Filter by:Objective: To prospectively evaluate clinical outcomes during guideline-recommended LMWH dose escalation for recurrent VTE during LMWH or DOAC treatment for cancer-associated thrombosis. Study design: International, prospective, observational cohort study Study population: Adult cancer patients with symptomatic or incidental recurrent VTE while receiving LMWH or DOACs for acute VTE are eligible. Main exclusion criteria include anticoagulant treatment for the recurrent VTE for more than 72 hours, severe hepatic dysfunction, active bleeding, recent major surgery, uncontrolled hypertension, known bleeding diathesis, and a life expectancy of less than 1 month. Study procedures: Patients will be managed at the discretion of the treating physician, who will be encouraged to follow guideline recommendations. These guidelines suggest supra-therapeutic dose LMWH for 4 weeks (+/- 5 days) followed by therapeutic dose LMWH or therapeutic dose DOAC, while it is suggested to treat patients with VTE recurrence during maintenance dose LMWH (i.e. 75 to 80% of full therapeutic weight adjusted dose) with therapeutic dose of LMWH or DOAC. Main study parameters/endpoints: The co-primary outcomes are new symptomatic or incidental recurrent VTE during 3 months of follow-up and on-treatment major bleeding. Secondary outcomes include recurrent incidental VTE, recurrent symptomatic VTE, recurrent incidental or symptomatic proximal or distal DVT, recurrent incidental or symptomatic PE, clinically relevant non-major bleeding, all-cause mortality, and cancer-related mortality. VTE occurring at other sites such as cerebral DVT or splanchnic DVT will also be recorded.
Study to assess venetoclax + azacitidine and donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with blasts < 30% in relapse after allohematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT).
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common abnormal heart rhythm(arrhythmia) affecting about one in 40 people in England. Patients with AF often have symptoms ranging from palpitations and breathlessness, and a small number of patients may develop heart failure. The major complication of AF is stroke, and this is effectively treated with blood thinning medications (anticoagulation). AF symptoms can lead to significant decline in quality of life and can affect patients' ability to work and exercise. There are numerous treatments targeted at maintaining normal rhythm and preventing AF recurrence. These include medications and catheter ablation. Ablation has been shown to be more effective than medications for the long-term control of AF, but its efficacy is significantly reduced by upstream conditions such as high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, and poor fitness levels. This results in increased complications, repeat procedures, and increased AF recurrence or patients. Research currently available has shown that intensive risk factor control with weight loss and increased fitness can reduce AF burden and improve results from ablation. However, achieving these targets outside of a clinical trial have been challenging. Recent data has shown that a new class of drug (Liraglutide) can result in significant weight loss over a 3-month period, and pre-treatment prior to liver transplant has improved results and patient recovery. The overall aim of this study is to determine if accelerated weight loss by Liraglutide before AF ablation is feasible to base a future trial to inform if this approach improves outcomes and can be safely adopted into routine clinical practice.
This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label pivotal phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EAL as adjuvant therapy in preventing recurrence in patients with primary HCC at high recurrence risk after radical resection.
Phase I Part : Confirm the safety of GAIA-102 alone or GAIA-102 with pembrolizumab for advanced / relapse non-small cell lung cancer, and decide recommended dose for Phase II. Phase II Part : Explore the efficacy and safety of GAIA-102 alone or GAIA-102 with pembrolizumab for advanced / relapse non-small cell lung cancer at the recommended dose of GAIA-102 decided in the Phase I part.
This phase II trial studies the effect of zanubrutinib and CAR T-cell therapy in treating patients with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or transformed indolent B-cell lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Zanubrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. T cells are infection fighting blood cells that can kill tumor cells. The T cells given in this study will come from the patient and will have a new gene put in them that makes them able to recognize CAR, a protein on the surface of cancer cells. These CAR-specific T cells may help the body's immune system identify and kill cancer cells. Giving zanubrutinib together with CAR T-cell therapy may kill more cancer cells.
Paraesophageal hernia causes pain, heartburn, regurgitation, anemia and in extreme, life-threatening strangulation. For symptomatic patients, laparoscopic surgery is offered which includes hiatal defect closure and antireflux surgery. However, recurrence rates are high between 12 and 42%. In order to reduce recurrences, mesh has been used with various materials and techniques with conflicting results. Non-absorbable mesh has been linked with adverse events including erosion of esophageal wall. Traditionally used biological mesh materials are expensive and therefore problematic in routine use. Use of polyglactin (Vicryl®) mesh, which degrades in 6-8 week, has been reported in paraesophageal hernia surgery. Previously, no randomized controlled trial comparing sutures only and polyglactin mesh has been performed. In this trial, the aim was to randomize total of 110 patients to receive sutures only or mesh repair. Primary outcome was recurrence of paraesophageal hernia at 6 months after the repair based on computed tomography scan. Secondary outcomes included symptomatic recurrences, reoperation rate, quality of life, reoperations up to 20-years after surgery and use of proton pump inhibitors up to 20-years after surgery.
This is a national, open-label, single-arm, multicenter phase II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of adding gilteritinib, a new FLT3 inhibitor to the AGORA platform, consisting of the combination of an intermediate dose of cytarabine and a divided dose of GO in adult patients with R / R AML with an FLT3-ITD mutation.
The reirradiation of thoracic tumor is difficult. The possibility of surgery or re course radiotherapy is very small. In the NCCN guideline, only systemic treatment is recommended. However, the effective rate of systemic treatment is low. SBRT has the characteristics of high dose in tumor target area and low dose in surrounding normal tissues. In theory, SBRT is more conducive to the protection of normal tissues and can potentially be used in the salvage treatment of recurrent lesions after radiotherapy. Even so, SBRT is still controversial in the rescue treatment of recurrent lung cancer after radiotherapy, especially for "ultral-central" lesions close to mediastinal structures (such as bronchus, esophagus and large blood vessels), which have a high probability of fatal side effects. However, a few studies on the application of SBRT in the reirradiation for ultral-central lung cancer have shown acceptable safety and efficacy. Generally speaking, there are few studies on SBRT in the treatment of recurrent ultral-central tumor with limited data. The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the efficacy and toxicities of SBRT in the treatment of recurrent ultral-central tumors after radiotherapy.
