Filter by:This is a single-center, single-arm ，open-label ，dose escalation and dose extension study. In this study we plan to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CD70-targeting UCAR-T cells in the treatment of CD70-positive refractory or relapsed solid tumors, and obtain recommended doses and infusion patterns.
This study aims to test the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of two different strategies of home-delivered HPV self-sampling, in comparison to the standard of care strategy, to increase adherence to cervical cancer screening. An experimental and population-based study will be implemented at three primary healthcare centers located in the Western Porto region: Cedofeita, Garcia de Orta, and Prelada. Eligible women will be randomized into a control group or an intervention group. The control group will correspond to the standard of care (invitation to screening in a clinical setting). The intervention group will be randomized into two subgroups: 1) a "directly mailed" group that will receive a self-sampling kit at their home addresses by post; 2) an "opt-in" group that will receive an invitation at home asking if they want to receive a self-sampling kit, with a pre-paid envelope to return the answer to this question. Women who answer "yes" will receive the self-sampling kit at their home addresses by post. Self-sampling samples will be subjected to HPV genotyping. In parallel, high-risk HPV positive women will be called in by their family doctors to undergo screening in a clinical setting so that they can continue their clinical follow-up in the conventional pathway.
Cancer patients are burdened by an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which has a significant impact on morbidity and mortality. Existing Risk Prediction Models (RPMs), including the widely accepted Khorana Risk Score (KRS), have some limitations when used in certain tumor site populations, such as gynecological cancers. Notably, gynecological patients exhibit a variable risk of VTE based on their specific tumor sites, with ovarian cancer representing the highest risk. Moreover, currently available RPMs lack validation in a broad gynecological population and may fail to effectively stratify VTE risk. GynCAT is a prospective cohort study that will be conducted on female patients with gynecologic malignancies scheduled for systemic antineoplastic treatment. During the screening phase, symptomatic VTE will be excluded, and KRS will be assessed. Pharmacological thromboprophylaxis will be considered and prescribed at clinical judgement, for patients with a KRS score of 3 or higher. Clinical, hematological, biochemical, coagulation, and genetic variables will be collected. Follow-up will last for the entire duration of the antineoplastic treatment line, and VTE events, bleeding events, and mortality will be recorded. The primary objective is the development and validation of an RPM for VTE in gynecologic cancer patients undergoing systemic antineoplastic treatment. Secondary objectives are evaluation of the predictive value of the identified model, comparing it with existing general oncology RPMs; assessment of its performance in predicting mortality; evaluation of VTE incidence in patients with KRS≥3 receiving thromboprophylaxis; identification of risk factors for bleeding in this patient population. The sample size calculation is based on an estimated VTE incidence of 5% over a mean follow-up of 12 months. Hence, a sample size of at least 1,200 patients in the derivation cohort is considered sufficient for the determination of a risk prediction model incorporating up to six predictor variables. A split-sample method will be used, with two-thirds of the study participants randomly assigned to the model derivation cohort (n=1,200) and one-third (n=600) to an independent validation cohort. The total number of patients recruited in the study will thus be of 1,800. A competing risk survival analysis with Fine & Gray model will be used to study the association between prognostic variables and VTE occurrence, considering death as a competitive risk. The RPM will be identified through a bootstrap approach to reduce the risk of overfitting. Discrimination power of the RPM will be assessed using time-dependent Receiving Operating Characteristic curve, and model calibration will be evaluated graphically and with the calculation of relative calibration slopes. In conclusion, this prospective cohort study aims to overcome the limitations of current RPMs in gynecologic cancer patients, improving the accuracy of VTE risk stratification in this population.
This study investigates the pharmacokinetics of Artesunate (AS) and dihydroartemisinin (DHA), the active metabolite of Artesunate, following intravaginal use at the dosing and frequency being studied for cervical precancer treatment. A secondary objective is to investigate safety among study participants.
Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancer types affecting women in our country and in the world and causing morbidity. However, the availability of a vaccine for cervical cancer, preventable risk factors and early diagnosis tests offer a unique opportunity to reduce the rate of cervical cancer. In this context, there are studies showing that the practices developed by policies differ and that the classical health approach is insufficient. The effectiveness of the trainings given may vary according to time, place, trainer and personal characteristics of the individual. At the same time, in order to improve the attitudes and behaviours of individuals in terms of prevention and early diagnosis of cervical cancer, awareness of individuals about cervical cancer should be increased. In this way, women will have a say about their own health and their conscious participation in health care services will be realised. Therefore, the aim of this project is to apply cervical cancer awareness training to women and to examine its effect on women's cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis behaviours. Original value; The fact that there is no mobile application developed for cervical cancer in Turkey reveals the national value of the research. In addition, the mobile application has international unique value as it is the first mobile application structured to provide awareness on cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis behaviours. The project method was planned for the development and implementation of the mobile application programme. The research design will be a randomised controlled study. The 120 women who meet the inclusion criteria and who apply to more than one family health centre will be randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. The effect of the mobile application programme on women's attitudes and behaviours towards cervical cancer prevention and early diagnosis will be evaluated at the 6th and 12th weeks. In the evaluation of the data, t-test for independent groups, anova and chi-square tests will be used to measure the effect of the intervention. Widespread effect; In this way, it is planned to reduce the time spent by professionals for care-related activities, to strengthen time management, to provide advantages and improvements in the performance of nurses in patient care management by using technological resources in the health care provided.
This study hypothesizes that patients who persist with cell-free human papillomavirus deoxyribonucleic acid (cfHPV-DNA) plasma expression at the end of standard treatment, can derive the benefit of using adjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer (CC). After standard treatment based on concomitant chemoradiotherapy regime, a qualitative and quantitative research of cfHPV-DNA in plasma of patients will be conducted. Those with a negative qualitative research result will leave the study. Patients who have positive research for plasma 16/18 cfHPV-DNA at the end of chemoradiotherapy treatment will be randomized to receive two additional cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy or observation. Patients will be followed with conduction of computed tomography (CT) scan of the thorax and magnetic resonance (MRI) of abdomen and pelvis and clinical and gynecological examination at every four months.
Advanced cervical cancer patients treated with standard of care (SOC) chemoradiation plus glutaminase inhibition with telaglenastat (CB-839) will have increased progression-free survival (PFS) compared to historical rates for patients receiving SOC chemoradiation alone.
This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of the motivational interviewing technique applied to menopausal women on their participation in breast and cervical cancer screenings. This is a randomized controlled intervention study in which the study sample will consist of 120 menopausal women, who visit the health care centers in the city of Kutahya. There will be one intervention group with a total of 60 participants and a control group with the same number of participants. The intervention group will have motivational interviews whereas the control group participants will follow the normal protocols.
