Filter by:Limited data is available for end of life care in hematologic malignancies, moreover with thrombocytopenic patients. Thrombopenia is a frequent complication, specific of bone marrow involvement in those diseases or its treatments. Yet, a few studies was interested in, whereas platelet transfusion is the only treatment indicated. As it represent a scarce, limited resource, the ethical principles are in conflict in this setting and there's a lack of recommendation. The final decision is take by the clinician and his patient, but no study exist in representation of the two parts. We provide a qualitative study to understand what this decision is made of.
Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) in the colon using an over-the-scope clip (OTSC) as a closure mechanism is a recent technique that allows the endoscopic resection of colonic lesions that are poor candidates for conventional endoscopic resection techniques. The aim is to study the safety and efficacy of EFTR in colon.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well copanlisib works when given together with fulvestrant in treating patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced) and progressing after prior treatment. HER2 and ER are two types of proteins called receptors that can affect the growth of breast cancer cells. Additionally, investigators hope to learn from this study if tumor genetic information is important for predicting whether this type of breast cancer will respond to fulvestrant and copanlisib. Copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. Giving copanlisib and fulvestrant may work better in treating patients with ER+ and HER2- breast cancer compared to fulvestrant alone.
The COLT trial is an investigator-driven, multicenter, non-randomized, open-label, controlled, prospective, parallel trial, aimed at assessing the efficacy (in terms of overall survival: OS) of liver transplantation (LT) in liver-only CRC metastases, compared with a matched cohort of patients bearing the same tumor characteristics, collected during the same time period and included in a phase III Italian RCT on triplet chemotherapy+antiEGFR
Despite anti-thymocyte globulin has a mainstay role in preventing GvHD (and non-relapse mortality) in CB transplantation, it also induces delayed immune recovery, increased risk of cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus reactivation, post-transplant lymphoproliferative diseases, overall accounting for increased transplant-related mortality and/or increased relapse incidence. All these findings support the use of alternative approaches for in vivo T cell depletion in the setting of CB transplantation.
Patients with hematological malignancies are at increased risk of bleeding, especially during intensive chemotherapy. The aim of this study is to compare by thromboelastography changes during the intensive chemotherapy in patients with hematological malignancies.
Patients suffering from haematological disease present symptoms of discomfort and currently benefit from palliative care skills only for the management of their end-of-life. However, in medical oncology, more and more studies tend to demonstrate the benefit on the quality of life of an early collaboration between the two specialties. Investigator did the hypothesis that early integration of palliative care with conventional haematological care could decrease discomfort symptoms and add a real benefit on the patients' quality of life .
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety profile of ASP1951 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors; characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of ASP1951 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab; and determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ASP1951 and/or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. This study will also evaluate the anti-tumor effect of ASP1951 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab.
First-in-human, Phase I/II, Multicenter, Open-Label Study of EMB-01 in Patients with Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors
This phase II trial studies how well surgery and radiation therapy work in treating patients with prostate cancer that has come back or spread to other parts of the body. Radiation therapy uses high energy beams to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Surgical procedures, such as oligometastasectomy, may remove tumor cells that have spread to other parts of the body. Surgery and radiation therapy may work better in treating patients with prostate cancer that has come back or spread to other parts of the body.
