Filter by:The aim of this study is to gain a better understanding of the phenomenon of adherent perinephric fat (APF), which occurs in some patients undergoing partial nephrectomy (PN). This phenomenon, so-called "toxic fat", is a commonly recognized problem among urologists, but its significance has not yet been fully understood. The study aims to identify new clinical risk factors for APF occurrence and evaluate its impact on functional, perioperative, and oncological treatment outcomes. The study will be conducted on patients who are qualified for PN surgery. Prior to the surgical procedure, venous blood will be collected, which will be used for various measurements, such as blood morphology, kidney parameters, inflammation markers, liver function tests, glucose, and lipid profile. In addition, medical data will be collected concerning the patient's overall health, observed changes in the kidney, perioperative course, hospitalization, and histopathological characteristics of the tumor. After treatment, patients will be followed up for up to 60 months. The knowledge gained from this study can significantly assist in making decisions about surgical treatment and thus contribute to improving the treatment outcomes of patients with kidney tumors.
This study examines the feasibility and acceptability of a virtual tumor board for cancer and mental illness for patients with serious mental illness and a new cancer diagnosis. The study also examines the impact on patient care, psychiatric symptoms, and clinician self-efficacy in managing this population.
The objective of this pilot cohort study is to investigate associations between CIN and changes in gut microbiome composition profiles.
This research is being done to learn more about coping and survivorship of women with bladder cancer, specifically regarding psychosocial distress and sexual dysfunction. This study is a non-therapeutic study and will randomize participants to a standard of care group and education group. Patients in both groups will be asked to complete surveys regarding their mood and sexual function. Patients in the intervention group will be asked to complete attendance diaries regarding educational and support services utilized. Participants' clinical data will also be collected.
The purpose of this study is to increase serious illness conversations (SICs) about patients goals and preferences regarding their healthcare between patients with cancer and their oncology clinicians and improved care provided near the end of life.
The study aims to compare the diagnostic performance of planar bone scan and two bed SPECT/CT in detection of bone metastases in patients with urogenital cancer.
This is an open label, multicenter, phase 1/2 study to assess the safety/tolerability and preliminary clinical activity of STAR0602 as a single agent administered intravenously in participants with advanced solid tumors that are antigen-rich.
This clinical trial evaluates light therapy and occupational therapy in improving cancer related fatigue (CRF) patients with genitourinary cancers. Light therapy is a non-pharmacological and evidence-based intervention for managing fatigue in cancer patients. The use of light therapy can provide a low burden, inexpensive, and easy to disseminate intervention approach that can potentially have a larger impact on CRF. In addition, occupational therapy is a standard, but often underutilized, component of the multi-disciplinary approach to cancer care. Using the combination of light therapy and occupational therapy may be effective in CRF management.
To determine the dose, safety, radiation dosimetry and efficacy of 177Lu-rhPSMA-10.1 in participants with PSMA-expressing metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer.
The purpose of this prospective cohort study is to assess clinical and quality of life measures as well as to define the severity of adverse effects for the use of the RefleXion system to deliver intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), in standard of care (SOC) use in the treatment of local,loco-regionally advanced, and oligometastatic malignancies. In addition, patient costs and charges will be analyzed to quantify the health economic impact of this modality. Workflow and quality of radiotherapy planning including a collection of dosimetric data will also be analyzed.
