Filter by:This phase I trial is to find out the possible side effects of pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before and during surgery in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer that remains despite treatment (persistent) or has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays or protons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab and radiation therapy before and during surgery may kill more tumor cells.
This phase II trial investigates the effect of irinotecan liposome and bevacizumab in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that shows less response to platinum therapy (platinum resistant), has come back (recurrent), or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Irinotecan liposome may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving irinotecan liposome and bevacizumab may kill more cancer cells.
This phase I/II trial studies the effect of DS-1594b with or without azacitidine, venetoclax, or mini-HCVD in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or not responded to treatment (refractory). Chemotherapy drugs, such as azacitidine, venetoclax, and mini-HCVD, 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. DS-1594b may inhibit specific protein bindings that cause blood cancer. Giving DS-1594b, azacitidine, and venetoclax, or mini-HCVD may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This phase I trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of magrolimab in combination with dinutuximab in treating patients with neuroblastoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or relapsed osteosarcoma. Magrolimab and dinutuximab are monoclonal antibodies that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The combination of magrolimab and dinutuximab may shrink or stabilize relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma or relapsed osteosarcoma. In addition, this trial may help researchers find out if it is safe to give magrolimab and dinutuximab after surgery to remove tumors from the lungs.
According to clinical guidelines, endoscopic surgery (mono- or bipolar TURBT, laser resection, en bloc resection) is a standard treatment option for patients with primary non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) (excluding carcinoma in-situ). However, more than half of patients will experience local recurrence after surgery. It is believed that one of the main causes for this local recurrence is the reimplantation of tumor cells during endoscopic surgery. It is crucial to limit contact between the resected tumor and the bladder wall during the operation and to extract the specimen as quickly as possible. In the case of a small tumor, the surgeon can immediately remove it using an endoscopic instrument. There are a number of methods available for removing large tumors, but it is not yet clear which one is most optimal. Therefore, comparing the oncological results from evacuating bladder tumors using various methods is very timely. Based on the previously mentioned studies, the investigators assume that the rate of bladder cancer relapse out site of the resection area would be lower in the morcellation group compared with piecemeal resection of the tumor. In order to prove this, the investigators plan to conduct a randomized study comparing the relapse rate in these two groups.
An open label multi center study to assess the safety and efficacy of BST-236 as single agent in adult patients unfit for standard therapy with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or higher-risk (HR) Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) who fail to respond or relapsed following first line therapy. Approximately 20 adult patients with relapsed and/or refractory AML and approximately 20 adult patients with relapsed and/or refractory HR MDS, will be enrolled into the study. Patients will be treated with 1-2 induction courses and 2-4 maintenance courses. All patients will be followed for 1 year in the study and additional 1 year post study follow-up.
Half of the women have a once-in-a-lifetime episode of cystitis. Recurrence occurs in about 20% to 30% of patients, and half of these patients will have more than 4 episodes per year, defining recurrent cystitis. The clinical assessment sometimes brings to light favourable factors; variables in pre- or post-menopause; but in the majority of cases, no explanatory cause can solve the problem and some authors refer to resignation as a classic reaction to this problem. several countries have already opted for alternative treatments (Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, phytotherapy, diuresis treatment), especially since the pressure of antibiotic selection is at the root of the dramatic spread of bacterial resistances. There is a growing interest in the potential of complementary medicine to assist in this care. Products based on cranberries, for example, have been particularly studied and a 2012 Cochrane review concluded that there is a benefit with an estimated risk reduction of between 10 and 20%. Another "alternative" approach is the use of Chinese medicinal herbs. These herbs have been used for more than 2000 years. The implementation of phyto-aromatherapy treatment implies a global management of patients with recurrent cystitis. Initially, it involves a curative phase as soon as the first symptoms of the attack appear, thanks to a mixture of antibacterial essential oils. In a second phase, it integrates a preventive phase over several months thanks to an association of medicinal plants whose effects in this field have been proven in vitro and in vivo, allowing to rebalance a "terrain" associating anxiety, hypersensitivity to pain, a terrain willingly associated with the irritable bowel syndrome in these patients. While having few side effects, the plants will act, in the long term, at different levels: directly on the cause of the disease thanks to their antiseptic, antiadhesive and diuretic activities, but also by reducing the symptoms thanks to their anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antispasmodic and anxiolytic activities. Investigators hypothesize that patients with recurrent cystitis can be improved by a two-phase, multi-plant, phyto-aromatherapy treatment combining several plants: the treatment of attacks, by aromatherapy, and a prophylactic treatment, by phytotherapy. In the absence of any such studies published in the literature, investigators propose a non-randomised prospective monocentric interventional pilot study on 15 patients with proof of concept and feasibility.
A Phase 2 study investigating the addition of cRIT 131I-omburtamab to irinotecan, temozolomide, and bevacizumab for patients with recurrent medulloblastoma. A feasibility cohort is included to assess the feasibility of incorporating cRIT 131I-omburtamab for patients with recurrent ependymoma. Direct intraventricular delivery of radiolabeled tumor-specific antibodies may aid in both the detection and treatment of recurrent disease for these highly specific pediatric patients with recurrent tumors.
According to the standard treatment guidelines established until recently, in the case of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence without systemic metastasis, salvage mastectomy or lumpectomy can be performed when either partial or whole breast radiation therapy is possible. On the other hand, there are currently no standard treatment guidelines for axillary treatment, and the evidence for this is limited. Axillary lymph node metastasis was reported to occur in about 26% of breast cancer patients who had negative sentinel lymph nodes from previous surgery for primary breast cancer and only local recurrence occurred. It is still important in the decision of treatment or adjuvant radiation therapy. However, it is known that most of the patients with ipsilateral breast recurrence do not have axillary lymph node metastasis. Therefore, performing axillary axillary surgery in all of these patients does not help the patient's survival in many cases, but rather can lead to complications such as lymphedema and seroma and postoperative wound infection. A question about the implementation of axillary lymph node resection has been raised and for this reason, it is necessary to study whether surveillance lymph node biopsy is still effective in patients with recurrence in the ipsilateral breast. Most of the studies on ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence without systemic metastasis reported to date are case reports or small retrospective studies. In addition, the combined meta-analysis also has limitations in that the study design is not uniform, and there are many cases in which primary breast cancer surgery performed total mastectomy or axillary lymph node dissection. This study is a multicenter prospective study designed to validate the clinical effectiveness of repeat-SLNB conducted in patients with ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence among patients who previously underwent breast conservation and sentinel lymph node biopsy for unilateral primary breast cancer.
This study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled study. The aim of this study is to compare survival rates and to observe quality of life and nutritional status according to follow-up period in patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for stage 2 or 3 gastric cancer.
