Filter by:Patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be randomized 1:1 into Cohort A (n ≈ 177) or Cohort BC (n ≈ 177). Cohort A is the control: patients receive combination chemotherapy with FOLFOX plus anti-EGFR therapy (panitumumab or cetuximab) based on RAS/BRAF wild-type data, according to clinical guidelines. The BC cohort begins FOLFOX chemotherapy and simultaneously undergoes extensive molecular genetic profiling. Further, the BC cohort, depending on the profile, is divided into cohort B - patients without changes in alternative oncogenes, and cohort C - with changes in alternative oncogenes. The expected cohort ratio is 3:1 (~120 and ~40 patients). Cohort B begins to receive anti-EGFR therapy in addition to chemotherapy, and the potentially resistant cohort C continues to receive chemotherapy alone or begins to receive bevacizumab if there are no contraindications.
This is a tertiary care hospital-based prospective molecular epidemiology study in Montreal, Canada. When nosocomial transmission was suspected by local infection control teams' investigations, SARS-CoV-2 viral genomic sequencing was performed locally for all putative outbreak cases and contemporary controls. Molecular and conventional epidemiology data were confronted in real time to improve understanding of COVID-19 transmission and reinforce or adapt prevention measures.
Systemic autoinflammatory diseases (SAIDs) are a set of rare clinically and genetically heterogeneous conditions. The project proposes to identify novel genes and specific signatures in subgroups of patients with SAIDs.
a prospective, observational, multi-center study with a cohort of 300 patients with Type 2 diabetes and macroalbuminuria. Prospectively we will collect kidney biopsies and analyse the transciptome of the kidney tissue and other biomarkers from blood, faeces, urine, proteomic- and metabolomic profiles and DNA-variants. Thereby we hope to be able to discover molecular and clinical profiles, that can help us in the diagnosis of DKD, and to identify different risks of progression that can benefit from different forms of personalized treatment.
In the last decades, many advances have been made in the field of genetic abnormalities of glial and glioneuronal brain tumors. In the 2016 World Health organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System, the concept of "integrated" diagnosis emerged: histological and genetic/molecular features now define many entities. Since 2016, six updates have been published by the c-IMPACT-NOW (the Consortium to Inform Molecular and Practical Approaches to CNS Tumor Taxonomy- Not Official WHO) to develop and clarify the "integrated" diagnosis. In the future WHO 2021 Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System, "integrated" diagnoses will take up even more importance. Even if they can have similar histological features, gliomas of children are very different from the "adult" gliomas in the molecular mechanism of oncogenesis. The histomolecular features of adolescents/young adults (AYAs) can have similarities with "pediatric-type" or "adult-type" gliomas, but few studies have focused specifically on the histomolecular profiles of gliomas in AYAs. The investigators would like to study the cohort of patients treated for a glial and glioneuronal tumor diagnosed under the age of 25 in the Amiens University Hospital between 2008 and 2020. The investigators would like to compare the histomolecular profiles of gliomas in children (0-14 years) and AYAs (15-25 years).
This study aims to collect clinical, radiological, pathological, molecular and genetic data including detailed clinical parameters, MR and histopathology images, molecular pathology and genetic data. This study seeks to find the prognostic and clinical significance based on molecular and genetic biomarkers/subgroups of gliomas.
This study will collect data on Canadian cancer patients that have uncommon/rare changes in their tumours, such as alterations/rearrangements in the genetic material inside cells - known as deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, which acts as a map and gives directions to the cells on how to make other substances the body needs - because some of these changes have been found to respond to different drugs that help to stop the cancer. These rare changes occur in genes such as but not limited to ALK, EGFR, ROS1, BRAF, and NTRK which have targeted drugs in a family known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), and KRAS G12C mutation, which now has a targeted inhibitor drug therapy for patients with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goals for the study are to compare the natural history of such cancers and the treatment outcomes, including toxicities and patient-reported outcomes, for the different therapies.
