Given the early literature available and its biological plausibility as an inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) protein, it is hypothesized that women with endometrial cancer who take metformin for non-cancer related reasons have a lower cancer recurrence rate compared to women not taking metformin. The primary goal of this study is to determine whether metformin use is associated with a decrease in the rate of endometrial cancer recurrence. Secondary objectives are to assess whether women with endometrial cancer taking metformin have longer progression free survival and overall survival than those that do not take metformin.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GX-I7 in combination with bevacizumab in subjects with recurrent glioblastoma.
To generate meaningful data regarding ctDNA that would infer risk of recurrence in stage III melanoma patients.
The prospective, split-scar, double-blind, randomized controlled study will enroll the patients who are older than 20 years with progressive keloid lesion which is symmetric. Botulinum toxin A will be injected into half of each keloid revision wound immediately after skin closure. The scars will be assessed at 1-year follow-up with Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS), Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS), and the Cutometer.
This phase I/II trial tests the safety, best dose, and whether elimusertib works in treating patients with solid tumors that have come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Elimusertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This study assesses the level of distress felt by cancer patients due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Researchers also want to learn if patients prefer to receive supportive care (palliative care) in person or through telemedicine (visits by phone or video call, such as Zoom). Information from this study may help doctors better understand how COVID-19 has affected patients with advanced cancer, patients' perceptions of telehealth, and may help clinicians tailor care to patients' needs during the pandemic.
This trial that is investigating a medication called duvelisib in combination with docetaxel for the treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) that has returned or spread outside the head and neck area. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: - Duvelisib (PI3K inhibitor) - Docetaxel chemotherapy
This phase II trial the side effects and possible benefits of etigilimab and nivolumab in treating patients with platinum-resistant clear cell ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as etigilimab and nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding etigilimab to nivolumab therapy can help to control clear cell ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers that are resistant to platinum-based therapy.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a heart rhythm disorder associated with debillitating symptoms, psychological distress and heart failure. It can also significantly increase an individuals stroke risk. Catheter ablation (CA) for AF is the most effective way to restore normal heart rhythm. However, AF can recur in up to 50% of patients after their first CA procedure and a second 'top-up' procedure may be needed to maximise effect. Early detection of recurrences can enable planning and treatment and repeat CA procedures. Post-CA follow-up strategies rely on episodic rhythm monitoring (Holter monitor tests) that usually last between 1 and 7 days. However, AF recurrences can be intermittent and may not occur during these short monitoring episodes. A greater duration of monitoring has been shown to yield greater detection of AF recurrences. Relying on symptoms alone to detect recurrence is also sub-optimal. AF recurrences can also be insidious. Similar symptoms may be reported from ectopy, atrial tachycardias or atrial flutter. These may require different management approaches, necessitating rhythm characterisation before considering a repeat CA. The Apple Watch (AW) is a wristwatch that is able to monitor a wearer's heart rate and rhythm regularity as well as facilitating an immediate, real-time single-lead ECG recording. This non-invasive device that can be purchased over- the-counter has demonstrated feasibility in detecting AF and may offer a potential non-invasive, alternative long-term rhythm surveillance strategy to diagnose AF in these patients. The investigators propose a single-centre, randomised controlled study to compare the standard follow-up strategy after index AF CA versus one supplemented with an AW-led prolonged monitoring strategy to determine if the latter will improve the expediency and rate of AF recurrence detection. Whether this will lead to improved downstream decision-making, reduction in symptomatic events and a lower prevalence of AF in the longer term will also be studied.
