Filter by:The goal of this interventional study is to optimize the protocol of FES PET/CT in Estrogen Receptor positive Breast cancer patients with Brain metastases. Patients will undergo MRI of the brain and FDG PET/CT brain as part of standard of care for radiation treatment planning. An additional 18F-FES PET/CT brain scan will be completed before this standard of care radiation treatment. Patients will be followed prospectively with clinical and MRI assessments per standard-of-care for a total of 12 months. Study Population: Patients with ER-positive breast cancer with biopsy proven or suspected new or recurrent brain metastases (based on standard of care MRI) planned for radiation treatment of brain lesions.
Lymph node metastases are a strong prognostic predictor for pancreatic cancer. Para-aortic lymph nodes (PALN) are the final nodes for periampullary cancers before the cancer cells enter the systemic lymphatic circulation. Some consider these nodes to be regional lymph nodes and dissect them as a part of a routine lymphadenectomy for pancreatic cancer. Others argue that metastases to these nodes represent systemic disease and recommend that radical surgery including extended lymphadenectomy should be abandoned. The aim of this study is to define the incidence and clinical consequences of PALN metastasis in patients submitted to a tentative curative resection for carcinoma of the head of the pancreas by systematically resecting paraaortic lymph nodes. Primary outcome 1) To determine incidence of PALN metastasis in patients submitted to a tentative curative resection Secondary outcomes 1. To determine prognosis of patients with PALN metastasis after a curative resection 2. To determine incidence of metastasis in reginal lymph nodes in patients submitted to a tentative curative resection. 3. To determine prognosis of patients with metastasis in regional lymph nodes in patients submitted to a tentative curative resection. 4. To address the question of how to optimize the frozen section analyses of PALN as related to the final pathology report. 300 patients are planned to be included in the trial.
To compare increasing doses and different treatment schedules of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) against standard treatment scheduling.
This study evaluates the accuracy of blood-based biomarker testing to predict the presence of active testicular cancer.
The purpose of this study is to find out how much tratuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) can penetrate the tumor when injected into the body, and whether T-DXd may be an effective treatment for brain cancers that express the HER2 protein.
The objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that cytoreductive surgery and patient-tailored hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) will increase efficacy in controlling peritoneal disease. Tridimensional cell cultures (organoids) derived from colorectal cancer peritoneal metastases are used to select the most active drugs in an in vitro HIPEC model on individual-patient level, based on the hypothesis that resistance to drug(s) routinely used for intraperitoneal delivery can explain peritoneal relapse after combined treatment, depending on the individual tumor biology;
This is a pilot imaging study in participants treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat brain metastasis. The purpose of this study is to see whether 18F-Fluciclovine positron emission tomography (PET) can be used as a biomarker to measure response or progression of brain metastasis after SRS.
This multi-site, Phase 1/2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype, and the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 when given with select SOC for the treatment of solid tumor patients with radiographically confirmed uncontrolled brain metastasis. The study will have three phases, Phase 1, Phase 2a and Phase 2b.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Sintilimab in Combination With S-1/oxaliplatin With nab-paclitaxel intraperitoneal infusion as First-line Treatment for advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GC/GEJ) adenocarcinoma with malignant ascites
The course and progression of prostate cancer is highly variable, depending on the individual characteristics, the aggressiveness of the disease at the time of diagnosis as well as the ethno-geographic origins of the individuals. The general objective of the project is to identify the clinical, genetic and environmental determinants (risk factors) of the evolution, progression and complications of the disease according to the treatment options. Identifying modifiable and non-modifiable prognostic determinants of disease progression is a major challenge. This knowledge will help guide treatment choices but also, especially in high-risk populations (high incidence of disease) to better tailor prevention policies and possibly screening .
