Filter by:This is a multicenter, interventional, historico-prospective cohort pilot study aimed at specifying the phenotype of subjects carrying a constitutional familial DDX41 mutation, with a view to eventually publishing oncogenetic recommendations for carriers of this mutation. The main objective of the LUCID project is to assess the cumulative risk of hematological diseases (Myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML) or cytopenia) as a function of age in DDX41 germline mutation carriers. This study will be carried out in two stages: Stage 1: Inclusion of index cases in an oncogenetic consultation (salivary test, completion of an health self-questionnaire and collection of contact details for the related cases). Stage 2: Proposition of participation to family members, by correspondence, and determination of carrier or non-carrier status of the constitutional familial DDX41 mutation (based on a salivary test). A maximum of 210 index case patients and 700 family member will be included in this study.
This is a Phase II study to determine the rate of stabilization or disease improvement from investigational decitabine/cedazuridine (INQOVI) treatment in subjects with BRCA1-Associated Protein-1 (BAP1) Cancer Predisposition Syndrome (CPDS) and subclinical, early-stage mesothelioma. Progression-free survival (PFS) will also be determined for treated subjects, and the treatment safety (toxicity) evaluated.

As of 2019, the CA-SFM (Comité de l'Antibiogramme de la Société Française de Microbiologie) recommends that the letter "I" or the term "intermediate" on antibiotic antibiograms. Instead, it is recommended that the term "sensible à forte posologie" or "SFP". These recommendations have been in place since 21/01/2022 at Nancy University Hospital. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the bacterium most affected by this change, as it has a high proportion of "high dosage" antibiotics. Staphylococcus aureus is the most widely isolated bacterium, and also impacted by the change in antibiotic susceptibility testing. The aim of this change in recommendations is to guarantee the efficacy of the proposed molecules. Main objective Evaluate the impact of the change in antibiogram recommendations in samples positive for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus on antibiotic therapy (prescribed dosage) Secondary objectives - Evaluate the impact of changing the way antibiograms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus on antibiotic therapy (molecule prescribed). - Evaluate the impact of changing the way antibiograms on antibiotic therapy (molecule and dosage prescribed), depending on the strain identified (Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Staphylococcus aureus). - Describe the impact of changing antibiograms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus on antibiotic therapy (molecule and dosage prescribed) by department.
Testing children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYA) for a genetic risk for cancer can help with early prevention and detection of cancers through regular follow-ups and medical care. After receiving genetic test results, CAYA may not accurately understand what their results mean, and parents are often unsure about talking with their CAYA about their genetic risk for cancer. By understanding how parents communicate with their CAYA, the investigators can improve future genetic education to reduce cancer risk. Primary Objectives: - Identify qualities of parent-CAYA (child, adolescent, and young adults) communication about CAYAs' genomic cancer risk, and their association with CAYAs' psychosocial and prevention outcomes. - Examine the association between sociodemographic, cancer-related, and psychosocial factors and parent-CAYA communication regarding CAYAs' genomic risk for cancer. - Identify barriers and facilitators of parent-CAYA communication regarding CAYAs' genomic risk for cancer.
This research is being done to develop the electronic platform Nest for young adults (ages 18-39) who have had prior cancer genetic testing. The platform will give patients and their clinicians access to continuously updated information about both pathogenic variants and variants of uncertain significance (VUS). The name of the intervention used in this research study is: Nest portal (electronic platform for patients and clinicians)
Enterococci are Gram-positive facultative anaerobic cocci arranged in short and medium chains. Enterococci reside in the gastrointestinal tract and usually function commensally with humans. They can, however, cause several infections, such as urinary tract infections (UTIs), intra-abdominal infection, bacteremia, or endocarditis. Among many species identified, E. faecalis and E. faecium are the most common species capable of causing infection and posing a threat of antimicrobial resistance, with E. faecalis accounting for the majority of infections.
This is a prospective observational multi-center pilot study of germline testing for participants receiving care at University of California participating locations with a new or existing diagnosis of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (PanNEN). This protocol is an extension of existing Genetic Testing Station efforts at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF)
Develop and evaluate acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of digital care plan and accompanying text message reminders for children and adolescents with a known Cancer Predisposition Syndromes (CPS).
Purpose: Examination of microangiopathic changes that may develop after flow-directed stenting of intracranial aneurysms with susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), and vessel wall imaging (VWI) of vessel wall inflammation that may be associated with stenosis in the stented vessel and rupture of the aneurysm. Methods: SWI and VWI examinations will be performed before and after treatment in patients who are planned for flow-directing aneurysm treatment. Clinical follow-up of the cases will be performed during the first 3 months post-procedure. At the end of the 3rd month, SAG and DDG findings related to and unrelated to intracranial hemorrhage will be detected by control imaging.
