Filter by:Prostate cancer screening with PSA is plagued by high rate of unnecessary prostate biopsies, especially in the "gray zone" (4.00ng/ml e 10.99ng/ml). We introduce a new circulating-tumor-cell (CTC) biomarker for detection of prostate cancer in patients in the PSA "gray zone" level, with the clinically verified potential to substantially decrease the number of unnecessary prostate biopsies.
Response evaluation with FDG-PET and free circulating DNA in patients with inoperable lung cancer of non small cell type during first treatment with chemotherapy or immunotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess clinical utility of combined circulating tumor cell (CTC) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the diagnosis of primary lung cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of the sequence of vessel interruption in lung cancer patients on tumor cell spread and patient survival by using peripheral blood circulating tumor cells.
The primary objective of this study is designed to evaluate the enumeration of circulating tumor cells and identify the potential biomarkers associated with clinical outcome. The secondary objective is to explore whether the changes of tumor related rare cells associates clinical outcome.
Identification of biomarkers (Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC), free DNA, Stem Cells and EMT-related antigens) that may be predictive of outcome of activity of cabazitaxel treatment in castration-resistant prostate cancer.
This multicentre, prospective and randomized study aims(1:1) to compare the rate of recurrence, metastasis and survival according to the levels of intraoperative circulating tumor cells (CTCs) during cephalic duodenopancreatectomy in patients with pancreatic and periampullary tumors.
To determine whether the presence of circulating/disseminated tumor cells (CTCs/DTCs) in the blood and bone marrow of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with localized disease is a negative prognostic factor, and to find correlations with other clinical/pathological disease characteristics.
Resection of liver metastasis is potentially curative in patients with colorectal cancer bearing liver metastasis. However, early recurrence occurs in up to 30% in 3 months after liver resection. To optimize patient selection, the investigators propose to evaluate the the value of incorporating circulating tumor cells enumeration to clinical factors in a prospective study
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the impact on progression-free survival (PFS) with the combination carboplatin - pembrolizumab in patients with CTC (circulating tumor cells) positive, HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer previously treated with anthracyclines and taxanes. Previous studies have indicated that recurrent breast cancers are more resistant to chemotherapy and maybe associated with a weak immune system. This study is investigating the use of an immune therapy drug, pembrolizumab, that has the ability to restore the capacity of controlling and killing cancer cells of an important component of your immune system called T-cells. Pembrolizumab has been found effective in other types of cancer and has already been approved by FDA for those indications, but the efficacy in breast cancer is still unknown. In this study, pembrolizumab will be combined with chemotherapy to increase the cancer cell killing. There is no control or placebo treatment in this study.
