Filter by:Implementation of a curative strategy of treatment in peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric cancer. The goal is to get 1C level of evidence (patient died with "standard" treatment, with this treatment some of them survive) in terms of disease free survival and overall survival. Methodology: prospective, phase II, multicentric in Spain. Recruitment of 50 patients(to have 31 on treatment) in three years. This strategy is based on neoadjuvant systemic plus simultaneous intraperitoneal and intravenous chemotherapy(NIPS),to treat peritoneal disease by bi-directional approach; next step is cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. Once patients are discharged, they will follow a systemic adjuvant chemotherapy protocol.
Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women in Saudi Arabia representing almost the third of cancer diagnosed in Saudi women. Breast cancer in Saudi women is more frequently observed at young age. The data on this observation is either lacking or scares. Furthermore, the pathological and molecular features of breast cancer in young women are not clear. The study will provide important information to the national health care planner about this disease in young women including shedding light on possible genetic risk factors
The study is designed to determine if high doses of intravenous ascorbic acid (vitamin C) can be effective in managing solid tumor diseases. Secondary goals are determination of any palliative effects and improvement of quality of life of patients.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most frequent skin cancer. Uncontrolled growth destroys local anatomic structures. There are various treatment alternatives with different recurrence rates and expenses. After surgical excision, the recurrence rate is in between 3 and 4% and the procedure is relatively expensive. Photodynamic therapy as well as imiquimod 5% are expensive therapies with high recurrence rates, that lack histologic evidence of BCC. Cryosurgery and curettage are inexpensive, although the recurrence rates are higher than after surgical excision. This prospective, randomized trial compares recurrence rates, cosmetic outcome, and surgery-related complications after curettage versus surgical excision in nodular and superficial BCC. About 600 tumors will be included. One half is treated by curettage, the other half by surgical excision. The follow-up period is four years. If the difference between recurrence rates is ≤7% and the cosmetic outcome as well as the surgery-related complications are not worse after curettage, surgical excision must be considered an overtreatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the biological activity of ZD6126 in subjects with newly diagnosed metastatic renal cell carcinoma (stage IV).
