Filter by:92 female cancer patients, aged from 18 to 75 years old (with a first diagnosis of breast cancer) who will receive Paclitaxel-based chemotherapy (12 weeks) as first line therapy, will be enrolled in the study and will be randomly assigned to either: - Group I: will receive the chemotherapy protocol or - Group II: will receive the chemotherapy protocol plus 600 mg daily dose of Alpha Lipoic Acid for 14 weeks (one week before the start of paclitaxel and continue till one week after the end of paclitaxel). * Blood samples will be withdrawn 2 times (week 1 and week 12) to measure the following: (Stored in -80 C till the end of the study) - Tumor Necrotizing Factor- alpha (TNF-α) by ELISA. - Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) by ELISA. * All patients will be subjected to 6 tests/questionnaires (week 1 - week 12 - week 24) to predict the functionality of the brain: - Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cognitive (FACT-Cog) version 3 - Mini-Cog Test - Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) - Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT) - Hopkins Verbal Learning Test (HVLT) - Trail Making Test (TMT)
Primary objective of this trial is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of paclitaxel combined with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m2) delivered as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with ovarian cancer. In this single-center Phase I trial, Bayesian Optimal Interval Design (TITE-BOIN) was used. The starting dose for paclitaxel was 175 mg/m2, with escalation in 25 mg/m2 increments until the MTD was determined or the maximum dose level of 225 mg/m2 was reached. The target dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate was 25%, and the total sample size was 30 patients.
IPXELOX will investigate the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of intraperitoneal paclitaxel in combination with chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis. Study hypotheses: Intraperitoneal paclitaxel administered to subjects at the recommended phase 2 dose will show manageable safety and tolerability and anti-tumor efficacy with systemic capecitabine and oxaliplatin in advanced gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis.
This randomized, double-blind, 2-arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chiauranib plus weekly paclitaxel versus placebo plus weekly paclitaxel in patients with Platinum-refractory or Platinum-resistant Recurrent ovarian cancer.
The objective of this all-comers registry is to explore the safety, efficacy, and cost-efficiency of the LUMINOR© DEB in de-novo and restenotic-FP lesions. For de-novo and restenotic lesions, especially for calcified and/or long lesions/occlusions, the use of debulking devices to improve recalibration and drug penetration will be evaluated in a specific sub-group.
