Filter by:Trial Hypothesis: Acute, progressing lethal neurooncological process can be transferred into chronic and non-lethal, the survival rates and life quality can be improved by of control of tumor cells (TCs) quantity and targeted regulation of effector functions of tumor stem cells (TSCs). Brief Description: The first line therapy of brain metastases of lung cancer (BMLC) involves allogeneic haploidentical hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), dendritic vaccine (DV) and cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTLs). TCs and TSCs are isolated from BMLC sample. Dendritic cells are isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and cultured. Tumor sample provides tumor specific antigens to prepare DV. CTLs are obtained from peripheral blood after DV administrations. HSCs are harvested from closely related donor after granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) administration. Allogeneic HSCs are administered intrathecally 5 times every 2 weeks, at day 1, 14, 28, 42, 56. DV is given 3 times every 2 weeks (day 14, 28, 42) subcutaneously in four points. CTLs are administered every 2 weeks for 3 months, then 3 times every 1 month intrathecally. Six months after the therapy completion, the efficiency is evaluated and the cohort demonstrating efficiency continues the therapy, while cohort demonstrating no efficiency is transferred to active comparator arm. Second line therapy involves DV with recombinant proteins, CTLs and autologous HSC with modified proteome. Autologous HSCs are mobilized by G-CSF. Carcinogenesis-free intracellular pathways of signal transduction able to respond to targeted regulation of therapeutic cell systems with specific properties, are detected in TSCs using complete transcriptome profiling of gene expression, proteome mapping and profiling of proteins, bioinformation and mathematical analysis and mathematical modeling of protein profiles. To find key oncospecific proteins in TSCs and TCs, the targets for TSCs regulation are detected, as well as protein ligands able to regulate reproductive and proliferative properties of TSCs. Using these data of TCs and TSCs proteins, the cell preparations to initiate adoptive immune response are prepared: DV loaded with recombinant proteins analogous to key tumor antigens, CTLs and autologous proteome-based HSCs. Autologous proteome-modified HSCs, DV and CTLs are administered as in the first line therapy.

Brief Description: The first line therapy of brain metastases of breast cancer (BMBC) involves allogeneic haploidentical hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), dendritic vaccine (DV) and cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTLs). TCs and TSCs are isolated from BMBC sample. Dendritic cells are isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and cultured. Tumor sample provides tumor specific antigens to prepare DV.

The aim of this study is to reduce the length of stay after liver surgery by taking account of objective quantitative clinical variables, subjective qualitative clinical variables and non clinical variables.
Magnetic Resonance guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) has demonstrated to be effective for pain control through thermally-induced cell death and periosteal denervation caused by cortical heating relative to acoustic energy absorption. There is also evidence that a high intensity focused ultrasound beam can penetrate through the cortical bone to the medullary space, producing thermal necrosis of cancer tissue. However, little is known about the potential effects of MRgFUS as first line therapeutic modality for pain palliation in skeletal metastases. Our hypothesis sought to assess the clinical performance of MRgFUS primary treatment of painful bone metastases and determine the potential of this technique for local tumor control.
It is uncertain, whether hilar lymphadenectomy should be performed routinely in patients undergoing resection of colorectal liver metastases. For this reason it is the aim of the present prospective randomized trial to evaluate, if routine lymphadenectomy reduces recurrent disease in patients undergoing resection of colorectal liver metastases.
