Filter by:Various drugs have been added to different treatment regimens in order to improve the response rate in patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, however, it has been shown that adding Bortezomib to the relapsing regimen improves the proportion of second complete remissions without increasing chemotherapy toxicity. Therefore, proteasome inhibitors can drastically modify the prognosis of patients, since their synergy with drugs such as steroids has positioned them as an attractive strategy.
This study will expand the types of pediatric cancers being evaluated for response to cabozantinib. The current COG study is restricted to Ewing sarcoma, osteosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, Wilms tumor, and a handful of uncommon tumors. The proposed study will extend this evaluation to tumors that have been shown to either express known targets of cabozantinib or with preclinical evidence of efficacy, including specifically neuroblastomas. These tumors have high morbidity and mortality, particularly in the relapse setting, and few or no proven therapeutic options. As such, evaluation of cabozantinib in these studies is warranted. The study hypothesizes that use of cabozantinib in patients with ultra-high-risk pediatric solid tumors with minimal disease burden, as defined in the inclusion criteria below, can prevent and/or slow recurrent tumor formation in pediatric solid tumors and thereby significantly extend the period of disease control and/or induce a durable cure.
BACKGROUND: Anaphylaxis is the most severe form of allergy that rapidly affects multiple body systems and can be deadly. The highest incidence of anaphylaxis is in children and adolescents. In Canada, approximately every 10 minutes there is an Emergency Department (ED) visit for food allergy, and up to 80% of anaphylactic reactions in children are triggered by food. The ambiguity in how physicians manage anaphylaxis adds a huge burden to health care and further contributes to ED crowding. Current Canadian and international treatment guidelines universally recommend that all patients present to the ED for a prolonged period (6-24 hours) of in-hospital monitoring after initial reactions have been treated, to increase detection of biphasic anaphylaxis (BA). BA is a second wave of symptoms after initial resolution. These guidelines are based on poor or little evidence and have unintended negative impacts on patient safety and quality of life. Furthermore, this 'one-size fits all' approach to care leads to wasteful resource utilization that provides low value care. OBJECTIVE: The main objective of the study is to derive a clinical prediction rule that identifies children with anaphylaxis who are at risk of BA. METHODS: This prospective multicenter cohort study will enroll 1682 patients from 7 pediatric EDs that are members of the Pediatric Emergency Research Canada (PERC) network. We will enroll patients < 18 years of age presenting to the ED with an allergic reaction that matches the diagnostic criteria of anaphylaxis. Research assistants (RA) present in the ED will screen, obtain consent, and prospectively collect all study data. The Research Assistant or Research Nurse will follow patients during their ED visit and ascertain, in conjunction with the medical team, if the patient developed biphasic anaphylaxis in the ED. A standardized follow-up survey conducted within 2-5 days of ED or hospital discharge will determine if a biphasic reaction occurred following ED disposition. We established an advisory council comprised of end-users and community partners external to the project team to monitor project milestones. STUDY TEAM: We have established an international multidisciplinary team of experts in pediatrics, emergency medicine, allergy/immunology, research methodology and statistics, and knowledge translation. Our team is supported by the PERC network. EXPECTED OUTCOME: Providing the best evidence-based, value care at the lowest cost is a moral and ethical imperative. Therefore, in alignment with national and international research priorities, we propose to develop a robust prediction model for BA. This model will address a significant gap in current knowledge and practice, with anticipated benefit for patient care and health system efficiency worldwide. This trial will generate novel, clinically relevant data on optimal ED management of children with anaphylaxis that integrates best value care with patient safety.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of MRG003 in patients with recurrent metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Randomized, post-market multi-center study investigating the efficacy of two sets of treatment algorithms in brain metastases (BM) patients at the time of first intervention for radiographic progression after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), with or without surgery.
This is a retrospective and prospective non-interventional multicenter observational study. Neither diagnostic approaches nor experimental drugs/procedure will be applied and the samples will take place at the same time as the samples will be taken during routinary clinical practice. The aim of this study is to analyze the immunobiology of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) relapses after allogeneic HSCT for the generation of guidelines and personalized therapeutic pathways.
The primary objective of this trial is to investigate whether thermal ablation EMR with soft tip snare coagulation (STSC) reduces the recurrence rate of lateral spreading or sessile polyps ≥20mm compared to standard EMR.
Objective is to assess changes of dentition and periodontium, and hygiene in retention after the end of the active phase of orthodontic treatment, and relationship with gender, type of retention appliance, pre-therapeutic condition of dentition and duration of active phase of treatment.
This is a randomized, double-blind, controlled and multi-center Phase III clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ASC40 tablets combined with bevacizumab in the treatment of adult patients with recurrent glioblastoma. After standard radiotherapy and chemotherapy (temozolomide), the subject first experienced clinical recurrence or progression.
The study investigators hypothesize that the intervention of case managers specifically trained in case management of early psychosis will change the paradigm of care of a first psychotic episode from the current organization of the care system. Indeed, the creation of specific services for emerging psychotic disorders cannot easily be generalized throughout the country and requires specific funding. The intervention of case managers according to the recommendations of good practices will make it possible to propose the fundamental principles of early intervention to young patients and their families on a large scale throughout the territory, namely: personalized and proactive accompaniment, psycho-education of the pathology and treatments, involvement and support of the families, and support for socio-professional reintegration
