Filter by:The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the technical success and safety profile of the HistoSonics Investigational System for the treatment of primary solid renal tumors.
Exploratory interventional study of prognostic serum biomarkers of cancer progression. Study of the relationship between the blood levels of soluble PDL1 and β2-microglobulin, and the clinical course of a metastatic solid tumor treated with a first-line therapeutic of checkpoint immune inhibitor.
Urothelial carcinomas of the lower and upper urinary tract can be considered "twin diseases". Much of the current clinical decision-making surrounding Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma (UTUC) is extrapolated from evidence that is based on urothelial carcinoma of bladder patients. The inner wall of the bladder is coated with a substance called glycosaminoglycan (GAG). GAG is known to form a gel-like layer on the apical cell membrane and act as a barrier against urine and pathogens in the lower urinary tract. Currently no published research on the presence of a GAG layer in the upper urinary tract exists. However, literature suggests that the ureteral utothelium can be transduced without enhancers, and the ureteral urothelium may be intrinsically different from bladder, both by the presence or absence of a GAG-layer, by different composition/thickness of the GAG-layer. Any functional differences between the urothelial layers in the bladder and in the upper urinary tract may affect the adeno-virus transduction, which again will have potential impact on future treatment of UTUC patients with a current unmet medical need.
The objective of this study is to understand how patients make decisions about treating their kidney masses, and to identify key values and preferences for treating their kidney masses. The study team will develop a decision aid (DA) using the decision-analytic model to communicate personalized benefit/harm estimates to patients and promote patient-centered treatment of renal tumors.
This is an observational case-control study to train and validate a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform to detect multiple cancer types and to differentiate amongst cancer types. The cancers included in this study are brain, breast, bladder, cervical, colorectal, endometrial, esophageal, gastric, head and neck, hepatobiliary, leukemia, lung, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, renal, sarcoma, and thyroid. These cancers were selected based on their prevalence and mortality to maximize impact on clinical care. Additionally, the ability of the whole-genome methylome enrichment platform to detect minimal residual disease after completion of cancer treatment and to detect relapse prior to clinical presentation will be evaluated in four cancer types (breast, colorectal, lung, prostate). These cancers were selected based on the existing clinical landscape and treatment availability.
The purpose of the study is to find out how patients with advanced kidney cancer have been treated in the hospital district of Southwest Finland over time.
PRO-RCC is a nationwide long-term cohort for the collection of real-world clinical data, patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and patient reported experience measures (PREMs) that provides an infrastructure for observational research and (randomized) interventional studies with the TwiCs (Trial within cohorts) design.
the aim of this study is clarify complication and their resolution in laparoscopic renal and adrenal surgery.
This is a multicenter, exploratory, prospective study to identify angiogenesis and immune-related biomarkers predictive of progression free survival in patients with metastatic or advanced renal cell carcinoma treated by a combination of immunotherapy and antiangiogenic.
The overall study objective of this trial study is to identify and evaluate strategies to improve the accessibility of the video education with result dependent disclosure (VERDI) model, increasingly utilized as a pre-genetic testing (pretest) education alternative in clinical practice, to better serve a more diverse patient population at risk for hereditary cancers.
