Filter by:At present, the families of cancer patients are lack knowledge and experience of nutritional care after discharge. As a result, cancer patients often suffer from low nutritional status after being discharged from the hospital.
Monocentric, two-level factorial, parallel-arm, pilot randomized clinical trial, conducted comparing patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with ICA for right colon cancer in a single unit of a teaching hospital: Minimally Invasive Surgery Unit, Department of Surgical Sciences, Policlinico Tor Vergata, Rome, Italy.
This study will evaluate safety, tolerability, drug levels, molecular effects and clinical activity of MRTX849 (adagrasib) in combination with BI 1701963 in patients with advanced solid tumors that have a KRAS G12C mutation.
This comparative effectiveness and descriptive retrospective cohort study will evaluate safety and effectiveness outcomes among commercially insured adults who received a granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) biosimilar or originator product during the first cycle of clinical guideline-indicated intermediate or high febrile neutropenia risk chemotherapy.
To determine whether exercise and nutrition prehabilitation improves patient outcomes after cancer surgery
seeking to identify risk factors leading to mortality in obstructed left cancer colon
As cancer survival rates have been increased due to technological developments and early detection strategies, there has been been a growing need to assess the effect of long-term complications and adverse effects upon patients' functionality and quality of life. Chemotherapy, which is accepted to be the body of systemic adjuvant therapy is attributed to long-term survival, yet some side effects such as sarcopenia, loss of muscle strength and functional capacity, fatigue, and sensory disturbances due to the neurotoxic effects have been well known. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a condition that is characterized by main loss of cutaneous sensation especially in the distal part of the extremities. CIPN affects approximately 30-40% of patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Loss of sensation in distal sides of upper and lower extremities may cause not only deterioration of fine hand skills but also loss of balance and thereby one's mobility and independence are detrimentally affected. Thus, this study is aimed to assess CIPN in patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy in a longitudinal design by assessing the cutaneous function of the sensory nerves and related effect of motor function.
This early phase I trial tests the use of a radioactive tracer (a drug that is visible during an imaging test) known as 18F-FMAU, for imaging with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with brain cancer or cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). A PET/CT scan is an imaging test that uses a small amount of radioactive tracer (given through the vein) to take detailed pictures of areas inside the body where the tracer is taken up. 18F-FMAU may also help find the cancer and how far the disease has spread. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of imaging test used to diagnose brain tumors. 18F-FMAU PET/CT in addition to MRI may make the finding and diagnosing of brain tumor easier.
It is Randomized Controlled Trial, in which investigators will estimate the impact of the use of immunonutrition support compared to standard nutritional support in the preoperative period in patients with colorectal cancer.
There are many factors involved in outlining the patient's profile and in defining which factors can be configured as risks related to the surgical act; for the modern surgeon it is no longer possible to identify the patient at risk of complications based on the mere age or some comorbidities historically considered more influential on the surgical outcome, but each patient must be evaluated in its entirety including age, fragility, comorbidity, state nutritional and sarcopenia and, if necessary, implementing preoperative therapeutic strategies aimed at minimizing the impact of some of these factors on the outcome of surgery. Our study aimed at creating, if possible, an "identikit" of the patient who is more likely to have serious postoperative complications; in order to improve the therapeutic decision and the approach to patients with severe surgical risk since choosing the right treatment for the right patient is essential to obtain a good result.
