Filter by:Bone metastasis causes bone destruction and skeletal related events (SRE) including compression fracture, hypercalcemia, and spinal cord compression. Therefore, palliative treatments for pain control and local control have become important and multidisciplinary multimodality approach is needed for treatment of bone metastasis. The efficacy of radiotherapy (RT) for bone metastasis is well known. And the results that bisphosphonate decreases SRE in patients with solid tumor and multiple myeloma reported. In previous retrospective reports, the combination of local RT and systemic bisphosphonate was more effective than RT alone. Therefore, Investigators designed a phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of RT in combination with zoledronic acid on pain relief and the safety of RT in bone metastasis patients with gastrointestinal tumors.
Up to 180 patients with bone metastasis and requiring analgesic treatment will be followed during 4 to 10 weeks. All patients will continue to receive their cancer therapeutic treatments and be treated for pain relief exactly as they would normally be by the Investigator based on their needs. During their regular visits to the Investigator, patients will complete questionnaires and Clinical Pain Assessments.
The Philips Sonalleve HIFU system is expected to be efficacious in reducing pain scores in patients with painful osteoid osteoma and other benign bone tumors, and in reducing their pain medication usage. No serious adverse effects are expected to result from this treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether tanezumab is effective in the treatment of cancer pain due to bone metastasis in patients already taking background opioid therapy.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and effect on quality of life of oral ibandronate (Bondronat) in participants with breast cancer and metastatic bone disease. The anticipated time on study treatment is 25 weeks, and the target sample size is 50 individuals.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of ibandronate (Bondronat), administered intravenously (IV) or orally (PO), in participants with malignant bone disease and moderate to severe pain. Participants will be randomized to receive ibandronate either as a 6-mg IV infusion every 3 to 4 weeks or a 50-mg tablet PO daily. Pain response and Karnofsky Performance Index (KPI) will be measured at intervals throughout the study. The anticipated time on study treatment is 4 months and the target sample size is 150 individuals.
The aim of this study is to identify demographic & disease characteristics in pediatric oncology patients diagnosed with soft tissue & bone tumors involving the extremities & treatment outcomes in these patients.
This study will assess the short term efficacy of ibandronate (6 mg intravenous [IV]) in participants with breast cancer and malignant bone disease, with moderate to severe pain. All participants will receive an IV infusion of ibandronate on Days 1, 2, and 3, and pain response will be measured on Days 1-7. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3 days, and the target sample size is 182 individuals.
Primitive malignant bone tumor or mixt tumor (compounded of soft tissues and bone) is a rare pathology particularly within the pelvis, the sacrum or the hip (between 25 and 80 new cases in France per year). The reference treatment is a surgical "en bloc" resection associated or not to a medical treatment. This surgery remains highly challenging because of the complex three-dimensional geometry of the pelvic bone and the proximity of important organs and neurovascular structures. The local recurrence rate is significantly increased when the resection does not respect a safe tissues margin (R0 margin). A new technology has been developed and used in different reference sites the Patient Specific Instrument (PSI), manufactured by 3D-Side. The PSI allows for a more secure and reliable surgical gesture, leading to more frequent R0 margins. The main objective of this study is to compare the efficiency of the PSI for bone tumor resections within the pelvis with respect to the reference method.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of cryoablation for palliation of painful metastases in participants with metastatic lesions involving bone who have failed, are not candidates for, or are not experiencing adequate pain relief from current pain therapies (for example, radiation, analgesics).
