Filter by:An Open-label, Single-arm, Single-dose, Prospective, Multicenter Phase 2b Study to Establish Image Interpretation Criteria for 18F-Fluciclovine Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in Detecting Recurrent Brain Metastases After Radiation Therapy
This study aims to investigate the association between hyperlactatemia and neurological disability, length-of-stay and mortality in patients who undergo tumorcraniotomy. The risk factors that induce lactat accumulation will also be explored.
An open-label, single dose, single arm, prospective, multicenter Phase 3 study to establish the diagnostic performance of 18F fluciclovine positron emission tomography (PET) in detecting recurrent brain metastases after radiation therapy
We planned to evaluate the change in tumor dimensions of intraaxial parenchymal tumors after craniotomy by comparing the tumor size on intraoperative ultrasonography (IOUSG) with pre-operative CECT and CEMRI brain.
Tumours of central nervous system (CNS) is the most common type of solid tumour in childhood. In China, there is limited epidemiology information. Released data from Chinese CDC did not include types of CNS tumours and geographic contribution. As the Children's Neuro-Oncology Group (CNOG) was established in China in May 2017, it makes studies from multiple centers in children's brain tumors become practical. This retrospective cross-sectional study was aligned on CNOG annual meeting in 2018 and research group was named as CNOG-MC001 (MC, multicenter) collaborative group.
This Phase II randomized study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Bevacizumab combined with fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy(FSRT) in patients with 1 to 10 brain metastases in non-small cell lung cancer by assessing the treatment response, perilesional edema, neurological symptoms and quality of life.
In this Phase I clinical study, the investigators plan to offer investigational treatment with the novel JAK2/STAT3 inhibitor WP1066 (Moleculin Biotech, Inc.) to pediatric patients with any progressive or recurrent malignant brain tumor that is refractory to standard treatment and is without known cure.
An optimal analgesic therapy is very important for postoperative recovery. In recent years, several studies showed that the prevalence of the moderate to severe pain after craniotomy ranged from 69 to 87% of patients. The investigators showed that the use of morphine based patient controlled analgesia prevented moderate to severe postoperative pain in patients undergoing supratentorial craniotomy. Morphine related side effects such as sedation, miosis, respiratory depression, nausea and vomiting produce a general reluctance for their use in neurosurgery. Therefore, all patients were closely observed to detect opioid related side effects in the intensive care unit for 24 hours following surgery in our previous study. The Integrated Pulmonary Index (IPI) is a new tool that calculates respiratory and hemodynamic parameters noninvasively. In the present study the investigators will use different doses of morphine based patient-controlled analgesia and the IPI system to determine more effective and safer morphine dose for postoperative analgesia following supratentorial craniotomy.
Background: 3,4-dihydroxy-6-[18F]-fluoro-L-phenylalanine (FDOPA) positron emission tomography (PET) can identify well low and high grade brain tumors. However, increased FDOPA uptake has been reported in non-tumoral brain lesions. The aim was to analyse FDOPA-PET in patients with non-tumoral brain lesions and to compare them with patients with (low and high grade) brain tumors. Methods: retrospective analyse. Patients consecutively recruited with suspected primary brain tumor (based on clinical and MRI findings) referred for FDOPA-PET at Nimes university Hospital between June 2015 and June 2019. FDOPA-PET parameters (maximum and mean lesion standardized uptake values [SUV] and ratios comparing lesion with different background uptake SUV) and thresholds were analysed in search for those offering optimal discrimination between non-tumoral and tumoral lesions.
In this pilot study participants will undergo routine magnetic resonance imaging and routine neurosurgical care. By prospectively collecting data from both MRI and patient records we want to investigate biomarkers derived from tractography and diffusion tensor imaging to predict rehabilitation potential.
