Filter by:Standard of care for the management of symptomatic chronic subdural hematomas (SDHs) is neurosurgical burr-hole evacuation followed by drainage. Post-operative recurrence rates may be as high as 10 to 20 %. In particular, recurrence rate increases with antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy. Middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization has been proposed as a novel treatment of chronic SDH. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of MMA embolization in reducing the risk of chronic SDH recurrence at 6 months after burr-hole surgery as compared with standard medical post-operative treatment in patients at high risk of post-operative recurrence.
This project aims to establish the cancer genome atlas and the platform of recurrence risk prediction specific for East Asian breast cancer patients. The study was planned to collect blood sample, fresh tumor tissue, and paraffin embedded tumor tissue from 2000 patients. Aims to identify unique genetic alterations in Asian tumors, to identify the susceptible genes for breast carcinogenesis in East Asia, and to establish the new platform for accurate prediction of recurrence. The investigator will explore the association of patient outcomes with the genetic alterations from the cancer atlas of East Asian breast tumors.
This phase 2 trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining immunotherapy with a PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor (Pembrolizumab), an anti-VEGF receptor (Ramucirumab), and a taxane chemotherapy (Docetaxel) in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who did not respond to FDA-approved treatments with platinum-based chemotherapy given concurrently or sequentially with anti-PD1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. Pembrolizumab helps the body's immune system to attack cancer cells and hinder their ability to grow and spread. Ramucirumab blocks new blood vessel growth to reduce tumor growth. Docetaxel works mainly by stopping cancer cells from dividing. Ramucirumab combined with docetaxel is an FDA-approved therapy for NSCLC patients after progression on platinum-based chemotherapy. It has shown to improve efficacy compared to docetaxel alone in this setting. Pembrolizumab is an FDA-approved treatment for NSCLC and can be given alone or in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy. Investigators hypothesize that the combination of docetaxel, ramucirumab, and pembrolizumab will be safe and more effective than the current standard of care treatments (docetaxel alone or in combination with ramucirumab) in patients with metastatic or recurrent NSCLC after progression on treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy and immunotherapy, given concurrently or sequentially.
This phase I trial studies the side effects of nivolumab before and after surgery in treating children and young adults with high grade glioma that has come back (recurrent) or is increasing in scope or severity (progressive). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This phase II trial studies how well cemiplimab before surgery works in treating patients with skin cancer that is high-risk and has not spread to other parts of the body (localized), has come back locally (locally recurrent), or has spread regionally (regionally advanced), and can be removed by surgery (resectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as cemiplimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This is an open-label, multi-center, phase I study designed to assess the maximum tolerated dose of ribociclib and belinostat in combination. The trial will open with a dose escalation followed by an expansion cohort at the identified dose. Dose escalation will be open to the enrollment of patients diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer or ovarian cancer. Dose expansion will only be open to patients diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer.
This study is designed to evaluate if how people are told to return to walking after a skin injury affects whether or not they develop new (recurrence) skin breakdown on their feet. The people in this study will have diabetes and have a recently closed foot ulcer. About half will be specifically told how to return to walking and the other half will be told to return to walking slowly. How people naturally return to walking will also be established.
This early phase I trial studies the side effects of a vaccine called CIMAvax-EGF and to see how well it works in preventing lung cancer from developing in patients at high risk for lung cancer or coming back (recurrence) in stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer survivors. In many cancers such as lung cancer, there is a protein receptor called EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) that is overexpressed within these cancers. Activation of EGFR has shown to lead to tumor growth and development. Previous studies have indicated that EGFR activation is present in the airways of cancer-free subjects as well. CIMAvax-EGF vaccine works by causing the body to make antibodies against EGF that is being produced that could be possibly driving the risk for developing cancer.
Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is prevalent in the hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection endemic areas. For early stage of HCC, surgical resection, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or microwave ablation (MWA) are the main treatment options. However, the risk of recurrence is as high as 50% in 5 years by surgical resection or 60-70% in 5 years by RFA. In average, the recurrence rate of HCC at 2 years is 30%. Many factors are associated with the HCC recurrence, including HBV viral load, cirrhotic stage, tumor size, tumor number, vascular invasion, alpha-fetoprotein(AFP) level and so on. Of them, high HBV viral load is associated with the risk of HCC recurrence after surgical resection, especially on late recurrence. In one previous randomized controlled trial, patients who received lamivudine, adefovir dipivoxil, or entecavir had significantly decreased early recurrence of HCC, however, whether nucleos(t)ide analogues(NUCs) can further reduce the risk of recurrence in patients with low viral loads (<2000 IU/ml) is still unclear. In EASL 2017 guideline, all patients with compensated or decompensated cirrhosis need antiviral treatment, with any detectable HBV DNA level and regardless of alanine aminotransferase(ALT) levels. In Taiwan, even in chronic hepatitis B(CHB) infection patients with HCC, NUC is not reimbursed if their HBV viral load was less than 2000 IU/ml. It is an important unmet medical need to understanding the role of TAF in reducing the risk of recurrence in HBV-HCC patients with low HBV viral load (HBV DNA<2000 IU/ml) and significant liver fibrosis after curative treatment (The definition of significant liver fibrosis was based on reference. In our recent retrospective study, the risk of recurrence and survival are comparable between patients with and without NUCs treatment before HCC development only if NUCs treatment can be provided after curative treatment of HCC. However, a higher risk of recurrence was observed in cirrhotic patients with prior NUCs treatment before HCC occurrence. It would be interesting to investigate the incidence of recurrence by switching to tenofovir alafenamide(TAF) after curative treatment of HCC in patients already on NUCs treatment.
This is an open-label, four-cohort, phase 2 study to determine the efficacy of CART19 in pediatric and young adult patientswith hypodiploid (Cohort A) or t(17;19) B-ALL (Cohort B), infants with very high risk KMT2A B-ALL (Cohort C), and in patients with central nervous system (CNS) relapse who did not receive cranial radiation (XRT) or bone marrow transplantation (BMT) (Cohort D).
