Filter by:The Ezra Faster Scan study uses non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology that can "visually" detect early and late-stage cancer, and other pathologies. MRIs use a magnetic field and radio waves to create a 3-dimensional (3D) image of an individual's body without using ionizing radiation. The purpose of this research is to decrease the amount of time required by an individual to complete an early cancer screening comprehensive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, such as the Ezra Full Body MRI imaging scan. If the time required to conduct a comprehensive scan is reduced, the cost of the scan may also decrease. By decreasing consumer costs and time, more individuals may be able to afford MRI-based early cancer screening technology. Participants in this study will undergo a minimum 30-minute MRI session. These sessions will be used to evaluate new MRI "instructions" that allow for a faster MRI scan time. The images will also be used to develop mathematical models or machine learning tools that allow images to be enhanced. By enhancing images using machine learning, they may be restored to a quality typically observed in MRI sessions with longer scan (acquisition) times.

Caloric restriction may alter the response to chemotherapy induced stress response and enhance its antitumor effect. This study intends to use an intermitted caloric restriction protocol with alternate days before the chemotherapy administration to enhance the cytotoxic effect generated by standard treatment of cancer.
The main idea of this study is that a low protein diet may alter the environment surrounding the tumor, enhancing the body's immune response leading to greater anticancer effects of treatment. This study intends to use a low-protein diet as a tool to enhance the immune response generated by immune check point inhibitor treatments.
The objective of this study is to show the interest of setting up a drug vigilance card in Oncology in order to reinforce patient safety, develop compliance and avoid drug interactions when the patient consults town professionals or other specialists.
