This is a retrospective observational cohort study. The clinical, pathological and treatment data of participants identified with adrenocortical carcinoma from the year 2000 onwards will be evaluated. Participants recruited for this study will be identified at the participating sites.
Study Objective: To determine the efficacy of upfront immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with deferred cytoreductive nephrectomy in treating metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Primary Endpoint: Pathological Major Response (MPR), defined as the percentage of residual tumor cells <10% in the primary tumor after nephrectomy. Study Design: Population: Participants meeting the diagnostic criteria with biopsy-proven clear cell renal cell carcinoma, IMDC score ≤3, or ≤5 metastatic lesions involving ≤3 organs. Sample Size: 20 participants. Patient Grouping: Non-randomized. Interventions: Eligible participants will receive upfront treatment with a combination of Axitinib and Toripalimab for 4 cycles. After 2 cycles of treatment, radiological assessment will be conducted using RECIST 1.1 criteria. If disease progression is observed, the clinical trial will be terminated, and second-line treatment will be initiated according to guidelines. If disease progression is not observed, treatment will continue for 2 additional cycles followed by repeat radiological assessment before undergoing surgery.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the treatment effectiveness of physician's choice of chemotherapy and the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapy in patients with relapsed/refractory ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), and compare the treatment response with the phase II, single-arm clinical trial INOVA to investigate the efficacy of combinational therapy of sintilimab plus bevacizumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the efficacy of physician's choice of chemotherapy in relapsed/refractory OCCC patients in the real world? - Is ICI-based therapy more effective than physician's choice of chemotherapy in real-world for relapsed/refractory OCCC patients? - Dose the combinational regimens of sintilimab plus bevacizumab in Sintilimab Plus Bevacizumab in Recurrent/Persistent Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma (INOVA) trial more effective than physician's choice of chemotherapy? Participants will be respectively retrieved and extracted de-identified, longitudinal electronic health records (EHR)-derived data.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of cancer and entails approximately 80% of all cutaneous malignancies. This locally destructive neoplasm is commonly diagnosed by punch biopsy which is considered painful, causes procedural scarring and carries a small risk of infection and re-bleeding associated with invasive procedures. Moreover, awaiting the results of the subsequent histopathological examination causes treatment delay and can be stressful for the patient. The drawbacks of biopsy could be overcome by optical coherence tomography (OCT), a non-invasive diagnostic modality that may replace biopsy in up to 66% of patients. However, OCT assessors are scarce which hinders the implementation of OCT. This problem may be addressed by teledermatology in which remote OCT assessment by an assessor facilitates simultaneous assessment for multiple clinics. Remote OCT assessment withholds the OCT assessor from visually inspecting the lesion. But the effect of visual inspection on the diagnostic accuracy remains unknown and the question arises whether visual inspection is necessary for accurate OCT assessment. In this diagnostic case-control study we will determine whether distant OCT assessment without visual information on the lesion is non-inferior to distant OCT assessment with clinical and dermoscopic photographs (CDP-OCT).
This is a comparative, randomized, prospective, multicenter clinical investigation aimed at evaluating the efficiency and economic impact of LC-OCT (Line-field Confocal Optical Coherence Tomography) for the diagnosis and management of basal cell carcinomas.
This is a single institution phase II randomized study evaluating the potential benefits of a supplement, tart cherry juice at high- versus low-doses, to prevent taxane induced peripheral neuropathy in breast and ovarian cancer patients undergoing paclitaxel chemotherapy. Eligible participants enrolled onto the study will be block randomized in a 1:1 allocation to either the tart cherry juice high-dose group (Arm 1) or the tart cherry juice low-dose group (Arm 2).
This phase II trial tests how well the combination of futibatinib and durvalumab given before cystectomy works in treating patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who are ineligible for cisplatin-based therapy. Cisplatin-based therapy is the standard of care for patients with MIBC. However, many patients cannot receive standard therapy due to poor renal function, peripheral neuropathy, poor functional status, or clinically significant heart failure. Futibatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radical cystectomy is a surgery to remove all of the bladder as well as nearby tissues and organs. Giving futibatinib in combination with durvalumab before surgery may be an effective treatment option for patients with MIBC who are ineligible for cisplatin-based therapy.
This study is an observational cohort study targeting patients with low-risk Papillary thyroid cancer who opted for active surveillance or immediate surgery based on a sufficient understanding of the treatment options. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate progression free survival of the patients with low-risk Papillary thyroid cancer who choose active surveillance, in other words, to observe the natural course of low-risk Papillary thyroid cancer.
This phase II trial tests how well stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) works in treating patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER +) breast cancer that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and has limited disease progression (oligoprogression). Currently, the standard of care for breast cancer patients with oligoprogressive disease is to change systemic therapy when progression occurs. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. SBRT is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position a patient and precisely deliver radiation to tumors in the body (except the brain). The total dose of radiation is divided into smaller doses (fractions) given over several days. This type of radiation therapy helps spare normal tissue and has been shown to improve survival. SBRT may kill more tumor cells and allow patients with oligoprogressive ER + metastatic breast cancer to continue taking current systemic treatment. This trial also tests how well ER targeted positron emission tomography (PET)/ computed tomography (CT) imaging, using FES, works in identifying progressive disease in patients with ER + metastatic breast cancer. FES, a radiolabeled substance, binds to estrogen receptors and gives off radiation that can be detected by a PET scan. The PET scan, an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, FES, forms an image that shows where tumor cells with estrogen receptors can be found in the body. CT images use x-rays to provide an exact outline of organs. FES PET/CT may improve identification of progressive disease in patients with ER + metastatic breast cancer.
