Filter by:The objective of our PILOT study is to evaluate the impact of a controlled (monitored) randomized anesthesia during cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC to oxaliplatin in order to treat adenocarcinomas of colorectal origin. The combination of NOL monitoring, BIS monitoring and continuous hemodynamic monitoring (FloTrac EV1000 system) can improve patient safety by reducing the length of hospital stay by decreasing total hypnotic doses and intraoperative opioids and side effects following anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy and toxicity of anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody plus autologous dendritic cells-cytokine induced killer cell (DC-CIK) immunotherapy combined with hyperthermia in advanced malignant mesothelioma patients.Furthermore,to characterize response to therapy,the investigators intent to explore the predictive biomarker for this regimen.
CALIF study is a monocentric observational study which aim is to analyse the value of adding procalcitonin (PCT, a pre-hormon increased in bacterial infection and septicaemia) in the management of chemo-induced febrile neutropenia occurring in patient with solid tumour. Febrile neutropenia will be managed according to international guidelines. PCT will be dosed at initial presentation. Primary objective is to determine the optimal value of PCT for the detection of septicaemia in low risk (according to MASCC score). The investigators plan also to compare two risk stratification scores: the validated MASCC score and a recently developed score which includes PCT and other more objective items.
The aim of the study was to investigate the immunogenicity and safety of CYD dengue vaccine and Tetanus Toxoid (T), Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid (D) and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed (ap) (Tdap) vaccine when both vaccines were administered concomitantly or sequentially. Primary Objectives: - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the humoral immune response to the Tdap booster dose concomitantly administered with the first dose of CYD dengue vaccine as compared to sequential administration, measured 28 days after Tdap booster dose. - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the humoral immune response to the first dose of CYD dengue vaccine concomitantly administered with Tdap as compared to sequential administration, measured 28 days after the first dose of CYD dengue vaccine. Secondary Objectives: - To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the humoral immune response of 3 doses of CYD dengue vaccine with the first dose concomitantly administered with Tdap as compared to sequential administration, measured 28 days after the third dose of CYD dengue vaccine. - To describe the humoral immune response at baseline and 28 days after the first and third doses of CYD dengue vaccine, in each and any group. - To describe the humoral immune response of Tdap vaccine at baseline and 28 days after concomitant administration with the first dose of CYD dengue vaccine as compared to the sequential administration, in each and any group. - To describe the safety of the CYD dengue vaccine and of the Tdap booster dose after each and any injection in each group.
The standard treatment of unresectable liver metastasis in gastrointestinal tract cancer is chemotherapy, but considerable portion of the patients progressed and most of the liver is converted to metastatic tumor lesions. Significant quality of life decrement was detected in those patients, especially in patients suffered severe symptoms Several studies reported that whole liver RT (WLRT) can be used effectively to control severe symptoms from unresectable liver metastasis in gastrointestinal tract cancer patients. However, it is well known fact that the liver is a very sensitive to RT. Despite symptom palliation is obtained after 20 to 30 Gy RT but only in small subset of patients get local control. In this aspect, the combined with radiosensitizer with WLRT is considered to enhance RT effect to palliate symptom and control local tumor progression, and increase the quality of life ultimately. It is reported that hyperthermia is considered as the most valuable radiosensitizer in cancer treatment, theoretically. Based on those studies, we start this prospective study to investigate the effect of combination treatment of WLRT and hyperthermia on quality of life in the patients with unresectable chemoresistant liver metastasis from gastrointestinal tract cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of sauna use on polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in the blood of healthy human adults, as well as to assess safety, feasibility, and tolerability, and effects on quality of life and wellness. We hope to determine if there is a link between lower PCB levels in blood and sauna use.
Dantrolene is used to prevent hyperthermia in intensive care patients suffering from subarachnoidal hemorrhage.
