Filter by:Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate FFNP PET/MRI's utility for predicting response to Levonorgestrel-releasing Intrauterine Device (LR-IUD) hormonal therapy for Complex Atypical hyperplasia (CAH) and Endometrial Cancer (EC). Participants: Eight women with histologically confirmed CAH or Grade 1 EC who have planned treatment with LR-IUD will be recruited.. Procedures (methods): The is a prospective, single arm, pilot study of 8 participants who will receive one FFNP PET/MRI scan. Medical records will be followed for 6 months.
Many patients may face long-term urinary side effects following stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), including increased urinary frequency, dysuria, and nocturia. The investigator hypothesizes that Urolift, which represents a novel minimally invasive therapy, may reduce acute and long-term urinary toxicity and side effects of radiation therapy (SBRT).
The Rezum system is an ablative procedure for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). One of the limitations of the technology is the need for post-operative catheterization up to 5 days. The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of employing Catheterless Rezum post-operatively in patients with normal or strong bladder contractility. Upon a positive outcome of interim analysis, the effectiveness of Catheterless Rezum will be assessed at five sites for the multicenter phase.
In this pilot study, the investigator team aims to evaluate whether standardized prone positioning compared to usual positioning improves moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) rates as assessed at 36 weeks post conceptional age in very low birth weight preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of S-nitrosylation therapy for the treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency tend to have elevated circulating levels of androgens, which can accelerate skeletal maturation and adversely impact adult height. Additionally, these children require supraphysiologic doses of hydrocortisone to suppress secretion of adrenal androgen precursors, and this treatment can retard linear growth. This study seeks to use oral abiraterone acetate (Zytiga)as an adjunct to approved CAH therapy (oral hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone) for pre-pubescent children with classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency in order to reduce daily requirement of hydrocortisone. In this Phase 1 study, the investigators will determine the minimum effective dose of abiraterone acetate that normalizes androstenedione levels during the 7-day Treatment Period.
Can vibrational spectroscopy be used to accurately assess vulval skin conditions? Vulval skin disorders are common and the diagnosis of these conditions can be difficult. Reliable discrimination between benign vulval skin conditions, precancerous conditions or vulval cancer often requires tissue biopsies. In addition the monitoring of patients with vulval disease at risk cancerous change is currently limited to visual assessment often supplemented by multiple invasive tissue biopsies. There are currently no established non invasive tests available for the diagnosis of vulval skin diseases. The vibrational spectroscopic techniques of Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy are non invasive diagnostic tools that use the interaction of light within tissues to identify the chemical composition of different tissues. The use of these tools may reduce the need for invasive biopsies to diagnose and monitor women with vulval skin disease. The aim of this project is to explore the use of vibrational spectroscopic techniques in the diagnosis of vulval skin disease. This will be achieved by performing vibrational spectroscopy on samples of tissue previously taken from women with vulval skin disease treated at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The results of the spectroscopy will be compared with the routine tests and the accuracy of spectroscopy determined.
