Filter by:This is a Phase II study designed to investigate if the Covid 19 vaccines are capable of eliciting production of antibodies against S protein of Sar-S-Cov-2 virus among patients with medical history of cancer previously treated with monoclonal anti CD-20 antibodies. The antibody production is defined based on the detection of antibodies in the serologic Covid-19 rapid test against S protein or with semiquantitative assay when it becomes available.
The incidence of anemia ranges from 20 to 75% depending on the type of cancer. It is often present at diagnosis and increases with specific treatments. It has an impact on overall survival and quality of life. Its origins are multiple (pure iron deficiency or functional, malnutrition, dyserythropoiesis, insufficiency renal, hemolysis, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapies). Transfusion is the most common treatment offered in the management of anemia. The incidence of anemia and its consequences are often underestimated during cancer management. Recommendations were published in 2012. An inventory of the incidence of anemia before and after the publication of these recommendations are proposed in order to assess their impact on daily practice.
The COVIDOUT study will prospectively investigate the serological immunity of outpatient cancer patients to evaluate the prevalence of previous severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections and dependency of serological immunity on systemic (chemo)therapy after COVID19 disease as well as after vaccination.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of the Mediracer® NCS device in early detection of CIPN in patients receiving potentially neurotoxic substance (vincristine, oxaliplatin or docetaxel) as a part of their chemotherapy regimen.
Although PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have proved effective in treating many cancers, few patients receiving PARPi may experience rare but serious adverse events such as pancytopenia. Today, data about pancytopenia are scarce. The objective was to investigate reports of pancytopenia adverse events related to PARPi, including olaparib, rucaparib, niraparib, talazoparib, veliparib and pamiparib using the World Health Organization's (WHO) pharmacovigilance database: VigiBase.
This protocol aims to evaluate the efficacy of a theoretically and stakeholder informed patient-centered genetic Interactive Health Communication Application to increase patient understanding of, and affective and behavioral responses to genetic testing. The study investigators hypothesize that the intervention will be associated with increases in knowledge, decreases in distress, increases in communication with relatives and health care providers, and increases in performance of risk reducing health behaviors.
Although PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have proved effective in treating many cancers, few patients receiving PARPi may experience rare but serious (or not) adverse events such as hypertension whose data are scarce. The objective was to investigate reports of hypertension related to PARPi, including olaparib, rucaparib, niraparib, talazoparib, veliparib, pamiparib, and fluzoparib using the World Health Organization's (WHO) pharmacovigilance database: VigiBase.
This project's overall goal is to test the feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of two coach-assisted, computer-based, cognitive- behavioral therapy (C-CBT) interventions in treating depression and anxiety in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. The two coach-assisted interventions will be compared to the standard C-CBT intervention.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effects and side effects of inactive COVID-19 vaccine in patients with cancer and compare them with the healthy control group.
The public health council (Haut Conseil de Santé Publique) published a statement on 14 March 2020 relating to the management of patients with severe forms of COVID-19, stipulating specific recommendations for patients with cancer. The statement notes that patients with cancer at much higher risk (four to five times higher) of several respiratory complications, which develop very rapidly, especially if they had recently undergone surgery or chemotherapy in the previous few weeks, and that this risk could be life-threatening, on top of the cancer-related risk. In addition, the statement noted that: - COVID-19 appears to be more frequent in patients with cancer than among the general population (1% vs 0.29%) - Among those infected, the risk of severe respiratory complications requiring admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) is higher in patients with cancer than among those without (39% vs 8%, P=0.0003). - A history of chemotherapy or surgery in the previous months is an important prognostic factor for the development of severe respiratory complications (odds ratio (OR) = 5.34, P= 0.0026). - Deterioration of respiratory function occurs more quickly in patients with cancer (13 vs 43 days, hazard ratio (HR) 3.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) [1.65-7.69]). In addition, COVID-19 may lead to a change in the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with cancer, with potential consequences such as use of oral treatments at home, discontinuation of anticancer therapy depending on the context, or prioritization of management according to curative/palliative treatment type, age, and line of therapy. International studies previously reported the psychological repercussions of major epidemics on the emotional state. The impact of COVID-19 on patients with cancer therefore warrants evaluation, among cancer patients in the French West Indies, in the current situation of nationwide lockdown.
