Filter by:Aim: to observe the graft versus tumor effect of Pegylated Interferonα-2b in patients with hematological malignancies relapsed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) Patients: patients relapsed after alloHSCT, men and women aged 14-60 years, without vital organ dysfunction or ongoing graft-verus-host disease (GVHD). Number of subjects: 50, Single center, one group, prospective. Drug: pegylated interferon alpha-2b (Peg Intron®; Schering-Plough) 1~1.5ug/kg qw, until occurrence of grade II or higher grade of acute GVHD, or no response to treatment after 8 doses of treatments.
This research study is evaluating an immune modulatory agent as a possible treatment for patients with Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) with significant disease involving the larynx, trachea, and/or lungs. The investigators will be using Pembrolizumab as the treating agent.
Several studies have shown that patients with acute leukemia have many symptoms during disease These symptoms decrease the quality of life and may even appear or worsen other symptoms such as depression Several studies point to the involvement of supportive care and palliative care is delayed in these patients The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact on the quality of life of an early and standardized involvement of a support / palliative care team for patients with acute leukemia in first relapse compared to a control group .
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with rituximab-ifosfamide-carboplatin-etoposide (R-ICE) and to see how well they work in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) and that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and lenalidomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving lenalidomide with R-ICE may be a better treatment for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of gemcitabine hydrochloride and berzosertib when given together with carboplatin in treating patients with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back (recurrent) and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride, 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. Berzosertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving berzosertib with chemotherapy (carboplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride) may work better in treating patients with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer compared to chemotherapy alone.
The goal of this study is to test MUSTCOOL, a home-based self-monitoring and self-management ulcer prevention intervention for patients with newly healed chronic venous leg and diabetic foot ulcers. Almost 90% of ulcers recur within 3 months of healing. During the six-month randomized clinic trial, skin temperature will be monitored daily, a maintenance dose of cooling gel pack or placebo will be applied three times weekly to the affected skin, and a bolus dose of cooling will be applied for 5 consecutive days if skin temperature becomes elevated. Outcomes on the incidence of leg ulcer recurrence, pain, physical activity and quality of life will be measured.
B-acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common childhood malignancy. Despite enhancement of childhood B-ALL outcome, relapses remain difficult to treat. Several studies in adult acute myeloid leukaemia have shown that proliferation of immunosuppressive cells -particularly T regulatory (Treg) cells and deficient natural killer (NK) cells- was associated with poor response to chemotherapy. However, few studies have been done on childhood ALL and none on relapse of B-ALL. Moreover, a newly described immunosuppressive B cells subset (Breg cells) seems to have a role in oncogenesis in mice model, but its significance has never been evaluated in human cancers. The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate the immune status of children newly diagnosed with first relapse of B-cell ALL, and to compare results with those of children treated for B-ALL in complete remission. Classic lymphocytic phenotype, proportions of immunosuppressive cells (Treg cells, deficient NK cells, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 and/or Programmed T cell death 1) and thymopoiesis will be evaluated. The investigators assume that increase of immunosuppressive cells proportions could be associated with B-ALL relapse.
Obesity and metabolic syndrome are prevalent among prostate cancer patients. Having an elevated insulin level in the blood is associated with a shorter median time to cancer progression and median overall survival in patients with an elevated PSA after prior treatment. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with drugs like bicalutamide is frequently used in this patient population,with no proven benefit, which may increase mortality and morbidity.This study evaluates how metformin in combination with bicalutamide affects prostate cancer.
The aim of this study is to identify the effect of adjunctive metformin on recurrence of non-DM Stage II High-risk/ III colorectal cancer. This study is open-label randomized controlled study. The primary endpoint is to compare the 3-year disease free survival between metformin group and non-metformin group. The secondary endpoint is to compare the 5-year overall survival and disease specific survival between two group, to identify the safety of metformin, and to compare the recurrence rate of polyps after polypectomy between two groups.
A wealth of research has demonstrated that they way in which the investigators recall our personal, autobiographical memories is influential in the course of depression. Biases in the recall of autobiographical memory occur in the midst of a depressive episode, and are shown to prolong symptoms, however these biases also remain when depression remits, and may predispose the individual towards relapse. A novel cognitive intervention, MemFlex, aims to train individuals to be flexible in their retrieval of autobiographical memories, and thereby reduce depressive relapse. Changes in memory bias may also have an effect on intermediate processes that increase risk of depression, such as rumination, impaired problem solving, and cognitive avoidance. This feasibility trial compares the effects of MemFlex and Psychoeducation in their ability to reduce memory bias and intermediate cognitive risk factors, and thereby depressive relapse, in individuals remitted from Major Depressive Disorder. Clinical outcome and process measures will be assessed immediately following completion of the intervention, at 6 months post-intervention, and at 12 months post-intervention. If encouraging, the results of this pilot trial may provide a foundation for a later phase trial.
