Filter by:To investigate, whether multi-fraction stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) within 3 treatment fractions is non-inferior to the current standard of care of 5 fraction SBRT regarding pain response at 3 months after radiotherapy.
To assess the added value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the skeleton compared to other validated techniques for the detection of bone lesions in patients with multiple myeloma.
This is an observational study in which data from Chinese men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to the bones and who start Radium-223 therapy is studied. When tumors form in the prostate, male hormones like testosterone will cause the spread and growth of tumors. Men with prostate cancer can have hormonal or surgical treatment that lowers testosterone. But this may not stop the cancer from growing or spreading in some men. When the prostate cancer is no longer responding to therapies aimed at lowering testosterone (castration resistant) and has spread to the bones (metastatic), it is referred to as bone metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The study treatment, Radium-223 (also called Xofigo), gives off radiation that helps to kill cancer cells. It is already approved to be used for men whose prostate cancer has spread to the bone with symptoms, but not to be used for other types of tumors or for prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Sometimes, after the approval of some drugs, researchers will further study the safety of such approved treatments in patients being treated in routine clinical practice. In this study, researchers want to learn more about the medical problems that may occur in Chinese patients after they start Radium-223 therapy, especially those problems concerning the blood and blood-forming organs. To answer this question, the researchers will observe patients who start Radium-223 as part of their routine care and also collect information of any medical problems happening after Radium-223 injections from the medical records of these patients. These medical problems may or may not be related to Radium-223 and are also known as adverse events. The researchers will assess the percentage of men who developed medical problems concerning the blood and blood-forming organs from the start of Radium-223 injection till up to 6 months after the last Radium-223 injection. The researchers will also collect data on the time the participants live after start of treatment, the change in pain severity, and the time between the end of Radium-223 treatment and the beginning of the following therapy against the cancer. Besides the data collection, no further tests or examinations of any patients or any samples are planned in this study. The participants will start Radium-223 treatment as part of their routine care as prescribed by their doctors according to the recommended use. Data collection of each participant will last until the participant leaves the study or until the study ends. The study is planned to end 6 months after the last included participant receives the last injection of Radium-223.
This is a prospective, single-center, randomized study directly comparing outcomes after MR guided high intensity focused ultrasound (MR HIFU) or external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) treatment of painful bone metastases.
Metastatic disease to the bone is a common cause of pain. External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is the standard palliative treatment BUT pain improvement is observed in 60% to 80%. Combination of hyperthermia (HT) with radiation is strongly compelling. MR is providing accurate, tissue-independent thermometry for intra-procedural guidance of thermal therapy. In this project we aim to combine in an adjuvant setting mild hyperthermia to EBRT for sustained relief of pain in patients with symptomatic bone metastases.
This is a prospective, investigator-initiated, phase II, multicentre-study, investigating the efficacy and toxicity of definitive SABR of osseous oligometastases, when pragmatically introduced into a daily clinical setting.
The aim of the current prospective multicenter study is to evaluate cancer-specific and bone metastases related HR-QoL, psychological distress and fatigue in mCRPC patients before, during and after treatment with radium-223 in daily practice. Furthermore, the investigators aim to determine patient groups with identical health-related quality of life patterns over time, in order to identify variables related to health-related quality of life deterioration during the course of treatment, as patients with health-related quality of life deterioration may need specific attention to preserve health-related quality of life.
Fractionated stereotatic radiation therapy (FSRT) that very precisely delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. The purpose of this study is to find out if FSRT is safe and effective in the treatment of metastatic spinal tumors of breast cancer.
