Filter by:The purpose of this study is to gather information on how safe the hyperthermia treatment delivered via the Exatherm-TBH (the device that will heat your blood and deliver it back to you), added to the best supportive care is to patients who have advanced persistent or recurrent, unresectable Cancer.
Randomized study to investigate the efficacy of deep regional hyperthermia in patients with anal carcinoma treated by standard radiochemotherapy with MMC and 5-FU.
The current trial is evaluating the impact of deep regional hyperthermia on the pathological complete response rate in locally advanced rectal cancer in the context of preoperative 5FU based radiochemotherapy.
To determine treatment response to surgical debulking and intra-operative Intraperitoneal Hyperthermic Chemotherapy (IPHC) in patients with the following malignancies: Gynecologic cancers (ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube, and uterine/cervical cancers). Mesotheliomas. GI cancers (Gallbladder, liver, small intestine, pancreas, stomach, colon, appendix). To monitor the toxicities and complications of this treatment regimen. To measure treatment related QOL changes after IPHC.
The primary objective of the proposed study is to determine the use of a wireless method to monitor and record core body temperature during a Whole Body Hyperthermia treatment, compared to an indwelling rectal thermometer. This protocol is intended to study the differences between a rectal temperature probe and an approved wireless and indigestible thermometer during a WBH session. The current standard in monitoring core body temperature is the usage of an indwelling rectal thermometer. Many patients and potential study subjects, however, decline receiving the treatment, due to the discomfort of using this measuring method and a wireless measuring device would open the possibility for those patients to receive a treatment. The primary endpoint for example of a treatment for MDD is currently defined with reaching a rectal temperature of 38.5 C. However, due to the proximity of the probe to the body's surface, the core body temperature will vary from the rectal temperature and the comparison between the two methods with a validation of the wireless device is necessary. The investigators will monitor subject's physiological outcome from a single Whole Body Hyperthermia treatment in an open fashion (no placebo/control condition). This study will include safety assessments 7 days several days prior to or same day as the WBH, and include follow-up assessments 1 day and 1 week later.
The objective of this extension protocol is to collect safety data (serious and non-serious adverse events) and to provide continuous canakinumab to patients in France who completed study CACZ885G2301E1(NCT00891046), CACZ885G2306 (NCT02296424) or CACZ885N2301 (NCT02059291) until a decision regarding reimbursement in France is effective for canakinumab (Ilaris®) in these indications.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to Investigate whether the administration of HIPEC with Cisplatin (75 milligrams per square meter of body surface) after surgical cytoreduction in women with ovarian, tubal or primary peritoneal carcinoma increased disease-free survival period compared with patients without HIPEC treatment.
Using an established model of human typhoid infection, whereby healthy adults are deliberately exposed to typhoid-causing bacteria, the investigators will determine how effective a new typhoid conjugate vaccine (Vi-TCV) is in preventing infection. The new typhoid vaccine will be compared with a control vaccine (meningococcal ACWY). The protective effect of a currently used typhoid polysaccharide vaccine (Vi-PS) will also be studied and compared with the control vaccine using this model of typhoid infection. A second component of this study will involve vaccinating 15-20 participants with Vi-PS. Serum will be obtained prior to vaccination and 4-6 weeks after vaccination. The post-vaccination serum will be pooled and used to create an anti-Vi IgG serum standard.
In a multi-center open-label cluster-randomized controlled parallel-group multiple crossover non-inferiority trial in children and adolescents up to 20 years diagnosed with cancer requiring chemotherapy, primarily the safety, and secondarily the efficacy and other endpoints, of a high (39.0°C) versus low (38.5°C) temperature limit defining fever (TLDF) for the diagnosis of fever in chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (FN) is studied. Safety is assessed by the rate of safety relevant events per chemotherapy exposure time, a composite endpoint including serious medical complications and bacteremia during FN. Patients are repeatedly randomized (cluster: study site) to the high or the low TLDF every month, resulting in possible multiple crossovers in one patient. The high TLDF is declared not to be inferior regarding safety compared to the low TLDF if non-inferiority of the rate ratio of safety relevant events is proven, with a single-sided non-inferiority margin of 1.33, applying mixed Poisson regression.
Study goal - to describe pediatric patients with febrile disease that administered to the emergency department (ED) of hillel-yaffe hospital, according to arrival diagnosis, ED diagnosis, given therapy, and therapy concordance with the guidelines and final diagnosis. This research will describe cases that arrived to the hospital with acute febrile disease (up to seven days of fever), the antibiotic treatment given in the community according to the anamnesis and the community physician letter, therapy concordance with the guidelines, the ED diagnosis and changes in therapy, and final diagnosis according to extended microbiological examinations and panel of infectious disease specialists.
