Filter by:This randomized phase II trial studies the side effects of paclitaxel and bevacizumab with or without emactuzumab and how well they work in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back after treatment with platinum chemotherapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as emactuzumab, block tumor growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bevacizumab may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Giving emactuzumab with paclitaxel and bevacizumab may work better in treating ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy of single immediate intravesical chemotherapy instillation in the prevention of bladder recurrence after nephroureterectomy for primary upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients.
Study RGX-104-001 is a Phase 1, first-in-human, dose escalation and expansion study of RGX-104, an oral small molecule targeting the liver X receptor (LXR), as a single agent and in combination with nivolumab, ipilimumab, docetaxel, or pembrolizumab plus carboplatin/pemetrexed.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of the bleselumab regimen (basiliximab induction, tacrolimus, steroids and bleselumab) compared with the Standard of Care (SOC) regimen (basiliximab induction, tacrolimus, steroids and mycophenolate mofetil [MMF]) in the prevention of recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (rFSGS) defined as nephrotic range proteinuria with protein-creatinine ratio (≥ 3.0 g/g) through 3 months post-transplant. Death, graft loss or lost to follow-up were imputed as rFSGS.
This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab and bevacizumab work in treating patients with cervical cancer that has come back, remains despite treatment, or has spread to other places in the body. Monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab and bevacizumab, may shrink tumor cell and interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
Although mesh fixation has been associated to an increased incidence of nerve injury and involves increased operative costs, many surgeons feel that fixation is necessary to reduce the risk of hernia recurrence. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of laparoscopic herniorrhaphies performed with and without mesh fixation at our institution.
Single-center, prospective, diagnostic trial in radically treated patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer. Patients with radically treated prostate cancer with biochemical relapse and negativity of all traditional morphological and functional imaging (transrectal ultrasound, bone scan, 18F-FMC PET/CT, CT/MRI) or doubtful imaging of 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18] (18F)-fluoromethylcholine (FMC) PET/CT will receive a Gallio-68 (68Ga)- Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/Computed Tomography (CT) scan.
Treatment of Head and Neck Squamous cell carcinoma often combines chemoradiotherapy when organ has to be preserved or when surgery is not indicated. The loco-regional failure is about 30%. Then salvage surgery is the only chance for patients to survive but the overall survival rate is only 29% at 24 months. This prognostic is bad because of poor local control which is non-optimized by a complementary radiotherapy and negative exeresis margins. Currently, there is no intraoperative technique to better visualize the tumor limits in real time. With fluorescence techniques, an accurate mapping of tumor extension can be considered. Recently, Atallah et al. (2015) demonstrated the use of fluorescence during a head and neck surgery in mice, as a tool allowing for better surgical margins. Digonnet et al (2015) found a tumor fragment after an injection of indocyanine green (ICG) intravenously in salvage surgery for patient with head and neck cancer. The ability of ICG to detect a surgical margin positive intraoperatively has never be evaluated in irradiated area. The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the interest of fluorescence in salvage surgery for recurrence of head and neck cancer in irradiated area.
The investigators are imaging patients with prostate cancer using a new PET imaging agent (Ga-68-PSMA-11) in order to evaluate it's ability to detection prostate cancer in patients with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy and radiation therapy.
The inclusion criteria was patients who aged 18 or older with ankylosing spondylitis, fulfilled the 1984 modified New York criteria for AS. Inclusion criteria enriched the AS patients with clinical remission, including the following definition: 1. Administration of etanercept 50 mg for 6-week period at least; 2. Acquisition of Assessment of SpondyloArthritis International Society criteria 20(ASAS20) response at the end of the treatment. We excluded patients who have developed to complete spinal fusion. We also excluded patients with kidney disease induced by other conditions; pregnancy; suckle; accompany other chronic diseases; various infections in acute stage; and other infectious diseases. At the end of the trial, patients who fulfilled the inclusions would stop etanercept treatment. Cotherapy with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs could be continued if maintained at a stable dose;Patients were followed up from the time of etanercept withdrawal per 6 weeks for 3 years by telephone. If symptoms suggestive of relapse or other problems occurred, patients were invited to come back to the center. Relapse after etanercept withdrawal was defined as an increase Bath Spondylitis Disease Activity Index(BASDAI)15 score goes back to 80 percentages of it at the beginning of the trial16. The following data were collected: demographic and disease characteristics, therapeutic modification, clinical values (BASFI, Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Global Score (BAS-G)), Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS)1718) and biologic values at baseline of the trial and the time of relapse. Adverse events and other safety measures were also collected.
