Filter by:The placement of mega knee prosthesis is a necessity after a large tumor resection and oncological. These mega knee prostheses implanted in the context of oncological surgery have been very few evaluated in the literature. Active knee extension is essential in order to walk properly. The study propose the evaluation of this prosthesis by checking the possibility of locking of the prosthetic joint and thus the possibility of active walking. A more in-depth, isokinetic analysis at 1 year of follow-up will also be done in an exploratory manner, as the literature has no data on this subject.
This study was conducted to advance new treatment for patients with metastatic or locally advanced cancers expressing Neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1). This study was the first time the investigational drug called 177Lu-3BP-227 was administered to patients under controlled conditions of a clinical study. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how safe the investigational drug is as well to verify how well it is tolerated by patients after several intravenous administrations. In addition, the effect of the study drug on tumoral lesions and how it distributes throughout the body and at which rate it is removed from the body was evaluated. Since 177Lu-3BP-227 is a radio-labelled drug, it also measured how the emitted radiation is distributed throughout the body (dosimetry). The study consisted of a phase I dose escalation part. The study originally planned to include a phase II study however due to early termination (not due to safety concerns) the study did not progress to phase II and was stopped during phase I. For the phase I dose escalation part, it was anticipated that approximately 30 subjects will be included, in up to six escalation steps. No expansion cohorts were implemented.
This study will explore the biologic activity of guanabenz in reducing bone turn over in solid tumor patients with bone metastasis. If successful, this repurposing of an already, generic drug could benefit patients faster than manufacturing a novel expensive compound.
This clinical trial studies fluorine F-18 sodium fluoride positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in diagnosing bone tumors in patients with cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as fluorine F-18 sodium fluoride PET/CT, may help find and diagnose bone cancer
The outcome of patients with metastatic Ewings Sarcoma is poor with current standard of care chemotherapy, with less than 30% survival. Based on recent encouraging pediatric literature we have designed this trial to improve the outcome of patients with metastatic Ewings sarcoma using Irinotecan and Temozolomide in addition to standard chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to look at pain control and QOL improvement after treatment with CK Radiosurgery for spinal metastases.
This is a Phase 1/1B, non-randomized, open-label, dose-escalation study of robatumumab (SCH 717454, MK-7454) administered in combination with chemotherapy in pediatric participants with solid tumors, to be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and dose-finding of robatumumab when administered in combination with temozolomide and irinotecan (Arm A); or cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and vincristine (Arm B), or ifosfamide and etoposide (Arm C). The primary study hypothesis is that robatumumab can be safely administered in combination with chemotherapy regimens in pediatric participants with solid tumors.
Primary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the material properties, histomorphometric indices, bone mineral density (BMD), and presence of microfractures in retrieved large allograft cortical bone specimens removed from orthopaedic oncology patients. 2. To correlate physical properties to patient demographics and medical treatment received.
Patients who receive radiation therapy often have fatigue or a decrease in feeling well causing a "wasting" away. For patients with advanced disease of lung cancer, prostate cancer, or cancer that has spread to the bone, it is hoped that this drug may decrease this. If patients feel better during treatments they can complete the therapy without any breaks in treatment. For treatment to be most effective, it should be given in the amount needed, on a particular schedule.
