Filter by:Detection of the potential oncogenic role of Engrailed-2 in epithelial ovarian neoplasms, in order to detect biological markers that could be targeted and blocked by new medications.
This is a prospective, open-label, dose escalation Phase 1 study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the following objectives in patients with advanced solid tumors after failure of standard of care.
Cancer patients will be recruited from the Taipei Cancer Center of Taipei Medical University. This study was divided into two phases. The first phase adopted cross-sectional study design with questionnaires to analyze the potential predictors of depressive symptoms among cancer patients. The second stage was adopted experimental study design to explore the effectiveness of nurse navigators in cancer care.
Mitomycin-C (MMC) is the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agent for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) to treat colorectal cancer patients with peritoneal metastases. However, MMC has a side effect of myelosuppression. Particularly, severe neutropenia after CRS with HIPEC can be a life-threatening condition. Despite the postoperative risks of this side effect, the causes and risk factors for severe neutropenia after CRS followed by HIPEC is not identified so far. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to evaluate to evaluate clinical risk factors and pharmacologic properties after CRS with HIPEC using MMC in patients with colorectal cancer or appendiceal mucinous neoplasms with peritoneal metastases.
This is a Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary efficacy of IO-108 monotherapy and in combination with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody pembrolizumab or tislelizumab in adult patients with advanced solid tumors. The study will be conducted in 3 parts, including Part A IO-108 monotherapy dose confirmation; Part B IO-108 + anti-PD-1 dose confirmation, and Part C dose expansion.
This prospective study aims to assess the safety and feasibility of lymph node identification using bevacizumab-800CW in patients with cT1-3N0-2 tumours, using peritumoral submucosal injections
This prospective study aims to assess the safety and feasibility of lymph node identification using bevacizumab-800CW in patients with cT1-3N0-2 tumours, using intravenous administration.
This study aims to analyse retrospectively the feasibility, the safety, and the efficiency, of biliary or digestive protection with room air interposition for thermal ablation of central liver tumors with high iatrogenic risk. Thermal ablation is a mini-invasive and curative treatement of liver tumors. However, it requires to be carefull about surrunding organs, such as digestive structures or central biliary tree, which can be injured if not insulated. The technique of gas interposition to protect adjacent gut is already known and validated with carbonic gas. Nevertheless, resorption of this gas is very fast, making its use tricky to keep a correct insulation during the whole thermal ablation process. Room air interposition is easy to use and can offer a slow resorption speed. Furthermore no datas are available concerning the use of room air whatever the organ protected, and the protection of central biliary tree whatever the gas used.
Pathologic complete response (pCR) after multimodal treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients is considered as the gold-standard of treatment success as it is associated to privileged oncologic outcome. Nevertheless, data from multicenter high-volume cohorts with long term follow-up are scarce. This is a multicenter observational study using prospectively collected data from the Spanish Rectal Cancer Project database. The main objective of the study is to update long-term oncologic follow-up of those patients treated for LARC with nCRT and surgery (either TME or subtotal TME; S-TME) who had obtained a pCR. Secondary objective is to analyze demographic, clinical, operative and treatment variables in search of related factors to adverse oncologic outcomes, like distant recurrence or tumor-related deaths. The results are reported in accordance with the STROBE (STrengthening the Reporting of OBservational studies in Epidemiology) Statement for observational studies. All calculations are performed using Stata 13.1 (StataCorp, Texas, USA).
This work seeks to understand current clinical workflow practice and validate use cases for NAVIFY Oncology Hub. The main purpose of NAVIFY Oncology Hub is to enhance clinical and operational effectiveness, from diagnostic workup to treatment planning and management. This might free up providers' time and capacity to provide better and more personalized care to patients. This research protocol builds on previous work that validated clinical simulation methods as a means for clinicians to generate useful insights during the testing and development of digital health tools (Gardner et al. 2020). Accordingly, this study aims to test the ability of NAVIFY Oncology Hub to increase the work efficiency of oncologists and reduce the cognitive burden/mental fatigue associated with patient care and decision-making. The insights generated will be used to guide the development of NAVIFY Oncology Hub and optimise user experience, as well as provide a better understanding of the opportunities for it to have maximal impact in the decision-making process.
