Filter by:Cervical cancer is one of the major health problems for chinese women. Besides surgery and radiotherapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been proved to be an effective program by many studies. However, not all patients respond well to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Knowing the therapeutic effect of the neoadjuvant chemotherapy before receiving it can not only reduce the economic burden, but also more importantly save time to take more suitable treatments. This study is undertaken to build specific molecular signatures to predict the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
This is a Phase IIb, multicohort, open-label multicenter study of combination immunotherapies in patients who have previously received treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors. All patients in Cohorts 1-4 will receive the combination treatment of PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor plus N-803 for up to 17 cycles. Each cycle is six weeks in duration. Some patients who experience disease progression while on study in Cohorts 1-4 may roll over into Cohort 5 and receive combination therapy with a PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor, N-803, and PD-L1 t-haNK cellular therapy for up to an additional 17 cycles. Each cycle is six weeks in duration. All patients will receive N-803 once every 3 weeks. Patients will also receive the same checkpoint inhibitor that they received during their previous therapy. Radiologic evaluation will occur at the end of each treatment cycle. Treatment will continue for up to 2 years, or until the patient experiences confirmed progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, withdraws consent, or if the Investigator feels it is no longer in the patient's best interest to continue treatment. Patients will be followed for disease progression, post-therapies, and survival through 24 months past administration of the first dose of study drug.
Locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) refers to the clinically cervical visible lesion with a diameter of > 4 cm, which has been considered as a high risk of early cervical cancer for a long time. Because of local bulk lesion of LACC, the risk of radical hysterectomy is pretty high and the radical effect commonly does not meet the satisfactory. Therefore, 1-3 course of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) were carried out before operation. However, nearly 20% of patients are not sensitive to NACT. Therefore NACT did not bring any benefits to radical surgery even to some extent delayed the treatment. Traditional radiotherapy is also commonly used in the treatment of LACC, however ovarian function would be permanently destroyed especially for young patients, additionally radioactive complications to adjacent organs of cervical such as vagina, bladder and rectal also commonly happened, moreover sexual dysfunction after radiotherapy significantly affect the life quality of young patients. Particle radiotherapy developed recently, has the advantages of short course of treatment and mild side effects, due to its special working mechanism, Bragg effect. So the amount of radiation in the tumor tissue is very extremely high, and in the adjacent tissue is quiet low, therefore the organs at risk were protected by avoiding unnecessary damage. Based on these, we proposed the application of particle radiotherapy in LACC pre-operation, and comprehensively evaluated recent curative effect, complications and long-term follow-up between particle radiotherapy and NACT. Furthermore, the clinical significance and long-term application prospects about particle therapy were objectively assessed.
The proposed study will examine the implementation of a Human Papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling intervention for unscreened and under-screened transgender men and transmasculine individuals living in South Florida. The study will enroll participants to receive this cervical cancer screening intervention in community venues. The purpose of this study is to pilot the self-sampler for feasibility and acceptability within this underserved population.
PATH is a research study for cancer survivors to help participants to become more active. Studies suggested an association between inactivity and cancer. The investigators created new novel ways and technologies that may help participants to become more active. The three methods the investigators are studying are: 1) participant become active on her/his own; educational material will be provided; 2) working with a programmed health coach over the phone via text messages; and 3) using digital voice assist to help participant become more active. The digital voice assist will be delivered via Amazon Alexa on Echo speaker (it is the famous intelligent voice that you see in superball commercial by Alec Baldwin). This study is funded by the State of Maryland.
Hypoxic tumour cells within the primary tumour have shown prognostic importance for local and metastatic disease control in several cancer sites. Radioresistant hypoxic cells diminish the rate of local control, and the hypoxia driven increase in metastatic potential of the tumour and lowers the rate of distant disease control. DCE MR imaging has been used to quantify the extent of poor perfusion regions within cervical tumours and it has been shown to be a surrogate of hypoxia. Furthermore, a number of studies have demonstrated that DCE MR is predictive of disease failure in cervix cancer. The EMBRACE II study will implement an imaging sub-study, which will evaluate the value of quantitative MR imaging to identify patients at increased risk of disease recurrence (local, nodal and systemic).
A Prospective, open, randomized, controlled clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PEG-rhG-CSF(PEGylated recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor injection) in reducing neutropenia during TP(docetaxel+cisplatin) regiment simultaneous radiochemotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with cervical cancer
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the immuno-persistence (type specific IgG antibody) of the tested vaccine administered in girls aged 9-17 years ,comparing to young healthy adults of 18-26 years who received the standard 3-dose schedule (0,1,6 months).
This pilot clinical trial studies how well the Carevive Survivor Care Planning System works in improving quality of life in breast cancer survivors. A personalized survivor care plan includes a summary of a patient's cancer treatment and a customized survivor care plan and may provide beneficial information and resources.
STUDY PURPOSES: This study aims to evaluate a high resolution microendoscope (HRME): 1) To assess the sensitivity and specificity of the HRME device in the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) or histologically more severe lesion (NIC2+) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) or histologically more severe lesion (NIC3+) in a comprehensive case-by-case basis; 2) Compare the accuracy of the HRME device with acetic acid visualization (VIA) and colposcopy. METHODOLOGY: 1,780 women with abnormal Pap Smears (ASCUS+) or positive high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) test in the cervix performed in the Barretos Cancer Hospital (HCB, Barretos, Brazil) screening program will be recruited, either at Mobile Prevention Units or Fixed Units, who have been referred for diagnostic investigation with colposcopy. The invitation for women to participate in the study will be made immediately before the medical consultation for colposcopy, in the Prevention Department of Barretos Cancer Hospital. Women who decide to participate in this study will sign an Informed Consent Form after invitation and relevant explanations, which will be provided by the researcher in charge or by a representative with previous training appointed by him for the application of the Form in question. During the colposcopy examination, the HRME device will be used to check the presence of precursor lesions in the cervix. HRME will capture images from all areas considered abnormal by VIA and/or colposcopy. Any abnormal areas detected by VIA and/or colposcopy will undergo a biopsy. If no abnormal area is observed, a cervical microbiopsy will be obtained from an apparently normal area examined using HRME. If during the study a precursor disease or cervical cancer is detected in any woman, an appropriate treatment will be offered by Barretos Cancer Hospital according to an institutional protocol.
