This is a randomized control trial aimed to decreased radiation-induced vaginal stenosis in patients with endometrial or cervical cancer treated with post-operative external beam radiation therapy with or without brachytherapy. The intervention is an enhanced vaginal dilator model, including a silicone band placed at the desired depth of dilator insertion. The new model will be compared against the traditional vaginal dilator model used as our institutional standard of care. We hypothesize the enhanced model will improve adherence, correct use and efficacy of vaginal dilator use.
The trial will evaluate whether human papillomavirus (HPV) self-sampling may increase cervical cancer screening attendance among under-screened women in Norway, how different ways of offering self-sampling and follow-up may affect attendance, and whether self-sampling may reduce inequities in attendance.
To evaluate the effects of preoperative oral carbohydrate on postoperative insulin resistance and tumor immunity in cervical cancer patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Despite the existence of an effective screening test (pap smear), cervical cancer is, every year in France, the cause of more than 3,000 new cases and 1,100 deaths. But, in France, 4 in 10 women are not screened or not often enough (nearly 7 millions women). It is therefore necessary to develop new strategies to reach these women. The etiological factor of this cancer is persistent infection with High-Risk Human PapillomaVirus (HR-HPV). Thereby, HPV-based tests could be alternative screening tests. Vaginal self-sampling with HR-HPV test is simpler and less intrusive than the pap smear. It has been shown that sending vaginal self-sampling kit (with HPV test) to unscreened women's home is a powerful means to increase the participation rate of cervical cancer screening. It seems interesting to explore methods to increase the efficiency of this strategy by optimizing the ratio of the number of kits used compared to the number of kits sent. Two approaches will be tested: a system "available on request" of the kit and / or the addition of an SMS (Short Message Service) reminder.
The goal of this study is to determine the effects of message framing (gain vs. loss) on African American parents' acceptance of the HPV vaccine and how such effects are moderated by parents' salient beliefs prior to message exposure. Participants are randomized into gain and loss conditions in which they view either gain-framed or loss-framed HPV vaccination messages. Key outcome variables include parents' attitudes and intentions toward vaccinating their children against HPV.
Nearly all cervical cancers are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), which can be detected in cancer tissue by laboratory tests. There is evidence that the virus can also be detected from a blood sample to monitor the effects of treatment. Previous studies have shown that a special test called 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET-CT) at 3 months after treatment may predict survival in cervical cancer. The purpose of this study is to see how well the FDG-PET Scan and blood tests for HPV can detect leftover cervical cancer cells after treatment. This study is not a particular form of treatment and patients will receive standard of care treatment.
If no metastases are observed, patients will start a short protocol of four courses of weekly neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (12 weeks). If response to chemotherapy results in a tumor of less than 2 cm, cervical conisation will be performed.
This study is an open, multi-dose, dose escalation and cohort expansion, phase Ⅰ study to investigate the safety, tolerability, efficiency, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity of SG001 in subjects with advanced tumours.
This is an expanded access study involving an investigational product named Vigil. Vigil is considered immunotherapy. Patients who participated in another clinical trial sponsored by Gradalis, and had Vigil made from their tumor tissue removed from a standard operation, however failed the criteria to enroll in the other clinical trial to receive Vigil are eligible to screen for this expanded access trial to receive the Vigil made from their cancer cells. In this study, eligible participants will receive intradermal (under the skin) injections of Vigil, once every 4 weeks (28 days) for 1-12 doses, depending on the number of doses that was made from the cancer cells and if the participant is clinically stable. During the treatment portion of the study, in addition to receiving Vigil injections, participants will also have a physical exam, blood collection for routine and research tests, and assessment of medications, adverse events, and performance status information will be collected. Radiological tumor assessments will be performed every 3 months from Cycle 1. Once treatment ends, participants will continue to be seen in the clinic every 3 months for similar assessments until disease progression occurs. After disease progression, participants will be contacted by phone 4 times a year to determine post study treatment and survival status information.
