Filter by:The aim of the proposed project is to study the long-term impact of adjuvant systemic multi- agent chemotherapy (cisplatin, anthracyclines, vincristine, methotrexate, alkylating agents) in survivors (treated between 1992 and 2014 in UZ Leuven) of paediatric bone or soft tissue sarcomas on neurocognitive functioning.
For gastric patients of Karnofsky scores between 60-80 scores, mFolfox6 is an option for chemotherapy. Neutropenia and oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity are the most common adverse effects which even result in discontinue of chemotherapy, especially for patients suffered from heavily acute neurotoxicity. Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside is a component of membrane of nerve cells. Previous phase II clinical trial showed, it can reduce oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity(OIN). But it did not certificated by phase III trial. A phase III trial is needed to investigate the effect and safety of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium Injection for prevention OIN at gastric cancer.
The morbidity of colorectal cancer(CRC) is 10%～15% in China.mFolfox6 has become one of the standard regimes for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Neutropenia and oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity are the most common adverse effects which even result in discontinue of chemotherapy, especially for patients suffered from heavily acute neurotoxicity. Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside is a component of membrane of nerve cells. Previous phase II clinical trial showed, it can reduce oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity(OIN). But it did not certificated by phase III trial. Investigators designed the phase III trial to investigate the effect and safety of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside Sodium Injection for prevention OIN at colorectal cancer.
Evaluate the efficacy and safety of Monosialoganglioside(GM1) to prevent the neurotoxicity induced by cisplatin
This randomized phase III trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating young patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia that is likely to come back or spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving the drugs in different doses and in different combinations may kill more cancer cells.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients receiving oxaliplatin for cancer may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to neurotoxicity. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying biomarkers in predicting neurotoxicity in patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin.
RATIONALE: Treatment for pediatric extracranial germ cell tumors may cause side effects and secondary cancers later in life. A study that evaluates patients after receiving combination chemotherapy or surgery may help doctors understand the side effects and secondary cancers that occur later in life. PURPOSE: This study is looking at treatment outcome and quality of life in patients with pediatric extracranial germ cell tumors previously treated on clinical trial CCLG-GC-1979-01 or CCLG-GC-1989-01.
RATIONALE: Learning about the relationship between platinum levels in the blood and neurotoxicity in patients receiving oxaliplatin may help plan treatment and may help patients live more comfortably. PURPOSE: This phase IV trial is studying the relationship between platinum levels in the blood and neurotoxicity in patients who are receiving oxaliplatin for gastrointestinal cancer.
