Filter by:Interventional study without medicinal, randomized 1: 1 open-label, multicenter, phase 3 to evaluate the response in terms of reduction of pain symptomatology from bone metastases, comparing the conformational radiotherapy (3D-CRT) administered in conventional fractionation vs. extracranial stereotactic radiotherapy (SBRT) administered with concomitant integrated simultaneous boost (Simultaneous Integrated Boost-SIB)
Patients with metastases to proximal femur, who are evaluated fr the risk of pathologic fracture in order to decide on preventive fixation vs follow-up constitute the study population. The patients will be randomized in two arms. First arm - the decision of treatment will rely on conventional decision algorithm including specialist judgement and Mirels' score. Second arm- the decision on treatment will be supported by CTFEA analysis of bone structure and quantitative simulation-based estimate of fracture risk, in addition to the conventional decision algorithm. Operation rates, pathologic fracture rates and additional secondary outcomes will be compared between the two study arms.
Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a new technique to strengthen bone and reduce pain for patients with vertebral tumors
This prospective observational study is going to figure out the safety and efficacy of denosumab as an post-operative strategy.All the patients enrolled will take denosumab according to the protocols.We focus on the recurrence rate after the drug withdrawl and possibility of malignant transformation.
Bone metastasis give rise to major complications that lead to significant morbidity and impairment of life quality. The most common primary for bone metastasis is prostate, lung and breast carcinoma. These three have the highest cancer incidence in the USA with up to 85% prevalence of bone metastases at the time of death. Pain from these osseous lesions can be related to mechanical or chemical factors. Pressure effects on the periosteum or adjacent neural structures can cause local or radiating pain. Hemorrhage from local bone osteolysis by osteoclastic activity causes a local release of bradykinin, prostaglandins, histamine and substance P that can irritate the endosteal nerves as well as local nerves. The life expectancy of patients with osseous metastatic disease is variable but can be substantially longer for patients with multiple myeloma, breast or prostate cancer. Therefore, finding an effective local therapy that can improve patient quality of life and can be done at a single outpatient sitting would be beneficial. The current and emerging treatments for osseous metastases may be considered in several categories: radiotherapy, systemic chemotherapy (cytotoxic, hormonal and radionuclides), surgical stabilization and percutaneous tumor ablation. These treatments may be applied in isolation but also frequently in combination. MRI Guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a completely non-invasive technology for thermal ablation. HIFU is capable of concentrating ultrasonic pressure waves to a specified region without any physical penetration of the body. The converging ultrasonic pressure wave is converted to thermal energy at the specific depth, resulting in local heating at the focus. Temperature elevation is proportional to the proton resonance frequency shift, therefore MR imaging provides accurate technique for target definition and energy deposition control. MRI guided Focused Ultrasound therapy is being performed in treatment of uterine leiomyomas (fibroids). Recently the method has gained both AMAR authorization and FDA approval, and CE approval for that indication. Clinical trials of HIFU in bone metastases have indicated that the method is safe and gives an effective reduction of patient pain. The short- and long-term effects on tumor volume and morphology do not seem to have been evaluated thus far. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate effectiveness of MRI guided HIFU in the treatment of metastatic bone tumors
The purpose of this Phase I/II study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dendritic cells(DC) vaccine combined with cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells in patients with Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer with bone metastases. Experimental DC was transfected Ad5 vector coding mRNAs including suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) 1, MUC1 and Survivin,are used for DC-based immunotherapy. Based on the results of our previously preclinical study with DC vaccine combined with CIK cells, the investigators plan to perform the clinical trial.
This study will give comparison of the bone pain remission and the adverse reaction of Zoledronic acid combine with High dose fractionation radiotherapy(30Gy/10f) and Zoledronic acid combine with low dose fractionation radiotherapy(15Gy/5f) . The purpose of this trial is to prove whether Zoledronic acid combine radiotherapy can reduce radiotherapy dose in treatment of non-small cell lung cancer bone metastasis'pain relief or not.
