Filter by:Based on different subtypes, subjects will be placed in one of three treatment groups to explore individual efficacy and safety of various treatment regimen.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the outcome of patients with immune checkpoint inhibitor-mediated diarrhea/colitis (IMC) treated with faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in a randomised, placebo-controlled trial. The aim of the present study is to assess the feasibility, pilot efficacy, and safety of FMT for patients with IMC. Participants will be treated two times with capsule FMT or placebo capsules in a 1:1 ratio. The intervention treatment will be an add-on to the patients' standard treatment for IMC. Researchers will compare the FMT-treated group to the placebo-treated group to see if FMT promotes remission of IMC.
The goal of this study is to comprehensively map intra and inter tumor heterogeneity of ccRCC in VHL patients through the use of imaging, molecular biology and genomics techniques.
The purpose of this study is to test an empirically supported psychotherapeutic intervention, Managing Cancer and Living Meaningfully (CALM), compared to treatment as usual (TAU) in those with malignant brain cancer diagnoses.
Observational study on relapse occurrence and on the quality of life in patients who underwent nephroureterectomy surgery
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common malignant tumor in the kidney with a high mortality rate. Traditional imaging techniques are limited in capturing the internal heterogeneity of the tumor. Radiomics provides internal features of lesions for precise diagnosis, prognosis prediction, and personalized treatment planning. Early and accurate diagnosis of renal tumors is crucial, but it's challenging due to morphological and pathological overlap between benign and malignant lesions. The accurate diagnosis of RCC, especially for small tumors, remains a significant challenge. Recent studies have shown a relationship between body composition, obesity, and renal tumors. Common indicators like body weight and BMI fail to reflect body composition accurately. Research on the role of body composition, including adipose tissue, in tumor pathology could improve clinical diagnosis and treatment planning.
Background: Rare tumors of the genitourinary (GU) tract can appear in the kidney, bladder, ureters, and penis. Rare tumors are difficult to study because there are not enough people to conduct large trials for new treatments. Two drugs-sacituzumab govitecan (SG) and atezolizumab-are each approved to treat other cancers. Researchers want to find out if the two drugs used together can help people with GU. Objective: To test SG, either alone or combined with atezolizumab, in people with rare GU tumors. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years and older with rare GU tumors. These may include small cell carcinoma of the bladder; squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder; primary adenocarcinoma of the bladder; renal medullary carcinoma; or squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have tests of heart function. They will have imaging scans. They may need a biopsy: A small needle will be used to remove a sample of tissue from the tumor. Both SG and atezolizumab are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. All participants will receive SG on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day treatment cycle. Some participants will also receive atezolizumab on day 1 of each cycle. Blood and urine tests, imaging scans, and other exams will be repeated during study visits. Treatment may continue for up to 5 years. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 more years.
The aim of this study was to establish and optimize the [18F]RCCB6 and [68Ga]Ga-NOTA-RCCB6 PET/CT imaging method, and its physiological and pathological distribution characteristics, on the basis of which the diagnostic efficacy of the above imaging agents in renal cancer (especially clear cell renal cell carcinoma) and lymphoma was evaluated.
The aim of this observational study is to gather pre and post surgery clinical data belonging to patients who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy and to evaluate the impact of the surgery on the quality of life of the patients, as well as possible relapses within a 10 year period.
The overall aim of this observational study is to confirm that circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detected in plasma and or urine after intended curative treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can be applied in clinical practice as a marker of subclinical residual disease and risk of recurrence.
