Filter by:This study aims to identify the optimal method to recognize, risk stratify, and provide follow-up care for individuals at risk of hereditary cancer. The study team will conduct a Hybrid Type II comparative effectiveness-implementation trial, with a mixed methods component and process/formative evaluations for stakeholder engagement. The study team will evaluate three methods for identifying and risk-stratifying individuals at risk of hereditary cancer and providing post-risk stratification longitudinal care.
The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of GIA in sharing genetic test results with family members. To determine the utility of GIA in sharing information. To determine the impact of GIA on downstream cascade testing rates.
5 to 10% of cancers are due to the presence of a constitutional genetic alteration. It can be inherited from parents (family form) or by accident, in the first moments of life after fertilization (sporadic form). In both cases, this genetic alteration is constitutional and transmissible to descendants. It is hereditary. When an hereditary early form is suspected, several well-known genes generally involved in genetic predispositions to cancer are found by a technique called " gene panel ". However, this analysis does not always identify the genetic predisposing factors for cancer. New techniques called "high-throughput exome sequencing (SHD-E)", allow more than the analysis of the the gene panel. These analysis allow to identify alterations in other genes that could contribute to the development of cancer. The objective of the Ex²trican study is to show, from patients with early cancer (sporadic or familial form), that this approach to exome sequencing can be effective to identify new genetic risk of cancer, when the first panel analysis of genes is negative.
A case-control study to identify microbiome and genetic differences between healthy subjects and patients with incident Parkinson's disease.
A case-control study to identify microbiome and genetic differences between healthy people and patients with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The MiDiSeq project will enroll 20 unresolved index patients with suspected mitochondrial disease prioritized for genomic analysis.
The GENOME FIRST APPROACH project will enroll patients (n = 450) and their healthy parents with unclear molecular cause of the disease, suspected genetic cause of the disease and the healthy parents of those affected for trio analysis (N in total 1350).
In the present study the investigators will search for new genetic variants relevant for the development of neuropathic pain.
Implant-based reconstruction is currently the most common choice for mastectomy reconstruction. Whatever the choice of mastectomy incision, a scar remains on or near the breast volume. Current techniques involve partial or total coverage of the implant with the pectoralis major muscle, to prevent exposure or infection. The muscle dissection technique applied has functional and cosmetic consequences. In this study, an endoscopic approach will be evaluated. This new surgical technique, using a single-port endoscopic way, will put the scar is in the axillary area, away from the breast. The hypothesis is that this delocalized scar potentially reduces the risk of exposure and allows placement of the implant in the subcutaneous space, with no manipulation of the pectoralis major muscle.
This is a prospective genetically-stratified randomized double-blind event-driven multicentre clinical trial to assess the efficacy of posaconazole-based antifungal prophylaxis allocation strategies for patients with acute myeloid leukemia who receive induction chemotherapy. Allocation strategy based on an invasive mold infection genetic risk will be double-blinded.
