Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to describe the nature and to estimate the prevalence the health needs of patients with metastatic cancer and their main caregivers, between the period from diagnosis to death. As secondary objectives, the study aims: - to determinate the proportion of patients with an indication for palliative care according to Hui et al., and to describe the adequation of health needs and the services for them; - to study the association between clinical pathway and the indication of targeted palliative care; - to study the association between the integration of palliative care service and the adequation of health needs service of patients; - to study the factors such as the disease, the practice and the care, contribute to the patient's survivor of 1 year.
Consenting subjects will receive a semi-permanent tattoo in place of the standard of care permanent tattoo for radiation marking at the time of the radiation planning scan. Subjects will be monitored to ensure alignment is the same with the semi-permanent tattoo as the current standard of care. Subjects will be monitored to ensure there are no skin reactions or other side effects. Subjects will be followed for 15 months and will send pictures to the treatment team to ensure that the tattoo fades away within 12 months as expected.
Within the proposed single arm multicenter phase-II trial it is intended to investigate the feasi-bility of adding Avelumab to FOLFIRI plus Cetuximab after 4 cycles (2 months) of treatment with FOLFIRI plus Cetuximab. After 4 more cycles of FOLFIRI plus Cetuximab plus Avelumab the treatment will be de-escalated to Avelumab as a maintenance concept until progression of the disease according to RECIST 1.1 has occurred.
This study is a population-based, patient-level analysis of colon and ovarian cancer diagnoses in England over a 2-year period using a dataset created by linking NCRAS and NHS digital datasets. Our analyses will look into inequalities in the diagnostic and treatment pathway, and inequalities in treatment received, for those diagnosed with colon and ovarian cancer between 2016-2017.
This trial studies how well 18F-FDG PET-MRI works for treatment planning in patients with spine tumors. Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-FDG PET-MRI may help radiation oncologists plan the best treatment for spine tumors, as well as help in follow-up after radiation therapy.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of TY-9591 tablets in the treatment of EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain or leptomeningeal metastases.
The MAMETIC Trial represents the first regional epidemiological study that aims to evaluate patients living in Campania with metastatic cancer, with the intent to detect different prevalence of tumors in the metastatic phase and evaluate the local response to the patient's request for assistance. Condition or disease: Metastatic disease Intervention/treatment: Radiation Treatment
This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of adavosertib and how well it works when given in combination with radiation therapy in treating patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer for which no treatment is currently available (incurable). Adavosertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving adavosertib together with radiation therapy kill more tumor cells than radiation therapy alone in treating patients with esophageal and gastroesophageal junction cancer.
Treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation is mainly based on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting EGFR. 1st or 2nd generation inhibitors have been shown to be superior to chemotherapy in terms of Progression-Free Survival (PFS) when used as 1st line treatment. In case of progression at several metastatic sites, systemic treatment will be considered and will depend on the presence of the TKI resistance mutation, the T790M mutation. In the presence of the T790M mutation, osimertinib is superior to chemotherapy in terms of progression-free survival, while in the absence of the T790M mutation, platinum salt chemotherapy is recommended. In case of local progression, treatment of the site in progression by radiotherapy and/or surgery is considered. As these local treatments can cause long-term adverse effects, systemic treatments are increasingly being considered in this indication. Brain and leptomeningeal metastases are the most frequent isolated site of progression in EGFR mutated patients treated with TKI. The high frequency of isolated cerebral and leptomeningeal progression is a consequence of the lower diffusion of 1st and 2nd generation TKIs in the central nervous system (CNS). Osimertinib is a 3rd generation TKI that has the particularity of overcoming the T790M mutation and having greater brain penetration than 1st or 2nd generation TKIs, which could make it an attractive therapeutic option in the event of brain progression or leptomeningeal progression. However, its efficacy in patients with cerebral or leptomeningeal metastases is still poorly understood.
This study will test the safety of the study drug, GDC-0084, in combination with radiation therapy in people who have solid tumor brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases. All participants will have cancer with a PIK3CA mutation. The researchers will test increasing doses of GDC-0084 to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants. The study will also try to find out if the combination of the study drug with radiation is effective against participants' cancer.
