Filter by:The treatment of high grade Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) 2, 3 is defined according to the colposcopic evaluation of the patient. In case colposcopy findings are satisfactory (visible squamocolumnar junction), both ablative and excisional methods are adequate. In the middle of the 20th century, lateral hemostatic sutures were added to the cold knife conization surgical technique to reduce blood loss. Some authors recommend that these branches should be ligated, but it remains unclear whether these sutures are actually effective in reducing bleeding.This study compared blood loss during cold knife conization of the cervix with and without lateral hemostatic sutures.
This pilot clinical trial studies KeraStat Skin Therapy in treating radiation dermatitis in patients with newly diagnosed stage 0-IIIA breast cancer. Radiation dermatitis is an itchy, painful skin rash that can occur following treatment with radiation. KeraStat Skin Therapy may be a better treatment for radiation dermatitis.
Breast cancer affects a large proportion of Danish women and late morbidity following breast cancer treatment including pain, reduced motility and force of the arm and shoulder, disturbed sensitivity, and lymph edema affects many patients. The risk for such late complications have previously been carefully described by us and others in patients operated by traditional methods, but the follow-up in most of these studies have been rather short , and long time follow-up results are not available. The impact of the new oncoplastic techniques that allows more women to have breast conserving surgery is not known yet. These operations are more extensive and therefore might be accompanied by more complications. The purpose of this study is to give answer to that question.The study includes three parts. First a questionnaire to patients who have breast conserving surgery performed in one of the three breast units in Central Region Denmark. It contains questions regarding arm morbidity, quality of life, comorbidity, and body image. The questionnaire should be filled in preoperatively and 18 months after surgery. The second part consists of an objective evaluation of shoulder and arm function and cosmesis before and after breast conserving surgery with and without oncoplastic techniques. This should be performed at baseline before surgery and 18 months later. The third part is a long time follow-up of patients after breast conserving surgery without oncoplastic techniques. This group of patients is recruited from three breast units in Central Region Denmark. It contains questions regarding arm morbidity, quality of life, comorbidity, and body image. The questionnaire should be filled in preoperatively and 18 months after surgery. The second part consists of an objective evaluation of shoulder and arm function and cosmesis before and after breast conserving surgery with and without oncoplastic techniques. This should be performed at baseline before surgery and 18 months later. The third part is a long time follow-up of patients after breast conserving surgery without oncoplastic techniques. This group of patients is recruited from the cohort in a previous study with 18 months follow-up following breast conserving surgery without oncoplastic technique.
This randomized double-blind clinical trial studied the effect of oral omega-3 fatty acid on atrophic vaginitis in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors (N=52). Omega-3 fatty acid may reduce inflammation and improve vaginal symptoms in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors.
This trial studies the prevalence of anal dysplasia and anal cancer in patients with cervical, vaginal, and vulvar dysplasia and cancer. Studying samples collected from patients in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about the human papillomavirus and how often anal cancer occurs in patients with cervix, vagina, or vulvar cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of GX-188E for the Phase 3 and access the efficacy and safety of GX-188E according the protocol in patients with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia 3 (CIN3).
Naltrexone is a drug which blocks some effects of chemicals called beta-endorphins that are made in the body. Beta-endorphins can be made in response to stress, injury, and also pleasurable activities. In previous studies, it has been shown that levels of beta-endorphins in the blood go up during radiation therapy, and that this increase is linked to fatigue. This suggests that naltrexone may help to reduce fatigue in people who are getting radiation therapy In this research study, the investigators are looking to see whether naltrexone works better than a placebo in reducing fatigue during radiation therapy.
The randomized phase of the trial compared topical or ablative treatment with active monitoring in preventing anal cancer in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL). Anal HSIL is tissue in the anal canal that has been damaged by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) and is at risk for turning into anal cancer. The ANCHOR Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) determined that the primary study endpoint was completed, based on the data and statistical analysis presented to them on 07SEP2021. In the post-randomization phase of this trial, all enrolled participants are offered treatment for HSIL and/or follow-up, at the participant's choice.
OBJECTIVE: The standard of care for high grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 to 3 (CIN 2-3) has been the excision of the cervical transformation zone by way of a loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) or cold knife conization (CKC). However, it has been recognized that these procedures can increase the risks for pre-term labor in women who still desire to conceive. Recent studies have shown that medical treatment with Imiquimod, a topical immune response modulator, has significant effects on histological regression of CIN 2-3 when compared with placebo. The investigators propose that treatment with Imiquimod may be preferable offering similar outcomes on histological regression when compared with excision or ablation while potentially avoiding or reducing the number of surgical procedure that places them at risk for future pregnancies.
The purpose of this study is to examine the genetic material called microRNA of three types of specimens from women with breast cancer. The study also seeks to examine the effectiveness of using a new agent called oxytocin to increase the amount of nipple fluid that can be collected during surgery.
