Filter by:The study is a prospective, first-in-human, multi-center, non-randomized, single-arm study to assess the safety and efficacy of the CEM-Cage used with the CEM-Plate in patients who are appropriate candidates for a 2-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). Fifty patients will be enrolled in the study and, after undergoing a 2-level ACDF, will be evaluated at 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months.
This is a multicenter，randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group study comparing efficacy and safety of LY01011 (recombinant anti-RANKL human monoclonal antibody injection) and Xgeva® in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors.
A multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel controlled Phase III clinical study to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of MW032 and Xgeva® in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to assess the problems and a range of nutritional and clinical outcomes that occur with two feeding tubes used by children having a bone marrow transplant. Children and parents will also be interviewed to ask about their experiences of tube feeding.
Ufoguide is a prospective single arm open study to assess the feasibility of a new type of HIFU system to treat bone tumors. HIFU is classically delivered by a transducer integrated in the MRI table. This study assesses a new type of approach in which the HIFU transducer is manually placed on the skin of the patient, under the assistance of optical navigation, and held in place by MR-compatible passive arms. The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of heating the tumor accurately with this new HIFU system. The evaluation and monitoring of the treatment will be performed by MR thermometry. Secondary endpoints include the evaluation of clinical efficacy, quality of life and safety.
Deep learning technology has been used increasingly in spine surgery as well as in many medical fields. However, it is noticed that most of the studies about this subject in the literature have been conducted except of the cervical spine. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the deep learning algorithm in the diagnosis of cervical myelomalacia compared to conventional diagnostic methods. Artificial neural networks, a machine learning technique, have been used in several industrial and research fields increasingly. The development of computational units and the increasing amount of data led to the development of new methods on artificial neural networks
This is a retrospective/prospective observational multicentric trial on patients with bone metastases from NENs. General objectives: - To trace on a national scale the frequency of bone metastases in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) and their clinical management. - To correlate clinical and biological factors to clinical outcomes. - To centralise and to make homogeneous clinical, pathological, instrumental and therapeutic information. - To set up a database and to acquire biological material for studying predictive and prognostic biomarkers.
Degenerative (wear and tear arthritis of the spine) Cervical (concerning the neck) Myelopathy (injury to the spinal cord), DCM, is the most common spinal cord disorder of adulthood. In DCM, arthritis of the spine causes compression of the spinal cord. The symptoms of DCM are often mistaken for natural consequences of ageing, including numb and clumsy hands, loss of coordination, imbalance, bladder and bowel problems. The weakness can progress to severe paralysis. Every year approximately 4 individuals in 100,000 undergo surgery for DCM; however, many more individuals are thought to suffer from DCM. The main treatment for DCM is surgery. The aim of surgery is to create space and remove the compression of the spinal cord. This is known to prevent further injury. Unfortunately, the post-operative improvements are often incomplete and many patients remain severely disabled. Improving outcome after surgery represents an important unmet clinical need. Clinical and preclinical findings indicate that the drug Ibudilast can stimulate neuroprotective and regenerative processes in the spinal cord. Ibudilast is well-tolerated and used to treat asthma and post-stroke dizziness in Japan and is currently being investigated for use in treating other neurological diseases. This study will investigate whether daily oral administration of Ibudilast for a maximum of 34 weeks can improve hand function, strength, balance, urinary problems and reduce pain. The study will initially be conducted at three sites in the UK, with more sites added as necessary. Individuals between 18-80 years old, diagnosed with DCM and scheduled for an operation for the first time will be invited to participate in the trial. The study will entail patient questionnaires and clinical assessments before surgery, shortly after surgery and 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Moreover, patients will undergo MRI scans pre-operatively and at 6-months postoperatively to determine whether the treatment was successful.
This is a randomized, open-label, dose-finding, multi-centre, phase Ⅰb study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of JMT103 in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors.
To date, no consensus exists on which anterior surgical technique is more cost-effective to treat cervical degenerative disc disease (CDDD). The most commonly used surgical treatment for patients with single- or multilevel symptomatic CDDD is anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (ACDF). However, new complaints of radiculopathy and/or myelopathy commonly develop at adjacent levels, also known as clinical adjacent segment pathology (CASP). It remains unknown to what extent kinematics, surgery-induced fusion and natural history of disease play a role in its development. Anterior cervical discectomy with arthroplasty (ACDA) is thought to reduce the incidence of CASP by preserving motion in the operated segment. ACDA is often discouraged as the implant costs are higher whilst the clinical outcomes are similar to ACDF. However, preventing CASP might be a reason for ACDA to be a more cost-effective technique in the long-term. In this randomized controlled trial patients will be randomized to receive ACDF or ACDA in a 1:1 ratio. Adult patients with single- or multi-level CDDD and symptoms of radiculopathy and/or myelopathy will be included. The primary outcome is cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of both techniques from a societal perspective. Secondary objectives are the differences in clinical and radiological outcomes between the two techniques, as well as the qualitative process surrounding anterior decompression surgery. All outcomes will be measured at baseline and every 6 months till 4 years postoperatively. High quality evidence regarding the cost-effectiveness of both ACDA and ACDF is lacking, to date no prospective trials from a societal perspective exist. Considering the ageing of the population and the rising healthcare costs, the need for a solid clinical cost-effectiveness trial addressing this question is high.
