Filter by:The aim of this study is to test whether the realization of 3 courses of intra-arterial chemotherapy of idarubicin-lipiodol without embolization, administered non-selectively in the hepatic artery, following the percutaneous tumour ablation of a hepatocellular carcinoma, could constitute an effective adjuvant treatment to reduce the rates of local and intrahepatic distant recurrence and thus improve the survival without hepatic progression.
The purpose of this study is to find out if a new drug, M4344, is safe and has beneficial effects when given in combination with the PARP inhibitor, Niraparib, in women with recurrent ovarian cancer that has progressed while on a PARP inhibitor.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of modified immune cells called CD19-CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in treating patients with CD19 positive(+), CD22+ B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). T-cells are collected from the patient and genetic materials called "chimeric antigen receptors (CAR)" are transferred to the collected T-cells. The CAR T-cells are then infused back to the patient's body. Giving CD19- CD22 CAR T cells after chemotherapy may help to control the disease.
This is a pilot study to test the feasibility of implementing a strict classic ketogenic diet among a population of children with recurrent or progressive and refractory brain tumors. Eligible participants will be admitted to the neurosciences floor for 5 days to begin the ketogenic diet either orally, by gastrostomy tube or via nasogastric tube. During the inpatient stay, they will be extensively educated on the diet restrictions and rules. Participants will then continue on the diet at home returning about 17 times over the next 12 months. Daily logs will be kept tracking diet changes, bowel movements and urine ketones. Blood will be collected during the inpatient stay and at all visits for both standard clinical care and research testing.
Our long-term objective is to evaluate the efficacy of curcumin (CC) in preventing a recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) following surgical evacuation. Recurrence is defined as an increase in total hematoma volume on the operated side compared to a post-operative day one CT scan with persistent or recurrent neurological symptoms. The investigators propose this pilot study to assess feasibility and obtain preliminary benefit assessment of the proposed therapeutic approach. Objective 1: To determine if the use of CC treatment reduces the total hematoma cavity volume over a 6-month interval, compared to a post-subdural drain removal CT scan. This evaluation is expected to offer sufficient evidence for a larger definitive trial. Objective 2: Study the effect of CC on interleukin-8 (IL-8)-induced disruption of endothelial permeability in vitro using human vascular endothelial cells. Central hypothesis: CC treatment prevents the re-accumulation of cSDH, which may occur by inhibition of IL-8 and allowing resolution of the total hematoma cavity volume over six months.
A study of second-line treatment of postoperative recurrence and metastasis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after chemotherapy with apatinib mesylate
Researchers are trying to see if the Nvision® Imaging System (VLE) can accurately determine the risk of recurrent Barrett's esophagus in patients with Barrett's esophagus which have been clear of disease.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represent approximately 70-85% of liver cancer, in which Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the major etiologic agent accounting for at least 80% of HCC in Asian countries. Overall, transplantation remains the best option however, HCC recurrence rate is high among liver transplant patients. While there are limited treatment measures for HBV-related HCC recurrences, the study hypothesized that LioCyx is capable of lysing target liver cells expressing the HBV cognate antigens and provide clinical benefit to patients with HBV-related HCC.
This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial looking to determine the role of prophylactic treatment with topical corticosteroids in preventing recurrences in patients with a history of infectious epithelial keratitis, stromal keratitis,endotheliitis, or iridocyclitis. Patients will be enrolled to one of two treatment arms: Control arm: oral acyclovir 400 mg BID OR valacyclovir 500 mg daily or Study arm: oral acyclovir 400 mg BID OR valacyclovir 500 mg qdaily + topical corticosteroid eye drops.
