Filter by:Determine the efficacy and safety of turmeric in the treatment of patients with advanced cervical cancer. Efficacy will be determined through radiological and histopathological criteria through the rate of response to treatment, duration of response, the rate of objective response and disease control, as well as overall survival and disease-free survival. The safety of therapy will be evaluated according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) classification
The purpose of the study is to determine the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of implementing new strategies to screen and treat eligible women for cervical cancer through a cluster randomized trial of two different models. Both models offer the same screening and treatment algorithm, but one will be based in Voluntary Family Planning (VFP) or other clinics and the second will be based in the community. Participants will be recruited from two districts in Malawi with the highest HIV prevalence in the country: Lilongwe in the Central Region and Zomba in the Southern Region.
Human papilloma virus (HPV) is responsible of the most common sexually transmitted infection. It can cause severe cancer lesions, of the cervix, vulva, vagina, penis and oropharynx. The International Agency for Cancer Research of World Health Organization (WHO) classified a dozen of HPV related high-risk cancer types, and recognized cervical cancer as the most common HPV-related disease. HPV 16 and 18 are responsible for 70% of cervical cancers. Due to the few symptoms of cervical cancer, women are often diagnosed with advanced state. Current treatments imply cervical conisation or hysterectomy, with or without lymphadenectomy and or radiotherapy, or chemotherapy. However, few pharmacological options are available against oncogenic papilloma viruses and thus against recurrences The aim of this project is to develop relevant organoids models from patient biopsies that will be used to identify biomarkers and evaluate in a closest preclinical setting novel nucleic acids based therapeutic strategy for HPV-cervical-vaginal dysplasia and cancers.
Poor tumor oxygenation (hypoxia) is an established negative prognostic and predictive factor in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Hypoxia-modifying measures implemented in the clinic are lacking. Metformin is a well-known, well-tolerated and low-cost drug used for decades in the treatment of type 2- diabetes. Recent studies suggest an improved tumor oxygenation by metformin potentially improving radiotherapy response and patient outcome. This study is a randomized, phase II, open label study in patients with LACC where patients are randomized to standard cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy +/- Metformin. Metformin will be started one week prior to the start of chemoradiotherapy, and will be continued throughout the entire radiation treatment. Tumor oxygenation will be evaluated by gene signatures and MRI- parameters.
To observe the effects of different treatments on the oncological outcome and complications of early cervical cancer (2018 FIGO stage IA1 with lymphovascular space invasion and IA2-IIA2 cervical cancer). This study prospectively collecting enrolled cervical cancer patients clinical data and outcome from June 2020 to June 2025. (Classification factors: preoperative neoadjuvant treatment , surgical approach, type of hysterectomy, whether to receive radiochemotherapy) . This study is an observational study, and segmented analysis according to different treatment methods.
This phase I trial studies a sexual health counseling intervention during radiation therapy in improving quality of life for women with gynecologic cancer. Women with gynecologic cancer often suffer long-term complications from treatment that can affect their physical and psychological well-being. An early sexual health counseling intervention prior to and after radiation may improve symptoms management and reduce the physical and psychological effects of treatment.
The purpose of this study is to see if curcumin can suppress HPV infection in women with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) disease or treated high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) disease. This study plans to explore the effect of curcumin as a potential medical treatment in HIV-uninfected and infected women with mild precancerous lesions of the cervix or recently treated high-grade precancerous lesions at risk for persistent HPV infection. About 200 women with low-grade precancerous lesions of the cervix or recently treated high-grade precancerous lesions will be enrolled to either insert 2000 mg of curcumin capsules in their vagina once a week or placebo after undergoing colposcopy or loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP). They will have a repeat visit in 6 months where they will undergo a Pap smear and HPV test to determine if there are higher rates of HPV clearance after curcumin administration. If HPV is present or the Pap smear is abnormal, patients will then undergo colposcopic examination to evaluate cervical histology.
Background: Gene therapy is closely followed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA requires researchers to conduct long-term follow-up of people who have had the treatment. This study collects data on people who have had gene therapy and sends it to the FDA. The data does not include participants names. Objective: To contact current or past participants of gene therapy protocols at least once a year for up to 15 years to ensure they have not had any harmful side effects. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older who have had gene therapy in a National Cancer Institute study Design: Participants will give their address and telephone number. They will also give and the address and phone number of 1 or 2 other people who will know where they are. For the first year after gene therapy, participants will give blood samples 3 times (at 3, 6, and 12 months). For the next 4 years, they may have a physical exam and laboratory tests with a home physician. They will get a kit to mail in blood samples. Or they can visit the NIH Clinical Center. They will be asked if they have had any signs of neurological, autoimmune, or blood disorders, or any new cancers. For years 6 to 15, participants will be contacted yearly via phone or email and asked questions about their health. They may give blood samples. When the participant dies, if researchers think the death was caused by gene therapy, they will ask the participant s family to allow an autopsy. ...
There are continued disparities in cancer incidence, mortality, and survival between American Indians (AIs) and Whites on cancers responsive to early screening (i.e., breast, colorectal, and cervical) in the US. In New Mexico (NM), AIs compared with other racial/ethnic populations are significantly less likely to adhere to recommended screening guidelines. The purpose of this trial is to develop and pilot test multilevel/multicomponent intervention strategies to enhance screening for breast, colorectal, and cervical cancers.
The aim of this research is to evaluate thiol‑disulfide balance in cervix cancer patients
