to the patients without strains on the cell therapy lab team. This procedure has been demonstrated safe and effective in several single-center studies and is currently in advanced phase investigation in several studies for malignant and non-malignant conditions.
This is an open-label, Phase Ⅰ study of QL1706H in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study will evaluate the pharmacokenetics, safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of QL1706H.
