Filter by:This phase II trial evaluates Fluorine-18 radiohybrid prostate-specific membrane antigen (18F- rhPSMA)-7.3 positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scans with and without furosemide for the reduction of bladder activity in patients with prostate cancer that has come back (recurrent) based on elevated levels of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in the blood (biochemical) after prostate surgery (prostatectomy). Furosemide is a diuretic substance that increases the urine flow into the bladder, thereby decreasing the level of radioactivity within the bladder, which may help to see any abnormal areas that could be masked by the radioactivity within the bladder. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, rhPSMA ligand. CT utilizes x-rays that traverse body from the outside. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. Adding furosemide to 18F-rhPSMA 7.3 PET/CT scans may help to better detect and treat patients with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer.
One-year recurrence rate of acute pancreatitis at about 20%. 36% of the patients with recurrent acute pancreatitis will develop into chronic pancreatitis. In addition to negative impact on patient's quality of life, chronic pancreatitis is also associated with the occurrence of pancreatic cancer. The etiology of recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) can be divided into mechanical obstructive factors (e.g. cholelithiasis, cholestasis), metabolic abnormality and toxic substance factors (e.g. hyperlipidemia and alcoholism), and other or idiopathic factors. At present, the diagnosis and treatment of RAP remains highly challenging. Early identification and intervention on risk factors of recurrence will be effective in reducing incidence and improving prognosis. Contrast-enhanced Computed Tomography (CT) can not only provide more imaging information and further assess the severity of acute pancreatitis, but also aid in the differentiation of other diseases associated with acute abdominal pain. In addition, radiomics based on raw radiographic data has become a research hotspot in recent years. The purpose of this study is to establish and validate a deep learning model based on high concentration iopromide-enhanced abdominal CT images which is designed to predict the recurrence of pancreatitis in patients with first episode of pancreatitis within the 1-year follow-up period.
ARES is a multicenter, single-arm, phase 2 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ADT in combination with apalutamide as an adjuvant regimen for patients with high risk of recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
A prospective study of partial breast re-irradiation in patients with local recurrence of breast cancer
This is a Phase 1 study of central nervous system (CNS) locoregional adoptive therapy with SC-CAR4BRAIN, an autologous CD4+ and CD8+ T cells lentivirally transduced to express to express combinations of B7-H3, EGFR806, HER2, and IL13-zetakine chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). CAR T cells are delivered via an indwelling catheter into the ventricular system in children and young adults with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), diffuse midline glioma (DMG), and recurrent or refractory CNS tumors. A child or young adult meeting all eligibility criteria, including having a CNS catheter placed into their ventricular system, and meeting none of the exclusion criteria will have their T cells collected. The T cells will then be bioengineered into a second-generation CAR T cell that target B7H3, EGFR806, HER2, and IL13-zetakine on tumor cells. Patients will be assigned to 1 of 2 treatment Arms based on the type of their tumor: - Arm A is for patients with DIPG (meaning primary disease localized to the pons, metastatic disease is allowed) anytime after standard radiation OR after progression. - Arm B is for patients with non-pontine DMG (meaning DMG in other parts of the brain such as the thalamus or spine) anytime after standard radiation OR after progression. This Arm also includes other recurrent/refractory CNS tumors.
The goal of this prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab in combination with axitinib for postoperative adjuvant therapy for non-clear renal cell carcinoma with high-risk recurrence factors.
A total of 244 breast cancer survivors will be invited to participate in the randomized controlled trial. Breast cancer survivors who meet the inclusion criteria and provide digital informed consent will be included. Participants will be stratified and randomized by the severity of baseline fear of cancer recurrence and time since diagnosis. In the control arm, women will be treated as usual. In the intervention arm, women will be offered a six-weekly, 60 min, online mindfulness and acceptance intervention. An online questionnaire will be used to collect data at four time points: before the first group session, immediately after the intervention, three months, and six months post-intervention. Phone interviews exploring participants' experiences will be held immediately after the intervention with women of the intervention group.
Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging is the most widely used examination for detecting the presence of brain metastasis. Functional sequences such as perfusion weighted imaging makes it possible to differentiate tumor recurrence from cerebral radionecrosis. However, this imaging technique may exhibit limitations, especially for brain lesions consisting of a mixture of necrotic tissue and tumor progression or depending on the location of the lesion in the brain. The use of 18F-DOPA PET is another option available to oncologists. Many studies on gliomas showed the superiority of this imaging technique over contrast-enhanced MRI. However, this imaging solution has been very poorly studied for brain metastases. The new PET technology equiped with silicon detectors makes it possible to obtain greater sensitivities than those of previous generations. It also make possible to obtain images in very short acquisition times. After injection, the hardware allows to obtain the perfusion kinetics of the lesion thanks to a very short temporal sampling (i.e. three seconds). The main objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the association between early activity measurements (< 4 minutes post-injection) of 18F-FDOPA in PET and the differential diagnosis between radionecrosis and recurrence of cerebral metastases treated by radiotherapy.
This phase II trial tests the safety and best dose of SNDX-5613 (revumenib) in combination with chemotherapy, and evaluates whether this treatment improves the outcome in infants and young children who have leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and is associated with a KMT2A (MLL) gene rearrangement (KMT2A-R). Leukemia is a cancer of the white blood cells, where too many underdeveloped (abnormal) white blood cells, called "blasts", are found in the bone marrow, which is the soft, spongy center of the bones that produces the three major blood cells: white blood cells to fight infection; red blood cells that carry oxygen; and platelets that help blood clot and stop bleeding. The blasts crowd out the normal blood cells in the bone marrow and spread to the blood. They can also spread to the brain, spinal cord, and/or other organs of the body. The leukemia cells of some children have a genetic change in which a gene (KMT2A) is broken and combined with other genes that typically do not interact with one another; this is called "rearranged". This genetic rearrangement alters how other genes are turned on or off in the cell, turning on genes that drive the development of leukemia. Patients with KMT2A rearrangement have higher risk for cancer coming back after treatment. Revumenib is an oral medicine that directly targets the changes that occur in a cell with a KMT2A rearrangement and has been shown to specifically kill these leukemia cells in preclinical laboratory settings and in animals. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine, prednisone, asparaginase, fludarabine and cytarabine 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. This trial is being done to find out if the combination of revumenib and chemotherapy would be safe and/or effective in treating infants and young children with relapsed or refractory KMT2A-R leukemia.
The rationale of this study is to determine if an association exists between WT1 expression and relapse occurrence in patients with acute myeloid leukemia submitted to allogeneic stem cell transplantation. In particular, we want to studied WT1 expression level on bone marrow samples of day +60 in terms of predicting power on relapse incidence so as to determine a cut-off value for identify high risk patients.
